AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHARLESTON SC
431 PM EDT WED AUG 15 2007

.SYNOPSIS...
A WEAK SURFACE TROUGH WILL DEVELOP ACROSS THE MIDLANDS THROUGH
EAST-CENTRAL GEORGIA AND PERSIST THROUGH LATE WEEK...AS AN
ATLANTIC SURFACE RIDGE EXTENDS WEST INTO COASTAL AREAS.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM THURSDAY MORNING/...
ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS HAVE DEVELOPED ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA
THIS AFTERNOON ALONG THE SEABREEZE BOUNDARY. THESE STORMS CAN PRODUCE
FREQUENT LIGHTNING...HEAVY RAIN AND STRONG WINDS. THE POSSIBILITY
REMAINS FOR SOME OF THESE STORMS TO INCREASE TO SEVERE LEVELS WITH
PENNY SIZED HAIL AND DAMAGING WINDS. HAVE UPDATED GRIDS FOR THIS
AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING TO REFLECT A SLIGHT CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS
UNTIL AROUND 00Z. SINCE CONVECTION HAS BEEN DEPENDENT ON DAYTIME
INSTABILITY AND SEABREEZE PROGRESSION...EXPECT ANY LINGERING
STORMS TO DIMINISH BY SUNSET. HAVE THEN MAINTAINED DRY WEATHER AND
MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES OVERNIGHT.

HEAT ADVISORY HAS WORKED WELL FOR MANY AREAS ACROSS THE FORECAST
AREA THIS AFTERNOON. WILL ALLOW THE ADVISORY TO CONTINUE WITH THE
AFTERNOON PACKAGE...HOWEVER SUBSEQUENT SHIFT MAY BE ABLE TO TAKE
THE ADVISORY DOWN AN HOUR OR TWO EARLY DEPENDING ON TEMPERATURE
TRENDS AFTER 6 PM EDT. LOW TEMPERATURES TONIGHT WILL RANGE FROM
THE LOWER TO MID 70S INLAND...WITH THE UPPER 70S TO AROUND 80 NEAR
THE COAST.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM THURSDAY MORNING THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT/...
UPPER LEVEL RIDGE WILL CONTINUE TO BUILD OVER THE SOUTHEAST ON
THURSDAY...WITH THE ATLANTIC SURFACE HIGH ALSO MAINTAINING CONTROL
ALONG THE COAST. SEABREEZE WILL AGAIN FORM BY LATE MORNING/EARLY
AFTERNOON UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF ONSHORE FLOW. MODERATE INSTABILITY
SHOULD ALLOW A FEW THUNDERSTORMS TO INITIATE ALONG THE SEABREEZE
BOUNDARY THURSDAY AFTERNOON. AT THIS POINT...MODEL QPF FIELDS AND
GUIDANCE VALUES SUGGEST VERY LITTLE COVERAGE OF CONVECTIVE
ACTIVITY. SINCE PATTERN WILL BE SIMILAR TO TODAY...AND ISOLATED
THUNDERSTORMS HAVE BEEN ABLE TO INITIATE FROM BERKELEY COUNTY
SOUTHWARD TO EFFINGHAM COUNTY THIS AFTERNOON...WOULD RATHER
MAINTAIN THE SLIGHT CHANCE POPS FOR THE MAJORITY OF THE FORECAST
AREA THURSDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING.

HIGH TEMPERATURES IN THE MID TO UPPER 90S INLAND...AND IN THE
UPPER 80S ALONG THE COAST...WILL COMBINE WITH THE PERSISTENT
MODERATE HUMIDITY LEVELS TO ALLOW FOR ANOTHER DAY WITH HEAT
INDICES ABOVE 105 DEGREES. HAVE THUS ISSUED A HEAT ADVISORY FOR
THURSDAY.

DAYTIME HEATING AND INSTABILITY WILL DIMINISH AROUND
SUNSET...BRINGING AN END TO ANY THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY BY EARLY
THURSDAY EVENING. LOW TEMPERATURES THURSDAY NIGHT WILL BE IN THE
MID 70S INLAND TO AROUND 80 ALONG THE COAST.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
SHORT WAVE TO MOVE AROUND THE ENE PERIPHERY OF THE RIDGE ALOFT ON
FRI. THE RIDGE WILL CONTINUE TO BUILD SAT INTO NEXT WEEK...WITH
INCREASING HEIGHTS THRU AT LEAST MON OR TUE. TUTT LOW NEAR THE
BAHAMAS FRI WILL SHIFT W...AND AS THIS HAPPENS AND THE RIDGE BUILDS
IT IS EXPECTED TO STEER TROPICAL CYCLONE DEAN W THRU THE CARIBBEAN
TOWARD THE YUCATAN PENINSULA.

MEANWHILE IN THE LOW LEVELS AND AT THE SURFACE A WEAK FRONTAL
BOUNDARY WILL TRY TO MOVE IN FROM THE NW FRI NIGHT AND SAT...BUT
WILL LIFT BACK N OR DISSIPATE BY SUN AS THE ATLC RIDGE BUILDS INTO
THE FCST AREA.

INSTABILITY PARAMETERS LOOK GOOD FOR POSSIBLE STRONG OR EVEN SEVERE
TSTMS ON FRI. CAPE VALUES 2000-3000 J/KG...TTI OF 45 TO 50 AND KI
APPROACHING 40. WITH THE INCREASING WIND FIELDS...THE SHORT WAVE
ALOFT AND APPROACHING FRONTAL BOUNDARY...LIKELY PRECEDED BY A TROUGH
OF LOW PRES WILL CONTINUE MENTION OF SEVERE WX IN THE HWO.

HIGHEST POPS WILL BE FRI...MAINLY IN THE SCATTERED RANGE.
UNCERTAINTY ON REMNANTS OF THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY ON SAT...SO WILL
KEEP SLIGHT CHC OR CHC POPS ACROSS THE AREA. THEREAFTER...DEEP
LAYERED SUBSIDENCE WILL LIMIT POPS TO NO MORE THAN SLIGHT CHANCE
INTO THE MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK.

TEMPS AND HUMIDITY LEVELS LOOK HIGH ENOUGH TO SUPPORT POSSIBLE HEAT
ADVISORIES AT LEAST THRU SUN OR MON.

&&

.AVIATION /19Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
LOWER CONVECTIVE TEMPS AND A WEAKER CAP THAN YESTERDAY HAVE
ALLOWED FOR QUICKER DEVELOPMENT OF BUILDING CUMULUS TODAY...WHICH
IS RESULTING IN SOME ISOLATED CONVECTION ALREADY DEVELOPING. WILL
CARRY CUMULONIMBUS CLOUDS AT BOTH KCHS AND KSAV THRU 23Z...AND
KEEP WATCH FOR POSSIBLE SHRA OR TSRA AT EITHER SITE AS THE SEA
BREEZE PUSHES SLOWLY INLAND.

SKIES WILL CLEAR TONIGHT WITH WINDS DECOUPLING. THIS WILL ALLOW
FOR AT LEAST 5-6SM IN HAZE AND/OR LIGHT FOG OVERNIGHT INTO THU
MORNING...WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR A PERIOD OF EVEN LOWER CONDITIONS
IF WE ARE ABLE TO REACH OUR CROSS-OVER TEMP.

POTENTIAL DOES EXIST FOR WIND SHEAR TONIGHT...BUT IT LOOKS
MARGINAL AT BEST. AVIATION FORECASTER WILL NEED TO TAKE A LOOK AT
WINDS ON THE 00Z SOUNDING TO HELP IN THE DECISION AS TO WHETHER OR
NOT TO ADD TO THE TAFS.

EXTENDED AVIATION OUTLOOK...WILL NEED TO KEEP WATCH FOR MVFR
CONDITIONS IN POSSIBLE HAZE...LIGHT EARLY MORNING FOG AND/OR
CONVECTION THROUGH THE PERIOD.

&&

.MARINE...
ATLANTIC HIGH PRESSURE WILL EXTEND OVER THE MARINE AREA THROUGH
FRIDAY MORNING. THIS WILL LEAD TO A GENERAL S TO SW FLOW. WIND
SPEEDS WILL REMAIN GENERALLY AOB 15 KT. BOUNDARY LAYER WINDS IN
BOTH GFS AND NAM INCREASE THURSDAY NIGHT AS A RESULT OF THE
INCREASING PRESSURE GRADIENT BETWEEN THE OFFSHORE ATLANTIC HIGH
PRESSURE AND THE INLAND TROUGH. HAVE MENTIONED WINDS IN THE OUTER
GEORGIA WATERS INCREASING TO 15 TO 20 KT AS A RESULT. AN
OCCASIONAL GUST TO 20 KT MAY ALSO BE POSSIBLE THURSDAY NIGHT IN
THE WESTERN SECTIONS OF THE SC WATERS...AS WELL AS THE OUTER
GEORGIA MARINE ZONES.

THE ATLC RIDGE WILL EXTEND W ACROSS FL AND GA ON FRI...THEN GIVE WAY
TO AN APPROACHING WEAK COOL FRONT FRI NIGHT AND EARLY SAT. QUESTIONS
REMAIN ON HOW FAR SE THE FRONT WILL GET...AS THE ATLC RIDGE BEGINS
TO BUILD BACK NW DURING THE WEEKEND. THIS RIDGE WILL THEN EXTEND
ACROSS THE COASTAL WATERS THROUGH THE FIRST PART OF NEXT WEEK.

THERE COULD BE SOME PINCHING OF THE PRES GRADIENT FRI INTO FRI NIGHT
AHEAD OF THE COOL FRONT...AND THERE COULD BE SOME WIND UP TO 20 KT.
THESE HIGHER WINDS WILL ALLOW FOR SEAS TO CLIMB TO AT LEAST 4 OR 5
FT...AND THERE MAY BE A NEED FOR AT LEAST SCSEC HEADLINES LATE IN
THE WEEK.

TRICKY WIND FCST ON SAT DEPENDING UPON POSITION OF THE COOL
FRONT...BUT WILL ALLOW FOR THE FRONT TO EITHER LIFT BACK N OR
DISSIPATE BY SUN. THUS WINDS COULD BRIEFLY TURN TO NE ACROSS THE SC
WATERS SAT...BUT WILL VEER TO SE OR S AGAIN BY SUN...AND REMAIN SELY
EARLY NEXT WEEK.

ALTHOUGH WINDS WILL LIKELY BE NO HIGHER THAN 15 KT SAT THRU
MON...WITH A CONTINUED LONG FETCH AROUND THE ATLC RIDGE THERE WILL
EVENTUALLY BE AN INCREASE IN SEAS SUN AND MON.

RIP CURRENTS...WITH A PERSISTENT AND LONG FETCH OFF THE ATLC AROUND
THE RIDGE...SWELLS WILL LIKELY BEGIN TO INCREASE EARLY NEXT WEEK. AS
A RESULT WE COULD BE LOOKING AT AN ENHANCED RISK OF RIP CURRENTS.
WILL ADD THIS TO THE HWO.
