AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHARLESTON SC
345 PM EDT SAT JUL 5 2008

.SYNOPSIS...
HIGH PRESSURE WILL REMAIN ANCHORED OVER THE ATLANTIC THROUGH NEXT
WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
INLAND TROUGH HAS STRENGTHENED THIS AFTERNOON...WITH ATLANTIC HIGH
PRESSURE LINGERING OFFSHORE. UPPER LEVEL TROUGH STRETCHES FROM THE
GREAT LAKES REGION SOUTHWESTWARD INTO THE TENNESSEE VALLEY. WITHIN
DECENT INSTABILITY AND INCREASED MOISTURE...SCATTERED STRONG TO
SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS HAVE DEVELOPED ALONG THE SEABREEZE DURING THE
PAST FEW HOURS. SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS HAVE PRODUCED DAMAGING
WINDS...PENNY SIZED HAIL AND HEAVY DOWNPOURS RESULTING IN LOCAL
FLOODING. SEVERE STORMS REMAIN POSSIBLE THROUGH THE REST OF THE
AFTERNOON AND INTO THE EVENING...AS THE SEABREEZE PUSHES INLAND
AND POSSIBLY INTERACTS WITH LINGERING BOUNDARIES.

WILL CONTINUE TO MENTION A CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS FOR MAINLY THE
INLAND AREAS AFTER SUNSET WITH THE INLAND PROGRESSION OF THE
SEABREEZE. HAVE THEN CONTINUED WITH A SLIGHT CHANCE FOR
SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS AFTER MIDNIGHT...AS UPPER LEVEL SUPPORT MAY
BE ABLE TO KEEP ISOLATED CONVECTION GOING PAST SUNSET...ESPECIALLY
IN THE VICINITY OF SEABREEZE AND OUTFLOW BOUNDARY INTERACTIONS.

&&

.SHORT TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT/...
UPPER LEVEL TROUGH WILL DIP FURTHER SOUTHEAST INTO THE EASTERN
OHIO/TENNESSEE VALLEYS ON SUNDAY...WHILE SHORTWAVE ACTIVITY
CONTINUES TO STREAM INTO THE FORECAST AREA ALONG THE BASE OF THE
TROUGH. MODEL SOUNDINGS INDICATE SOLID SOUTHWEST FLOW BRINGING
DEEP LAYER MOISTURE INTO THE SOUTHEAST STATES...WITH PWAT VALUES
INCREASING TO 2 INCHES BY SUNDAY AFTERNOON. IN ADDITION...GFS
ALSO INDICATES THE LOW LEVEL JET INCREASING OVER THE SOUTH
CAROLINA ZONES ON SUNDAY.

MORE FAVORABLE UPPER LEVEL DYNAMICS AND AN INCREASED MOISTURE
PROFILE...IN ADDITION TO TYPICAL SUMMERTIME SEABREEZE FORCING AND
INSTABILITY...SUGGEST THAT WIDESPREAD SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM
DEVELOPMENT ON SUNDAY IS LIKELY. INITIAL SHORTWAVE ENERGY WILL
SWING THROUGH THE SOUTH CAROLINA COUNTIES DURING THE MORNING/EARLY
AFTERNOON...SO HAVE MAINTAINED CHANCE POPS IN THE NORTHERN
FORECAST AREA AND SLIGHT CHANCE TO THE SOUTH BEFORE NOON. HAVE
THEN INCREASED POP VALUES INTO THE LIKELY CATEGORY DURING THE PEAK
HEATING AND INSTABILITY TIMES OF THE AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING.

THUNDERSTORMS THAT DEVELOP ON SUNDAY WILL HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO
BECOME SEVERE. STRONGEST STORMS WILL BE ABLE TO PRODUCE DAMAGING
WINDS AND LARGE HAIL...IN ADDITION TO DANGEROUS FREQUENT LIGHTNING
AND HEAVY DOWNPOURS. WILL CONTINUE TO MENTION SEVERE POTENTIAL IN
THE HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK.

SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM CHANCES WILL DECREASE SUNDAY NIGHT...AS
WOULD BE CLIMATOLOGICALLY EXPECTED WITH THE DIMINISHING HEATING
AND INSTABILITY. CONSIDERING THE DEEP MOISTURE AND PROGRESSIVE
UPPER LEVEL IMPULSES...WILL MAINTAIN SLIGHT CHANCE POPS AFTER
MIDNIGHT.

HIGH TEMPERATURES ON SUNDAY WILL BE A DEGREE OR TWO COOLER THAN
TODAY...WARMING INTO THE UPPER 80S TO AROUND 90 DEGREES AWAY FROM
THE COAST. OVERNIGHT LOWS WILL DROP INTO THE LOWER 70S INLAND.

&&

.LONG TERM /MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
MONDAY...THE MODELS CONTINUE TO DEPICT THE REGION BEING SANDWICHED
BETWEEN BROAD ATLANTIC HIGH PRESSURE TO THE EAST AND AN ELONGATED
SHORTWAVE TO THE WEST. A DEEP SOUTHWESTERLY MEAN FLOW WILL MAINTAIN
A RIBBON OF DEEP TROPICAL MOISTURE OVER THE REGION WITH PRECIPITABLE
WATER VALUES EXCEEDING 2 INCHES. THE COMBINATION OF A WEAK DIFLUENT
FLOW ALOFT...MODEST SURFACE BASED INSTABILITY AND LOW CONVECTIVE
TEMPERATURES SUGGEST NUMEROUS SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ARE
LIKELY...ESPECIALLY FROM LATE MORNING INTO THE LATE EVENING HOURS.
THE ATMOSPHERE LOOKS SUPPORTIVE OF PULSE SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WITH
DAMAGING WINDS AND FREQUENT CLOUD TO GROUND LIGHTNING BEING THE MAIN
CONVECTIVE HAZARDS. FORECAST SOUNDINGS AND MODEL WIND FIELDS
INDICATE THE MEAN FLOW IN THE LOWEST 15 KFT WILL BE 8 KT OR LESS SO
THERE WILL BE AN ELEVATED RISK FOR FLASH FLOODING WHERE CONVECTIVE
TRAINING AND MESOSCALE BOUNDARY INTERACTIONS OCCUR.

WILL INCREASE POPS TO THE 50-70 PERCENT RANGE FOR A GOOD CHUNK OF
THE AREA WITH THE HIGHEST POPS CENTERED ALONG AND WEST OF THE
INTERSTATE 95 CORRIDOR. CLOUD COVER AND AN EARLY CONVECTIVE
INITIATION WILL LIMIT AFTERNOON TEMPERATURES TO THE MID TO UPPER
80S. LOWS MONDAY NIGHT WILL RANGE FROM THE LOWER 70S INLAND TO THE
UPPER 70S TO AROUND 80 AT THE BEACHES.

TUESDAY...THE ATLANTIC RIDGE WILL BUILD WEST INTO THE SOUTHEAST U.S.
ON TUESDAY. FORECAST SOUNDINGS SUGGEST THE ATMOSPHERE WILL REMAIN
ONLY WEAKLY CAPPED DESPITE THE INCREASING HEIGHTS ALOFT SO EXPECT
ANOTHER BUSY DAY WITH SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS SHOWERS AND TSTMS. TOUGH
TO PIN DOWN EXACTLY WHERE THE GREATEST COVERAGE OF THUNDERSTORMS
WILL OCCUR GIVEN THE MESOSCALE ENVIRONMENT THAT WILL BE IN PLACE BUT
CURRENT INDICATIONS ARE THAT THE CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN AREAS WILL
HAVE THE HIGHEST PROBABILITIES OF SEEING MEASURABLE RAINFALL. WILL
GO WITH LIKELY POPS IN THESE AREAS WITH HIGH END CHANCE POPS FOR THE
CHARLESTON TRI-COUNTY. HIGHS WILL BE WITHIN A FEW DEGREES OF 90 WITH
LOWS IN THE LOWER TO MID 70S EXCEPT UPPER 70S TO AROUND 80 AT THE
BEACHES.

WEDNESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY...THE ATLANTIC RIDGE WILL HOLD POSITION
ACROSS THE SOUTH THROUGH THE WEEKEND DESPITE AN IMPRESSIVE SHORTWAVE
DIGGING NORTH OF THE GREAT LAKES. TEMPERATURES WILL RETURN TO THE
LOWER TO MID 90S WITH SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS EACH
AFTERNOON. THE HUMIDITY WILL RETURN AS WELL WITH HEAT INDICES
POSSIBLY APPROACHING 105 IN PLACES.

WE CONTINUE TO CAREFULLY MONITOR THE PROGRESSION OF TROPICAL STORM
BERTHA. THE DAY 7 NHC/HPC COORDINATED POSITION IS ROUGHLY 480 MILES
EAST OF DAYTONA BEACH FLORIDA.

&&

.AVIATION /19Z SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
CONVECTION WILL CONTINUE TO AFFECT BOTH KCHS AND KSAV THROUGH THE
AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING. HAVE ADDED TEMPO GROUPS TO TAF SITES
TO ACCOUNT FOR STRONG THUNDERSTORMS PRODUCING GUSTY WINDS...INTENSE
LIGHTNING AND HEAVY RAIN.

MORE ISOLATED CONVECTION MAY BE ABLE TO LINGER INTO THE NIGHTTIME
HOURS. WILL MONITOR CONVECTIVE TRENDS DURING THE NEXT FEW HOURS
AND CONSIDER UPDATING TAFS TO ACCOUNT FOR MORE PERSISTENT
THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY. AT THIS POINT...HAVE MENTIONED JUST BROKEN
CEILINGS AROUND 12000 FEET IN BOTH TAFS INTO SUNDAY MORNING.

THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT IS LIKELY ON SUNDAY...WITH IMPROVED
DYNAMICS AND INCREASED MOISTURE ACROSS THE AREA.

EXTENDED AVIATION OUTLOOK...MVFR OR LOWER CONDITIONS ARE POSSIBLE
WITHIN SHRA/TSRA...MAINLY EACH AFTERNOON/EVENING. OTHERWISE VFR
WEATHER WILL PREVAIL.

&&

.MARINE...
THE COASTAL WATERS WILL REMAIN ON THE WESTERN PERIPHERY OF
ATLANTIC HIGH PRESSURE THROUGH SUNDAY. LATEST BUOY OBSERVATIONS
INDICATE MAINLY SOUTHERLY WINDS AROUND 15 KT THIS AFTERNOON. GUSTS
TO 20 KT ARE POSSIBLE FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE AFTERNOON AND INTO
THE FIRST HALF OF THE NIGHT. A SIMILAR PATTERN IS EXPECTED AGAIN
SUNDAY AND SUNDAY NIGHT...WITH BRIEF INCREASES DURING THE AFTERNOON
SEABREEZE DEVELOPMENT ALONG THE COAST AND IN THE EVENING DUE TO
NOCTURNAL SURGING. SEAS WILL REMAIN IN THE 2 TO 4 FT RANGE...HIGHEST
BEYOND 20 NM.

MONDAY THROUGH THURSDAY...SOUTHERLY FLOW REGIME WILL DOMINATE
THROUGH THE PERIOD WITH THE AREA REMAINING ON THE WESTERN FLANKS OF
ATLANTIC HIGH PRESSURE. TYPICAL DIURNAL SURGES CAN BE EXPECTED
THROUGH THE PERIOD...PARTICULARLY ALONG THE SEA BREEZE.

&&

.TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING...
WILL CONTINUE TO WATCH ELEVATED TIDES TONIGHT DUE TO LINGERING
ASTRONOMICAL INFLUENCES...HOWEVER DO NOT ANTICIPATE SHALLOW
COASTAL FLOODING ADVISORY CRITERIA WILL BE MET AT THIS TIME.
NONETHELESS...SOME MINOR BACKUP OF WATER FROM THE STORM DRAINS
WILL STILL OCCUR IN DOWNTOWN CHARLESTON...AS WATER LEVELS REACH
NEAR 6.7 OR 6.8 FT MEAN LOWER LOW WATER /MLLW/ WITH THE LATE
EVENING HIGH TIDE.

&&

.CHS WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
GA...NONE.
SC...NONE.
MARINE...NONE.
