Another cold front will move through Wednesday night or Thursday. Near term today As of 220 am mon... Latest sfc analysis shows high pressure anchored over the NE us extending southward into the SE us, with low pressure now about 280 miles S SE of CAPE hatteras. Low could become tropical or sub-tropical later today or tonight as it moves ne. The low will stay far enough offshore to have little to no impact to sensible weather, other than contributing to increased swell energy across the coastal waters. Modest moisture overrunning the wedge will keep mostly cloudy skies this morning, but should start to see wedge weaken later today and likely to see more breaks in the clouds late morning and this afternoon. Latest radar imagery shows isolated showers offshore this morning. Only a few isolated to widely scattered showers expected today, with best chances towards the coast aided by persistent onshore flow. Airmass remains pretty dry, with forecast soundings showing pwats around 1 inch. Another day of below normal temps and dewpoints as N NE flow continues between the high to the nnw and low pressure well offshore. Temps should be a couple degrees warmer than Sun as thicknesses rise more and perhaps some more breaks in the clouds. Highs in the low to mid 80s. Short term tonight As of 220 am mon... High pressure to the north continues to weaken and shift eastward, as low continues to lift NE well off the carolina coast. Moisture begins to increase from the west tonight with increased shortwave energy ahead of frontal system. Isolated showers possible overnight with best chances along the coast. Patchy fog will be possible inland with light winds and some lingering low level moisture. Lows dropping into the mid 60s inland and upper 60s to low 70s along the coast. Long term Tuesday through Sunday As of 335 pm sun... Eastern nc will remain in a weakly zonal flow between subtropical upper ridges over the SW CONUS and bermuda through tue, while at the surface a possible tropical cyclone tracks northeast and offshore with minimal affects expected over land. Mid week, amplification of the flow into an upper trough will allow a cold front to push into our region late Wed then stall just south Thu where it will dissipate through fri. Upper ridging from the atlantic is forecast to extend back over the area next weekend with a weakening cold front possibly penetrating the ridge late in the weekend. Minimal shower chances expected through early wed, then better coverage of showers and thunderstorms are expected late Wed into thu with the frontal passage. Will keep 20-30% pops fri-sun for mainly diurnal showers and storms aided by weak frontal boundaries near the area. Tuesday... Only minimal (20%) chance for showers as low level ne flow associated with high pressure prevails across the area with the potential tropical cyclone expected to remain offshore. Any cyclone related impacts will be water related in the form of rough surf and strong rip currents. Highs will be in the low to mid 80s. Wednesday through Sunday... The aforementioned front begins to affect the area late Wed into Thu with better coverage of showers and thunderstorms expected. Temps should warm a bit into the mid to upper 80s wed-thu as southerly flow briefly develops ahead of the front. The front is forecast to stall and dissipate near along the coast Fri into Sat with another weak front possibly moving in Sunday. Therefore will need to keep low end chance pops fri-sun for mainly afternoon evening activity. Highs will mostly in the low to mid 80s and lows in the mid upr 60s interior to low 70s coast. Aviation 06z Monday through Friday Short term through tonight ... |
as of 220 am mon...VFR conditions continue across the terminals early this morning. Persistent northeast winds and falling dew points will preclude any fog threat overnight. However, lingering low level moisture will be trapped below increasing subsidence aloft, and CAA in the low levels will likely prompt low stratus to develop across much of the area early this morning. MVFR ceilings are likely to develop and may continue through late morning. Ceilings should lift becomingVFR by late morning. Patchy fog and low stratus will be possible late tonight and Tuesday morning. Long term Tuesday through Friday ... as of 335 pm sun... The best chance for showers and thunderstorms will be late Wed into Thu as a cold front moves through the area. Otherwise, the best chance for brief subVFR conditions will early each morning in fog stratus and briefly in scattered showers storms Tue and Fri afternoons and evenings. Marine Short term through tonight ... as of 220 am mon... Latest buoy obs show N NE winds 15-25 kt, strongest south of hatteras, with seas 5-7 ft. SCA continues for the coastal waters and sounds. May be able to drop SCA for the albemarle croatan roanoke sounds and alligator river towards sunrise this morning as obs show winds slowly coming down. Low pressure is now about 280 miles S SE of CAPE hatteras. Low could become tropical or sub-tropical later today or tonight as it moves ne. The low will stay far enough offshore to have little to no impact to sensible weather, other than contributing to increased swell energy across the coastal waters... Helping to keep seas elevated across some waters through mid week. N ne winds will diminish to 10-20 kt this afternoon, still strongest across the southern waters, and 10-15 kt overnight. Elevated seas 5-7 ft will continue today, subsiding to 4-6 ft this evening. Wavewatch, nwps and ec show seas subsiding below 6 ft across the southern waters by this evening, and remaining elevated north of ocracoke through tonight. Long term Tuesday through Friday ... as of 335 pm sun... Ne flow around 15 kt is expected through tue night. Residual 5-6 ft over the outer northern and central waters are forecast to linger through Tue evening before subsiding. Light SW flow around 10 kt is forecast to develop late Wed and Wed night then shift to N NE Thu as a weak cold front crosses the waters. NE E flow around 10 kt is forecast fri. Seas 3-5 ft wed, then becoming 2-3 ft Thursday and fri. Tides coastal flooding As of 220 am mon... Dangerous surf conditions expected to continue today, with strong rip currents and dangerous shore break. A high risk of rip currents continues north of cape hatteras, with a moderate risk from CAPE hatteras to cape lookout. Elevated water levels continue early this morning, with inundation of around 1 ft or less for very low lying areas adjacent to the southern pamlico sound and neuse rivers (including areas from downeast carteret, west towards cherry point and oriental). Waters should slowly recede later this morning as northeast winds continue to gradually weaken. Mhx watches warnings advisories Nc... Beach hazards statement through this evening for ncz203-205.

Almost all of these also make simplifying assumptions so they are not totally accurate even if there are no errors.

It is not checked for accuracy either by anyone at L-36.com or by the source which is typically the US Government. See the NOAA web site for their disclaimer. Finally, tide and current data on this site is from 2007 and 2008 data bases, which may contain even older data. Changes in harbors due to building or dredging change tides and currents and for that reason many of the locations presented are no longer supported by newer data bases. For example, there is very little tidal current data in newer data bases so current data is likely wrong to some extent. This data is NOT FOR NAVIGATION. See the XTide disclaimer for details. In addition, tide and current are influenced by storms, river flow, and other factors beyond the ability of any predictive program. |
