AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHARLESTON SC
705 PM EDT SUN JUL 31 2011

.SYNOPSIS...
A TROUGH OF LOW PRESSURE WILL PERSIST AT THE SURFACE MUCH OF THE
WEEK WHILE UPPER HIGH PRESSURE MOVES IN FROM THE WEST LATE IN THE
WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM MONDAY MORNING/...
KCLX RADAR SHOWS NUMEROUS CONVECTIVE OUTFLOWS MOVING INTO INTERIOR
SOUTHEAST GEORGIA WHERE THE ATMOSPHERE HAS YET TO BE OVERTURNED.
MEANWHILE...TWO CLUSTERS OF STRONG/SEVERE CONTINUE ACROSS PARTS OF
COLLETON...CHARLESTON AND DORCHESTER COUNTIES AS WELL AS BRYAN AND
LIBERTY COUNTIES. HAVE UPDATED GRIDS TO TAKE CURRENT SHORT TERM
TRENDS INTO ACCOUNT SHOWING THE HIGHEST POPS SLOWLY TRANSITIONING
INTO INTERIOR SOUTHEAST GEORGIA OVER THE NEXT FEW HOURS.

GUIDANCE STILL SUGGESTS A SECONDARY AREA OF SHOWER/TSTMS COULD
IMPACT AREAS FROM CHARLESTON DOWN TO SAVANNAH LATER TONIGHT AS YET
ANOTHER IMPULSE MOVES THROUGH IN THE NORTHWEST FLOW ALOFT. THIS
WILL HAVE TO BE WATCHED.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM MONDAY MORNING THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
THE PERIOD WILL START WITH A BROAD LONG WAVE UPPER TROUGH OVER THE
EASTERN THIRD OF THE U.S. AND A STRONG UPPER RIDGE CENTERED OVER THE
CENTRAL PORTION OF THE COUNTRY. BY EARLY TUESDAY...THE UPPER RIDGE
SPREADS BACK EASTWARD AS THE BROAD UPPER TROUGH SHIFTS INTO THE
WESTERN ATLANTIC...WHICH WILL MAINTAIN THE VERY HOT AND HUMID
CONDITIONS.

FOR MONDAY....MODELS SEEMED TO HAVE TRENDED A TAD DRIER AS FAR AS
POPS GO. HOWEVER...GIVEN THE PRESENCE OF NW UPPER FLOW AND A
WEAK SURFACE BOUNDARY SOMEWHERE OVER THE CENTRAL AND NORTHERN
FORECAST AREA...HAVE MAINTAINED CHANCE POPS...WITH THE HIGHEST
CHANCES OVER THE SOUTHERN FORECAST AREA IN GA. DID TRIM POPS BACK A
BIT OVER THE NORTHERN ZONES TO HEDGE TOWARD DRIER MODEL
TRENDS...WHICH ARE TRYING TO PUSH THE SURFACE BOUNDARY SOUTHWARD
ALONG WITH THE DEEP LAYER MOISTURE. WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR LOWER
THAN PREVIOUSLY EXPECTED POPS AND CLOUDS...HAVE NUDGED MAX TEMPS UP
A DEG OR TWO. SURFACE TDS ARE VERY TOUGH TO FIGURE...AND WILL GOVERN
WHETHER CONDITIONS REACH HEAT ADVISORY LEVELS AGAIN. CURRENT GRIDS
INDICATE MAX HEAT INDICES OF 105-109...BUT GIVEN UNCERTAINTY IN POP
AND TD FORECAST...WILL NOT ISSUE A HEAT ADVISORY FOR MONDAY YET.

TUESDAY...AS THE UPPER RIDGE BUILDS BACK FROM THE WEST...DEEP LAYER
MOISTURE DECREASES ALONG WITH CHANCES FOR AFTERNOON CONVECTION. THE
BEST MOISTURE WILL LIKELY SIT OVER THE EXTREME SE PORTION OF THE
AREA. THEREFORE HAVE MAINTAINED SLIGHT CHANCE POPS FOR THAT AREA.
LATEST GUIDANCE STILL INDICATES MAX TEMPS IN THE MID TO UPPER
90S...AND EVEN COULD HIT 100 WELL INLAND. THESE VERY HOT TEMPS
COMBINED WITH EVEN CLIMO TYPE SURFACE TDYS...WILL LIKELY RESULT IN
HEAT ADVISORY LEVELS BE REACHED.

WEDNESDAY...LITTLE CHANGE FROM TUESDAY AS THE STRONG UPPER RIDGE
HOLDS JUST WEST OF THE AREA. ONCE AGAIN THE BEST DEEP LAYER MOISTURE
AND PRECIP CHANCES ARE EXPECTED TO BE OVER THE SOUTHERN FORECAST
AREA. HAVE LEFT SLIGHT CHANCE POPS FOR NOW IN THAT REGION. HEAT
INDICES EXPECTED TO REACH ADVISORY LEVELS AGAIN...AND MAY EVEN TOUCH
EXCESSIVE HEAT WARNING CRITERIA IN SOME SPOTS.

&&

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY/...
UPPER HIGH PRESSURE AND THE LACK OF DEEP MOISTURE SHOULD KEEP RAIN
CHANCES LOW THROUGH THURSDAY. BEYOND THAT THE FORECAST BECOMES A
BIT MORE UNCERTAIN AS MUCH DEPENDS ON THE EVENTUAL TRACK OF A LIKELY
TROPICAL CYCLONE WHICH THE GFS AND CANADIAN MODELS ARE SHOWING
MOVING NEAR OR JUST EAST OF THE BAHAMAS FRIDAY. FOR NOW HAVE
GENERALLY MAINTAINED A FORECAST PRETTY CLOSE TO CLIMATOLOGY FOR THIS
TIME OF YEAR WITH TEMPS IN THE 90S AND RAIN CHANCES NO HIGHER THAN
30 PERCENT.

&&

.AVIATION /00Z MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
KCHS...LARGE TSTM CLUSTER TO THE WEST OF THE TERMINAL LOOKS TO
PASS SOUTHWEST THROUGH 02Z. MAY HAVE TO INCLUDE A TEMPO GROUP FOR
TSRA PENDING LAST MINUTE RADAR TRENDS. OTHERWISE WILL HAVE TO
WATCH FOR POSSIBLE REDEVELOPMENT LATER THIS EVENING AS ANOTHER
DISTURBANCE PASSES THROUGH. WILL MAINTAIN CB/S FOR NOW.

KSAV...TSTMS PASSING SOUTH AND SOUTHWEST OF THE TERMINAL ATTM AND
ANOTHER DIRECT STRIKE FROM THIS APPEARS UNLIKELY. GUIDANCE
SUGGESTS ANOTHER ROUND OF TSTMS COULD IMPACT THE TERMINAL LATER
THIS EVENING SO WILL CARRY A TEMPO GROUP FOR TSRA FROM 03-05Z TO
COVER FOR NOW.

EXTENDED AVIATION OUTLOOK...SCATTERED MAINLY AFTERNOON SHOWERS
AND THUNDERSTORMS ON MONDAY...ESPECIALLY NEAR KSAV...COULD RESULT
IN BRIEF PERIODS OF MVFR/IFR CONDITIONS. ONLY ISOLATED CONVECTION
IS EXPECTED TUESDAY THROUGH THURSDAY... POSSIBLY INCREASING TO
SCATTERED BY FRIDAY.

&&

.MARINE...
LIGHT SOUTHERLY FLOW REGIME WILL DOMINATE TONIGHT WITH SEAS 2-4
FT. COULD STILL SEE A FEW STRONG TSTMS WHICH MAY REQUIRE SPECIAL
MARINE WARNINGS LATER THIS AFTERNOON/EVENING.

THE REGION WILL REMAIN GENERALLY BETWEEN BERMUDA HIGH PRESSURE EAST
OF THE REGION AND A TROUGH OF LOWER PRESSURE OVER THE CAROLINA
UPSTATE. THIS WILL PRODUCE A SOUTH TO SOUTHWEST WIND FLOW
PATTERN...WITH WINDS EXPECTED TO REMAIN 15 KTS OR LESS AND SEAS 3 FT
OR LESS. THERE COULD BE BRIEF PERIODS OF SLIGHTLY HIGHER WINDS EACH
AFTERNOON WITH THE SEA BREEZE.

WILL CONTINUE TO MONITOR THE PROGRESS OF THE TROPICAL WAVE...
CURRENTLY WELL EAST OF THE WINDWARD ISLANDS.  IF THIS WAVE WERE TO
STRENGTHEN INTO A TROPICAL SYSTEM AND TRACK WEST-NORTHWEST THIS
WEEK...THEN THE LONGER PERIOD SWELL GENERATED FROM THIS SYSTEM COULD
BEGIN TO REACH THE WATERS BY LATE IN THE WORK WEEK.

&&

.CHS WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
GA...NONE.
SC...NONE.
MARINE...NONE.
