AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHARLESTON SC
749 AM EDT SUN SEP 2 2007

.SYNOPSIS...
A FRONTAL BOUNDARY APPROACHING FROM THE NORTH...A SURFACE TROUGH
TO THE SOUTH...AND A TROUGH ALONG THE COAST WILL COMBINE WITH MOIST
TROPICAL FLOW TO PRODUCE UNSETTLED CONDITIONS THROUGH THE HOLIDAY
WEEKEND. HIGH PRESSURE WILL THEN BUILD INTO THE REGION FROM THE
NORTH BY THE MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK...AND WILL REMAIN OVER THE REGION
INTO NEXT WEEKEND.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
SHOWERS CONTINUE TO PUSH ONSHORE OVER THE COASTAL COUNTIES EARLY
THIS MORNING...A RESULT OF COASTAL CONVERGENCE...THE FLOW OF DEEP
MOISTURE FROM OVER THE ATLANTIC...AND FORCING FROM A SURFACE
TROUGH EXTENDING ACROSS THE FLORIDA PANHANDLE. THE EXTENT OF WET
CONDITIONS TODAY WILL LARGELY DEPEND ON THE AMOUNT OF DRY AIR THAT
FILTERS IN FROM THE NORTH WITH A FRONTAL BOUNDARY PRESSING
SOUTHWARD...AS WELL AS THE DEVELOPMENT OF A WEAK COASTAL LOW
OFFSHORE. LOOKS LIKE THE GREATEST CHANCE FOR WIDESPREAD HEAVY
RAINFALL AND LOCALIZED FLOODING WILL ONCE AGAIN BE IN THE EASTERN
HALF OF THE FORECAST AREA. INLAND SECTIONS MAY FEEL THE EFFECTS OF
DRIER AIR MOVING IN FROM THE NORTH AS SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE RIDGES
INLAND. COASTAL LOCATIONS WILL BE CLOSER TO THE DEVELOPING
TROUGH/CLOSED LOW AND WILL REMAIN WITHIN THE PLUME OF DEEP
MOISTURE AND CONVERGENCE. AS A RESULT...HAVE REMOVED A FEW OF THE
INLAND SOUTHEAST GEORGIA COUNTIES FROM THE ONGOING FLOOD WATCH.
OTHERWISE...WILL MAINTAIN THE FLOOD WATCH THROUGH TONIGHT FOR THE
REST OF THE PREVIOUSLY INCLUDED COUNTIES.

HAVE ALSO REDUCED POPS IN THE NORTHWESTERN COUNTIES THIS
AFTERNOON AS A RESULT OF THE REASONING DESCRIBED ABOVE...WITH POPS
INCREASING TO LIKELY IN THE SOUTHERN THIRD OF THE FORECAST AREA.
RAIN CHANCES TREND DOWNWARD ACROSS THE REGION OVERNIGHT...AS BOTH
GFS AND NAM SUGGEST THAT THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE WEAK LOW ALLOWS
DRIER AIR TO FILTER SOUTHWARD BY MONDAY MORNING.

CLOUDINESS WILL AGAIN IMPACT HIGH TEMPERATURES FOR THIS
AFTERNOON...KEEPING MAX TEMPERATURES ONLY IN THE LOWER TO MID 80S.
LOW TEMPERATURES WILL RANGE FROM AROUND 70 DEGREES FAR INLAND TO
THE MID 70S CLOSER TO THE COAST.

LAKE WINDS...COOL FRONT TO MOVE ACROSS LAKE MOULTRIE EARLY THIS
MORNING. WINDS IN WAKE OF THIS FRONT WILL INCREASE AND WITH
GEOSTROPHIC WINDS AT 1000 MB APPROACHING 25 OR 30 KT WE ARE LOOKING
AT SURFACE WINDS OVER THE LAKE OF 15 TO PERHAPS 20 KT. THIS IS JUST
BELOW ANY LAKE WIND CRITERIA...BUT AN UNUSUAL EVENT FOR THIS TIME OF
YEAR. DAY CREW WILL NEED TO CLOSELY MONITOR FOR ANY HIGHER WINDS
PENDING DATA FROM 12Z SOUNDINGS.

&&

.SHORT TERM /MONDAY THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT/...
SURFACE HIGH TO THE NORTH WILL SLIDE INTO THE ATLANTIC ON MONDAY
WHILE THE WEAK COASTAL LOW LINGERS OFF THE SOUTH CAROLINA AND
GEORGIA COASTLINE. LATEST MODEL GUIDANCE SUGGESTS THAT DRIER AIR
WILL MAKE ENOUGH PROGRESS SOUTHWARD ON MONDAY TO REDUCE PRECIP
CHANCES FOR MOST INLAND AREAS. HAVE REDUCED POPS ACCORDINGLY ON
MONDAY...WITH CHANCE POPS EASTERN HALF AND SLIGHT CHANCE WESTERN
COUNTIES. AS THE COASTAL LOW GRADUALLY SHIFTS AWAY FROM THE
COASTLINE...BEST RAIN CHANCES WILL SHIFT OVER THE WATERS. THUS DO
NOT EXPECT SHOWER/THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT OVER LAND ON TUESDAY.

GRADUALLY CLEARING SKIES MONDAY AND TUESDAY WILL MEAN GRADUALLY
INCREASING DAYTIME HIGH TEMPERATURES. EXPECT TEMPERATURES TO REACH
THE MID TO UPPER 80S ON MONDAY...WITH TEMPERATURES AROUND 90
DEGREES POSSIBLE INLAND ON TUESDAY.

&&

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
OVERALL GUIDANCE IS IN GOOD AGREEMENT THROUGH THE EXTENDED
PERIOD. HIGH PRESSURE WILL REBUILD INTO THE REGION THROUGH
SATURDAY. WILL GO WITH A DRY FORECAST ACROSS THE AREA WEDNESDAY AS
DEEP MOISTURE REMAINS WELL SOUTH OF THE CWA. LONG NE FETCH ON THE
SOUTHERN END OF HIGH PRESSURE MAY ALLOW A SHWR/TSTM TO ROLL IN OFF
THE ATLANTIC WED NIGHT...SO WILL CARRY SLGT CHC POPS FOR COASTAL
GA ZONES.

HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD INTO THE WESTERN ATLANTIC THURSDAY THROUGH
SATURDAY...ALLOWING RETURN FLOW TO RE-ESTABLISH ITSELF OVER THE
AREA. AS SURFACE DEWPOINTS AND DEEP LAYER RH BEGIN TO INCREASE
ACROSS THE REGION...EXPECT A FEW MAINLY AFTERNOON/EVENING
SHWRS/TSTMS TO DEVELOP ALONG SEA BREEZE AS IT PUSHES INLAND...AND
WILL CARRY SLGT CHC POPS THU THROUGH SAT.

TEMPERATURES THROUGH THE EXTENDED ARE EXPECTED TO RUN CLOSE TO CLIMO.

&&

.AVIATION /12Z SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
MORE UNSETTLED WX THIS FCST PERIOD...WITH PERIODS OF MVFR OR IFR
CIGS/VSBYS IN OCNL SHRA AS BANDS OF PRECIP CONTINUE TO ROTATE
AROUND WEAK LOW PRES OFF THE SE GA AND NE FL COASTS.

PRECIP AT KCHS HAS BECOME MORE STRATIFORM THIS MORNING AND HAVE
INITIALIZED THE 12Z TAFS WITH OCNL LIFR CONDITIONS THRU
14Z...ALONG WITH WIND SHEAR BASED ON UPPER AIR DATA FROM THE 12Z
FLIGHT. PRECIP TO PERSIST AT LEAST THRU MUCH OF THE FCST
PERIOD...BUT TREND SHOULD BE FOR A DECREASE IN ACTIVITY LATER
TONIGHT AS THE ATLC LOW BEGINS TO SHIFT A LITTLE FURTHER OFF THE
COAST.

OCNL MODERATE TO PERHAPS HEAVY SHRA WILL IMPACT KSAV INTO THIS
AFTN...WITH PREVAILING IFR CONDITIONS LOWERING AT TIMES TO LIFR
THRU 18Z. SHOULD BE ABLE TO SEE SLIGHT IMPROVEMENT IN VSBYS AND
CIGS AFTER 18Z...BUT POTENTIAL STILL EXISTS FOR HEAVIER SHRA TO
MOVE BACK IN. CONFIDENCE IS NOT HIGH ENOUGH ON TIMING TO GO
ANYTHING LOWER THAN 6SM -SHRA AND OVC035 AT THIS TIME. AMENDMENTS
MAY BECOME NECESSARY.

WINDS AT BOTH TERMINALS WILL BE NELY THIS FCST PERIOD...AND WE
MIGHT EVEN BE A LITTLE UNDERDONE ON OUR WINDS GIVEN 20 KT OR
GREATER IN THE BOUNDARY LAYER. HOWEVER...CLOUD COVER WILL LIMIT
MIXING...THUS HAVE GONE NO HIGHER THAN 14 KT. KEEP IN MIND THAT
WITH THESE WINDS IN THE LOWEST FEW THOUSAND FEET...ANY SHRA OR
TSRA DOES HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO CREATE WIND GUSTS PAST 25 KT. WILL
ALSO NEED TO KEEP WATCH ON WIND SHEAR AT TERMINALS TONIGHT

EXTENDED AVIATION OUTLOOK...WILL NEED TO WATCH FOR MARGINAL LLWS
LATE TONIGHT...OTHERWISE IMPROVING CONDITIONS BY LATER MON OR TUE.

&&

.MARINE...
WEAK LOW PRES TRYING TO TAKE SHAPE OFF THE SE GA COAST...WHILE A
COOL FRONT AND ASSOCIATED WIND SURGE IS FOUND ACROSS THE NRN
WATERS. THE LOW WILL DRIFT E TODAY AND TONIGHT WHILE THE FRONT
PUSHES INTO AND THRU MUCH IF NOT ALL OF THE CWFA BY MON MORNING AS
STRONG HIGH PRES BUILDS FROM THE N AND NE. EVENTUALLY THAT HIGH
WILL LIKELY MOVE INTO THE WATERS BY LATE TUE AND WED...WHILE THE
LOW CONTINUES TO DRIFT E AWAY FROM THE COAST. HOWEVER...POTENTIAL
DOES EXIST FOR THE LOW TO STRENGTHEN WITH TIME AS IT ENCOUNTERS
THE GULF STREAM AND ALL MARINE INTERESTS THROUGHOUT THE WEEK NEED
TO MAINTAIN ABREAST OF THE LATEST FCSTS FOR THE SW ATLC WATERS.

PINCHED GRADIENT NOW TAKING PLACE ACROSS THE NRN AND CENTRAL WATERS
WILL ONLY STRENGTHEN FURTHER AS THE COOL FRONT MOVES THRU THIS
MORNING AND THIS AFTN. GEOSTROPHIC WINDS AT 1000 MB ARE UPWARDS TO
30 KT...WHILE SOUNDINGS SHOW 20 KT OR MORE IN THE BOUNDARY LAYER. AS
A RESULT WILL MAINTAIN THE SCSEC FOR AMZ350 AND AMZ352...BUT
INITIATE SCA FOR CHS HARBOR WHERE WE SHOULD BE ABLE TO ACHIEVE 20 KT
WINDS.

DEPENDING UPON THE STRENGTH OF THE PINCHING TODAY...THERE IS A
DECENT CHANCE THAT SCA/S WILL NEED TO BE RAISED FOR THE SC ATLC
WATERS. BUT SINCE PREVIOUS FCST ONLY HAD 15 KT AND SCSEC BLENDS
BETTER WITH WFO ILM...WE THOUGHT IT BEST TO ONLY GO WITH SCSEC AT
THIS TIME. DAY CREW CAN RAISE THE SCA FLAGS IF GRADIENT IS STRONGER.

FURTHER S ACROSS THE GA WATERS WINDS WILL BE LESS DUE TO THE CLOSER
PROXIMITY TO THE ATLC LOW AND THUS A LIGHTER GRADIENT.
HOWEVER...BOTH 41008 AND SABSOON R2 TOWER HAVE BEEN REPORTING 5 FOOT
SEAS. AS A RESULT OF THIS AND PERHAPS SOME PINCHING OVER THE NRN
PORTION OF AMZ354 LATER TODAY...WILL MAINTAIN SCSEC FOR ALL GA
WATERS.

CONDITIONS WILL CHANGE LITTLE TONIGHT/MON...WITH EVEN SOME INCREASE
IN WINDS ACROSS THE GA WATERS AS THE LOW SHIFTS FURTHER E AND SOME
PINCHING OF THE PRES GRADIENT MAY FORM TO ITS NW. FINALLY BY TUE
WITH THE CIRCULATION OF THE LOW EXPECTED TO EITHER WEAKEN OR SHIFT
AWAY FROM THE COASTAL WATERS WILL WE SEE SOME IMPROVEMENT. THIS
SHOULD CONTINUE THRU MID WEEK AS THE HIGH TO THE N TRIES TO SETTLE
INTO THE AREA. OF COURSE...THE FCST IS SUBJECT TO CHANGES AT A LATER
TIME DEPENDING UPON HOW MUCH DEEPENING OCCURS WITH THE ATLC LOW.

RIP CURRENTS...LOCAL RIP CURRENT GUIDANCE RESULTS IN A BORDERLINE
LOW TO MODERATE RISK TODAY...ESP OVER THE SC BEACHES. HOWEVER...WITH
STRONGER WINDS TODAY THAN YESTERDAY...A CONTINUATION OF TIDES
RUNNING ABOVE PREDICTED LEVELS...THE FACT THAT IT IS A HOLIDAY
WEEKEND...WILL GO AHEAD AND RAISE TO A MODERATE RISK OF RIP CURRENTS
ALONG THE SC BEACHES. FOR THE GA COAST...WINDS DO NOT LOOK TO BE
QUITE AS STRONG AND FLOW MAY BECOME SLIGHTLY OFFSHORE WITH NNE
DIRECTION. THUS WILL KEEP LOW RISK GOING THERE...BUT CLOSELY MONITOR
THROUGHOUT THE DAY TO SEE IF A MODERATE RISK IF MORE APPROPRIATE.

&&

.TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING...
TIDES ARE CONSISTENTLY RUNNING ABOVE PREDICTED LEVELS AND THE
SITUATION WOULD BE FURTHER COMPLICATED BY ANY HEAVY RAINS AROUND THE
TIMES OF HIGH TIDE. WITH STRONG ONSHORE WINDS DEVELOPING ALONG THE
SC COAST THERE IS CERTAINLY THE POTENTIAL FOR SHALLOW COASTAL
FLOODING WITH THE EARLY AFTN HIGH TIDE. RISK IS NOT AS GREAT ALONG
THE GA COAST WITH A LITTLE LESS WIND AND DEPARTURES THAT NEED TO BE
HIGHER THAN OVER THE SC COAST.

MINOR BEACH EROSION MAY STILL OCCUR AROUND THE TIMES OF HIGH TIDE
TODAY THROUGH LABOR DAY. WILL MAINTAIN MENTION IN THE HWO.
