AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHARLESTON SC
206 PM EDT WED JUL 11 2012

.SYNOPSIS...
A FRONT WILL REMAIN DRAPED ACROSS THE CENTRAL CAROLINAS THROUGH
FRIDAY BEFORE LIFTING NORTH AS ATLANTIC HIGH PRESSURE EXTENDS
ACROSS THE SOUTHEAST STATES THROUGH EARLY NEXT WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
HAVE MADE SOME MINOR TWEAKS TO INCREASE POPS OVER THE COASTAL
AREAS AS THE SEA BREEZE STARTED TO MOVE INLAND. OTHERWISE...NO
SIGNIFICANT CHANGES WERE MADE FOR THIS UPDATE.

A BROAD UPPER TROUGH REMAINS TO THE WEST...A BERMUDA HIGH PRESSURE
TO THE EAST...AND A SURFACE FRONT STALLED ACROSS CENTRAL NC/SC.
850-700 MB FLOW IS PROGGED TO BACK TO SOUTHWEST THIS
MORNING...INCREASING LOW-LEVEL MOISTURE A TAD WITH PW VALUES
RISING ABOVE 2 INCHES IN SPOTS. CLOUD COVER HAS INCREASED OVER THE
COASTAL AREAS AS THUNDERSTORMS HAVE FORMED ALONG THE SEA BREEZE. A
CU FIELD HAS ALSO ENVELOPED THE REMAINING CWA AREA.

THUNDERSTORMS HAVE BEGUN ALONG THE COAST AND WILL CONTINUE TO FORM
AS THE SEA BREEZE MOVES INLAND AND OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES COLLIDE WITH
EACH OTHER.THE SEABREEZE WILL HAVE VERY LITTLE INHIBITION AND
SHOULD MOVE INLAND FAIRLY QUICKLY...ESPECIALLY COMPARED TO THE
LAST FEW DAYS. THE MODIFIED CHS AND JAX MORNING SOUNDINGS YIELDED
IMPRESSIVE RESULTS. BOTH HAVE SURFACE CAPES NEAR 3500 JOULES WITH
HIGH TEMPS NEAR 90. HOWEVER...THE LOW LEVEL SHEAR IS RATHER WEAK
WITH 15 TO 20 KNOTS AND MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES NEAR -5. THE
ENVIRONMENT IS CONDUCIVE FOR SCATTERED TO ISOLATED MULTICELL
THUNDERSTORMS WITH WIND BEING THE MAIN THREAT.

WE HAVE LIKELY POPS THIS AFTERNOON FAR INLAND WITH DECREASING
VALUES CLOSER TO THE COAST. WE EXPECT THE BEACHES TO STAY DRY
UNTIL MID TO LATE AFTERNOON WHEN SOME UPSTREAM CONVECTION COULD
DRIFT BACK OUT. ALTHOUGH THE NAM IS THE ONLY MODEL TO SHOW A WEAK
SHORTWAVE MOVING INTO SOUTHERN SC LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND EARLY
EVENING...WE DID MAINTAIN SOME POPS INTO THE OVERNIGHT HOURS IN
THIS AREA TO ACCOUNT FOR LINGERING ACTIVITY.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH SATURDAY/...
ATLANTIC HIGH PRESSURE IS EXPECTED TO DOMINATE THE PATTERN THROUGH
THE COMING WEEKEND. THE AXIS OF THE DEEP LAYER RIDGE WILL SIT
GENERALLY NORTH OF THE REGION...PROVIDING DEEP ESE FLOW...WHICH IS
PRETTY TYPICAL FOR THIS TIME OF YEAR. THE WEAK...QUASI-STATIONARY
SURFACE FRONT THAT WAS OVER THE NORTHERN AREA...WILL BEGIN SHIFT
FARTHER NORTHWARD ON THURSDAY....THEN DISSIPATE BY FRIDAY.

THURSDAY...PRECIP CHANCES WILL BE THE HIGHEST FOR THIS PERIOD.
EXPECT AFTERNOON CONVECTION TO DEVELOP MAINLY WELL INLAND ACROSS THE
SC UPSTATE REGION...CLOSER TO THE WEAKENING FRONT. THE DEEP LAYER
STEERING FLOW WILL BE WEAK ENOUGH TO POTENTIALLY ALLOW OUTFLOW
BOUNDARIES TO MOVE BACK ESE TOWARD THE INLAND AREA. THESE OUTFLOW
BOUNDARIES COULD COLLIDE WITH THE AFTERNOON SEA BREEZE TO HELP
TRIGGER SCATTERED CONVECTION...MAINLY INLAND. HAVE KEPT NEAR 50%
POPS INLAND...TAPERING DOWN TO SLIGHT CHANCE NEAR THE COAST. GIVEN
THE WEAK FLOW AND CONVECTION MAINLY FORCED BY MESOSCALE BOUNDARY
COLLISIONS...THINK CHANCES FOR ANY WIDESPREAD STRONG TO SEVERE
STORMS WILL BE LOW. HOWEVER...MODEL SOUNDINGS INDICATING AFTERNOON
CAPES OF 2000-2500 J/KG...WHICH MAY HELP TO PRODUCE SOME STRONG
STORMS WHERE BOUNDARIES COLLIDE. HIGH TEMPS EXPECTED TO BE NEAR
NORMAL. CONVECTION SHOULD GENERALLY DIE DOWN DURING THE EVENING WITH
THE LOSS OF HEATING...BUT KEPT SLIGHT CHANCE ALL NIGHT DUE TO
RELATIVELY MOIST/UNSTABLE AIRMASS WITH THE POTENTIAL PRESENCE OF
LINGERING BOUNDARIES.

FRIDAY AND SATURDAY...ATLANTIC HIGH PRESSURE BECOMES MORE FIRMLY
ESTABLISHED PROVIDING MORE TYPICAL ESE FLOW. EXPECT CONVECTION TO BE
CENTERED MAINLY AROUND THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING...DURING MAXIMUM
HEATING. FEEL GUIDANCE POPS ARE A LITTLE LOW...AND HAVE GONE WITH
LOW END CHANCE...MAINLY INLAND FOR FRIDAY. WENT A TAD LOWER FOR POPS
FOR SATURDAY AS THE UPPER LEVEL RIDGE STRENGTHENS SLIGHTLY...WHICH
SHOULD HELP TO PRODUCE WARMER/MORE STABLE MID LEVEL CONDITIONS.
TEMPS EXPECTED TO BE NEAR NORMAL FOR THIS PERIOD.

&&

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY/...
A DEEP LAYER OF ATLANTIC HIGH PRESSURE IS EXPECTED TO REMAIN
CENTERED JUST NORTH OF THE REGION THROUGH AT LEAST MONDAY WITH DEEP
ESE FLOW. MODELS INDICATING RATHER MARGINAL DEEP LAYER MOISTURE WITH
MEAN RH VALUES BELOW 60% THROUGH MONDAY. THUS...HAVE KEPT SLIGHT
CHANCE POPS...ESPECIALLY AWAY FROM THE COAST EACH AFTERNOON.
TEMPERATURES WILL BE NEAR TO SLIGHTLY ABOVE NORMAL. BY TUESDAY AND
WEDNESDAY...GLOBAL MODELS BEGIN TO DIVERGE ON THE LARGE SCALE. THE
CONSENSUS OF THE SOLUTIONS SEEMS TO POINT TOWARD A MID AND UPPER
LEVEL TROUGH TO DEVELOP OVER THE MID ATLANTIC... STRETCHING SOUTHWARD
INTO INTERIOR SC AND GA. IF THIS OCCURS...THE MEAN LOW LEVEL FLOW
SHOULD TURN MORE SOUTHERLY AND PRECIP CHANCES SHOULD INCREASE. FOR
NOW...HAVE GONE WITH SLIGHT CHANCE POPS. HOWEVER...IF THE MODELS
CONTINUE TO TREND TOWARD A LARGE SCALE TROUGH OVER THE INTERIOR...
POPS WILL NEED TO BE RAISED. TEMPERATURES ARE EXPECTED TO REMAIN
NEAR NORMAL.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
VFR EXPECTED FOR THE FORECAST PERIOD WITH THE EXCEPTION OF
THUNDERSTORMS. CONVECTION HAS BEGUN ALREADY WITH THE SEA BREEZE
FRONT MOVING INLAND. WITH LITTLE RESISTANCE...THE FRONT SHOULD MOVE
INLAND RATHER QUICKLY AND THE WINDS WILL REMAIN OUT OF THE SOUTH
SOUTHEAST.

EXTENDED AVIATION OUTLOOK...THERE WILL BE A SMALL CHANCE FOR
MVFR/IFR CONDITIONS IN MAINLY AFTERNOON/EVENING SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS
THURSDAY AND FRIDAY. HOWEVER...DECREASING CHANCES FOR CONVECTION
OVER THE WEEKEND WITH VFR EXPECTED TO PREVAIL.

&&

.MARINE...
NO HIGHLIGHTS ARE EXPECTED THROUGH THE PERIOD. A DEEP LAYER...
ATLANTIC HIGH PRESSURE SYSTEM IS EXPECTED TO BE CENTERED NORTH OF
THE REGION THROUGH THE PERIOD. THIS WILL RESULT IN ESE WINDS OF
GENERALLY 15 KTS OR LESS AND SEAS 3 TO 4 FEET OR LESS. WINDS COULD
BECOME A LITTLE STRONGER EACH AFTERNOON NEAR THE COAST WITH THE
SEA BREEZE...BUT ARE EXPECTED TO REMAIN BELOW ADVISORY LEVELS.
GENERALLY LATE NIGHT AND MORNING ISOLATED TO SCATTERED SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS WILL PREVAIL.

&&

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