AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHARLESTON SC
346 PM EDT MON MAY 11 2009

.SYNOPSIS...
A STATIONARY FRONT WILL BEGIN TO SHIFT TO THE S AND OFFSHORE
THIS EVENING. THIS FRONT WILL DROP SOUTH OF THE AREA EARLY TONIGHT AND
TUE AS HIGH PRES BUILDS TO THE N. ATLC HIGH PRES WILL PERSIST WED
THROUGH THE WEEKEND.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM TUESDAY MORNING/...
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE TO DEVELOP OVER INLAND
PORTIONS OF SOUTHEAST SOUTH CAROLINA AND SOUTHEAST GEORGIA THIS
EVENING AND SHIFT TOWARDS THE ATLANTIC COAST. ACTIVITY WILL WEAKEN
EARLY TONIGHT AS IT ENCOUNTERS MORE STABLE IN SC AND A STRONG CAP IN
GA. A QUASI STATIONARY FRONT WILL THEN SHIFT FURTHER SOUTH THROUGH
THE CWA ENDING PRECIP ACTIVITY OVER MOST OF SOUTH CAROLINA BY
SUNSET. PORTIONS OF SOUTHEAST GEORGIA WILL CONTINUE TO SEE A CHANCE
OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS EARLY TONIGHT WHERE THE ATMOSPHERE
REMAINS WARM AND DEWPTS REMAIN NEAR 60.

HIGH PRESSURE WILL BEGIN TO SETTLE INTO THE REGION OVERNIGHT.
CLOUD COVER WILL QUICKLY SHIFT SOUTH OVERNIGHT AS DRYER AIR MOVES
OVER THE SOUTHEAST. WITH NORTHERLY WINDS BEHIND THE FRONT AND
SKIES BEGINNING TO SCATTER OUT LATE...OVERNIGHT LOW TEMPS WILL
REACH THE LOW 50S OVER SC AND UPPER 50S OVER GA.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM TUESDAY MORNING THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT/...
CONDITIONS WILL QUICKLY DRY OUT TUESDAY OVER SC AND GA AS A FRONT
SHIFTS SLOWLY SOUTHEAST FURTHER OFF THE SC AND GA COAST. THERE WILL BE A
SLIGHT CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS BEFORE NOON TUESDAY OVER
THE SOUTHEAST GEORGIA COAST WHERE CONDITIONS WILL REMAIN WARM AND
MOIST CLOSER TO THE FRONT. THE ATMOSPHERE WILL DRY OUT QUICKLY TUESDAY
AFTERNOON AS HIGH PRESSURE FROM THE NORTH CONTINUES TO SETTLE OVER
THE SOUTHEAST. CLOUD COVER WILL QUICKLY SCATTER OUT OVER THE
ENTIRE CWA BY TUESDAY EVENING. N/NE FLOW BEHIND THE FRONT WILL
KEEP HIGH TEMPS IN THE UPPER 70S OVER A MAJORITY OF SOUTHEAST SC
AND SOUTHEAST GA DESPITE AMPLE SFC HEATING.

THE SURFACE RIDGE AND ASSOCIATED DRIER AIRMASS WILL CONTINUE TO
SPREAD INTO THE FORECAST AREA TUESDAY NIGHT. THEN...THE 500 MB RIDGE
WILL STRENGTHEN WEDNESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY AS THE SURFACE HIGH
SHIFTS OFFSHORE AND A PREVAILING ONSHORE FLOW DEVELOPS.

&&

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
LOW LEVEL MOISTURE WILL QUICKLY RETURN TO THE REGION STARTING
WEDNESDAY...AND DEWPOINTS WILL INCREASE INTO THE 60S WITH NEAR-
NORMAL HIGHS IN THE MIDDLE 80S THURSDAY THROUGH SUNDAY. THIS WILL
SUPPORT AT LEAST SCATTERED DIURNAL SEA BREEZE SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS
EACH DAY. THE NEXT COLD FRONT WILL APPROACH THE REGION EARLY NEXT
WEEK. HOWEVER...LATEST GUIDANCE SUGGESTS THAT THE UPPER RIDGE MAY
SLOW THE PROGRESS OF THE FRONT...RAISING CONSIDERABLE FORECAST
UNCERTAINTY AFTER THIS WEEKEND. THE BOUNDARY COULD STALL FAR
ENOUGH N/W OF THE REGION TO MAINTAIN THE ONGOING DIURNAL
CONVECTIVE REGIME...OR CLOUD SLOW CLOSE ENOUGH TO THE REGION TO
ENHANCE THE PROSPECTS FOR SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS BY MONDAY. RAISED
POPS TO SLIGHT CHANCE/CHANCE SUNDAY NIGHT AND MONDAY TO ACCOUNT
FOR THE LATTER SCENARIO AND FOR COLLABORATION WITH SURROUNDING
FORECASTS.

&&

.AVIATION /19Z MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
COMPLEX SCENARIO FOR THIS AFTERNOON AT BOTH CHS AND SAV TERMINALS.
BOTH TERMINALS SHOULD EXPECT A PERIOD OF PRECIP THIS AFTERNOON AS
A QUASI STATIONARY FRONT BEGINS TO PUSH SOUTH.

FOR CHS...CURRENT RADAR SHOWS A CLUSTER OF SHOWERS WITH EMBEDDED
THUNDERSTORMS SHIFTING TOWARDS THE CHS TERMINAL. THIS CLUSTER IS
SHOWING A WEAKENING TREND AS IT SHIFTS EAST. EXPECT SHOWERS
BETWEEN 19Z AND 20Z. THERE IS A CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORM. WINDS WILL
BECOME NORTHERLY BY 22Z AND LOW CLOUDS WILL MOVE INTO THE AREA.
TEMPO MVFR CIGS WILL REMAIN IN THE TAF FROM 2Z TO 6Z OVERNIGHT.
CONDITIONS WILL IMPROVE AFTER MIDNIGHT AS DRYER AIR MOVES INTO THE
REGION. CLOUDS WILL QUICKLY SHIFT SOUTH OF THE TERMINAL TOMORROW
MORNING AS HIGH PRESSURE SETTLES OVER THE SOUTHEAST. NORTHEAST
WINDS AROUND 12 KNOTS ARE ANTICIPATED BY NOON TUESDAY.

FOR SAV...SHOWERS AND ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS WILL DEVELOP OVER
SOUTHEAST GEORGIA THIS AFTERNOON...MAINLY BETWEEN 19Z AND 22Z.
THERE IS A CHANCE OF A SHOWER BEFORE THIS TIME PERIOD BUT
CONFIDENCE IS TOO LOW TO PUT INTO TAF. WINDS WILL BECOME NORTHERLY
BY 00Z TONIGHT AND CLOUDS WILL SHIFT INTO THE AREA. THINKING AT
THIS TIME IS THAT CIGS WILL REMAIN VFR. CLOUDS WILL SHIFT FURTHER
SOUTH AFTER MIDNIGHT AS DRYER AIR MOVES INTO THE REGION. AS HIGH
PRESSURE SETTLES OVER THE SOUTHEAST...CLOUDS WILL CONTINUE TO
SCATTER OUT OF THE REGION. NORTHEAST WINDS AROUND 12 KNOTS ARE
ANTICIPATED BY NOON TUESDAY.

EXTENDED AVIATION OUTLOOK...BRIEF MVFR CIGS POSSIBLE EARLY TUE
AT KSAV AND KCHS...OTHERWISE MAINLY VFR TUE THROUGH THU.

&&

.MARINE...
WINDS WILL BECOME NORTHERLY TONIGHT AS A FRONT SHIFTS SOUTH
THROUGH THE SC AND GA COASTAL WATERS. AS NORTHERLY FLOW DEVELOPS
BEHIND THE FRONT...CAA WILL ALLOW WIND SPEEDS TO APPROACH 15 TO 20
KNOTS OVER MUCH OF THE NEARSHORE COASTAL WATERS AND SEAS WILL
BUILD TO 3 TO 4 FEET BY TUESDAY MORNING. SEAS WILL CONTINUE TO
BUILD TUESDAY AS LONG PERIOD SWELLS BECOME MORE FAVORABLE.

SCA CONDITIONS APPEAR LIKELY OVER THE OUTER GA WATERS AS HIGH
PRESSURE FROM THE NORTH AND LOW PRESSURE TO THE SOUTHEAST PRODUCE
A PRESSURE GRADIENT OVER THE WATERS THAT SUPPORT FAVORABLE SWELL
DEVELOPMENT AND STRENGTHENING WIND SPEEDS. AS SWELL CONTINUES TO BUILD
OVERNIGHT...SEAS WILL BUILD TO 4 TO 6 FEET OVER THE OUTER GA
WATERS. AS A RESULT...A SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY WILL REMAIN IN EFFECT
BEGINNING AT 4 AM TONIGHT. CONDITIONS APPEAR TO STAY BELOW SCA
CRITERIA FOR THE REMAINING SC AND GA WATERS TONIGHT AND TOMORROW.
CONDITIONS WILL BE MONITORED FOR POTENTIAL SCA CONDITIONS SHOULD
THE WEATHER PATTERN REMAIN FAVORABLE FOR A LONGER PERIOD OF TIME
TONIGHT AND TUESDAY.

SPRAWLING HIGH PRESSURE NE OF THE WATERS WILL MAINTAIN A LONG FETCH
ONSHORE FLOW REGIME...MAINTAINING SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY CONDITIONS
ACROSS THE OUTER GA WATERS INTO EARLY THURSDAY...PUSHING SMALL CRAFT
ADVISORY CONDITIONS INTO NEARSHORE WATERS WEDNESDAY/WEDNESDAY NIGHT
AND MAINTAINING ELEVATED WINDS SEAS THROUGH FRIDAY. HOWEVER...THIS
GENERAL SCENARIO WILL LIKELY BECOME COMPLICATED BY A SURFACE TROUGH
THAT WILL DEVELOP OVER THE GULF STREAM AND MAY PUSH INTO COASTAL
WATERS AND TOWARD THE COAST. 12Z GFS/NAM HANDLING OF THIS FEATURE
DIFFERS SIGNIFICANTLY. SPECIFICALLY...THE GFS DEPICTS A CLOSED
CYCLONIC CIRCULATION DEVELOPING OFFSHORE WEDNESDAY THEN PUSHING
NW/ONSHORE EARLY THURSDAY...GREATLY ALTERING LOW LEVEL WINDS...WHILE
THE NAM MAINTAINS A WEAKER COASTAL TROUGH AND MUCH STRONGER ONSHORE
LOW LEVEL FLOW. THUS...FORECAST CONFIDENCE REMAINS LESS THAN
IDEAL...AND ADJUSTMENTS WILL LIKELY BE REQUIRED THIS WEEK. BY LATE
WEEK...GUIDANCE DEPICTS SUBSIDING SEAS AND A TRANSITION TO A TYPICAL
SUMMERTIME REGIME...FEATURING A DOMINANT AFTERNOON/EVENING SEA
BREEZE CIRCULATION AND MODEST NOCTURNAL SURGES OF S WINDS.

RIP CURRENTS...THE PERSISTENT ONSHORE FLOW AND DEVELOPING EASTERLY
SWELL MAY CREATE AN ELEVATED RISK FOR RIP CURRENTS MID TO LATE WEEK.

&&

.CHS WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
GA...NONE.
SC...NONE.
MARINE...SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY FROM 4 AM TUESDAY TO 4 AM EDT THURSDAY
     FOR AMZ374.
