Area forecast discussion, Jun 28, 1:08 PM EDT, 1 hour 37 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHARLESTON SC
108 PM EDT TUE JUN 28 2011

.SYNOPSIS...
THE REGION WILL REMAIN BETWEEN ATLANTIC HIGH PRESSURE AND INLAND
LOW PRESSURE INTO MID WEEK WHILE A COLD FRONT APPROACHES FROM THE
NORTHWEST. THE FRONT WILL STALL OUT OVER THE AREA WEDNESDAY NIGHT
THROUGH THURSDAY AS HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN FROM THE NORTH.
ATLANTIC HIGH PRESSURE RE-BUILDS OVER THE WEEKEND.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
EARLY AFTERNOON ADJUSTMENTS WERE MADE TO ACCOUNT FOR A COUPLE OF
THINGS. I WENT WITH SLIGHTLY LOWER TEMPS IN SOUTHERN ZONES DUE TO
MORE EXTENSIVE CLOUD COVER THIS MORNING...AND I INCREASED THE POPS
MORE QUICKLY OVER THE INTERIOR DUE TO THE RAPID CONVECTIVE
DEVELOPMENT OVER THE PAST HOUR. ALL UPDATED PRODUCTS HAVE BEEN SENT.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH FRIDAY/...
TONIGHT...CONVECTION SHOULD BE ONGOING DURING THE EVENING...OR AT
THE LEAST PROGRESSING TOWARD THE AREA FROM THE NORTHWEST AHEAD OF
A WEAK COLD FRONT. WILL CARRY HIGHEST POPS /50S/ DURING THE
EVENING...THEN DIMINISH THEM SLOWLY THROUGH THE NIGHT. LOWS IN THE
LOWER/MID 70S AWAY FROM THE MILDER COASTLINE.

WEDNESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY...A WEAK NORTHWEST FLOW PATTERN IS
EXPECTED MIDWEEK AS MID/UPPER LVL RIDGING OCCURS OVER THE CENTRAL
UNITED STATES WHILE ATLANTIC RIDGING RETREATS EASTWARD OVER THE
WESTERN ATLANTIC. A WEAK SFC FRONT WILL LIKELY STALL OVER THE
FORECAST AREA BY WEDNESDAY...PROVIDING ENOUGH LIFTING TO PRODUCE A
CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON. PERIODS
OF SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS MAY BE ENHANCED BY WEAK AREAS OF LOW
PRESSURE THAT DEVELOP ALONG THE STALLED BOUNDARY AND AN INLAND
MOVING SEABREEZE. PWATS EXCEEDING 2.0 INCHES...MARGINAL MID LVL
LAPSE RATES...AND SBCAPES APPROACHING 2500 J/KG FAVOR
THUNDERSTORMS CAPABLE OF PRODUCING HEAVY RAINFALL. CANNOT RULE OUT
A FEW STRONG PULSE THUNDERSTORMS WITH GUSTY WINDS SHOULD THERE BE
SUFFICIENT BREAKS IN CLOUD COVER DURING PEAK HEATING HOURS.

1000-850MB THICKNESS VALUES SUPPORT HIGH TEMPS IN THE LOW 90S
WEDNESDAY...BUT INCREASING CLOUD COVER MAY LOWER OVERALL HIGH TEMPS
A FEW DEGREES. OVERNIGHT LOWS ARE EXPECTED TO BE IN THE LOW
70S...WITH MID/UPPER 70S ALONG THE IMMEDIATE SC AND GA COASTLINE.

THURSDAY AND FRIDAY...SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY WILL BE
PRIMARILY DRIVEN BY LINGERING MOISTURE NEAR THE STALLED BOUNDARY
OVER SOUTHERN PORTIONS OF THE FORECAST AREA THURSDAY. HAVE
MAINTAINED LOW END SLIGHT CHANCE POPS OVER SOUTH CAROLINA AND LOW
END CHANCE POPS OVER EXTREME SOUTHEAST GEORGIA THURSDAY AFTERNOON. A
DRY FORECAST IS ANTICIPATED THURSDAY NIGHT AND FRIDAY AS SFC HIGH
PRESSURE SETTLES OVER THE REGION AND A LIGHT NORTHERLY FLOW
DEVELOPS. OVERALL HIGH TEMPS WILL BE NEAR NORMAL IN THE LOW 90S.
OVERNIGHT LOWS WILL BE AROUND 70...WITH MID 70S ALONG THE IMMEDIATE
COAST.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY/...
CONDITIONS APPEAR DRY THROUGH SATURDAY AS WEAK SFC HIGH PRESSURE
REMAINS OVER THE SOUTHEAST WHILE MID/UPPER LVL RIDGING FLATTENS AND
EXPANDS FROM THE WEST. OVERALL HIGH TEMPS WILL BE IN THE LOW 90S
SATURDAY...THEN GRADUALLY WARM INTO THE LOW/MID 90S SUNDAY AS THE
MID/UPPER LVL RIDGE EXPANDS FURTHER OVER THE SOUTHEAST. ISOLATED
SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS ARE POSSIBLE BY LATE WEEKEND INTO EARLY NEXT
WEEK AS LIGHT ONSHORE FLOW RETURNS AND LEE SIDE TROUGHING DEVELOPS
OVER THE MIDLANDS. OVERALL HIGH TEMPS WILL RUN A FEW DEGREES ABOVE
NORMAL NEXT WEEK...IN THE LOW/MID 90S. OVERNIGHT LOWS WILL BE IN THE
LOW 70S...WITH MID/UPPER 70S ALONG THE IMMEDIATE COAST.

&&

.AVIATION /17Z TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
VFR CONDITIONS WILL PREVAIL AT BOTH KSAV AND KCHS THROUGH THE
PERIOD. CB/S POSSIBLE LATE IN THE AFTERNOON AT BOTH TAF
SITES...WITH SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS POSSIBLE THEREAFTER THROUGH
AT LEAST EARLY EVENING. THE APPROACH OF A WEAK COLD FRONT FROM THE
NORTHWEST COULD KEEP RAIN CHANCES GOING LONGER THAN NORMAL
TONIGHT. HOWEVER...WILL ADDRESS THE CONVECTIVE POSSIBILITIES WITH
LATER TAF ISSUANCES AS CHANCES ARE TOO LOW TO MENTION ATTM.
OTHERWISE...EXPECT GUSTY CONDITIONS THIS AFTERNOON WITH THE SEA
BREEZE...ESPECIALLY AT KCHS.

EXTENDED AVIATION OUTLOOK...MVFR/IFR CONDITIONS POSSIBLE WEDNESDAY
WITH SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS...OTHERWISE VFR.

&&

.MARINE...
TODAY AND TONIGHT...WINDS ARE JUST A BIT LIGHTER THAN FORECAST SO
FAR THIS MORNING...BUT NOT ENOUGH TO MAKE ANY CHANGES FOR THIS
AFTERNOON. WINDS COULD KICK UP CLOSE TO ADVISORY LEVELS IN CHS
HARBOR AND EVEN THE CHARLESTON COUNTY WATERS OUT TO 20 NM LATER
TODAY/TONIGHT BUT WILL LEAVE THE FORECAST HEADLINE FREE FOR NOW.

WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY...WEAK AREAS OF LOW PRESSURE MAY DEVELOP
ALONG A STALLED BOUNDARY OVER OR NEAR THE COASTAL WATERS
WEDNESDAY...RESULTING IN PERIODS OF SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS THROUGH
WEDNESDAY EVENING. OTHERWISE...WINDS AND SEAS ARE EXPECTED TO
REMAIN WELL BELOW SCA CRITERIA WEDNESDAY THROUGH EARLY NEXT WEEK.
OVERALL...SEAS WILL 2 TO 3 FT WITH WINDS BELOW 15 KT.

&&

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