AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHARLESTON SC
326 PM EDT FRI AUG 12 2011

.SYNOPSIS...
A WEAK TROUGH OF LOW PRESSURE WILL REMAIN OVER THE SOUTHEAST STATES
INTO THE UPCOMING WEEKEND. A COLD FRONT WILL APPROACH THE AREA FROM
THE WEST SUNDAY AND MOVE THROUGH THE REGION SUNDAY NIGHT. HIGH
PRESSURE WILL THEN REBUILD OVER THE AREA THROUGH MUCH OF NEXT WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
A COMPLEX SURFACE PATTERN REMAINS IN PLACE ACROSS THE LOCAL
FORECAST AREA WITH A PLETHORA OF CONVECTIVE OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES
NOTED ON KCLX RADAR DATA. 12/19Z SURFACE ANALYSIS PLACED 1013MB
LOW PRESSURE AROUND THE SAVANNAH AREA AND IS EMBEDDED WITHIN A
SURFACE TROUGH EXTENDING FROM ROUGHLY WALTERBORO INTO THE SAVANNAH
METRO THEN ARCING OFFSHORE TO NEAR BUOY 41008. A STATIONARY FRONT
IS POSITIONED FARTHER INLAND ROUGHLY ALONG A MACON-ORANGEBURG-
FLORANCE-NEW BERN LINE WHERE DEWPOINTS FALL OFF FAIRLY QUICKLY TO
ITS NORTH.

SHOWERS/TSTMS CONTINUE TO DEVELOP WITHIN A MODERATELY TO
STRONGLY UNSTABLE ENVIRONMENT. SBCAPES HAVE RISEN TO 25000-4000
J/KG SOUTH OF THE CHARLESTON METRO AREA WITH LOW-LEVEL CONVERGENCE
STEADILY INCREASING ALONG THE SAVANNAH RIVER. HIGH RESOLUTION
MODEL GUIDANCE HAS BEEN CONSISTENT FOR SEVERAL RUNS NOW IN
DEVELOPING SCATTERED-NUMEROUS TSTMS BETWEEN THE SAVANNAH RIVER AND
INTERSTATE 16 OVER THE NEXT FEW HOURS WITH ACTIVITY SLOWLY WORKING
SOUTH TO THE ALTAMAHA RIVER BY SUNSET. CURRENT RADAR TRENDS
INDICATE THIS GUIDANCE IS ON TRACK WITH A RECENT UPTICK IN
CONVECTION NOTED. WILL CONTINUE TO HIGHLIGHT 50-70 PERCENT POPS
FOR A GOOD PORTION OF THE FORECAST AREA THROUGH SUNSET WITH THE
HIGHEST POPS CLUSTERED ROUGHLY ALONG AND NORTH OF I-16 UP THROUGH
BEAUFORT. ACTIVITY SHOULD BE WEAKENING AS IT DROPS SOUTH CLOSER TO
ALTAMAHA WHERE DEWPOINTS ARE LOWER SO HIGH-END CHANCE POPS NEAR 50
PERCENT SEEMS REASONABLE THERE. ACTIVITY HAS LIKELY PEAKED IN THE
CHARLESTON METRO AREA WITH THE ATMOSPHERE BEING SIGNIFICANTLY
OVERTURNED FROM EARLIER TSTMS...BUT IT WILL TAKE SOME FOR
LINGERING ACTIVITY TO WIND DOWN.

RUC WIND PROFILES INDICATE A 850-700MB COL AREA REMAINS ANCHORED
OVERHEAD AND WITH PWATS IN EXCESS OF 2 INCHES IN PLACE...TSTMS
WILL BE EFFICIENT SLOW MOVING RAIN PRODUCERS. LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN
AND POSSIBLE FLASH FLOODING IS POSSIBLE ALONG WITH A FEW DAMAGING
WET MICROBURSTS.

ACTIVITY WILL GRADUALLY WIND DOWN OVERNIGHT...ALTHOUGH A
STRENGTHENING ONSHORE FLOW COULD SUPPORT ADDITIONAL SHOWERS/TSTMS
REDEVELOPING LATE...ESPECIALLY ACROSS THE FAR NORTHERN ZONES. WILL
KEEP 20/30 PERCENT POPS IN PLACE TO TAKE THIS POSSIBILITY INTO
ACCOUNT. LOWS WILL RANGE FROM THE LOWER-MID 70S INLAND WITH MID-
UPPER 70S COAST...ALTHOUGH THEY COULD BE LOCALLY LOWER AT TIMES
IN/NEAR TSTMS.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH MONDAY/...
SATURDAY...A LINGERING SURFACE TROUGH AND DEEP MOISTURE COULD SPUR
ISOLATED SHOWERS/STORMS DURING THE MORNING HOURS. BY AFTERNOON THE
TROUGH SHOULD WEAKEN WHILE THE BEST CONVECTIVE CHANCES SHIFT INLAND
WHERE THE GREATEST SURFACE HEATING IS ANTICIPATED. SINCE THERE
APPEARS TO BE LITTLE IN THE WAY OF SHORTWAVE ENERGY TO ENHANCE
CONVECTION ON SATURDAY WE HAVE CAPPED AFTERNOON POPS AT 20-30
PERCENT. HIGHS ARE EXPECTED TO TOP OUT BETWEEN 90 AND 93.

SATURDAY NIGHT...ANY LINGERING SHOWER/THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY
SHOULD DIMINISH BY MIDNIGHT. RAIN FREE CONDITIONS THEN ANTICIPATED
THROUGH DAYBREAK SUNDAY AS THE DEEPEST MOISTURE AND STRONGEST
FORCING FOR ASCENT IN ASSOCIATION WITH THE APPROACHING COLD FRONT
REMAIN WELL WEST OF THE AREA. LOW TEMPERATURES SHOULD BOTTOM OUT
IN THE LOW TO MID 70S.

SUNDAY AND SUNDAY NIGHT...MODEL SOLUTIONS REMAIN IN GOOD
AGREEMENT SHOWING A COLD FRONT APPROACHING FROM THE WEST DURING
THE DAY THEN MOVING THROUGH THE REGION PRIOR TO DAYBREAK MONDAY.
THE COMBINATION OF DEEP MOISTURE...IMPRESSIVE DYNAMIC FORCING FOR
THIS TIME OF YEAR...AND THE AFTERNOON SEA BREEZE SHOULD RESULT IN
FAIRLY GOOD COVERAGE OF SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE AREA.
THEREFORE...WILL CONTINUE WITH THE HIGH CHANCE POPS AREA WIDE.
WILL CONTINUE TO MENTION THE POTENTIAL FOR SEVERE WEATHER IN THE
HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK AS WELL...WITH AN UNSEASONABLY STRONG
COLD FRONT AND DEEP UPPER LEVEL TROUGH MOVING THROUGH THE REGION
AND INTO A MODERATELY UNSTABLE AIRMASS. THE MAIN HAZARDS APPEAR TO
BE DAMAGING STRAIGHT LINE WINDS AND MARGINALLY SEVERE HAIL. HIGH
TEMPERATURES ARE EXPECTED TO TOP OUT IN THE LOW TO MID 90S.

EXPECT SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS TO GRADUALLY DIMINISH FROM WEST TO
EAST SUNDAY NIGHT...BUT SOME PRECIP COULD PERSIST OVER THE WATERS
INTO MONDAY MORNING. ELSEWHERE DRIER...MORE STABLE AIR MOVING IN
FROM THE NORTHWEST SHOULD RESULT IN DRY CONDITIONS FOR THE REST OF
THE DAY. EXPECT TEMPERATURES TO TOP OUT IN THE LOW TO MID 90S...BUT
THE LOWER HUMIDITY VALUES WILL BE A RELIEF FROM THE MUGGY CONDITIONS
OF LATE.

&&

.LONG TERM /MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY/...
MODEL SOLUTIONS ARE IN GOOD AGREEMENT SHOWING HIGH PRESSURE AND A
DRIER AIRMASS BUILDING OVER THE SOUTHEAST STATES THROUGH MUCH OF
NEXT WEEK. AS A RESULT...WE CONTINUE TO EXPECT A DRY PERIOD OVER
SOUTHERN SOUTH CAROLINA AND SOUTHEAST GEORGIA...AND WILL KEEP THE
FORECAST RAIN FREE AT THIS TIME. TEMPERATURES ARE EXPECTED TO RUN
NEAR TO SLIGHTLY ABOVE NORMAL...ALTHOUGH LOWER HUMIDITY LEVELS WILL
MAKE IT FEEL QUITE A BIT MORE COMFORTABLE THAN THE PAST SEVERAL
WEEKS.

&&

.AVIATION /19Z FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
INITIATED KCHS WITH TSRA AS A CLUSTER OF THUNDERSTORMS AFFECTS THE
CHARLESTON AREA. EXPECT ADDITIONAL DEVELOPMENT THIS AFTERNOON...THUS
MAINTAIN MENTION OF CB THROUGH 00Z. EXPECT CONVECTION DEVELOPMENT TO
HOLD OFF UNTIL AFTER 20Z AT KSAV...BUT MODELS SUGGEST THUNDERSTORMS
WILL LINGER A COUPLE HOURS PAST SUNSET ACROSS SOUTHEAST GEORGIA.
COVERAGE OF CONVECTION STILL REMAINS UNCERTAIN ACROSS GEORGIA
PORTIONS...THUS WILL HOLD OFF ON ANY MENTION OF TS AT KSAV FOR NOW
AND WILL HANDLE THIS WILL AMENDMENTS IF NEEDED. SREF AND SOME GUIDANCE
SUGGEST FOG DEVELOPMENT BY EARLY SATURDAY AND WITH PLENTY OF
LINGERING LOW LEVEL MOISTURE...WILL KEEP MENTION OF VFR FOG IN TAFS.
HOWEVER...CLOUD COVERAGE OVERNIGHT COULD HINDER DEVELOPMENT. WILL
REEVALUATE THIS AT THE NEXT TAF ISSUANCE.

EXTENDED AVIATION OUTLOOK...SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS MAY
BRIEFLY REDUCE VSBYS AND/OR CIGS SATURDAY THROUGH SUNDAY...PRIMARILY
DURING THE AFTERNOON/EVENING HOURS. OTHERWISE VFR CONDITIONS SHOULD
PREVAIL.

&&

.MARINE...
THERE ARE NO CONCERNS TONIGHT OUTSIDE OF TSTMS. WINDS WILL BE LESS
THAN 10 KT WITH SEAS 1-2 FT.

A WEAK TROUGH OF LOW PRESSURE WILL REMAIN OVER THE SOUTHEAST STATES
ON SATURDAY. A COLD FRONT WILL APPROACH THE AREA FROM THE WEST ON
SUNDAY AND MOVE THROUGH THE WATERS SUNDAY NIGHT. HIGH PRESSURE WILL
THEN REBUILD OVER THE AREA EARLY NEXT WEEK. OVERALL THE STRONGEST
WINDS IN THE COASTAL WATERS WILL BE AT NIGHT WITH NOCTURNAL SURGING
AND ALONG THE COAST DURING THE AFTERNOON/EVENING WITH THE SEABREEZE.
WE DO EXPECT AN ENHANCED SURGE SUNDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT
ASSOCIATED WITH THE COLD FRONTAL PASSAGE. WIND SPEEDS COULD APPROACH
SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY LEVELS FOR PORTIONS OF THE WATERS DURING THIS
PERIOD...BUT IT WOULD MAINLY BE IN OCCASIONAL GUSTS. THEREFORE AT
THIS POINT WE DO NOT FORESEE ANY ADVISORIES.

&&
