SYNOPSIS
Dry high pressure will continue through Friday then moving off the Carolina coast Friday night with warmer temperatures through the early weekend. Expect rain ahead of an approaching cold front from Saturday through Sunday with thunderstorms more likely on Sunday. As the rain ends Sunday night with colder air behind the front expect some light snow in the North Carolina Mountains.

NEAR TERM /THROUGH FRIDAY/
As of 1010 PM EST Thursday: Heights will rise across the East Coast through the period, as a short wave ridge progresses across the region...downstream of a trough deepening across the West. This will allow return flow to begin setting up, as surface high pressure settles off the southeast coast. Cirrus continues to move in from the southwest and will continue overnight. As expected, the combination of increasing high clouds and wide variability in locations where the boundary layer has decoupled and where it hasn't, has created a wide variety in temps across the area. This means min temps will be all over the place as seen in current temps.
SW flow and warm advection continues through Friday, with temps expected to warm to above-normal levels despite the continued presence of high clouds.

SHORT TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT/
As of 115 PM EST Thursday...The upper pattern transitions from a ridge axis to increasing difl flow Sat. This will displace a sfc high off the Atl coast and allow for good moist adv off the Atl and the GOM by the afternoon. Expect enough moisture transport combining with mech lift to produce periods of rain showers across the sw/rn NC mtns and NE GA aft daybreak with little convec potential due the early timing and relatively cool sfc temps.

By Sat night, the atmos become quite dynamic to the west as an acute h5 trof develops across the MS Valley and initiates a stg wavy sfc front over middle TN. This front will be the main weather-maker Sun as it will be supported with high shear thru a deep layer and increasing upper divergence due to coupled jets crossing the area. A pre-frontal trof pushes into the NC mtns arnd 18z (good model consensus on timing) and the overall synoptic forcing will be high enuf to likely produce QLCS even with relatively low instability to work with.

The models continue to indicate arnd 100-250 J/kg of sbCAPE by mid- afternoon ahead of the sfc convg zone, thus a high-shear low-CAPE setup looks to be in store. Expect semi-organized lines of convect capable of producing bowing segments and possible broken-S tors in addition to stg/svr mixed-down straight line winds. The SPC has yet to include an outlook as the event is still Day 4, but the new Day 3 outlook shud have the fcst area in some sort of severe risk. Another issue will be high rainfall amts as the the alignment of strong and deeper cells may linger or train over the same areas while producing high rainfall rates. All in all, this is looking like an event to keep an eye on. Some storm variables will change as we near the event, but right now confidence is abv normal for a sigfnt event to take place.

During the overnight Sun, wrap around moisture will continue and as a colder cP airmass mixes in from the northwest. Expect the development of NW flow snow showers across the wrn NC mtns arnd 00z continuing toward daybreak Mon producing arnd 1-2 inches of accum across the higher elevations. A winter weather advisory may be needed. Highs on Sat will remain abt 5 degrees abv normal and similar highs Sun, except the mtns will see a non-diurnal drop off during the early afternoon behind the sfc front. Abv normal lows Sat night with all the cloudiness and s/ly flow, then a drop-off to the m20s mtn valleys and near freezing over the non/mtns Sun night post FROPA.

LONG TERM /MONDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/
As of 155 PM EST Thursday...A modified cP airmass continues to build across the area Mon and any lingering snow showers across the NC mtns will quickly come to an end due to llvl dry air advection and the orthogonal flow becoming disrupted. The pattern returns quiet over the extended, however, the NC mtn ridges could see black ice issues due to snowfall melting during the day Mon. Surface high pressure is reinforced by a very strong 1040 mb Canadian high diving south on Mon. Good insolation will be had each day, but with this colder airmass slow to modify, max temps will remain generally in the 50s and lows fall into the 20s and 30s each night. Wind chills should not be an issue, even across the higher terrain, as mixed- layered winds remain low end.

AVIATION /03Z FRIDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/
At KCLT and elsewhere: VFR conditions will continue through the period with only increasing high clouds expected this evening into Friday. Winds will generally be light SW or light and variable overnight, then S to SW up to 10 kts during the day Friday.

Outlook: Moisture will return from the SW late Friday night, and a ceiling restriction could develop as early as daybreak Saturday.
Additional restrictions and precip will move in Saturday night ahead of an approaching cold front, which low pressure passing NW of the region will push through on Sunday. VFR conditions return for Monday into Tuesday.
