AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHARLESTON SC
650 PM EST SUN JAN 24 2010

.SYNOPSIS...
A COLD FRONT WILL APPROACH THIS EVENING...THEN MOVE THROUGH THE
REGION LATE TONIGHT AND EARLY MONDAY MORNING. HIGH PRESSURE WILL
THEN BUILD INTO THE AREA THROUGH THURSDAY. ANOTHER STORM SYSTEM IS
EXPECTED TO IMPACT THE AREA LATE IN THE WEEK...WITH HIGH PRESSURE
RETURNING NEXT SUNDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM MONDAY MORNING/...
BREEZY SOUTHEAST WINDS PREVAIL ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA THIS
AFTERNOON...AS THE PRESSURE GRADIENT HAS TIGHTENED BEHIND A
LIFTING WARM FRONT AND AN APPROACHING COLD FRONT FROM THE WEST.
LIGHT SHOWERS CONTINUE TO TRACK NORTH FROM SOUTHEAST GEORGIA
THROUGH SOUTHEAST SOUTH CAROLINA. DESPITE THICK CLOUD
COVER...TEMPERATURES HAVE WARMED INTO THE UPPER 60S TO LOWER 70S
WITHIN THE WARM SECTOR OF THE FRONTAL SYSTEM.

EXPECT SHOWER COVERAGE TO GRADUALLY INCREASE FROM WEST TO EAST THIS
EVENING AHEAD OF THE COLD FRONT. CONTINUE TO MENTION CATEGORICAL
POPS ACROSS THE ENTIRE AREA BY MIDNIGHT...WITH HEAVIEST RAINFALL
OCCURRING BETWEEN MIDNIGHT AND DAYBREAK MONDAY. ALTHOUGH SHOWERS
COULD BE QUITE INTENSE AT TIMES...THE SYSTEM IS EXPECTED TO BE
FAIRLY PROGRESSIVE...AND FLOODING DOES NOT APPEAR TO BE A CONCERN.

A STRONG UPPER LEVEL JET AROUND 110 KT WILL SLIP INTO THE AREA
ALONG THE BASE OF AN UPPER LEVEL LOW THIS EVENING. AT THE SAME
TIME...THE LOW LEVEL JET WILL FURTHER INTENSIFY TO POTENTIALLY 70
KT ACROSS THE SOUTH CAROLINA COASTAL COUNTIES. MAIN FORECAST ISSUE
IN THE NEAR TERM WILL BE POTENTIAL THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT THAT
COULD SUPPORT DAMAGING WINDS AND AN ISOLATED TORNADO. STORM
PREDICTION CENTER HAS MAINTAINED A SLIGHT RISK FOR THE
AREA...HIGHLIGHTING A 15 PERCENT WIND AND 5 PERCENT TORNADO RISK.

THE LIMITING FACTOR FOR SEVERE WEATHER INITIATION WILL BE
INSTABILITY...SIMILAR TO PREVIOUS EVENTS THIS SEASON. NAM AND GFS
ONLY DEPICT A BRIEF WINDOW AROUND MIDNIGHT DURING WHICH
INSTABILITY AND LAPSE RATES COULD SUPPORT STRONG SURFACE BASED
CONVECTION. IF THUNDERSTORMS DO DEVELOP...DAMAGING WINDS ARE
QUITE POSSIBLE GIVEN THE INTENSE LOW LEVEL JET AND SUBSEQUENT
IMPRESSIVE SHEAR PROFILE. HOWEVER...THERE IS STILL MUCH
UNCERTAINTY...SINCE THE INSTABILITY AND LAPSE RATES INDICATED BY
THE MODELS ARE MARGINAL IN THEMSELVES. ADDITIONALLY...THE
OVERNIGHT TIMING OF THE FRONTAL PASSAGE IS NOT IDEAL FOR
WIDESPREAD STRONG THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT.

HAVE ADDED GUSTY WINDS TO THE FORECAST TO HIGHLIGHT ONGOING
CONDITIONS...AS WELL AS THE POTENTIAL FOR ANY THUNDERSTORMS TO
BRING DOWN STRONGER WINDS TONIGHT. LACKING CONFIDENCE IN SEVERE
POTENTIAL...PREFER NOT TO MENTION DAMAGING WINDS OR OTHER STRONG
WORDING IN THE FORECAST AT THIS TIME. WILL CONTINUE TO HIGHLIGHT
POTENTIAL IN THE HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK.

LAKE WINDS...MAINTAINED ONGOING LAKE WIND ADVISORY...CONSIDERING
STRONG WINDS ARE ALREADY OCCURRING ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM MONDAY MORNING THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT/...
FRONT SHOULD CONTINUE OFF THE COAST MONDAY MORNING WITH PRECIP
ENDING ALONG THE COAST. WINDS WILL STILL BE A BIT BREEZY BEHIND THE
FRONT ON MONDAY AFTERNOON AS SURFACE LOW CONTINUES TO DEEPEN WELL TO
THE NORTH...BUT COLD ADVECTION IS NOT PARTICULARLY IMPRESSIVE WITH
THE MAIN POLAR AIR MASS STILL BEHIND THE SECONDARY COLD FRONT. CLOUDS
SHOULD MOSTLY DISSIPATE FROM LATE MORNING IN THE WEST TO EARLY
AFTERNOON IN THE EAST. WEST TO SOUTHWEST WINDS WILL STILL MANAGE TO
PUSH MAX TEMPS ABOVE NORMAL.

MONDAY NIGHT...SECONDARY COLD FRONT WILL PUSH THROUGH THE AREA.
THERE MAY BE A SMALL INCREASE IN CLOUDS NEAR THE FRONT...BUT NO
PRECIP IS EXPECTED. TEMPS WILL DROP TO NEAR OR JUST A BIT ABOVE
NORMAL BY DAWN TUESDAY.

TUESDAY...WINDS WILL BE UP AGAIN TUESDAY MORNING BEHIND THE
SECONDARY COLD FRONT...BUT WITH THE SURFACE LOW IN EASTERN CANADA
PULLING FURTHER AWAY...WIND SPEEDS WILL SLOWLY DIMINISH DURING THE
AFTERNOON. TEMPS SHOULD BE NEAR NORMAL WITH 55 TO 60 MOST PLACES.

TUESDAY NIGHT AND WEDNESDAY...HIGH PRESSURE WILL BE
NEARBY...ALLOWING FOR MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES. MORNING TEMPS WILL BE
CHILLY WITH NEAR OR SLIGHTLY BELOW FREEZING MOST PLACES...BUT LOTS
OF SUNSHINE SHOULD ALLOW THE AREA TO WARM UP TO SEASONAL NORMS BY
AFTERNOON.

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
AFTER A MILDER DAY ON THURSDAY...THE NEXT STORM SYSTEM
LOOKS TO EFFECT THE AREA FROM LATER FRIDAY INTO EARLY SATURDAY. HIGH
PRESSURE WILL THEN MOVE BACK IN BEHIND THE STORM FOR THE SECOND HALF
OF NEXT WEEKEND. TOO EARLY TO ESTIMATE ANY SEVERE WEATHER/FLOOD
THREAT WITH THAT STORM...BUT THIS ACTIVE EL NINO PATTERN WOULD
SUGGEST THE SYSTEM BEARS WATCHING.

&&

.AVIATION /00Z MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
THE MAIN CONCERNS FOR THE 00Z TAF PERIOD REMAINS TIMING OF PRECIP AS
A COLD FRONT APPROACHES THE AREA...AND GUSTY WINDS AS THE PRESSURE
GRADIENT CONTINUES TO TIGHTEN. HAVE INITIALIZED KCHS WITH SOME VFR
SHOWERS AS SCATTERED LIGHT RAIN CONTINUES TO MOVE ACROSS THE AREA.
DON/T EXPECT THE BULK OF THE ACTIVITY UNTIL CLOSER TO MIDNIGHT...BUT
PRIOR TO THIS...COULD SEE SOME PERIODS OF MODERATE TO HEAVY RAIN AT
KSAV. WILL CONTINUE TO MONITOR RADAR AS AMENDMENTS MAYBE NECESSARY.
00Z KCHS SOUNDING SHOWED CLOSE TO 50 KNOTS JUST OFF THE SURFACE.
EVEN THOUGH THE FAIRLY UNIDIRECTIONAL WIND DIRECTION THROUGH THE
LAYER SHOULD NOT BE AN ISSUE...HAVE INITIATED KCHS WITH LLWS. WINDS
JUST OFF THE SURFACE WILL CONTINUE TO INCREASE OVERNIGHT...WITH
MODEL SOUNDINGS SHOWING 1500 FOOT WINDS AROUND 50 KNOTS....POSSIBLY
60 KNOTS AT KCHS. THEREFORE HAVE LLWS STARTING AT 03Z IN KSAV AND
CONTINUING UNTIL EARLY MONDAY MORNING FOR BOTH SITES. RAIN CHANCES
WILL DECREASE AROUND SUNRISE AS THE FRONT PUSHES OFF THE COAST...BUT
GUSTS AT THE SURFACE WILL CONTINUE WELL INTO MONDAY AFTERNOON.

EXTENDED AVIATION OUTLOOK...VFR CONDITIONS EXPECTED FROM MONDAY
AFTERNOON THROUGH THE DAY THURSDAY AS HIGH PRESSURE WILL
DOMINATE. WINDS WILL BE A BIT BREEZY MONDAY AND TUESDAY WITH SOME
LLWS ISSUES POSSIBLE.

&&

.MARINE...
LOW LEVEL JET WILL CONTINUE TO INTENSIFY OVER THE COASTAL WATERS
THROUGH TONIGHT...AS A COLD FRONT APPROACHES THE AREA FROM THE
WEST. MODELS DEPICT THIS FEATURE AS STRONG AS 70 KT BY MIDNIGHT.
GALE CRITERIA IS EXPECTED TO OCCUR IN THE OFFSHORE WATERS
TONIGHT...WHERE THE WARMER WATERS WILL ENHANCE THE MIXING PROFILE.
HAVE UPGRADED THE WATCH TO A GALE WARNING FOR THE OUTER GEORGIA
WATERS ACCORDINGLY.

GALE CRITERIA WILL BE MORE MARGINAL FOR THE NEARSHORE SOUTH
CAROLINA WATERS NORTH OF EDISTO TONIGHT. THE COOLER WATERS WILL
KEEP CONDITIONS MORE STABLE AND REDUCE THE POTENTIAL TO TAP INTO
THE INTENSE LOW LEVEL JET. HOWEVER BUOY 4 IS ALREADY GUSTING OVER
30 KT THIS HOUR...AND CONSIDERING THE LOW LEVEL WINDS WILL NOT
PEAK UNTIL AROUND MIDNIGHT...HAVE DECIDED TO RAISE A MARGINAL GALE
WARNING FOR THE NORTHERN SOUTH CAROLINA WATERS AS WELL. FEEL THAT
THE CRITERIA WILL MAINLY BE MET THROUGH FREQUENT GUSTS TO 35 KT
AND WILL LIKELY BE LIMITED OUT TO 10 AND 20 NM FROM SHORE.

ALL OTHER MARINE ZONES WILL REMAIN IN SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY
CRITERIA THROUGH TONIGHT. SOUTH TO SOUTHEAST WINDS WILL VEER TO
THE SOUTHWEST BY DAYBREAK MONDAY...WITH GALE CONDITIONS LIKELY
DECREASING AS THE LOW LEVEL JET SHIFTS TO THE NORTHEAST.

HAVE REMOVED MENTION OF SEA FOG FOR THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT.
WILL CONTINUE TO MONITOR TRENDS...HOWEVER THE STRONG SURFACE FLOW
OVER THE WATERS IS NOT FAVORABLE FOR FOG FORMATION.

WINDS AND SEAS WILL STAY UP BEHIND THE FRONT MONDAY AND MONDAY
NIGHT INTO EARLY TUESDAY...THEN SLOWLY SUBSIDE TUESDAY NIGHT INTO
WEDNESDAY. SCAS WILL LIKELY BE NEEDED UNTIL SOMETIME TUESDAY...AND
EVEN LATER FOR THE OFFSHORE GEORGIA WATERS.

&&

.TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING...
TIDES CONTINUE TO RUN OVER 1 FT ABOVE PREDICTED LEVELS THIS
AFTERNOON. WHILE ELEVATED TIDES SHOULD REMAIN BELOW SHALLOW SALT
WATER FLOODING LEVELS DURING THE PREDAWN HIGH TIDE MONDAY
MORNING...HEAVY RAIN COULD FALL DURING THAT TIDE CYCLE AND
LOCALIZED FLOODING COULD OCCUR IN COASTAL COUNTIES.

MEANWHILE...STRENGTHENING ONSHORE WINDS SHOULD PUSH 5 TO 7 FT
BREAKERS INTO THE SURF ZONE THIS AFTERNOON THROUGH MONDAY
MORNING...JUSTIFYING A HIGH SURF ADVISORY FOR ALL COASTAL
COUNTIES.

&&

.CHS WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
GA...HIGH SURF ADVISORY UNTIL 11 AM EST MONDAY FOR GAZ117-119-139-
     141.
