AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHARLESTON SC
931 PM EST SUN FEB 27 2011

.SYNOPSIS...
HIGH PRESSURE WILL GRADUALLY RETREAT FROM THE AREA TONIGHT INTO
MONDAY. A COLD FRONT WILL MOVE THROUGH THE REGION MONDAY NIGHT
FOLLOWED BY HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING INTO THE AREA THROUGH LATE THIS
WEEK. ANOTHER COLD FRONT COULD IMPACT THE AREA OVER THE WEEKEND.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM MONDAY MORNING/...
FORECAST ATTENTION REMAINS FOCUSED ON THE POTENTIAL FOR FOG
OVERNIGHT. THE 00Z KCHS RAOB REVEALED A MUCH DRIER LOW LEVEL
AIRMASS AS COMPARED TO EARLY SATURDAY EVENING. THIS RELATIVELY DRY
AIR AND PERSISTENT SOUTH WINDS HAD THUS FAR PREVENTED FOG
FORMATION. MEANWHILE...LATE SUNDAY EVENING FOG/STRATUS REMAINED
ABSENT ACROSS COASTAL WATERS. DEWPOINTS OVER THE COASTAL WATERS
REMAINED VERY CLOSE TO WATER TEMPERATURES...A SCENARIO NOT
SUPPORTIVE OF RAPID REDEVELOPMENT OF MARINE STRATUS/FOG. IF THIS
SCENARIO PERSISTS...ESPECIALLY AS LOW LEVEL WINDS STRENGTHEN
OVERNIGHT...SIGNIFICANT FOG COULD STRUGGLE TO DEVELOP ACROSS THE
FORECAST AREA. HOWEVER...EVEN A SLIGHT DECREASE IN SURFACE WINDS
AND/OR A SLIGHT INCREASE IN SURFACE DEWPOINTS OVER THE COASTAL
WATERS COULD STILL SUPPORT FAIRLY RAPID DEVELOPMENT OF DENSE FOG
ESPECIALLY ALONG/EAST OF INTERSTATE 95. SINCE ODDS STILL FAVOR
DENSE FOG DEVELOPMENT...ALBEIT LATER THAN WAS THE CASE LAST
NIGHT...HAVE MAINTAINED ONGOING DENSE FOG ADVISORIES WITHOUT
CHANGE.

OTHER FORECAST PARAMETERS REMAIN ON TRACK AND REQUIRED ONLY MINOR
ADJUSTMENTS SUNDAY EVENING.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM MONDAY MORNING THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
MONDAY/MONDAY NIGHT...REMAINING SEA FOG WILL LIKELY MIX OUT SHORTLY
AFTER DAYBREAK AS LOW-LEVEL WINDS INCREASE AHEAD OF AN APPROACHING
COLD FRONT. THE BREEZY SW WINDS WILL HELP PUSH TEMPS TO 80-83
DEGREES MOST INLAND LOCALES EXCEPT POSSIBLY THE FAR NE PORTION OF
THE FORECAST AREA WHERE SEA FOG COULD LINGER LONGEST. THIS SHOULD
PUT US WITHIN A FEW DEGREES OF THE RECORD HIGHS FOR CHARLESTON AND
SAVANNAH. THE BEACHES SHOULD HAVE A HARD TIME GETTING OUT OF THE 60S
DUE TO THE ONSHORE WINDS. S/SW WINDS WILL BECOME GUSTY AS THE
PRESSURE GRADIENT INCREASES AND STRONG LOW-LEVEL WINDS MIX DOWN TO
THE SURFACE. GUSTS COULD APPROACH 30-35 MPH FOR MANY
LOCALES...ESPECIALLY INTERIOR SE GEORGIA AND SRN SOUTH CAROLINA.
THIS WILL BE BELOW ADVISORY LEVELS BUT MOTORISTS SHOULD BE ALERT FOR
GUSTY WINDS...ESPECIALLY ON BRIDGES AND OVERPASSES.

THE BULK OF THE SHOWERS/STORMS SHOULD HOLD OFF UNTIL LATE AFTERNOON
ACROSS FAR INTERIOR PORTIONS OF THE FORECAST AREA. POPS ARE TRICKY
SINCE THIS ACTIVITY LOOKS TO BE IN A WEAKENING MODE AS IT HEADS
TOWARD THE COAST. DECIDED TO KEEP POPS IN THE CHANCE RANGE FOR NOW.
COULD SEE A FEW STRONG STORMS TRYING TO MAKE THEIR WAY TOWARD THE
AREA LATE IN THE DAY BUT WITH WANING LOW-LEVEL INSTABILITY WE DO NOT
ANTICIPATE MUCH IN THE WAY OF SEVERE WEATHER. HOWEVER...THE CHANCES
ARE NOT ZERO AS INDICATED BY THE STORM PREDICTION CENTER DAY TWO
CONVECTIVE OUTLOOK...ESPECIALLY IF THE STORMS MOVE IN QUICKER THAN
ANTICIPATED GIVEN THE IMPRESSIVE WIND FIELDS. THE PRECIP SHOULD BE
GONE BY DAYBREAK TUESDAY. LOWS WILL RANGE FROM THE LOWER/MID 50S
NORTHWEST TO UPPER 50S SOUTHEAST. RAINFALL AMOUNTS SHOULD BE A
QUARTER INCH OR LESS.

TUESDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY...DRY CONDITIONS AS HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS
INTO THE REGION FROM THE NORTH BEHIND THE COLD FRONT. WINDS WILL
REMAIN BREEZY TUESDAY...ESPECIALLY NEAR THE COAST...DUE TO THE
RELATIVELY TIGHT PRESSURE GRADIENT. TEMPERATURES LOOK TO BE PUSHED
BACK TO NEAR NORMAL AS A MUCH COOLER AIRMASS SETTLES INTO THE AREA.
COULD SEE SOME MID 30S WELL INLAND BY WEDNESDAY MORNING WITH THE
POTENTIAL FOR A LITTLE BIT OF FROST.

LAKE WINDS...AHEAD OF THE APPROACHING COLD FRONT...WINDS SHOULD
FREQUENTLY GUST TO AT LEAST 25 KNOTS ON LAKE MOULTRIE LATE MONDAY
MORNING THROUGH EARLY MONDAY EVENING. PER COLLABORATION WITH WFO
CAE...ISSUED A LAKE WIND ADVISORY.

&&

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY/...
SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE WILL CONTINUE TO BUILD FROM THE NORTH
WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY AS MODELS INDICATE A WEDGE PATTERN
DEVELOPING OVER THE AREA. COULD SEE SOME RAIN AS EARLY AS FRIDAY AS
A TROUGH OF LOW PRESSURE ALONG THE COAST AFFECTS THE AREA. RAIN
CHANCES WILL INCREASE OVER THE WEEKEND AS ANOTHER COLD FRONT
APPROACHES BUT THERE IS STILL SOME UNCERTAINTY REGARDING THE TIMING
OF THE FRONTAL PASSAGE.

&&

.AVIATION /02Z MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
VFR CONDITIONS WILL DETERIORATE TO LIFR AT KSAV AND KCHS
OVERNIGHT...PERHAPS BY AROUND 06Z BUT PERHAPS LATER IF S WINDS
PERSIST. AS LOW LEVEL WINDS STRENGTHEN LATER TONIGHT...PRODUCING
LOW LEVEL WIND SHEAR AT BOTH SITES...CEILINGS/VISIBILITIES COULD
IMPROVE SOMEWHAT BUT FORECAST CONFIDENCE REMAINS LOW REGARDING
THIS SCENARIO. REGARDLESS OF WHAT TRANSPIRES LATE TONIGHT...VFR
CONDITIONS SHOULD RETURN QUICKLY MONDAY MORNING. MIXING WILL
SUPPORT WIND GUSTS 25-30 KT AT KCHS AND 20-25 KT AT KSAV MONDAY
AFTERNOON. ANY SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS SHOULD HOLD OFF UNTIL
00Z...EARLY MONDAY EVENING...OR LATER.

EXTENDED AVIATION OUTLOOK...MVFR/IFR CONDITIONS POSSIBLE WITHIN
SHOWERS/ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS MONDAY NIGHT INTO TUESDAY MORNING.

&&

.MARINE...
PER THE 00Z KCHS RAOB...THE LOW LEVEL AIRMASS REMAINS DRIER THAN WAS
THE CASE SATURDAY EVENING...AND DEWPOINTS REMAIN VERY CLOSE TO
WATER TEMPERATURES. THUS...MARINE FOG/STRATUS REMAIN ABSENT LATE
SUNDAY EVENING...AND STRENGTHENING SOUTH WINDS ARE NOT AS
FAVORABLE AS LAST NIGHT FOR MARINE FOG. HOWEVER...EVEN A SLIGHT
INCREASE IN DEWPOINTS AND THE SOUTHERLY FETCH WILL SUPPORT MARINE
FOG OVER THE COOLER SHELF WATERS OVERNIGHT. ODDS STILL FAVOR FOG
TO ENCOMPASS MOST OF THE COASTAL WATERS OVERNIGHT...THUS
MAINTAINED ONGOING DENSE FOG ADVISORIES.

WINDS WILL BE SOUTHERLY TONIGHT...AVERAGING 10 KT OR LESS THIS
EVENING...INCREASING UP TO 10-15 KT OVERNIGHT. SEAS WILL BE NEAR 2
FT THIS EVENING...BUILDING TO NEAR 3 TO 4 FT LATE AS WIND SPEEDS
INCREASE.

MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY...SEA FOG WILL LIKELY LINGER INTO MONDAY
AFTERNOON AT LEAST ACROSS PARTS OF THE MARINE AREA AND DENSE FOG
ADVISORIES ARE POSSIBLE. OTHERWISE...WINDS/SEAS WILL BE ON THE
INCREASE AS STRONG LOW-LEVEL WINDS MOVE ACROSS THE AREA IN
ASSOCIATION WITH AN APPROACHING COLD FRONT. HAVE RAISED SMALL
CRAFT ADVISORIES FOR CHARLESTON HARBOR BEGINNING IN THE AFTERNOON
AS GOOD MIXING OCCURS ALONG THE LAND-SEA INTERFACE...AS WELL AS
THE OUTER GA WATERS AND NORTHERN SC WATERS FOR GUSTS TO 25 KT AND
SEAS BUILDING UP TO 6 FT. THE SRN SC WATERS COULD GET INTO
ADVISORY CONDITIONS MONDAY NIGHT BUT CHANCES APPEAR EVEN LESS FOR
THE NEARSHORE GA WATERS. THE FRONT IS EXPECTED TO PUSH THROUGH
MONDAY NIGHT WITH HIGH PRESSURE RETURNING FROM THE NORTH AND
PERSISTING THROUGH FRIDAY. THE N/NE FLOW WILL REMAIN BRISK IN THIS
WEDGE PATTERN MUCH OF THE PERIOD AND SMALL CRAFT ADVISORIES ARE A
GOOD BET OVER ALL OR PORTIONS OF THE WATERS INTO WEDNESDAY AND
THEN POSSIBLY AGAIN AS EARLY AS LATE THURSDAY AS HIGH PRESSURE
GETS REINFORCED.

&&

.CLIMATE...
THE SUNDAY RECORD HIGH AT SAV WAS 85F. THIS TIED THE RECORD HIGH
FOR FEB 27 SET IN 1997.

ALSO OF NOTE...SUNDAY MARKED THE FIRST TIME SINCE NOVEMBER 25TH
THAT THE TEMP AT BOTH KCHS AND KSAV REACHED 80 DEGREES...A
STRETCH OF 93 DAYS. IN FACT...MOST PLACES AWAY FROM THE IMMEDIATE
COAST REACHED THE LOWER AND MIDDLE 80S.
