Air mass ; Atmospheric circulation ; Drought ; Heat flow ; Heat wave ; North Carolina ; Soil moisture ; Spatial variation ; United States of America ; Weather type
A critical aspect of the August 2007 heat wave was the observed variability in heat and humidity across the different geographic regions of North Carolina. The highest maximum temperatures occurred most frequently in the Piedmont and Sandhills
. Regional to local variations in the heat and humidity across North Carolina are linked to upwind sensible heat fluxes associated with major soil moisture deficits, adiabatic warming connected with downsloping winds off the Appalachian Mountains
