AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHARLESTON SC
748 PM EDT SUN MAY 10 2009

.SYNOPSIS...
A STATIONARY FRONT WILL REMAIN OVER THE REGION TONIGHT THROUGH
EARLY MON...THEN WILL PUSH S OF THE AREA AS A COLD FRONT LATE MON
THROUGH TUE AS HIGH PRES BUILDS TO THE N. ATLC HIGH PRES WILL
PERSIST WED THROUGH FRI. ANOTHER COLD FRONT WILL MOVE IN NEXT
WEEKEND.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM MONDAY MORNING/...
SUNDAY EVENING...THE MAIN FOCUS FOR CLUSTERS OF STRONG/SEVERE
THUNDERSTORMS HAD SETTLED INTO N/INLAND COUNTIES OF THE FORECAST
AREA. ADDITIONAL STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WERE ADVANCING
THROUGH CENTRAL GA AND WERE APPROACHING WESTERN COUNTIES OF THE
FORECAST AREA...AND THESE MAY HOLD TOGETHER AT LEAST INTO WESTERN
COUNTIES THIS EVENING. IN THESE AREAS...MAINTAINED A MENTION OF
SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS UNTIL 11 PM-MIDNIGHT...AND PWATS EXCEEDING
1.8 INCHES/ECHO TRAINING WILL CONTINUE TO PRESENT THE THREAT FOR
LOCALLY EXCESSIVE RAINFALL. ELSEWHERE...EXPECT NOTHING MORE THAN
ISOLATED SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS THIS EVENING.

OVERNIGHT..ADDITIONAL SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS MAY DEVELOP ALONG THE
STATIONARY FRONT/ALONG OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES OVERNIGHT...JUSTIFYING
SLIGHT CHANCE TO CHANCE POPS OVERNIGHT.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM MONDAY MORNING THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT/...
MONDAY WILL START WITH A STATIONARY FRONT OVER OR CLOSE TO
NORTHERN COUNTIES OF THE FORECAST AREA. GIVEN THIS NORTHERN
POSITION...RAISED HIGH TEMPERATURES SIGNIFICANTLY MOST
AREAS...ESPECIALLY ACROSS THE NORTHERN 1/2 OF THE FORECAST AREA.
HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD NORTH OF THE REGION...AND MONDAY
AFTERNOON THIS HIGH WILL PUSH THE BOUNDARY SOUTH AS A COLD FRONT.
THIS SHOULD SUPPORT AT LEAST SCATTERED SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS
ACROSS THE REGION. ISOLATED SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ARE
POSSIBLE...ESPECIALLY AS STRONGER MID LEVEL WINDS/BULK SHEAR
ADVANCE TOWARD THE SOUTH AND IF HIGHER DEWPOINTS STRONG
INSTABILITY CAN POOL NEAR THE ADVANCING COLD FRONT. HOWEVER...12Z
GUIDANCE SUGGESTS THAT PREFRONTAL DEWPOINTS MAY FALL THROUGH THE
60S DURING THE TIME OF MAX HEATING...LIMITING SBCAPES TO LESS THAN
2000 J/KG AND PERHAPS LIMITING THE SCOPE OF THE SEVERE POTENTIAL.

MONDAY NIGHT...THE COLD FRONT WILL CONTINUE TO PRESS SOUTH...WITH
POPS GRADUALLY DECREASING FROM N/NW TO S/SE....LIMITED TO SLIGHT
CHANCE S/E LATE. IN THE WAKE OF THE FRONT...COOLER/DRIER AIR WILL
SPREAD INTO THE REGION...AND TEMPERATES WILL FALL INTO THE 50S AT
MANY LOCATIONS.

&&

.LONG TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN BEHIND A COLD FRONT WHICH WILL BE PLACED
JUST SOUTH OF THE AREA TUESDAY. HAVE MAINTAINED SLIGHT CHANCE POPS
IN THE SOUTHERN AREAS DUE TO THE PLACEMENT OF THE FRONT AND
INSTABILITY PARAMETERS LOOK DECENT. GFS INDICATES A SERIES OF
SHORTWAVES COMING INTO THE AREA WITH AT LEAST SLIGHT CHANCE OF
ASSOCIATED CONVECTION IN THE AFTERNOON THROUGH THE END OF THE WEEK.
HOWEVER...INSTABILITY LOOKS TO BE SOMEWHAT LESS WITH DRIER AIR
PUSHING INTO THE AREA ASSOCIATED WITH THE HIGH PRESSURE.

TEMPERATURES WILL BE SLIGHTLY BELOW NORMAL THROUGH WEDNESDAY BUT
WILL BEGIN WARMING UP INTO THE LOW TO MID 80S BY MID TO LATE WEEK.

&&

.AVIATION /00Z MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE TO IMPACT KCHS UNTIL 3-4Z. WILL AMEND
TAF AS NEAR TERM CONVECTIVE TRENDS BECOME CLEAR. HERE...RAINFALL...
LOW LEVEL MOISTURE AND LIGHT WINDS WILL SUPPORT MVFR OR LOWER
CONDITIONS OVERNIGHT INTO EARLY MONDAY. AT KSAV...VFR CONDITIONS
SHOULD PREVAIL THROUGH TONIGHT...ALTHOUGH UPSTREAM THUNDERSTORMS
COULD HOLD TOGETHER TO IMPACT THE AIRPORT LATER THIS EVENING.
THEN...AS A COLD FRONT ADVANCES TOWARD THE SOUTH...ADDITIONAL
THUNDERSTORMS WILL DEVELOP MONDAY. TOO EARLY TO CONFIDENTLY TIME
MOST LIKELY TIMES FOR THUNDERSTORMS...THUS CONTINUED TO MENTION
ONLY CBS AT BOTH LOCATIONS LATE MONDAY MORNING THROUGH THE
REMAINDER OF THE 0Z TAF PERIOD.

EXTENDED AVIATION OUTLOOK...MVFR/BRIEF IFR CONDITIONS POSSIBLE
INTO MON NIGHT IN SCATTERED SHOWERS AND TSTMS. THEN...VFR TUE
THROUGH THU.

&&

.MARINE...
WITH A SURFACE FRONT STALLED IN THE VICINITY OF NORTHERN WATERS
AND WITH CONVECTIVE OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES ACROSS THE AREA...A COMPLEX
BUT WEAK PRESSURE PATTERN WILL SUPPORT VARIABLE WINDS
TONIGHT...REMAINING LESS THAN 15 KNOTS OUTSIDE THUNDERSTORMS. THIS
REGIME WILL PERSIST MONDAY. THEN...HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD TO THE
NORTH AND WILL PUSH THE SYNOPTIC BOUNDARY SOUTH AS A COLD FRONT
LATE MONDAY AND MONDAY NIGHT. IN THE WAKE OF COLD FROPA...NE WINDS
WILL SURGE INTO THE COASTAL WATERS...AND MARGINAL SMALL CRAFT
ADVISORY CONDITIONS COULD DEVELOP OUTSIDE CHARLESTON
HARBOR...ESPECIALLY ON GA COASTAL WATERS BEYOND 20 NM AFTER
MIDNIGHT.

A NORTHEAST SURGE WILL INCREASE WINDS TO AROUND 15 TO 20 KNOTS
THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT BEFORE DIMINISHING TO AROUND 10 KNOTS AND
LASTING THROUGH THE END OF THE WEEK. ALONG THE COAST WILL FEEL THE
EFFECTS OF THE AFTERNOON SEABREEZE AS THERE WILL BE A SURGE OF 10 TO
15 KNOTS AT THE BEACHES. SEAS WILL BUILD TO 6 TO 7 FEET TUESDAY
NIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY BEFORE SUBSIDING TO 2 TO 4 FEET THROUGH THE END
