AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GREENVILLE-SPARTANBURG SC
238 AM EST THU FEB 22 2007

.SHORT TERM /TODAY THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT/...
THE UPPER LEVEL PATTERN AMPLIFIES TODAY AS A RIDGE BUILDS JUST
EAST OF THE ROCKIES. A SHORTWAVE DIVES INTO THE BASE OF THE
WESTERN ATLANTIC LONGWAVE TROUGH TODAY...PASSING BY JUST TO OUR
NORTH...BUT ACCOMPANIED BY STRING WINDS ALOFT. WINDS WILL REMAIN
DECOUPLED ACROSS PARTS OF THE LEE OF THE MOUNTAINS EARLY THIS
MORNING WITH FOG AND LOW CLOUDS...BUT MIXING SHOULD DESSICATE THE
LOWER LEVELS AND TRANSPORT GUSTY WINDS TO THE SURFACE. THE NAM IS
QUITE A BIT WINDIER THAN THE GFS...AND THE SREF MEAN WOULD LEND
SUPPORT TO THE NAM. A HIGH WIND WARNING WILL BE POSTED FOR THE
NORTHERN NC MOUNTAINS AND ADJACENT BLUE RIDGE FOR TODAY AND
TONIGHT...WITH A WIND ADVISORY IN THE FRENCH BROAD RIVER VALLEY
AND BALSAM MOUNTAINS...ALSO THROUGH TONIGHT. THE REST OF THE
FORECAST AREA GETS LAKE WIND ADVISORY FOR TODAY.

MODEL GUIDANCE SUPPORTS EVEN WARM MAXIMUM TEMPERATURES
TODAY...BUT WITH SO MUCH MIXING...THE HIGHER END OF GUIDANCE IN
THE MAV WILL BE AVOIDED. MINIMUM TEMPERATURES TONIGHT WERE
ADJUSTED DOWN SLIGHTLY IN THE NORTH AND EAST FOR A BETTER FIT WITH
SURROUNDING OFFICES. SOME MOISTURE IS SPREAD SOUTH ALONG THE WEST
SIDE OF THE NORTHERN MOUNTAINS THIS EVENING...BUT SHOULD ONLY BE
ENOUGH FOR SOME LOW CLOUDS...AND NO SHOWERS WILL BE CARRIED THERE.

THE PRES GRADIENT WILL RELAX FRIDAY THROUGH SATURDAY AS THE UPPER
RIDGE AXIS MOVES OVER THE FORECAST AREA. THE DEEP LOW PRESSURE
SYSTEM IN THE PLAINS ON SAT WILL MOVE NORTHEAST TO THE GREAT LAKES
THROUGH SUNDAY. THE CONVECTION IN THE DEEP SOUTH IS EXPECTED TO RUN
OUT WELL AHEAD OF THE PARENT STORM SYSTEM...WITH THE DEEPEST
MOISTURE AND LIFT CROSSING THE FORECAST AREA EARLY SUNDAY. SHEAR
CONTINUES TO LOOK TREMENDOUS WITH THE SYSTEM SUNDAY...BUT
INSTABILITY HAS WAFFLED FROM RUN TO RUN. WILL CONTINUE POSSIBLE
THUNDER MENTION IN THE HWO FOR SUNDAY.

&&

.LONG TERM /MONDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
THE GREAT LAKES LOW WILL GRADUALLY FILL ON MONDAY...BUT IT SHOULD
SEND A SHORTWAVE TROUGH SOUTHEAST INTO THE SOUTHERN APPALACHIANS BY
TUESDAY. MOISTURE APPEARS TO BE QUITE LIMITED WITH THIS
WAVE...WARRANTING MAINLY SLIGHT CHANCE POPS. RIDGING IS THEN
ANTICIPATED ON WEDNESDAY AS THE SYSTEM MOVES EAST OFF THE COAST.

&&

.AVIATION /08Z-06Z/...
CEILINGS AND VISIBILITIES ARE RAPIDLY FALLING FROM MVFR TO IFR
ACROSS THE AREA. SOME SITES WITH MORE WIND WILL AVOID FALLING TO IFR
OVERNIGHT. MODEL GUIDANCE SUPPORTS INCREASING THE WIND BEFORE
DAWN...BUT THE ONLY PLACE THIS IS A SAFE BET IS IN THE MOUNTAINS.
MOISTURE IS RAPIDLY SWEPT EAST THIS MORNING AS MIXING OCCURS...
LEAVING FEW CLOUDS. WITH THE SURFACE GRADIENT TIGHTENING AND
DOWNWARD MOTION INCREASING...SURFACE WINDS WILL BECOME QUITE
GUSTY FROM THE NORTHWEST BY MID MORNING...DECREASING SOME AFTER
DUSK EAST OF THE MOUNTAINS...BUT REMAINING UP THROUGH THE EVENING
AT KAVL.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...
THE WIND SHOULD EASILY REACH RED FLAG CRITERIA TODAY...BUT
RELATIVE HUMIDITY LEVELS WILL BE ABOVE 25 PERCENT. COORDINATION
WITH GA AND SC OFFICIALS YESTERDAY INDICATED THAT FUEL MOISTURE
WOULD BE ELEVATED SLIGHTLY FROM RAINFALL YESTERDAY. NORTH CAROLINA
FUELS ARE MORE MARGINAL...BUT THE ONLY PLACES THAT EVEN COME CLOSE
TO 25 PERCENT ARE MACON...POLK...AND ROWAN COUNTIES. A FIRE DANGER
STATEMENT WILL BE CONSIDERED FOR THESE AREAS.
