.DISCUSSION...
As of 355 PM Saturday...

KEY MESSAGE 1... Strong to severe storms remain possible across
central NC into mid evening. Mostly dry through tonight, although
patchy light rain is possible toward morning, along with widespread
low clouds.

Strong to severe storms are ongoing at this hour, with a general
motion to the SE and SSE. As these feed on moderate SBCAPE within an
environment of favorable effective bulk shear of 30-45 kts and high
DCAPE of 1000-1300 J/kg, isolated to scattered discrete cells and
clusters producing 60+ mph winds and 1-2" diameter hail remain
likely. A Severe Thunderstorm Watch was issued for all of central NC
until 8 PM EDT, although the severe threat in far NW areas has
diminished as of now.

As these storms and its accompanying frontal zone settle into our
southern areas by mid evening and to our S by midnight, more stable
air and lingering low level moisture will combine to result in a
good chance for low clouds and areas of fog over much of the area
overnight into Sun morning.


KEY MESSAGE 2... Today is the last dangerously hot day of this
stretch, with a brief respite in the heat coming Sun through Tue.
But above normal temperatures return for Wed through Sat, with Thu
as the hottest day.

As the aforementioned storms drop SE and SSE through the area, the
rain-cooled air will bring a welcomed end to this stretch of
dangerous heat. A cooler and less humid air mass building in from
the N and NE will bring near normal or even slightly below normal
temps for Sun-Tue, as broad but deep mid level troughing over the
Eastern Seaboard gradually lifts ENE off the coast. By mid week, mid
level ridging will build back in from the W, from the mid Miss
Valley, pushing low level thicknesses back above normal. This heat
doesn`t look quite as intense as this most recent heat wave, as the
dewpoints should be a little lower, keeping peak heat index values
even on Thu in the mid 90s to around 100F. Apart from a chance of
light rain Sun, dry weather is expected through at least mid week.
Renewed mid level troughing digging through the Great Lakes region,
Ohio Valley and into the Appalachians late in the week should help
knock temps back down closer to normal by Fri/Sat with increasing
clouds and a return to shower/storm chances.

&&

.AVIATION /06Z SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
As of 200 AM Sunday...

Light wind, initially clear skies, and abundant near surface and
soil moisture will favor the development of areas of low stratus and
fog/mist this morning. Related ceilings and visibility restrictions
will lift through MVFR range and probably become low VFR between 16-
19Z, earliest at FAY and latest at INT/GSO. Scattered to locally
numerous showers and storms will also probably develop along and
near a backdoor cold front that will settle swwd across the forecast
area through this afternoon-early evening.

Outlook: Areas of IFR-MVFR ceilings and patchy light rain/drizzle
will be possible at, and especially just west of, INT/GSO late
tonight-Mon morning.

&&

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