AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHARLESTON SC
500 PM EST TUE FEB 13 2007

.SHORT TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT/...
LATEST CLX RADAR SHOWS THE FIRST LINE OF THUNDERSTORMS JUST WEST OF
TATTNALL COUNTY AT THIS HOUR. FOR MOST OF THE AFTERNOON...SHOWER
ACTIVITY HAS BEEN WITHIN THE NORTHERN TIER OF THE FORECAST AREA AS A
RESULT OF PERSISTENT ONSHORE FLOW. UPON COLLABORATION WITH
SPC...GEORGIA COUNTIES ARE NOW IN A SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH UNTIL
02Z TONIGHT.

NEGATIVELY TILTED UPPER SHORTWAVE CONTINUES TO MAKE EAST/NORTHEAST
PROGRESS THIS AFTERNOON...SPAWNING A LINE OF STRONG TO SEVERE
THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE LOWER MISS VALLY AND INTO THE SOUTHEASTERN
STATES. THE NOSE OF A 130 KT JET ACROSS THE NORTHERN GOMEX WILL
GRADUALLY LIFT NORTHWARD THROUGH THE EVENING. MANY LOCATIONS IN
SOUTHEAST SC AND GA ARE REPORTING DEWPOINTS AS HIGH AS THE LOWER
60S...WHILE LATEST RUC MESOANALYSIS SHOWS LOW LEVEL LAPSE RATES AND
CAPE VALUES INDICATIVE A UNSTABLE CONDITIONS. THUS THE COMBINATION
OF MOISTURE AND INSTABILITY MAY MAINTAIN THE APPROACHING STORMS AS
THEY APPROACH THE SOUTHERN CWA.

THERE IS SOME MODEL DISAGREEMENT IN THE TRACK OF THE LOW CENTER
THROUGH THE EVENING. GFS BRINGS THE LOW OFFSHORE OF THE SC/NC BORDER
BEFORE IT INTENSIFIES OVER THE WATER. NAM TRACKS THE LOW FURTHER
NORTH AND INLAND. AFTER COLLABORATION WITH NEIGHBORING
OFFICES...PREFER THE MORE NORTHERLY TRACK OF THE LOW. WILL END THE
THUNDERSTORM RISK QUITE QUICKLY AFTER MIDNIGHT BY CONSIDERING THE
PROGRESSIVE NATURE OF THE SYSTEM. CATEGORICAL AND LIKELY POPS ACROSS
THE CWA WITH CHANCE THUNDERSTORMS WILL DROP TO A SLIGHT CHANCE OF
SHOWERS LATE.

THERE DOES NOT APPEAR TO BE ANY STRONG COLD ADVECTION BEHIND THE
SYSTEM AT THIS POINT. HIGHS ON WEDNESDAY RANGING FROM AROUND 60
DEGREES TO THE LOWER 60S WILL BE NOTICEABLY COOLER THAN TODAY...BUT
STILL BE WITHIN A FEW DEGREES OF SEASONAL NORMS. THE 180 KT SECTION
OF THE UPPER JET WILL BE MOVING DIRECTLY OVER THE CWA WEDNESDAY WITH
LOW LEVEL WINDS UP TO 30 KT CONTINUING THROUGH AT LEAST THE EARLY
AFTERNOON. WIND PROFILES FOR TOMORROW THUS LOOK QUITE IMPRESSIVE.
COMBINED WITH A TIGHT SURFACE GRADIENT BETWEEN THE DEPARTING LOW AND
AN EXPANSIVE HIGH ACROSS THE CENTRAL CONUS...EXPECT TO SEE BREEZY
CONDITIONS FOR MOST OF THE CWA WEDNESDAY.  BOTH NAM AND GFS
SOUNDINGS SUGGEST THAT SOME MID LEVEL CLOUDS MAY LINGER THROUGH
EARLY WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON...WITH MODEL RH FIELDS INDICATING THE MOST
SIGNIFICANT PUSH OF DRIER AIR TOWARD WEDNESDAY EVENING. LOWS
WEDNESDAY NIGHT ARE EXPECTED TO FALL INTO THE LOWER TO MID 30S.
&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
A LARGE AREA OF HIGH PRESSURE WILL BEGIN TO BUILD INTO THE REGION
FROM THE WEST THURSDAY AND THURSDAY NIGHT...WITH FAIR WEATHER AND
UNSEASONABLY COOL TEMPERATURES EXPECTED. THE HIGH WILL SHIFT TO THE
GULF COAST REGION ON FRIDAY...WHILE AN UPPER LEVEL SHORT WAVE
CROSSES THE AREA. THE STRONG COLD AIR ADVECTION FOLLOWING THE SHORT
WAVE WILL ALLOW THICKNESS VALUES/850 MB TEMPERATURES TO PLUMMET...
WHILE STRONG/DRY WEST-NORTHWEST WINDS WILL IMPACT THE AREA. THE MEX
GUIDANCE APPEARS MUCH TOO WARM GIVEN THE PATTERN...AND HAVE UNDERCUT
VALUES SIGNIFICANTLY TO BETTER CORRELATE WITH WHAT THE THICKNESS
VALUES WOULD SUGGEST FOR HIGHS. AS A RESULT...EXPECT HIGH
TEMPERATURES FRIDAY ONLY IN THE 40S. CONTINUED COLD AIR ADVECTION
INTO FRIDAY NIGHT IN COMBINATION WITH CLEAR SKIES WILL BRING LOW
TEMPERATURES DOWN WELL INTO THE 20S AWAY FROM THE COAST...WITH WIND
CHILL VALUES POSSIBLY IN THE TEENS.

HIGH PRESSURE WILL PASS SOUTH OF THE AREA SATURDAY...WITH A
SOUTHWEST RETURN FLOW DEVELOPING THUS ALLOWING TEMPERATURES TO
MODERATE SOME. AN UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE WILL PASS SATURDAY
NIGHT...AND IF THERE IS ENOUGH MOISTURE RECOVERY MAY BE ABLE TO
GENERATE A FEW SHOWERS. HAVE THEREFORE INTRODUCED A SLIGHT CHANCE OF
SHOWERS INTO THE FORECAST SATURDAY NIGHT.

A COMBINATION OF GFS AND ECMWF WAS USED FOR SUNDAY THROUGH TUESDAY
BASED ON A DECENT AGREEMENT AND HANDLE OF CONDITIONS OBSERVED.
SHOWER ACTIVITY IS EXPECTED TO END EARLY SUNDAY MORNING AS A COLD
FRONT AND STRONG H5 SHORTWAVE PUSH OFFSHORE. CONDITIONS SHOULD
RETURN TO A DRY WEST/NORTHWEST DOWNSLOPE FLOW ONCE HIGH PRESSURE
SETTLES IN BEHIND THE COLD FRONT. THIS HIGH PRESSURE IS EXPECTED TO
CUT OFF MOST MOISTURE SUPPLY TO OUR CWA...ESPECIALLY IN THE LOW
LVLS. LIGHT WINDS CAN ALSO BE EXPECTED UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF THIS
HIGH PRESSURE. EXPECT THESE CONDITIONS TO REMAIN THROUGH EARLY
TUESDAY AS WE ENTER A MORE ZONAL FLOW PATTERN ONCE FRONTAL PASSAGE
OCCURS SUNDAY MORNING. WITH FEW CLOUDS EXPECTED UNDER THIS DRY
FLOW...A DECENT RADIATIONAL COOLING SETUP SHOULD OCCUR DURING NIGHT
HOURS ALLOWING LOW TEMPS TO REMAIN 5 TO 10 DEGREES BELOW CLIMATOLOGY
FOR SUNDAY AND MONDAY NIGHT WITH LOW TEMPS NEAR 30 INLAND AND MID
30S ALONG THE COAST. HIGHS ARE EXPECTED TO REMAIN COOL IN THE LOW
50S MONDAY AFTERNOON.

FOR TUESDAY...A SWITCH IN IN THE PATTERN BEGINS AS A NEW SYSTEM OVER
THE CENTRAL USA BEGINS TO DEVELOP AND TRACKS TO THE NORTHEASTERN
USA. SFC WINDS SHOULD MAKE A SHIFT TO A SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW ALLOWING
SOME MOISTURE TO RETURN AND HIGH TEMPERATURES TO REBOUND TO THE
LOWER 60S EXCEPT ALONG THE COAST WHERE MID TO UPPER 50S MAY BE
OBSERVED.
&&

.MARINE...
EAST TO SOUTHEAST WINDS PREVAIL ACROSS THE WATERS THIS AFTERNOON.
APPROACHING LINE OF STORMS ASSOCIATED WITH A STRONG LOW PRESSURE
SYSTEM MOVING TO THE NORTHWEST COULD AFFECT MARINE ZONES IN THE NEXT
FEW HOURS. A SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH HAS BEEN EXTENDED INTO THE
NEARSHORE GEORGIA WATERS UNTIL 02Z TONIGHT...WITH A TORNADO WATCH IN
THE SOUTH CAROLINA NEARSHORE WATERS THROUGH 05Z.

WINDS WILL VEER AROUND TO THE WEST LATE TONIGHT AS THE LOW SYSTEM
PASSES JUST TO THE NORTHEAST OF THE FORECAST AREA. MAIN MARINE
CONCERN INVOLVES INCREASING WINDS ON WEDNESDAY. PRESSURE GRADIENT
BEHIND THE SURFACE LOW DEPARTING TO THE NORTHEAST AND THE BUILDING
HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE CENTRAL CONUS WILL BE QUITE STRONG...AND WILL
RESULT IN SCA CONDITIONS FOR THE NEARSHORE SC AND OFFSHORE GA
WATERS. THERE IS SOME UNCERTAINTY IN SCA CONDITIONS BEING MET IN THE
HARBOR WEDNESDAY...SO HAVE DELAYED ISSUING AN ADVISORY FOR THIS ZONE
BY CAPPING WINDS AT 15 TO 20 KNOTS. CONDITIONS EXPECTED TO IMPROVE
BY WEDNESDAY EVENING AS PRESSURE GRADIENT RELAXES.

HIGH PRESSURE WILL BEGIN TO BUILD OVER THE WATERS FROM THE WEST
THURSDAY...WITH A NORTHERLY FLOW EXPECTED TO WEAKEN AND SHIFT
WESTERLY LATER IN THE DAY. THE OFFSHORE FLOW WILL STRENGTHEN
SIGNIFICANTLY THURSDAY NIGHT AS STRONG COLD AIR ADVECTION COMMENCES
ACROSS THE WATERS...WITH CONDITIONS POSSIBLY REACHING SMALL CRAFT
ADVISORY CRITERIA. THE PERSISTENT COLD AIR ADVECTION WILL KEEP THE
STRONG OFFSHORE FLOW IN PLACE THROUGH FRIDAY. A RETURN SOUTHWEST
FLOW WILL DEVELOP SATURDAY AHEAD OF THE NEXT UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE
THAT IS EXPECTED TO CROSS THE AREA SATURDAY NIGHT.
&&

.AVIATION...
WEATHER AT BOTH TAF SITES WILL CONTINUE TO DETERIORATE THIS
AFTERNOON AND EVENING AS A STRONG LINE OF STORMS APPROACHES FROM THE
WEST. LOWERED CIGS AND REDUCED VSBYS WITHIN RAIN SHOWERS WILL BE
POSSIBLE THROUGH AT LEAST 03Z TONIGHT. EXPECT MOST OF THE RAIN AND
ANY THUNDERSTORMS TO BE OUT OF THE AREA AFTER MIDNIGHT...HOWEVER
CIGS MAY REMAIN LOW UNTIL SUNRISE. A TIGHT PRESSURE GRADIENT BEHIND
THE STRONG LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM...AS WELL AS A 30 KT LOW LEVEL
JET...WILL RESULT IN GUSTY CONDITIONS AT BOTH KSAV AND KCHS
WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON.
&&

.FIRE WEATHER...
A VERY DRY AIRMASS WILL ENCOMPASS THE REGION LATER IN THE
WEEK...WITH NEAR CRITICAL TO CRITICAL RH VALUES EXPECTED THURSDAY
THROUGH SATURDAY. THERE IS SOME CONCERN THAT STRONG COLD AIR
ADVECTION ON FRIDAY COULD ALLOW WINDS TO REACH RED FLAG
CRITERIA...SO THIS WILL NEED TO BE CLOSELY MONITORED OVER THE NEXT
COUPLE OF DAYS.
&&

.LAKE WINDS...
A STRONG SURFACE PRESSURE GRADIENT WEDNESDAY WILL RESULT IN
INCREASING WINDS ACROSS LAKE MOULTRIE. HAVE THEREFORE ISSUED A LAKE
WIND ADVISORY FROM WEDNESDAY MORNING UNTIL THE EVENING.
&&

.CHS WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
GA...NONE.
SC...LAKE WIND ADVISORY FROM 9 AM TO 7 PM EST WEDNESDAY FOR SCZ045.
MARINE...SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY FROM 9 AM TO 7 PM EST WEDNESDAY FOR
      AMZ350-372.
      SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY FROM 1 AM WEDNESDAY TO 1 AM EST THURSDAY
      FOR AMZ374.
