AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHARLESTON SC
211 PM EDT SAT MAY 27 2006

.SHORT TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT/...TEMPS HAVE RISEN INTO
THE LWR-MID 90S THIS AFTN WITH A FEW UPR 90S BEING OBSERVED ACROSS
INTERIOR SE GA. MOST LOCATIONS SHOULD EASILY TOP OUT IN THE MID-UPR
90S WITH HEAT INDICES AROUND 100 DEG THROUGH ERLY EVNG. WNDS AT
EDISTO BEACH AND FOLLY BEACH HAVE RECENTLY BACKED A BIT MORE TO THE
SW SUGGESTING A SEVERELY DELAYED RESULTANT SEA BREEZE IS TRYING TO
MATERIALIZE ALONG THE SC COAST. THERE ARE NO SUCH INDICATIONS
FARTHER S ALONG THE GA COAST AS WNDS AT TYBEE ISLAND AND SAINT
SIMMONS ARE STILL SOLIDLY W. INSTABILITY IS HIGH ACROSS THE RGN
/CAPES AOA 2500 J/KG AND LI/S -6 TO -7C/ BUT WITH WLY FLOW ALOFT...
WK SFC CONVG /MAINLY ALONG THE SEA BREEZE/ AND WK SHEAR PROFILES SEE
NO REASON TO GO ANY HIGHER THAN 20 PCNT POPS ATTM. WK FNTL BNDRY WL
SAG ACROSS THE MIDLANDS AND PORTIONS OF E-CNTRL GA TNGT. THE 27/12Z
WRF IS INSISTENT THAT SOME SORT OF ORGANIZED MCS MAY BRUSH SE GA AND
FAR SRN SC AHEAD OF THE FNT LTR THIS EVNG. NOT READY TO JUMP HIGH
POPS JUST YET GIVEN CURRENT CONVECTIVE TRENDS BUT THIS IS SOMETHING
THE EVNG SHIFT WL HAVE TO MONITOR. ANOTHER MUGGY NGT IS IN STORE
WITH LOWS AROUND 70 INLAND TO THE MID 70S COAST.

WK BNDRY WL SINK THROUGH THE AREA ON SUN AS HIGH PRES BUILDS DOWN
THE LEE OF THE APPALACHIANS. BNDRY IS QUITE DIFFUSE BUT COULD
PROVIDE ENOUGH LOW-LVL CONVG TO SPARK OFF ISOLD TO SCT TSTMS DURING
THE AFTN...MAINLY S OF I-16 AND W OF I-95. PCPN CHANCES FOR THE
CHARLESTON AND TRI-COUNTY AREAS WL BE QUITE LOW AS PRONOUNCED
MID-LVL DRYING ADVECTS IN FROM THE N. HIGHS WL RANGE FROM THE LWR
90S N TO THE MID 90S S AND COOLER AT THE BEACHES WITH A DVLPG
ONSHORE FLOW. SUN NGT WL BE SOMEWHAT COOLER WITH LOWS IN THE MID-UPR
60S INLAND WITH UPR 60-LWR 70S COAST.
&&

.LONG TERM /MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...MEDIUM RANGE GUIDANCE REMAINS
IN GOOD AGREEMENT EARLY IN THE EXTENDED...WITH SOLUTIONS DIVERGING A
BIT BY LATE IN THE PERIOD. H5 RIDGING IS EXPECTED TO HOLD STRONG
THROUGH MID WEEK...RESULTING IN RAIN FREE WEATHER MON THROUGH WED.
UPPER HEIGHTS BEGIN TO LOWER AND LOW LEVEL MOISTURE BEGINS TO
INCREASE LATER IN THE WEEK...AS RETURN FLOW GETS ESTABLISHED IN
ADVANCE OF NEXT FRONTAL BOUNDARY. MODEL SOLUTIONS DIFFER ON TIMING
OF THIS FRONTAL BOUNDARY THROUGH THE AREA LATE IN THE WEEK...WITH
THE GFS SUGGESTING A FRONTAL PASSAGE MAY OCCUR AS EARLY AS LATE FRI
OR FRI NIGHT. MODEL CONSENSUS HOWEVER FAVORS A FRONTAL PASSAGE LATE
SAT OR SAT NIGHT...WITH THE 00Z UKMET/00Z ECMWF/12Z CANADIAN ALL ON
BOARD WITH THIS IDEA. FORECAST WILL REFLECT MODEL CONSENSUS...WITH
SLGT CHC/LOW CHC POPS THU THROUGH SAT. TEMPERATURES THROUGH THE
EXTENDED ARE EXPECTED TO RUN SLIGHTLY ABOVE CLIMO MON AND TUE...THEN
NEAR NORMAL WED THROUGH SAT.
&&

.MARINE...SLY WNDS WL PERSIST TNGT. WK LLJ WL LIKELY BRING WNDS BACK
UP CLOSER TO 10-15 KT WITHIN 20 NM AND 15 KT BEYOND 20 NM AFT
MIDNGT. WK FNTL BNDRY WL SINK S THROUGH THE SC WTRS SUN MRNG...
LIKELY STALLING OR SLOWING DOWN NEAR THE SAVANNAH RIVER BY ERLY
AFTN. FNT WL MERGE WITH OR DSPT SUN AFTN AS THE AFTN SEA BREEZE
MOVES INLAND RESULTING IN A GENERAL ONSHORE FLOW ACROSS THE ENTIRE
MARINE AREA. AN ONSHORE FLOW WL PERSIST THROUGH SUN NGT.

HIGH PRESSURE WILL REMAIN IN PLACE ACROSS THE WESTERN ATLANTIC MON
THROUGH THU...RESULTING IN A GENERALLY EASTERLY FLOW ACROSS THE
WATERS. WINDS ARE EXPECTED TO REMAIN AOB 15 KT...WITH SEAS AOB 3 FT
MON THROUGH THU.
&&

.AVIATION...CURRENT SATELLITE IS SHOWING SOME CU DEVELOPING AROUND
THE AREA. WINDS WILL STAY AS A SW COMPONENT FOR MOST OF THE
AFTERNOON...DON/T THINK SEABREEZE WILL QUITE MAKE IT TO THE SAV
TERM. WINDS WILL START TO DECOUPLE OVERNIGHT AND BACK MORE NW TOWARD
MORNING. KEPT CB IN SAV AS ISOLATED TSTMS COULD GENERATE LATE THIS
AFTERNOON. VFR CONDITIONS WILL PREVAIL THROUGHOUT THE FORECAST
PERIOD FOR BOTH CHS AND SAV.
