AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WAKEFIELD VA
1011 PM EDT THU JUL 3 2014

.SYNOPSIS...
HURRICANE ARTHUR WILL LIFT ALONG THE EASTERN NORTH CAROLINA COAST
TONIGHT AS A COLD FRONT APPROACHES FROM THE WEST. ARTHUR WILL
REACH THE OUTER BANKS BY THIS EVENING AS THE COLD FRONT PUSHES
ACROSS THE REGION. ARTHUR WILL THEN PUSH OFFSHORE FRIDAY
MORNING...SWEEPING THE COLD FRONT THROUGH WITH IT. HIGH PRESSURE
THEN RETURNS TO THE AREA FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH THIS WEEKEND.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 7 AM FRIDAY MORNING/...
     UPDATE TO CANCEL FLOOD WATCH...

HURRICANE ARTHUR CONTINUES ITS TRACK NORTHEASTWARD ALONG THE NC
COAST WITH RAIN BANDS SPREADING NORTHWARD INTO ERN NC. SHOULD SEE
RAIN QUICKLY BREAKING OUT ACROSS BERTIE AND CHOWAN THROUGH 10 PM
AND QUICKLY ACROSS THE REST OF NE NC THROUGH MIDNIGHT.

ELSEWHERE...THE SHOWERS CONTINUE TO LIFT NWD AND ARE BECOMING VERY
SCATTERED IN NATURE AS THE COLD FRONT TO THE WEST OF THE AREA HAS
STALLED. THE 18Z NAM SHOWS THAT THE MAIN BAND OF SHOWER WILL
GENERALLY SET UP WEST OF THE PIEDMONT COUNTIES SO HAVE TAPERED
BACK THE POPS THROUGH MIDNIGHT BEFORE RAMPING THEM BACK UP AS THE
CENTER OF THE HURRICANE REACHES OUR LATITUDE AND THE FRONT GETS
PULLED EASTWARD.

FOR THE QPF FORECAST...HAVE REDUCED AMOUNTS TO THE WEST TO 0.25 OR
LESS WITH THE LOWER CHANCES FOR RAIN. THEREFORE HAVE CANCELLED THE
FLOOD WATCH.

PREV DISCUSSION...
LATEST WATER VAPOR IMAGERY DEPICTS ANOMALOUS UPPER TROUGH PUSHING
INTO THE REGION AS ARTHUR LOCATES OFF THE NC/SC COAST. TROUGH HAS
STARTED TO DAMPEN SLIGHTLY AS A STRONG SPEED MAX ROUNDS THE
BASE...BUT IT CONTINUES TO MAKE A GOOD PUSH EWD. EVEN SO...THE
COLD FRONT HAS MADE VERY LITTLE EWD PROGRESS...WITH SCT-NUMEROUS
SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS REMAINING OVER THE CNTRL APPALACHIANS.
WIDESPREAD HEAVY RAINFALL HAS BEEN OBSERVED WITH THESE STORMS.
ANOTHER AREA OF SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS ASSOCIATED WITH A TROPICAL
BAND FROM ARTHUR HAS SPREAD INTO SW VA...WITH SCT
SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS DEVELOPING INTO CNTRL VA.
HOWEVER...SUBSIDENCE VISIBLE ON WATER VAPOR AND VISIBLE SATELLITE
HAS INHIBITED COVERAGE OVER MUCH OF THE LOCAL AREA THUS FAR THIS
AFTERNOON. THIS WILL CHANGE AS AN EMBEDDED SHORTWAVE LIFTS OVER
THE REGION...COOLING TEMPS ALOFT AND IMPROVING MID-LEVEL LAPSE
RATES. WITH TEMPS WARMING INTO THE MID 90S OVER THE PIEDMONT INTO
CNTRL VA WITH DEWPOINTS IN THE UPPER 60S-LOW 70S HAS PUSHED MLCAPE
VALUES TO 2000-2500 J/KG. THE ADDED INSTABILITY ALONG WITH THETA-E
RIDGING AND COOLING ALOFT WILL RESULT IN MUCH BETTER COVERAGE LATE
THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING FROM THE PIEDMONT INTO CNTRL VA.
CORFIDI VECTORS AND FLOW STILL SUGGESTS HEAVY RAINFALL. ISOLATED
DAMAGING WINDS ALSO POSSIBLE DUE TO INSTABILITY AND INVERTED V
SOUNDINGS. FLASH FLOOD WATCH REMAINS IN EFFECT FOR THE NW PORTIONS
OF THE LOCAL AREA.

MEANWHILE...ARTHUR LIFTS NNE ALONG THE SC/NC COAST THIS
EVENING...STRENGTHENING SLIGHTLY. BANDS LIFTING NWD WILL LIKELY
PUSH SOME PRECIP INTO THE REGION THIS EVENING BEFORE THE HEAVIEST
SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS ARRIVE TONIGHT.

TONIGHT...
ARTHUR LIFTS ALONG THE NC COAST TONIGHT...LOCATING OFF THE OUTER
BANKS LATE TONIGHT-EARLY FRI MORNING. TROPICAL AIRMASS WILL BE IN
PLACE OVER SE VA/NE NC WITH PRECIP WATERS IN EXCESS OF 2 INCHES.
THE RESULT WILL BE HEAVY RAINFALL ALONG THE COAST OVERNIGHT WITH
RAINFALL AMOUNTS OF 1-3 INCHES...WITH LOCALLY HIGHER AMOUNTS.
TROPICAL STORM FORCE GUSTS OF 40-50 MPH CAN BE EXPECTED ALONG THE
SE VA/NE NC COAST LATE TONIGHT INTO EARLY FRI MORNING.
MEANWHILE...THE COLD FRONT WILL SLOWLY PUSH ACROSS THE LOCAL AREA.
HEAVY RAINFALL REMAINS A THREAT AS STORM MOTION REMAINS SLOW AND
THE AIRMASS REMAINS MOIST. QPF AMOUNTS ALONG THE FRONT WILL
GENERALLY BE ONE HALF TO ONE INCH WITH LOCALIZED AMOUNTS UP TO 2
INCHES.

PLEASE REFER TO THE HURRICANE LOCAL STATEMENT FOR MORE IMPACTS
RELATED TO ARTHUR AND NHC FOR THE LATEST TRACK AND INTENSITY
INFORMATION.

&&

.SHORT TERM /7 AM FRIDAY MORNING THROUGH SUNDAY/...
ARTHUR QUICKLY DEPARTS THE MID-ATLANTIC COAST EARLY
FRI...SWEEPING THE COLD FRONT OFF THE COAST EARLY FRI AFTERNOON.
WLY FLOW ALONG WITH SUBSIDENCE AND STRONG PRESSURE RISES IN WAKE
OF THE FRONT WILL RESULT IN A RAPID DRYING TREND FRI AFTERNOON
W-E. SKIES WILL ALSO RAPIDLY CLEAR INLAND...BECOMING MOSTLY SUNNY
BY MID AFTERNOON. CLOUDS/SHOWERS MAY LINGER ALONG THE ERN SHORE
THRU LATE AFTERNOON...BUT INDEPENDENCE DAY NIGHT LOOKS QUITE PLEASANT
FOR EARLY JUNE. TEMPS FRI ONLY FORECAST IN THE MID 80S. DEWPOINTS
WILL DROP INTO THE UPPER 50S-LOW 60S...RESULTING IN LESS HUMID
CONDITIONS. STRONG HIGH PRESSURE (~1025 MB) BUILDS EWD OVER THE OH
VALLEY FRI NIGHT...SETTLING OVER THE REGION SATURDAY. THE RESULT
IS FAIR WEATHER AND GENERALLY MOSTLY SUNNY CONDITIONS. LOWS FRI
NIGHT-SAT MORNING FORECAST IN THE UPPER 50S OVER RURAL AREAS
INLAND TO LOW 60S. ALONG THE COAST...WARM WATERS WILL KEEP TEMPS
IN THE UPPER 60S. TEMPS WILL ONLY WARM INTO THE MID 80S AGAIN SAT
AS DEWPOINTS MIX INTO THE UPPER 40S. N WINDS 10-15 MPH. TEMPS SAT
NIGHT BACK INTO THE UPPER 50S-LOW 60S INLAND TO UPPER 60S NEAR THE
COAST. HIGH PRESSURE PUSHES OFFSHORE SUNDAY WITH RETURN FLOW
WARMING TEMPS BACK INTO THE UPPER 80S...NEAR NORMAL FOR THIS TIME
OF YEAR.

&&

.LONG TERM /SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY/...
BERMUDA HIGH DOMINATES NEXT WEEK. S-SW FLOW ALLOWS HEAT AND HUMIDITY
TO RETURN. MODELS SHOW THERMAL TROF DVLPNG EAST OF MTS RESULTING IN
LOW CHC DIURNAL POPS TUE THRU THU. HIGHS L-M90S...XCPT M-U80S BEACH
AREAS. LOWS U60S-M70S THRU THE PRD.

&&

.AVIATION /02Z FRIDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
COLD FRONT OVER WESTERN VA WILL SLOWLY MOVE EAST OVERNIGHT. EXPECT
CONDS TO DETERIORATE FOR ECG DURING THE LATE EVENING AND OVERNIGHT
AHEAD OF HURRICANE ARTHUR. ARTHUR WILL BRUSH THE NC OUTER BANKS
EARLY FRI MORNING AND THEN MOVE RAPIDLY NE AND FARTHER OUT TO SEA.
35 TO 45 KT WINDS COULD POTENTIALLY IMPACT BOTH NE NC AND SE VA
DURING THAT TIME ALONG WITH RAIN BANDS FROM THE STORM. RAINS FROM
