.WHAT HAS CHANGED...

.KEY MESSAGES...
As of 230 AM Wednesday...

1) Cold air damming regime will stay in place over the next few
days, with cool temperatures and light rain.

.DISCUSSION...
As of 230 AM Wednesday...

1) Cold air damming regime will stay in place over the next few
days, with cool temperatures and light rain.

The cold front has successfully made its way through the region, and
now looks to be located along the NC coast into South Carolina. This
front should stall to our south and at the same time a low pressure
system is expected to strengthen off the NC coast. This has allowed
for a cold air damming regime to set up over the area. Through the
day today, expect cooler temperatures, with highs looking to remain
in the low 60s in the northwest to the low (perhaps mid) 70s in the
southeast. This will be accompanied by overcast skies and periods of
light rain/drizzle. A shortwave trough should approach and move
through the region tonight, which could allow for increased rainfall
in the evening to overnight hours.

The low pressure system will continue to strengthen off the coast
and move to the north, which should help the CAD erode Thursday
evening into Friday. The erosion should be aided by drier and
somewhat cooler air moving into the region by Friday morning. Since
the CAD looks to remain through Thursday afternoon, additional light
rain and drizzle will remain possible Thursday as well.
Additionally, gusty winds look likely as the low strengthens off the
coast on Thursday afternoon. After the CAD erodes, temperatures look
to slowly moderate each day through mid-week.

&&

.AVIATION /06Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
As of 200 AM Wednesday...

IFR conditions are generally expected to prevail over the 24 hour
TAF period. A cold air damming regime will allow for the deck of 500-
900 ft OVC ceilings to remain in place through the day today. Along
with this, periods of drizzle and/or light rain will remain possible
over at least the next 24 hours, with periods of moderate rain
possible late tonight. With the drizzle/light rain there will also
be reductions in visibility, with a few sites reporting 3-5 SM
visibilities as of the 6Z observations. There could be brief
improvements or reductions from the IFR ceilings, however IFR should
be the main prevailing flight category.

Outlook: Widespread stratus with at least sub-VFR conditions are
expected through Thursday. Conditions will improve on Friday and
Saturday as VFR conditions arrive.

.RAH WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
None.
