HYDROLOGIST FORECAST DISCUSSION

ATTENTION/ AREA AFFECTED WFO: ALR RAH 

FORECAST DISCUSSION FOR THE CAPE FEAR BASIN: 

... NOT MUCH RESPONSE WITH HANNA ...

THE CURRENT 24-HOUR QPF INCLUDES BASICALLY THE ENTIRE HANNA EXPERIENCE 
SINCE IT SHOULD MOVE THROUGH PRETTY QUICKLY. THE CAPE FEAR BASIN INCLUDING 
CAPE FEAR RIVER, NEUSE RIVER, AND TAR RIVER WILL NOT FLOOD ACCORDING 
TO OUR LATEST MODEL RUN. 

A COUPLE OF FORECAST POINTS CAME CLOSE TO FLOOD STAGE. I ALSO INCLUDED 
RKYN7 BECAUSE IT WAS THE MOST IMPRESSIVE RISE IN THE TAR BASIN. RISES 
ALONG THE LOWER REACHES OF THE TAR RIVER WILL BE RISING BUT THE CRESTS 
ARE TOO FAR OUT TO BE INCLUDED TODAY. SINCE THEIR CRESTS ARE AFTER 
5 DAYS, WE WILL BE UNDOUBTEDLY BE INCLUDING THEM IN THE WEEKEND FORECAST 
PACKAGES.
