AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHARLESTON SC
424 PM EDT MON JUL 21 2008

.SYNOPSIS...
ATLANTIC HIGH PRESSURE WILL REMAIN IN CONTROL THROUGH THE PERIOD
WHILE A TROUGH OF LOW PRESSURE REMAINS TO THE WEST.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM TUESDAY MORNING/...
A NASTY LINE OF STORMS HAS DEVELOPED UPSTREAM ALONG THE LEADING
EDGE OF AN UPPER SHORTWAVE DIVING SE THROUGH CENTRAL SC. THIS
CLUSTER OF STORMS WILL ENCOUNTER AN INCREASINGLY UNSTABLE
ATMOSPHERE AS IT APPROACHES THE COAST DUE TO THE INCREASE IN
DEWPOINTS. ISOLATED ACTIVITY HAS ALSO OCCURRED ELSEWHERE BUT THE
PRIMARY DRIVER FOR CONVECTION THROUGH EARLY EVENING SHOULD BE THE
MCS. HAVE INCREASED POPS TO LIKELY THROUGH 00Z OVER SRN SC FOR THE
EXPECTED PASSAGE OF THIS MCS. ALSO INCLUDED MENTION OF SEVERE
STORMS IN HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK. BEYOND 00Z DRYING CONDITIONS
EXPECTED WITH MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM TUESDAY MORNING THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT/...
CONVECTIVE CHANCES SHOULD INCREASE ON TUE WITH THE UPPER RIDGE
BEGINNING TO BREAK DOWN...STRENGTHENING MID-LEVEL LAPSE RATES AND
PERHAPS A FEW WEAK UPPER DISTURBANCES ROTATING THROUGH. THE LATE
AFTERNOON SEABREEZE WILL ALSO SERVE AS A FOCUSING MECHANISM. HAVE
INCLUDED SLIGHT CHANCE POPS ALL AREAS WITH CHANCE POPS IN SOUTHEAST
GA WHERE A BIT MORE INSTABILITY IS EXPECTED.

THE OTHER ISSUE FOR TUE IS TEMPS. 850 MB TEMPS WILL BE ABOUT A
DEGREE WARMER THAN TODAY YET THE FLOW WILL BECOME WSW IN THE
AFTERNOON WHICH WOULD END THE DOWNSLOPING. WE THINK TEMPS SHOULD
TOP OUT NEAR TODAY/S HIGHS...PERHAPS A DEGREE COOLER OVER NORTHERN
SECTIONS WHERE THE LACK OF DOWNSLOPE WILL HAVE A GREATER
INFLUENCE. MATCHED TUE HIGHS UP WITH TODAY/S WITH MINOR TWEAKS.
DEWPOINTS WILL AGAIN MIX OUT INTO THE MID 60S INLAND BUT IN THE
CORRIDOR ALONG THE COAST THERE WILL BE SOME LOWER 70S THROUGH THE
AFTERNOON THAT WILL LINE UP WITH HIGH TEMPS IN THE MID OR UPPER
90S. FEEL FAIRLY CONFIDENT WE WILL REACH HEAT ADVISORY CRITERIA IN
SOME AREAS ON TUE. ANY LOCATION COULD HIT 105 HEAT INDEX FOR AN
HOUR BUT IT IS MUCH MORE CHALLENGING TO PIN DOWN AREAS THAT WILL
SEE TWO CONSECUTIVE HOURS OF 105 HEAT INDICES. BEST CHANCE WILL
REMAIN IN THE TRI-COUNTY AND SURROUNDING AREAS WHERE THE DEWPOINTS
ARE LEAST LIKELY TO MIX DOWN WHILE TEMPS WILL RISE INTO THE UPPER
90S. PLAN ANOTHER HEAT ADVISORY FOR TUE SIMILAR TO TODAY WITH THE
EXCEPTION OF JASPER COUNTY BEING REMOVED.

&&

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
A MEAN UPPER LEVEL TROUGH WILL BE IN PLACE OVER THE EASTERN U.S.
THROUGH THE LONG TERM PERIOD. MEANWHILE AT THE SURFACE...ATLANTIC
HIGH PRESSURE WILL CONTINUE TO DOMINATE WITH A LEE SIDE TROUGH IN
PLACE JUST WEST OF THE FORECAST AREA. THIS LEE SIDE TROUGH COULD
DRIFT CLOSER TO THE COAST AT TIMES HOWEVER.

A SHORT WAVE WILL ROUND THE BASE OF THE UPPER LEVEL TROUGH AND PASS
OVER THE AREA WEDNESDAY INTO THURSDAY. THIS WILL RESULT IN A GOOD
CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS...ESPECIALLY WEDNESDAY
AFTERNOON/EVENING. HEAVY RAINFALL IS ALSO POSSIBLE...GIVEN
PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES WELL IN EXCESS OF 2 INCHES. FOR THE
REMAINDER OF THE LONG TERM PERIOD...EXPECT SCATTERED SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS TO DEVELOP EACH AFTERNOON AND EVENING AS TIME/HEIGHT
CROSS SECTIONS CONTINUE TO SHOW FAIRLY DEEP MOISTURE IN PLACE OVER
THE REGION.

TEMPERATURES WILL BE NEAR SEASONABLE NORMALS WEDNESDAY THROUGH
MONDAY...WITH HIGHS GENERALLY IN THE LOWER TO PERHAPS MID 90S AWAY
FROM THE BEACHES.

&&

.AVIATION /20Z MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
THE TWO ISSUES FOR THE 18Z SET OF TAFS ARE VSBY AND CONVECTIVE
POTENTIAL. WIDESPREAD HAZE IS EXPECTED TO PERSIST THROUGH TONIGHT
AND PERHAPS EVEN INTO THE FIRST HALF OF TUE. PREVAILING MVFR VSBYS
EXPECTED THROUGH TONIGHT BEFORE HAZE MIXES OUT DURING THE DAY TUE.
A CLUSTER OF STORMS UPSTREAM COULD MAKE IT ALL THE WAY TO THE
COAST THROUGH 00Z...AFFECTING CHS TERM BRIEFLY IN THE PROCESS.
WILL MONITOR TAFS CLOSELY UNTIL MORE DEFINITE TIMING CAN BE
INTRODUCED.

SLIGHTLY BETTER COVERAGE OF CONVECTION EXPECTED ON TUE AS UPPER
LEVELS COOL SLIGHTLY AND A FEW WEAK UPPER DISTURBANCES SWING
THROUGH. BEST COVERAGE LOOKS TO BE ACROSS SOUTHERN SC WHERE DEWPTS
WILL REMAIN HIGHER AND THE SHORTWAVE ENERGY WILL BE. ADDED CB
MENTION AT CHS BUT NOT SAV. LATER SHIFTS WILL HOPEFULLY BE ABLE TO
PIN DOWN TIMING A BIT MORE PRECISELY.

EXTENDED AVIATION OUTLOOK...VFR CONDITIONS EXPECTED OUTSIDE OF
AFTERNOON/EVENING CONVECTION.

&&

.MARINE...
ATLANTIC HIGH PRESSURE WILL RESULT IN SOUTH OR SOUTHWEST WINDS OVER
THE COASTAL WATERS THROUGH SATURDAY. WIND SPEEDS COULD SURGE UP TO
15-20 KT AT TIMES IN THE EVENING/EARLY OVERNIGHT HOURS DUE TO
TYPICAL NOCTURNAL JETTING...AND UP TO 15 KT DURING THE AFTERNOON
NEAR SHORE AND IN THE CHARLESTON HARBOR DUE TO THE INFLUENCE OF THE
SEABREEZE. WINDS/SEAS ARE EXPECTED TO REMAIN BELOW SMALL CRAFT
ADVISORY CRITERIA THROUGH THE PERIOD.

&&

.CHS WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
GA...NONE.
SC...HEAT ADVISORY UNTIL 9 PM EDT THIS EVENING FOR SCZ043>045-
     047>051.
     HEAT ADVISORY FROM 12 PM TO 9 PM EDT TUESDAY FOR SCZ043>045-
