AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHARLESTON SC
424 PM EDT FRI MAY 27 2011

.SYNOPSIS...
A TROUGH ALOFT WILL IMPACT THE AREA THROUGH TONIGHT...FOLLOWED BY
ATLANTIC HIGH PRESSURE SATURDAY THROUGH INTO THE MIDDLE OF NEXT
WEEK. A COLD FRONT COULD APPROACH THE REGION FROM THE NORTH LATE
NEXT WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM SATURDAY MORNING/...
ROBUST UPPER LEVEL ENERGY WITHIN A TROUGH SHIFTING ACROSS THE
EAST COAST...COMBINED WITH ABUNDANT BOUNDARY INTERACTIONS...HAVE
SUPPORTED THE DEVELOPMENT OF STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS
GENERALLY ALONG AND WEST OF INTERSTATE 95. MAIN FORECAST CONCERN
IS THE POTENTIAL FOR CONVECTION TO PERSIST INTO THE EVENING AND
NIGHTTIME HOURS.

WATER VAPOR IMAGERY SHOWS THE UPPER TROUGH WITH EMBEDDED SHORTWAVE
ENERGY CURRENTLY STRETCHED FROM THE NEW ENGLAND STATES SOUTHWARD
INTO THE SOUTHEAST STATES THIS AFTERNOON. FORECAST MODELS INDICATE
THE WEAKENING TROUGH GRADUALLY SLIPPING OFF THE EAST COAST
OVERNIGHT...WITH SEVERAL WEAK SHORTWAVES CROSSING THE REGION.
SEVERAL MODELS SUGGEST SOME PRECIPITATION COULD IMPACT THE
FORECAST AREA THROUGH AT LEAST MIDNIGHT...WITH LINGERING SYNOPTIC
SUPPORT POSSIBLY OVERCOMING WANING DAYTIME HEATING AND INSTABILITY.
ANY EVENING OR NIGHTTIME SHOWER/THUNDERSTORMS COULD BE THE
COMBINED RESULT OF LINGERING BOUNDARY INTERACTIONS FROM EARLIER
CONVECTION AND UPSTREAM STORMS PUSHING INTO THE WESTERN COUNTIES.

WILL GENERALLY TREND POPS DOWNWARD INTO THE EVENING HOURS...WHILE
MAINTAINING SOLID CHANCE POPS INLAND AND NORTHERN AREAS UNTIL
AROUND MIDNIGHT TO ACCOUNT FOR ANY UPSTREAM CONVECTION AND THE
PROXIMITY OF APPROACHING SHORTWAVE ENERGY WITHIN THE TROUGH. WILL
MAINTAIN JUST SLIGHT CHANCE POPS DURING THE EARLY MORNING AND PRE-
DAWN HOURS SATURDAY...FAVORING NORTHERN ZONES AS THE TROUGH SLOWLY
LIFTS NORTH AND EAST. ALTHOUGH CLIMATOLOGY WOULD SUGGEST THAT THE
STRENGTH OF CONVECTION WILL DIMINISH OVERNIGHT...GIVEN THE
AFOREMENTIONED BOUNDARIES AND ENERGY ALOFT...CANNOT RULE OUT ANY
ISOLATED STORMS FROM BECOMING STRONG TO SEVERE THIS EVENING AND
TONIGHT.

LOW TEMPERATURES WILL RANGE FROM THE MID 60S FAR INLAND TO THE LOWER
70S NEAR THE COAST. SOME PATCHY FOG DEVELOPMENT IS POSSIBLE IN LOCATIONS
THAT EXPERIENCED SIGNIFICANT RAINFALL...HOWEVER RESIDUAL CLOUD COVER
ADDS SOME UNCERTAINTY TO THE EXTENT AND DURATION AT THIS TIME.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM SATURDAY MORNING THROUGH MONDAY/...
SATURDAY...A SHEAR AXIS...THE REMNANTS OF THE UPPER TROUGH...WILL
PERSIST OVER EASTERN SC BETWEEN AN UPPER RIDGE OVER THE WESTERN
ATLANTIC AND ANOTHER UPPER RIDGE BUILDING TOWARD THE REGION FROM THE
SW. A FEW SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS COULD BE ONGOING IN THE VICINITY OF
THE SHEAR AXIS TO START THE DAY OVER THE COASTAL WATERS AND SC
COASTAL COUNTIES. THEN...DESTABILIZATION AND SEA BREEZE CONVERGENCE
COULD PUSH THE THREAT FOR ISOLATED/SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS INLAND
DURING THE AFTERNOON.

SUNDAY/MONDAY...THE UPPER RIDGE WILL STRENGTHEN AND EXPAND ACROSS
THE EASTERN US. WHILE ISOLATED DIURNAL SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS CANNOT
BE RULED OUT ALONG THE SEA BREEZE DURING THE DAY AND OVER COASTAL
WATERS AT NIGHT...SUBSIDENCE/CAPPING SHOULD GREATLY LIMIT
COVERAGE/DURATION OF DEEP MOIST CONVECTION. THUS...HELD POPS BELOW
15 PERCENT SUNDAY THROUGH MONDAY.

ONSHORE FLOW SHOULD HOLD TEMPERATURES CLOSE TO NORMAL THROUGH THE
PERIOD.

&&

.LONG TERM /MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY/...
THE BLOCKING PATTERN FEATURING THE DEEP LAYER UPPER RIDGE SHOULD
PERSIST WITH LITTLE/NO DIURNAL PRECIPITATION AND NEAR NORMAL
TEMPERATURES THROUGH MIDWEEK. THEN...THE UPPER RIDGE WILL SHIFT WEST
DURING THE LATTER HALF OF THE WEEK...ALLOWING AN UPPER TROUGH TO
AMPLIFY OVER THE NE US AND PUSHING A COLD FRONT TOWARD THE FORECAST
AREA. WHILE THE FRONT COULD EVENTUALLY STALL NORTH OF THE REGION...A
WEAKENED CAP AND POOLING OF MOISTURE/INSTABILITY SOUTH OF THE
BOUNDARY SHOULD SUPPORT AN INCREASING CHANCE FOR
SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS THURSDAY/FRIDAY.

&&

.AVIATION /20Z FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
HAVE EXTENDED THE TEMPO GROUP FOR -TSRA AT KSAV DUE TO A LINGERING
THUNDERSTORM IMPACTING THE TERMINAL. ONCE THIS THUNDERSTORM
DISSIPATES OR MOVES OUT OF THE AREA...EXPECT A LULL IN CONVECTION
AT BOTH TERMINALS FOR THE NEXT FEW HOURS. NIGHTTIME CONVECTIVE
COVERAGE IS TOO UNCERTAIN TO INCLUDE IN THE TAFS AT THIS TIME. ALTHOUGH
THERE WILL BE PLENTY OF LINGERING LOW LEVEL MOISTURE...CONSIDERING
SCATTERED CLOUD COVERAGE OVERNIGHT...WILL KEEP VISIBILITIES VFR
FOR NOW.

EXTENDED AVIATION OUTLOOK...NO SIGNIFICANT WEATHER IS EXPECTED.

&&

.MARINE...
THE LOCAL WATERS WILL BE LOCATED ACROSS THE WESTERN SIDE OF THE
ATLANTIC RIDGE THROUGH TONIGHT. SOUTHERLY WINDS WILL LIKELY
REMAIN AROUND 15 KT THIS EVENING AND OVERNIGHT...WITH THE WAVE
SPECTRUM COMPRISED MAINLY OF SHORT PERIOD WIND DRIVEN WAVES OF 3
OR 4 FT. ALTHOUGH CONVECTIVE COVERAGE TONIGHT IS UNCERTAIN...MARINERS
ARE ADVISED THAT THERE REMAINS A SLIGHT CHANCE FOR THUNDERSTORMS
TO IMPACT THE WATERS WITH A SMALL POTENTIAL OF SOME GUSTY WINDS
FROM STRONGER STORMS.

SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY CONDITIONS ARE NOT EXPECTED SATURDAY THROUGH
WEDNESDAY. S/SE WINDS SATURDAY WILL TURN TOWARD THE E AND EVEN
OCCASIONALLY NE...ENHANCED EACH DAY BY THE SEA BREEZE
CIRCULATION...AS HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS AND PERSISTS NE OF THE
WATERS. THE LONG DURATION E/NE FLOW COULD PUSH SEAS TO AS HIGH AS
3-5 FT EARLY TO MID WEEK.

&&

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