The episode as NWS RAH wrote it up.
A persistent upper level trough shifted closer to Central North Carolina and resulted in another day of scattered convection as multiple upper level disturbances moved over the region. One of the storms produced damaging wind gusts.

NWS Raleigh, NC wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Jun 12, 2:06 PM EST, 2 hours 2 minutes earlier.
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE RALEIGH NC 306 PM EDT THU JUN 12 2014 .SYNOPSIS... AN UPPER LEVEL TROUGH WILL CONTINUE TO SLOWLY APPROACH AND CROSS THE AREA THROUGH FRIDAY. A COLD FRONT WILL MOVE ACROSS OUR REGION LATE FRIDAY INTO SATURDAY. THE FRONT WILL THEN STALL JUST SOUTH OF THE AREA OVERNIGHT WEEKEND. && .NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/... AS OF 300 PM THURSDAY... MOIST SOUTHERLY FLOW CONTINUES OVER CENTRAL NC AHEAD OF A SLOW MOVING UPPER TROUGH NEAR THE SOUTHERN APPALACHIANS....WITH OBSERVED PW OVER 2 INCHES AND LCL TO FREEZING LEVEL DEPTH AROUND 10K FT. SO FAR TODAY...SHOWERS AND STORMS HAVE BEEN FOCUS OVER THE COASTAL PLAIN BUT THE BULK TO THE CONVECTION IS NOW MOVING OFF TOWARD SOUTHEAST VA. MID-LEVEL LAPSE RATES ARE WEAK BUT DEWPOINTS IN THE UPPER 60S AND LOWER 70S STILL SUPPORT UP TO 1500 J/KG MLCAPE...GREATEST ACROSS THE SOUTHERN PIEDMONT AND SANDHILLS WHERE HEATING HAS BEEN STRONGEST. WATER VAPOR IMAGERY SHOWS SOME DRIER AIR MID-LEVEL AIR MOVING INTO THE SOUTHERN/WESTERN PORTIONS OF THE AREA WITH A SHORTWAVE LIFTING ACROSS UPSTATE SC...WHERE A CLUSTER OF STORMS CURRENTLY EXTENDS FROM WEST OF CLT TO NEAR CAE. GIVEN SOME ADDITIONAL DESTABILIZATION IN THE NEXT COUPLE OF HOURS AND DCAPE...ALONG WITH THE AFOREMENTIONED UPPER FORCING...A FEW ISOLATED SEVERE STORMS STILL SEEM POSSIBLE...PARTICULARLY ACROSS THE SOUTHERN PIEDMONT. THE PASSAGE OF THE UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE AND LOSS OF HEATING WILL BRING MOST CONVECTION TO AN END BY MIDNIGHT. FOG WILL BE POSSIBLE AGAIN LATE TONIGHT...ESPECIALLY IN EASTERN AREAS WHERE RAIN HAS FALLEN TODAY. LOWS IN THE UPPER 60S AND LOWER 70S. && .SHORT TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT/... AS OF 300 PM THURSDAY... FRIDAY... THE SHORTWAVE CROSSING THE AREA TONIGHT WILL WILL LIFT OFF TO THE NORTHEAST...SHIFTING THE AXIS OF 2 INCH PW OFFSHORE. HOWEVER...THE MEAN TROUGH AXIS WILL REMAIN WEST OF THE AREA AS AN MCV ASSOCIATED WITH CONVECTION OVER THE LOWER MISSOURI RIVER VALLEY WEAKENS APPROACHING THE SOUTHERN APPALACHIANS. THE LEE TROUGH WILL BE THE PRIMARY FOCUS FOR CONVECTION DURING THE AFTERNOON...WITH SOME ADDITIONAL AID FROM THE APPROACHING UPPER TROUGH. MODEST MLCAPE OF 1000-1500 J/KG SHOULD DEVELOP AGAIN...STRONGEST IN THE EAST WHERE DEWPOINTS WILL REMAIN THE UPPER 60S. SHEAR WILL AGAIN BE WEAK...SO THE SEVERE POTENTIAL SHOULD BE ISOLATED WITHIN THE MAINLY SCATTERED COVERAGE BY MID AFTERNOON. HIGHS IN THE MID TO UPPER 80S. FRIDAY NIGHT... PASSING SHORTWAVE WILL BRAW SOME DRIER...MORE STABLE AIR INTO THE AREA FROM THE NORTH-NORTHWEST OVERNIGHT AS THE LEE TROUGH IS SHUNTED SOUTH AND EAST. LOW LEVEL CONVERGENCE AND POOLING OF HIGHER DEWPOINT AIR ACROSS THE SOUTH MAY LEAD TO SOME ISOLATED SHOWERS OVERNIGHT...BUT FOR THE MOST PART THE CWA WILL BE DRY. LOWS IN THE MID TO UPPER 60S. SATURDAY THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT... SURFACE BOUNDARY WHICH WILL DRIFT SWD FRIDAY NIGHT/EARLY SATURDAY PROJECTED TO LIE IN VICINITY OF SC BORDER SATURDAY. THIS SFC BOUNDARY BEING PROPELLED SWD BY A NORTHERN STEAM S/W PASSING NORTH OF THE REGION. MODEL GUIDANCE HAS LEANED TOWARD A SLIGHTLY DRIER MORE STABLE AIR MASS INFILTRATING THE NORTHERN COUNTIES SATURDAY BUT WEAK FLOW WILL LIKELY LIMIT MUCH FARTHER ADVANCEMENT INTO THE SANDHILLS/SOUTHERN COASTAL PLAIN SATURDAY NIGHT INTO SUNDAY. WITH A MODEST UPPER LEVEL ANTI-CYCLONE SETTING UP OVER VA...ASSOCIATED SUBSIDENCE WILL LIKELY SQUELCH CONVECTIVE CHANCES ACROSS THE FAR NORTH. THUS...APPEARS BEST CHANCE FOR CONVECTION WILL BE CONFINED TO THE SOUTHERN COUNTIES THIS PERIOD. IF SFC FRONT ABLE TO PUSH FARTHER SOUTH...CONVECTION MAY BE FEW IN NUMBER EVEN ACROSS THE SOUTHERN COUNTIES. FOR NOW WILL CONFINE POPS TO SLIGHT CHANCE JUST SOUTH OF HIGHWAY 64 TO AROUND 40 PERCENT IN THE FAR SOUTH SATURDAY...AND NO HIGHER THAN 30 PERCENT ACROSS THE FAR SOUTH. AFTERNOON TEMPS WILL BE CLOSE TO NORMAL...RANGING IN THE MID-UPPER 80S. OVERNIGHT TEMPS MID 60S-AROUND 70. && .LONG TERM /MONDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/... AS OF 300 PM THURSDAY... MONDAY... UPPER AIR PATTERN WILL FEATURE WEAK UPPER LEVEL ANTI-CYCLONE DRIFTING E-SE TO A POSITION IN VICINITY OF THE OUTER BANKS. MEANWHILE REMNANTS OF WEAK/DECAYING SFC BOUNDARY MAY DRIFT BACK INTO THE WESTERN PIEDMONT. THIS SFC IN CONJUNCTION WITH AVAILABLE MOISTURE AND AFTERNOON HEATING WILL TRIGGER ISOLATED- CONVECTION...MOST OF WHICH WILL DISSIPATE BY EARLY EVENING. MODIFYING AIR MASS WILL YIELD MAX TEMPS A FEW DEGREES ABOVE CLIMATOLOGY...UPEPR 80S -LOWER 90S. TUESDAY THROUGH THURSDAY... MEDIUM RANGE GUIDANCE DIFFER WITH UPPER AIR PATTERN AS 00Z ECMWF FAVORS A DEEP CUT-OFF LOW OVER THE NW U.S. WHICH IN TURN CAUSES UPPER LEVEL HEIGHTS TO AMPLIFY OVER THE LOWER MS/DEEP SOUTH INTO THE MID MS VALLEY. THE 12Z GFS IS MORE PROGRESSIVE IN THE NORTHERN STREAM...DEPICTING A S/W CROSSING THE NORTHERN TIER WHICH RESULTS IN A SW FLOW ALOFT OVER THE CAROLINAS. THE LATER SOLUTION WOULD FAVOR A BETTER CHANCE FOR DIURNAL CONVECTION VERSUS THE ECMWF. FOR NOW WILL KEEP POPS CLOSE TO CLIMO 25-30 PERCENT) AND KEEP THE PRECIP CHANCES TIED TO DIURNALLY DRIVEN CONVECTION. MODEL GUIDANCE HAS BEEN ADVERTISING WARM AFTERNOON TEMPS IN THE LOW-MOD 90S. SET-UP DOESN'T FAVOR TEMPS SEVERAL DEGREES ABOVE NORMAL SO WILL LEAN TOWARD MAX TEMPS JUST ABOVE NORMAL (UPPER 80S- LOWER 90S). IF GFS VERIFIES...MAX TEMPS WILL END UP BEING IN THE MID- UPPER 80S. && .AVIATION /19Z THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/... AS OF 145 PM THURSDAY... SHOWERS AND STORMS MOVING THROUGH THE COASTAL PLAIN...NOW EAST OF KRWI...WILL GIVE WAY TO A PERIOD OF MARGINALLY VFR CONDITIONS THIS AFTERNOON. HOWEVER...ADDITIONAL SHOWERS AND STORMS ASSOCIATED WITH AN UPPER DISTURBANCE OVER UP STATE SC ARE MOVING TOWARD THE WESTERN PIEDMONT AND MAY ENCROACH UPON KINT/KGSO BY 21Z. IT REMAINS A LITTLE UNCERTAIN HOW STRONG THESE SHOWERS/STORMS WILL BE...BUT A PERIOD OF AT LEAST MVFR CEILINGS/VSBYS SHOULD BE EXPECTED. FURTHER EAST...THE VERY MOISTURE ATMOSPHERE WILL CONTINUE TO SUPPORT ISOLATED TO SCATTERED SHOWERS AND STORMS THAT MAY REACH VICINITY OF KFAY/KRDU AND KRWI THROUGH EARLY EVENING. WITH THE LOSS OF HEATING AND THE PASSAGE OF THE AFOREMENTIONED UPEPR DISTURBANCE...THE COVERAGE OF SHOWERS AND STORMS WILL DECREASE. THE MAIN AVIATION CONCERN OVERNIGHT WILL THEN BE THE DEVELOPMENT OF STRATUS AND FOG...WHICH SEEMS MOST LIKE FROM KRDU TO KRWI BASED ON RAINFALL SO FAR TODAY. OUTLOOK...SCATTERED AFTERNOON SHOWERS AND STORMS WILL CONTINUE TO BE POSSIBLE...THOUGH THE COVERAGE SHOULD DECREASE THROUGH THE WEEKEND. && .RAH WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
