AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GREENVILLE-SPARTANBURG SC
142 PM EDT MON JUN 27 2011

.SYNOPSIS...
A WEAK STATIONARY FRONT CONTINUES TO DRIFT NORTH AND WILL DISSIPATE
ACROSS THE AREA TODAY. A COLD FRONT WILL APPROACH FROM THE NORTHWEST
ON TUESDAY AND MOVE SOUTHEAST THROUGH THE AREA TUESDAY NIGHT OR
EARLY WEDNESDAY MORNING. HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS BACK OVER THE AREA
WEDNESDAY AND PERSISTS THROUGH THE END OF THE WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
NOT MUCH CHANGE TO GOING FCST. OBSERVED THICKNESS VALUES ARE RIGHT
IN LINE WITH CURRENT HIGH TEMP FCST. 12Z RAOBS SHOW A LITTLE MORE IN
THE WAY OF MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES THAN LAST EVENING...SO MODERATE
INSTABILITY LOOKS LIKELY. THAT SAID...A MINIMUM IN CAPE IS SHOWN BY
THE LATEST SREF ALONG AND SOUTH OF I-85. CURRENT POP FCST SHOWS
LOWER POP THERE TO START...THEN HIGHER POP LATER AS CONVECTION MOVES
INTO THAT AREA. THEREFORE...WILL KEEP AS IS FOR NOW.

PREVIOUS DISCUSSION...THE UPPER PATTERN REMAINS MORE OR LESS
UNCHANGED WITH THE CAROLINAS UNDER A WEAK DIFFLUENT FLOW ALOFT ON THE
EASTERN PERIPHERY OF THE LARGE UPPER ANTICYCLONE CENTERED OVER THE
SRN PLAINS. MOSTLY SUNNY CONDITIONS WILL CONTINUE THIS
MORNING...ENOUGH TO ADEQUATELY DESTABILIZE. CONVECTIVE INITIATION
SHOULD TAKE PLACE OVER THE HIGHER TERRAIN DURING THE MIDDLE PART OF
THE DAY OR EARLY AFTERNOON. STORMS WOULD THEN SLOWLY DEVELOP AND
PROPAGATE EASTWARD THROUGH LATE DAY INTO THE PIEDMONT. COVERAGE IS
NOT EXPECTED TO BE ANYTHING MORE THAN SCATTERED. WHAT REMAINS TO BE
SEEN IS THE AFFECT OF ANY MCS REMNANTS. UPSTREAM MCS REMNANTS ARE
FARTHER AWAY AS COMPARED TO YESTERDAY...SO CONFIDENCE IS LOWER THAT
WE WILL SEE ANYTHING MORE THAN MID/HIGH DEBRIS CLOUDS IN THE MIDDLE
PART OF THE DAY THAT WILL HAVE A DAMPENING AFFECT ON OUR CONVECTIVE
CHANCES THIS AFTERNOON. WHAT SEEMS LIKE A MORE SIGNIFICANT
POSSIBILITY IS SOME SORT OF ORGANIZED CONVECTION MAKING A RUN AT THE
MTNS FROM THE NW LATE THIS EVENING AS THE 4KM WRF SHOWS. WILL HOLD
ONTO A CHANCE POP OVER THE MTNS AND FOOTHILLS FOR THE TONITE PERIOD
TO ACCOUNT FOR THIS POSSIBILITY. TEMPS WERE NUDGED TOWARD THE
SLIGHTLY COOLER MET GUIDANCE FOR HIGHS AND WARMER MAV GUIDANCE FOR
LOWS TONIGHT.

&&

.SHORT TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT/...
AS OF 235 AM MONDAY...TUESDAY LOOKS INTERESTING WITH A COLD FRONT
EXPECTED TO CROSS THE AREA. THE FRONT IS NOT WELL SUPPORTED
DYNAMICALLY...HOWEVER INSTABILITY SHOULD BE PRETTY DECENT AHEAD OF
IT. A COUPLE DISTINCT LLVL THETA/E RIDGES WILL CROSS AHEAD OF THE
FROPA WHICH COULD BE GOOD FOCUSING MECHANISMS FOR RATHER STRONG
CONVECTION. HOWEVER...WITH WEAK SHEAR AND ELEVATED DEL THETA
E/S...THE THREAT FOR DOWNBURSTING WINDS OR COLD POOL ORGANIZATION
SEEMS SMALL. ALSO...PARCEL ACCELERATION IN THE HAIL GROWTH REGION
WILL BE ON THE LOW END. YET...ANYTIME A FRONT CROSSES THE CWFA
DURING THE DAY THIS TIME OF YEAR WITH VERY GOOD INSOLATION
AHEAD...IS SOMETHING TO KEEP AN EYE ON. THE ONLY SIGNIF ADJUSTMENT
MADE TO THE FCST GRIDS WAS TO INCREASE POP LEVELS TUE AFTERNOON TO
INCLUDE A WIDER AREA OF LIKELYS ACROSS THE WRN ZONES. THE FRONT
SHOULD BE SOUTH OF THE FCST AREA BY 12Z WED AND A SUPPRESSING CA SFC
HIGH WILL BE BUILDING SOUTH ACROSS THE AREA. SO...DIMINISHING POPS
TO SLT ACROSS THE SRN AREAS SEEMS REASONABLE WED AFTERNOON. MAX
TEMPS WILL STILL BE A COUPLE CATS ABOVE NORMAL TUE AND PERHAPS ONLY
A COUPLE DEGREES ABOVE NORMAL WED AS SOME MEASURE OF AIRMASS MIXING
COMMENCES.

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
AT 1230 PM MON...UPPER RIDGE INITIALLY TO THE WEST OF THE AREA IS
FORECAST BY THE MEDIUM RANGE MODELS TO BUILD EASTWARD OVER THE
SOUTTHERN APPALACHIANS AND WESTERN CAROLINAS BY LATE IN THE WEEK.
HENCE...SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE IS EXPECTED TO DOMINATE THE WEATHER
THU NIGHT INTO SUNDAY. HENCE...THERE SHOULD BE A MINIMUM OF DIURNAL
CONVECTIVE ACTIVITY DURING THAT TIMEFRAME. LATE IN THE
PERIOD...UPPER RIDGE IS FORECAST TO RETROGRADE BACK INTO THE
SOUTHERN PLAINS AS AN UPPER TROUGH DEEPENS OVER THE NE U.S. THIS
WILL ALLOW A SURFACE COLD FRONT TO MAKE A RUN AT THE AREA WITH
CURRENT GUIDANCE SUGGESTING THAT IT WILL MOVE THROUGH THE AREA ON
MON. THE UPSHOT WILL BE AN INCREASING CHANCE OF DIURNAL CONVECTION
ON SUN AND MON. ABOVE AVERAGE TEMPS ARE EXPECTED THROUGH THE
PERIOD...PERHAPS AS MUCH AS 10 DEGREES HIGHER SAT AND SUN. STAYED
CLOSE TO HPC GUIDANCE FIELDS AS THEY CAPTURE THE TRENDS WELL.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
AT KCLT...HIGH BASED CU WILL SLOWLY INCREASE EARLY THIS AFTERNOON.
KEPT CB CLOUD IN THE TAF FOR LATE AFTERNOON AS CELLS MOVING OFF THE
MTNS MAY IMPACT THE APPROACH GATES. EXPECT SWLY WINDS TO CONTINUE
INTO EVENING THEN LIGHT SLY OVERNIGHT. MAY HAVE OVERDONE THE BKN
CLOUDS OVERNIGHT...BUT EXPECT QUITE A BIT OF CONVECTIVE DEBRIS.
LIGHT SSW WINDS PICK UP TUE MORN WITH DEBRIS CLOUDS REMAINING.
CONVECTION SHUD HOLD OFF UNTIL AFTER THE VALID TAF PERIOD.

ELSEWHERE...THE DAY SHOULD PLAY OUT SIMILAR TO KCLT EXCEPT CHANCE OF
CONVECTION IS HIGHER. CONVECTION OVER THE MTNS WILL MOVE INTO THE
FOOTHILLS THRU THE AFTERNOON. HAVE INCLUDED CB ALL LOCATIONS WITH
VCTS KAVL WHERE CHC HIGHEST. SW TO W WINDS CONTINUE INTO THE
EVENING...NW FOR KAVL. BEST CHC FOR FOG RESTRICTIONS WILL BE KAVL SO
HAVE INCLUDED MVFR THERE. CONVECTIVE DEBRIS CLOUDS CONTINUE INTO TUE
MORNING WITH SW TO W WINDS DEVELOPING...NW FOR KAVL. CONVECTION MAY
DEVELOP BEFORE THE END OF THE TAF PERIOD AT KAVL...BUT LEFT OUT FOR
NOW.

OUTLOOK...THERE IS A GOOD CHANCE OF AFTERNOON STORMS ON TUESDAY AS A
COLD FRONT CROSSES THE AREA. DRIER AIR AND VFR CONDITIONS EXPECTED
WEDNESDAY ONWARD.
