AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHARLESTON SC
407 PM EDT TUE SEP 27 2011

.SYNOPSIS...
A WEAK TROUGH OF LOW PRESSURE WILL LINGER OVER OR NEAR THE AREA
THROUGH MID WEEK...BEFORE A COLD FRONT APPROACHES THE REGION LATE
IN THE WEEK. A COOLER AND DRIER AIR MASS WILL PUSH INTO THE REGION
BEHIND THE FRONT DURING THE WEEKEND AND PERSIST INTO EARLY NEXT
WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM WEDNESDAY MORNING/...
CURRENTLY...REGIONAL RADAR IMAGERY SHOWS AN AREA OF THUNDERSTORMS
DEVELOPING ACROSS CENTRAL GA ALONG A REMNANT OUTFLOW BOUNDARY
FROM MORNING CONVECTION. THIS FEATURE SHOWS UP WELL ON WATER VAPOR
IMAGERY AS A SHORTWAVE AND VORT MAX MOVING EASTWARD AROUND THE
SOUTHERN PERIPHERY OF THE LARGE UPPER LOW CENTERED OVER THE
SOUTHERN PORTION OF LAKE MICHIGAN. OPERATIONAL MODELS HANDLE THIS
AREA OF CONVECTION AND SHORTWAVE ENERGY DIFFERENTLY...AND THE
HOURLY RUNS OF THE HRRR SEEM TO HAVE THE BEST HANDLE ON THE
CURRENT SITUATION. IT LOOKS LIKE THE MAIN PART OF THIS FEATURE
WILL BEGIN MOVING INTO THE FAR WESTERN PORTION OF THE CWA AROUND
22Z...6PM EDT...AND PUSH EASTWARD ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA. ITS
HARD TO SAY AT THIS POINT WHAT KIND OF COVERAGE WILL RESULT AND I
HAVE PAINTED IN SOME 40 POP ACROSS THE SE GA ZONES AND TRACK THIS
EASTWARD THROUGH THE EVENING. BASED ON THE 16Z HRRR...IT LOOKS
LIKE THE CONVECTION WILL DIMINISH AS IT MOVES EASTWARD ACROSS THE
FORECAST AREA AS IT WILL MISS PEAK HEATING. THE SPC MESOANALYSIS
PAGE SHOWS SOME MODERATE TO HIGH VALUES OF DCAPE ACROSS THE AREA
AHEAD OF THE APPROACHING THUNDERSTORMS...SO THERE IS SOME THREAT
OF ISOLATED STRONG TO SEVERE STORMS CAPABLE OF PRODUCING STRONG
DAMAGING WIND GUSTS.

THEN...HEADING INTO THE OVERNIGHT THERE IS VIRTUALLY NO CHANGE IN
THE LARGE SCALE PATTERN. THE UPPER LOW TO THE NW WILL BE NEARLY
STATIONARY AND THE CONVECTIVELY INDUCED SHORTWAVE WILL BE THE ONLY
REAL FEATURE OF INTEREST. I HAVE ADDED CHANCE POPS OVER THE
COASTAL WATERS WHERE THE BETTER INSTABILITY WILL BE THROUGH
WEDNESDAY MORNING. LOWS WILL FALL INTO THE UPPER 60S FURTHER
INLAND...AND LOW 70S NEAR THE BEACHES. I HAVE ADDED A PATCH FOG
MENTION TO THE SE GA AREA AND BORDERING SC ZONES WITH LINGERING
HIGH BOUNDARY LAYER MOISTURE IN PLACE.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM WEDNESDAY MORNING THROUGH FRIDAY/...
A CLOSED UPPER LEVEL LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL LINGER OVER THE OHIO
VALLEY ON WEDNESDAY...BEFORE WEAKENING AS IT GRADUALLY LIFTS
NORTHEAST INTO THE GREAT LAKES REGION WEDNESDAY NIGHT. MEANWHILE...A
SURFACE TROUGH WILL REMAIN IN PLACE INLAND OF THE FORECAST AREA MOST
OF THE DAY...BEFORE SHIFTING TOWARD THE COAST LATE. DEEP
MOISTURE...SHORT WAVE ENERGY PASSING ALOFT WITHIN THE BASE OF THE
UPPER LEVEL LOW...AND MESOSCALE BOUNDARY INTERACTIONS WILL SUPPORT A
CHANCE FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE AREA...MAINLY
WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON INTO WEDNESDAY EVENING. A CONTINUED WARM
SOUTHERLY FLOW AHEAD OF THE TROUGH WILL SUPPORT HIGH TEMPERATURES
ABOVE NORMAL ONCE AGAIN WITH UPPER 80S PREDOMINANT ACROSS MOST OF
THE AREA. A SLIGHT COOLING TREND WILL START TO TAKE PLACE WEDNESDAY
NIGHT AS CLEARING BEGINS TO DEVELOP AS THE FLOW SHIFTS OFFSHORE.

THE UPPER LOW WILL OPEN UP INTO A TROUGH ON THURSDAY AS IT LIFTS
NORTHEAST INTO NEW ENGLAND AND EVENTUALLY GETS ABSORBED BY ANOTHER
LOW DROPPING ACROSS THE GREAT LAKES REGION. A WEAK COLD FRONT
ASSOCIATED WITH THE WEAKENING UPPER LEVEL TROUGH WILL SWING THROUGH
THE AREA ON THURSDAY...USHERING IN A DRIER AIRMASS WITHIN A WESTERLY
FLOW. THERE IS A LOW PROBABILITY FOR SHOWERS NEAR THE IMMEDIATE
COAST THURSDAY MORNING...BUT OVERALL CLEARING AND RAIN FREE
CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED DURING THE DAY. HIGHS ON THURSDAY WILL
REMAIN ABOVE NORMAL...GENERALLY IN THE UPPER 80S...WITH A DOWNSLOPE
FLOW BECOMING MORE OF A FACTOR THAN THE WEAK COLD AIR ADVECTION
ALOFT. TEMPERATURES THURSDAY NIGHT WILL DROP SLIGHTLY BELOW NORMAL
WITH GOOD RADIATIONAL COOLING CONDITIONS EXPECTED.

UPPER LEVEL TROUGHING WILL EXPAND SOUTHWARD ACROSS THE EASTERN U.S.
ON FRIDAY...WHILE AT THE SURFACE A REINFORCING COLD FRONT APPEARS TO
APPROACH FROM THE NORTHWEST. LIMITED MOISTURE WILL KEEP RAIN FREE
CONDITIONS IN PLACE ON FRIDAY. A LACK OF ANY SIGNIFICANT COLD AIR
ADVECTION WILL ALSO KEEP TEMPERATURES ABOVE NORMAL BUT SLIGHTLY
COOLER THAN PREVIOUS DAYS.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY/...
NUMERICAL MODELS SHOW RATHER STRONG DYNAMICS ON SATURDAY...AS THE
ELONGATED UPPER TROUGH CROSSES THE EAST COAST. COLD AND DRY HIGH
PRESSURE WILL MAKE A STRONGER PUSH SOUTHEAST INTO THE
REGION...INITIATING ROBUST COLD ADVECTION ACROSS THE MID ATLANTIC
AND SOUTHEAST STATES. WHETHER THIS DEVELOPMENT COULD BE CONSIDERED
ANOTHER FRONTAL PASSAGE IS STILL UNCERTAIN...HOWEVER THE MOST
CONSIDERABLE TEMPERATURE CHANGE IS EXPECTED TO OCCUR OVER THE
WEEKEND. HIGH TEMPERATURES COULD BE SUPPRESSED IN THE 70S WITHIN
NORTH/NORTHEAST FLOW AND UNDER ABUNDANT SUNSHINE. BELOW NORMAL LOW
TEMPERATURES IN THE 50S BOTH SATURDAY AND SUNDAY NIGHT WILL BE
THE COMBINED RESULT OF COLD ADVECTION AND DECENT RADIATIONAL
COOLING UNDER CLEAR SKIES AND DIMINISHING NOCTURNAL WINDS.

COLD ADVECTION WILL DIMINISH MONDAY AND TUESDAY AS THE CENTER OF
HIGH PRESSURE SHIFTS DIRECTLY OVER THE REGION. THIS WILL ALLOW
TEMPERATURES TO MODERATE SLIGHTLY...WHILE STILL REMAINING A
DEGREE OR TWO BELOW SEASONAL NORMALS. RAIN FREE WEATHER IS
EXPECTED TO CONTINUE INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK.

&&

.AVIATION /20Z TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
OVERALL...VFR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED TO PREVAIL AT BOTH KSAV AND
KCHS THROUGH THE TAF PERIOD. THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING...I STILL
HAVE NOT INCLUDED ANY MENTION OF SHOWERS OR STORMS AS COVERAGE
AROUND THE SITES IS EXPECTED TO BE PRETTY LOW. HOWEVER...WILL
CONTINUE THE CB THROUGH THE EVENING. WINDS WILL TURN MORE
SOUTHERLY AFTER THE PASSAGE OF THE SEA BREEZE BUT GENERALLY LESS
THAN 10 KTS. OVERNIGHT...THERE IS AT LEAST SOME POSSIBILITY FG AND
STRATUS WITH THE CONTINUED HIGH BOUNDARY LAYER MOISTURE. MODEL
GUIDANCE IS A BIT MIXED AND GIVEN THE CONDITIONS FROM LAST NIGHT I
HAVE DECIDED TO JUST HINT AT SOME MVFR LEVEL CLOUDS AT BOTH SITES
STARTING IN THE EARLY MORNING HOURS FOR NOW.

EXTENDED AVIATION OUTLOOK...PERIODS OF MVFR OR LOWER CIGS/VSBYS WILL
BE POSSIBLE AT TIMES THROUGH THURSDAY MORNING DUE TO ISOLATED TO
SCATTERED SHRA/TSRA DURING THE AFTERNOON/EVENING HOURS AND LATE
NIGHT/EARLY MORNING FOG/STRATUS. OTHERWISE...VFR CONDITIONS SHOULD
PREVAIL.

&&

.MARINE...
TONIGHT THE PRESSURE PATTERN ACROSS THE WATERS WILL REMAIN FAIRLY
WEAK...FAVORING S TO SW WINDS AROUND 10 KTS. SEAS HAVE DECREASED
OVER THE LAST 24 HOURS OR SO...THOUGH THERE IS STILL A SWELL
COMPONENT AROUND 5 FT AND 11 SECONDS BEYOND 20 NM. THE SCA FOR THE
OUTER GA WATERS WILL BE ALLOWED TO EXPIRE AS EXPECTED. SWELL WILL
BE PERSISTENT THROUGHOUT THE OVERNIGHT BUT ON THE DECREASING TREND
TO AROUND 4 FT AND 10 SECONDS BY WEDNESDAY MORNING.

SOUTH TO SOUTHWEST FLOW WILL PREVAIL ON WEDNESDAY...THEN VEER TO THE
WEST ON THURSDAY AS A COLD FRONT SHIFTS INTO THE REGION. MODERATE
WEST FLOW WILL PREVAIL THROUGH FRIDAY...UNTIL A SECONDARY COLD
FRONT INITIATES STRONG COLD ADVECTION ACROSS THE REGION THROUGH
THE WEEKEND. WINDS AND SEAS ARE EXPECTED TO REMAIN BELOW ADVISORY
LEVELS THROUGH AT LEAST FRIDAY. ONCE STRONG HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS
FROM THE NORTHWEST AND PUSHES THE COLDER AIR MASS INTO THE FORECAST
AREA LATE FRIDAY INTO SATURDAY...WINDS WILL QUICKLY VEER TO THE
NORTH/NORTHEAST AND SURGE DOWN THE COAST. SMALL CRAFT ADVISORIES MAY
BE NEEDED FOR PORTIONS OF THE WATERS DURING THIS PERIOD FOR BOTH
WINDS AND SEAS.

RIP CURRENTS...A MODERATE RISK FOR RIP CURRENTS WILL BE MAINTAINED
FOR ALL BEACHES WEDNESDAY DUE TO ONGOING TIDAL AND LUNAR INFLUENCES
AS WELL AS A PERSISTENT 3 FT/9-11 SECOND SWELL.

&&

.TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING...
ASTRONOMICAL HIGH TIDES WILL CONTINUE THROUGHOUT THE WEEK...AND
AIDED BY OCCASIONAL INCREASES IN ONSHORE WINDS AND A LITTLE HIGHER
THAN NORMAL SURF...SHALLOW COASTAL FLOODING IS POSSIBLE...ESPECIALLY
ALONG THE SOUTH CAROLINA COAST.

&&
