AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE COLUMBIA SC
328 AM EST WED DEC 9 2009

.SYNOPSIS...
A STRONG COLD FRONT WILL MOVE THROUGH THE FORECAST AREA TODAY. WINDY
CONDITIONS WILL BE ASSOCIATED WITH THIS FRONT. DRY HIGH PRESSURE
BEHIND THE FRONT WILL DOMINATE TONIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
A BAND OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS AHEAD OF THE COLD FRONT SHOULD
AFFECT THE FORECAST AREA THIS MORNING. EXPECT THE SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS WILL DIMINISH BECAUSE OF WEAKENING CONVERGENCE WITH THE
LINGERING WEDGE PATTERN IN THE FORECAST AREA. ALSO...THE MODELS
SHOW DIMINISHING UPPER-LEVEL LIFT AND THIS IS SUPPORTED BY
SATELLITE TRENDS INDICATING THE COLDER CLOUD TOPS HEADED WELL
NORTH OF THE FORECAST AREA. PLAN TO FORECAST CHANCE POPS THIS
MORNING. SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS CANNOT BE RULED OUT THIS
MORNING...BUT THE CHANCE APPEARS LOW BECAUSE OF A LACK OF SURFACE-
BASED INSTABILITY. EXPECT DRYING BEHIND THE MID-LEVEL SHORTWAVE
TROUGH WILL DOMINATE THIS AFTERNOON. THE MODELS SHOW THE WEDGE
ERODING WITH SURFACE-BASED INSTABILITY LOWERING TO -2 TO -4. THE
THUNDERSTORM CHANCE APPEARS VERY LOW DURING THIS TIME BECAUSE OF
JUST SHALLOW MOISTURE...BUT THE IMPLIED MIXING ASSOCIATED WITH THE
INSTABILITY SUPPORTS WINDY CONDITIONS. THE NAM INDICATES GUSTS OF
35 TO 40 KNOTS MAY MIX TO THE SURFACE WHICH IS NEAR THE WIND
ADVISORY CRITERIA. THE WIND PLUS SATURATED SOIL MAY RESULT IN A
FEW DOWNED TREES. PLAN TO UPGRADE THE LAKE WIND ADVISORY TO A
GENERAL WIND ADVISORY FOR THE EXPECTED WINDS MAINLY DURING THE
AFTERNOON.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT/...
DRY HIGH PRESSURE BEHIND THE COLD FRONT SHOULD DOMINATE TONIGHT
THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT. LIGHT WIND AND STRONG RADIATIONAL COOLING
SUPPORTS COLD TEMPERATURES THURSDAY NIGHT. THE NAM AND GFS MOS SHOW
LOWS IN THE MID TO UPPER 20S.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
THE DRY RIDGE SHOULD CONTINUE TO DOMINATE FRIDAY. THE GFS SHOWS WEAK
ISENTROPIC LIFT AND INCREASING MOISTURE IN THE SOUTH PART FRIDAY
NIGHT. BASED ON THE DRY AIR MASS THAT SHOULD BE IN PLACE AT THE TIME
AND THE EVAPORATIVE COOLING POTENTIAL THERE WILL BE A POSSIBILITY OF
SLEET. HOWEVER...THE ECMWF KEEPS DEEPER MOISTURE SUPPRESSED FARTHER
SOUTH AND KEEPS THE ENTIRE FORECAST AREA DRY THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT.
THE GFS ENSEMBLES SHOW HIGH SPREAD. BASED ON THE UNCERTAINTY AND
MARGINAL TEMPERATURES BELIEVE THE BEST FORECAST FOR NOW IS A SMALL
CHANCE OF RAIN IN THE SOUTH PART FRIDAY NIGHT. THE GFS SHOWS THE
MOISTURE SPREADING FARTHER NORTHWARD SATURDAY. THE ECMWF STILL APPEARS
TOO KEEP DEEPER MOISTURE SUPPRESSED FARTHER SOUTH. PLAN TO FORECAST
A CHANCE OF PRECIPITATION AREAWIDE SATURDAY. BASED ON THE EVAPORATIVE
