Midnight Moon Posted May 24, 2019 Share Posted May 24, 2019 FXUS62 KRAH 232337 AFDRAH AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION National Weather Service Raleigh NC 736 PM EDT Thu May 23 2019 LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/... As of 320 PM Thursday... Hints of a large scale pattern change begin to be seen late Wed through Thu, when anomalous low heights over the Western US appear to finally rise and give way to falling heights over Canada that should help tamp down the Southeast ridge. This will allow energy over the Rockies to take on a more southern track eastward across the Carolinas with strengthening SW 850 mb flow helping to draw more moisture into NC. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking forward to going to the beach, lake, and amusement parks this summer. But have to hang out at the midwest forum to get my severe weather fix. Yep...not a lot to say when it's hot and dry day after day. This much heat this early is depressing as hell. The only positive is that if its going to be hot it might as well be record setting. Although ffc isn't forecasting 100 here, I expect I will. Euro has been showing 100 here for days....last night run is still showing 100 here from sat through Thursday. Ridiculous.

FLweather Posted May 26, 2019 Share Posted May 26, 2019 When is this pattern going to break?! This is just pure hell for this area. Normally upper 80- low 90s with afternoon storms. It's been every bit of 95-97 degrees here, no clouds no seabreeze storms. Just hot dry wind. I'm afraid setting up for a bad drought for parts of FL, GA, SC, Al 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FallsLake Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 Long range models do show the extreme heat being knocked back starting this weekend. Even some dew points in the 40s in the extended. Hopefully that holds.... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

griteater Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 Not a cloud in the sky here today. Dewpoints / Humidity are down east of the mountains and temperatures are high, and it's breezy....an early summer scorcher. Some relief is on the way beginning Friday and thru next week. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As much as I am rooting for this to be true. this sounds a lot like our winter discussion of pattern changing snow in the long range kind of thing. I have given up on my lawn (weed patch) and just trying to keep the gardens from getting baked alive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even going to normal or slightly above would be a win right now. **but the 12z models continue to show the cool down starting this weekend.

Early cold flip, then another December Destroyer snow storm, and then.....well, we know what happens next. I give this prediction a 99.8% chance of verifying. The .02 leaves room for a Yellowstone eruption. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NC_hailstorm Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 Lower heights/trof return tomorrow,death ridge being weakened and pushed back out.Better rain chances begin around day 6 on the Euro,GFS is similar. 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We just avoided triple digits here. But a nasty string of 96-98 degree highs. Still very dry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orangeburgwx Posted June 2, 2019 Share Posted June 2, 2019 Fwiw.... GFS hinting at a possible weaker version of Micheal (identical track) on the 16th. It would give me 6" of rain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FallsLake Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 Looks like we get more chances for rain starting this Wednesday. Most of the models show ~ 1-2" during the next week. LR models show the possibility of some cool days here and there (..big variations of when). Any cool days we get this time of year should be treasured. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Solak Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 RAH: .LONG TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY/... As of 400 AM Tuesday... ...Confidence increasing of a multi-day heavy rain threat across the Southeast Friday through early next week... A 4 to 5 day period of anomalously high PWATS of 2.0" or more(potentially enhanced by tropical remnants of the disturbance in the Bay of Campeche) during which a stalled frontal zone will bisect the area followed by increasing cyclonic flow aloft and then the arrival of strong synoptic lift with the upper level trough and cold front moving into the area will result in a multi-day heavy rainfall threat across the region with a cumulative 2-4" of rain possible.

Same here...was generally between 97 to 99 but never 100 so euro was a few degrees too warm....but certainly that was bad enough. Soooooo glad that hellish pattern finally has changed. Its bone dry here...indeed on the line of moderate drought....seems likely most get enough rain to change the course over the next few weeks...thankfully avoiding conditions getting worse. Hate to think what this summer would be like if we maintained that pattern. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
