AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GREENVILLE-SPARTANBURG SC
753 PM EDT MON SEP 5 2011

.SYNOPSIS...
A STATIONARY FRONT WILL REMAIN ACROSS OUR AREA TONIGHT AS THE
REMNANT TROPICAL LOW TRACKS NORTHEAST SPREADING DEEP MOISTURE OVER
THE CAROLINAS THROUGH TUESDAY.  THE LOW WILL MOVE OUT OF THE AREA
LATER IN THE WEEK AS IT CONTINUES TO WEAKEN.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TUESDAY/...
HEAVY RAIN STILL LIKELY OVER PORTIONS OF THE MTNS AND ADJACENT
FOOTHILLS. SVR WX BECOMING THE MAIN THREAT OUTSIDE OF THE MTNS. COLD
FRONT REMAINS STALLED NEAR THE SPINE OF THE APPALACHIANS TONIGHT
WHILE THE REMNANT LOW FROM LEE MOVES NORTHEAST ALONG THE FRONT. MDLS
CONTINUE TO SHOW THE BEST FRONTOGENETICAL AND DEFORMATION ZONE
FORCING REMAINING WEST OF THE SPINE. THAT SAID...PW VALUES ACROSS THE
AREA ARE 2 STANDARD DEVIATIONS ABOVE NORMAL WHILE SLY LOW LEVEL
WINDS IN THE 30 KT RANGE WILL CONTINUE THRU THE NITE.
THEREFORE...THE MOST LIKELY LOCATIONS TO SEE WIDESPREAD HEAVY
RAINFALL WILL BE IN THE PRIME UPSLOPE AREAS ALONG THE BLUE RIDGE AND
NEAR THE TN BORDER CLOSER TO THE BETTER SYNOPTIC FORCING. THE HEAVY
RAIN OUTSIDE OF THOSE AREAS WILL LIKELY BE MORE ISOLATED AND
CONFINED TO LOCATIONS THAT SEE REPEATED CONVECTION AND/OR OVER MORE
URBAN ARES. WILL LEAVE THE FLOOD WATCHES AS IS...BUT INDICATE THE
NEW THINKING IN THE WORDING. WHILE THE FLOOD THREAT HAS
DIMINISHED...THE SEVERE CHANCES HAVE INCREASED. HEATING OUTSIDE OF
THE MTNS HAS LEAD TO MODERATE INSTABILITY ALONG AND SOUTH OF I-85.
BULK SHEAR AND HELICITY VALUES REMAIN QUITE HEIGHT. THIS COMBINED
WITH LOW LCL HEIGHTS WILL LEAD TO A SIGNIFICANT TORNADO THREAT
THROUGH THE EVENING AND POSSIBLY OVERNIGHT.

COLD FRONT BEGINS TO MOVE TUESDAY AS THE LOW MOVES ALONG THE FRONT
AND INTO OUR AREA. DRY SLOT MOVES IN BEHIND THE FRONT HELPING TO END
HEAVY PRECIP FROM WEST TO EAST ACROSS THE AREA OUTSIDE OF THE MTNS
DURING THE MORNING. HEAVY RAIN COULD LINGER ACROSS THE MTNS...AT
LEAST THRU THE MORNING. STRONG SLY LOW LEVEL FLOW AND MODERATE
INSTABILITY WILL CONTINUE AHEAD OF THE FRONT. THEREFORE...LOCATIONS
AHEAD OF THE FRONT WILL RETAIN A TORNADO THREAT UNTIL THE FRONT
MOVES EAST OF THE AREA DURING THE LATE AFTERNOON. EXPECT THE HEAVY
RAIN THREAT AND PRECIP TO DIMINISH ACROSS THE MTNS DURING THE
AFTERNOON WITH THE SVR THREAT DIMINISHING AS WELL.

&&

.SHORT TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY/...
AS OF 230 PM MONDAY...12Z GFS AND NAM IN GOOD AGREEMENT THAT REMNANT
LOW FROM ONCE TS LEE WILL BE OVER THE WESTERN CAROLINAS AT 00Z WED
WITH A CONVERGENCE ZONE EAST OF THE CENTER. EXPECT THAT A CONVECTIVE
LINE OF STORMS ASSOCIATED WITH THE CONVERGENCE AREA WILL BE JUST
EAST OF THE FORECAST AREA AT THE BEGINNING OF THE PERIOD WITH THE
AREA EAST OF THE MOUNTAINS DRY SLOTTED. HENCE EXPECT ONLY SOME
SCATTERED SHOWERS OVER THE MOUNTAINS AS THE SURFACE LOW MOVES SLOWLY
NE TUE NIGHT. THE UPPER LOW WEST OF THE MOUNTAINS IS EXPECTED TO
MOVE ONLY VERY SLOWLY NORTHWARD INTO THE LOWER OHIO VALLEY BY THU.
LOOKS LIKE A PERSISTENT DOWNSLOPE FLOW AND A DRYING AIRMASS WILL
PRECLUDE ANY SHOWERS OUTSIDE OF THE MOUNTAINS BOTH WED AND THU.
ENOUGH MOISTURE SHOULD REMAIN OVER THE MOUNTAINS FOR WIDELY
SCATTERED TO SCATTERED SHOWERS THROUGH THE PERIOD. THE SHOWERS WILL BE
DIURNALLY ENHANCED EACH AFTERNOON...AND UPSLOPE AREAS COULD SEE A
SHOWER ANY TIME. CONSIDERABLE CLOUDINESS ON WED WILL TEMPER MAX
TEMPS AND KEEP THEM BELOW AVERAGE...BUT WITH INCREASING SUNSHINE ON
THU EXPECT MAX TEMPS SHOULD TOP OUT NEAR AVERAGE VALUES.

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY/...
AS OF 1 PM MONDAY...THE EXTENDED PORTION OF THE FORECAST LEANED
HEAVILY ON THE HPC/ECMWF FORECAST. THE REMNANT UPPER LOW PREVIOUSLY
ASSOCIATED WITH TS LEE IS FORECAST TO CONTINUE TO MEANDER ACROSS THE
TN VALLEY THROUGH THE END OF THE WEEK AND THEN GRADUALLY MOVE
EASTWARD AND SLOWLY FILL ACROSS THE SOUTHERN APPALACHIANS THE FIRST
OF NEXT WEEK. PERSISTENT...BUT GENERALLY WEAK DOWNSLOPE FLOW EAST OF
THE MOUNTAINS THROUGH SUNDAY...AND A MID LEVEL INVERSION SUGGESTS
GENERALLY DRY WEATHER IN THE PIEDMONT AREAS WITH ENHANCED CU FIELDS
DURING THE AFTERNOON HOURS. IN THE MOUNTAINS...SUFFICIENT MOISTURE
AND LAPSE RATES SHOULD EXIST FOR SOME LOW TOPPED SHOWERS TO DEVELOP
DIURNALLY EACH AFTERNOON. ON MONDAY...WITH THE UPPER TROUGH MOVING
EASTWARD ACROSS THE AREA...SCATTERED AFTERNOON SHOWERS POSSIBLE ALL
AREAS. TEMPERATURES THROUGH THE PERIOD WILL AVERAGE ABOUT A CATEGORY
BELOW SEASONAL NORMS.

&&

.AVIATION /00Z TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
AT KCLT AND ELSEWHERE...A LINE OF THUNDERSTORMS WILL STRONG WINDS
SHOULD AFFECT KCLT SHORTLY. ONCE THE LINE MOVES THROUGH...OCCASIONAL
LIGHT TO MODERATE SHRA ARE EXPECTED MUCH OF THE REST OF THE
NIGHT...WITH SIMILAR CONDITIONS ACROSS THE REST OF THE REGION.
CIGS NEVER DID FALL TO IFR LAST NIGHT...BUT WITH MORE MOISTURE IN
THE LOW LEVELS OF THE ATMOSPHERE...AND WITH RAIN THAT FELL ACROSS
THE REGION THE PAST 24 HOURS...MOST SITES SHOULD FINALLY SEE IFR
CIGS DEVELOP AROUND MIDNIGHT. LOW CIGS WILL PROBABLY MOVE IN A CPL
HOURS LATER AT KCLT...THOUGH THIS IS A VERY UNCERTAIN CIG FORECAST.

OUTLOOK...CONDITIONS SHOULD IMPROVE DURING THE AFTERNOON AS DRY SLOT
WORKS IN FROM THE WEST...HOWEVER CLOUDS COULD LINGER OVER THE MTNS.
THE FORECAST FOR MID-WEEK IS VERY UNCERTAIN DUE TO LOW CONFIDENCE IN
THE EVENTUAL PROGRESSION OF A REMNANT LOW.
