AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHARLESTON SC
117 PM EST THU FEB 23 2012

.SYNOPSIS...
ATLANTIC HIGH PRESSURE WILL GRADUALLY WEAKEN OVER THE AREA THROUGH
TONIGHT. A COLD FRONT WILL PUSH THROUGH THE REGION LATE FRIDAY
AFTERNOON OR EARLY FRIDAY EVENING...FOLLOWED BY HIGH PRESSURE FOR
THE FIRST HALF OF THE WEEKEND. A TROUGH OF LOW PRESSURE WILL
BECOME NEARLY STATIONARY NEAR THE COAST LATE IN THE WEEKEND INTO
EARLY NEXT WEEK. A WARM FRONT SHOULD LIFT NORTH OF THE AREA
TUESDAY NIGHT...WITH A COLD FRONT MOVING THROUGH DURING THE
MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
THE REGION WILL REMAIN BETWEEN HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE WESTERN
ATLANTIC AND A COLD FRONT MOVING INTO THE MID MISSISSIPPI VALLEY
THROUGH THE AFTERNOON. THE RESULTING STRONG AND DEEP
WEST/SOUTHWEST FLOW WILL MAINTAIN UNSEASONABLY WARM CONDITIONS
ACROSS THE ENTIRE SOUTHEAST UNITED STATES. ALTHOUGH PARTLY CLOUDY
SKIES WILL GENERALLY PREVAIL DUE TO THE FAIR WEATHER CUMULUS AND
CIRRUS ASSOCIATED WITH A STRONG UPPER JET...THE WARMING TREND IS
NOT EXPECTED TO BE AFFECTED. THUS TEMPERATURES WILL PEAK AT NEAR
RECORD LEVELS OF 80 TO 82 DEGREES AWAY FROM THE LOCALLY COOLER
COASTLINE. LOW LEVEL WIND FIELDS WILL BE UP TO 20 TO 30 KT...WITH
FAIRLY DEEP DAYTIME MIXING TAPPING INTO THESE HIGHER SPEEDS AND
SUPPORTING BREEZY CONDITIONS THROUGH THE AFTERNOON HOURS.

IT SHOULD BE NOTED THAT SEVERAL NUMERICAL MODEL SOLUTIONS ARE
INDICATING SHORTWAVE ENERGY CURRENTLY TO THE SOUTH LIFTING THROUGH
THE FORECAST AREA TODAY. THERE APPEARS TO BE A SUBTLE INCREASE IN
THE MOISTURE PROFILE AS RESULT...WITH A FEW MODELS EVEN HINTING AT
LIGHT PRECIPITATION ACROSS SOUTHEAST GEORGIA LATER THIS AFTERNOON.
MOISTURE IN THE MODEL SOUNDINGS ARE NOT IMPRESSIVE...AND GIVEN THE
SPOTTY AND INCONSISTENT REPRESENTATION OF ANY LIGHT SHOWER
ACTIVITY...PREFER TO KEEP POPS BELOW 15 PERCENT AT THIS POINT AND
JUST INDICATE AN INCREASE IN CLOUD COVER FROM THE SOUTH.

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH SUNDAY/...
THE NEXT SHORTWAVE IS PROGGED TO LIFT FROM THE CENTRAL GULF COAST
INTO GA LATE THIS EVENING...BRINGING AN INCREASE IN LOW-LEVEL
MOISTURE AND THUS CLOUD COVER. THERE MAY BE ISOLATED SHOWERS
ASSOCIATED WITH THE VORT MAX BUT WE HAVE KEPT CONDITIONS DRY
THROUGH EARLY FRIDAY MORNING. THERE WILL BE A BETTER SHOT AT A FEW
SHOWERS PRIOR TO DAYBREAK FRIDAY AS PRECIPITATION ASSOCIATED WITH
THE COLD FRONT DRIFTS IN FROM THE WEST. A STRONG PRESSURE GRADIENT
AND LOW-LEVEL JETTING WILL KEEP WINDS UP OVERNIGHT AND TEMPS WILL
THEREFORE NOT DROP BELOW THE LOWER 60S.

FRIDAY AND FRIDAY NIGHT...MODEL SOLUTIONS CONTINUE TO DIFFER ON
FRONTAL TIMING AND PROGRESSION THROUGH THE AREA...BUT DIFFERENCES
ARE BECOMING SOMEWHAT LESS SIGNIFICANT. THE GFS REMAINS THE MOST
PROGRESSIVE BRINGING THE COLD FRONT THROUGH DURING THE EARLY
AFTERNOON...WHILE THE ECMWF LAGS ALL OF THE OTHER GUIDANCE WITH
FRONTAL PASSAGE IN THE EVENING. A CONSENSUS FORECAST SEEMS TO BE THE
BEST APPROACH...WITH THE FRONT EXPECTED TO MOVE THROUGH DURING THE
LATE AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING HOURS. FORCING FROM THE RIGHT REAR
QUADRANT OF A 140 KT UPPER LEVEL JET...COMBINED WITH DEEP MOISTURE
IN PLACE AHEAD OF THE FRONT AND LOW LEVEL CONVERGENCE ALONG THE
FRONT ITSELF WILL SUPPORT RAINFALL PROBABILITIES IN THE LIKELY
CATEGORY FOR ALL INLAND ZONES AND HIGH CHANCE FARTHER EAST FOR ALL
COASTAL ZONES...PRIMARILY IN THE AFTERNOON. STRONG LOW LEVEL
JETTING...LINGERING MID LEVEL MOISTURE AND A SECONDARY SHORT WAVE
COULD RESULT IN SOME POST-FRONTAL SHOWERS...SO THE FORECAST WILL
MAINTAIN EITHER A LOW CHANCE OR SLIGHT CHANCE OF SHOWERS INTO THE
EVENING HOURS.

THE BIGGEST ISSUE FOR FRIDAY IS THE POTENTIAL FOR SEVERE WEATHER.
THE MOST CONCERNING FACTOR IS THE STRONG LOW LEVEL JET THAT WILL BE
IN PLACE AHEAD OF THE COLD FRONT...WITH 850MB WINDS POSSIBLY AS
STRONG AS 50-55 KT OVER PARTS OF THE AREA ACCORDING TO SOME OF THE
LATEST GUIDANCE. IN ADDITION...STRONG MOISTURE ADVECTION WITH A DEEP
SOUTHWEST FLOW IN PLACE WILL ALLOW DEWPOINT VALUES TO RISE INTO THE
LOWER TO MID 60S ACROSS THE AREA. A FRONTAL PASSAGE LATER IN THE DAY
WILL ALSO ALLOW GREATER DESTABILIZATION TO OCCUR. DESPITE THESE
FAVORABLE CONDITIONS...THIS IS BY NO MEANS A LIKELY SEVERE WEATHER
EVENT. PERHAPS THE GREATEST LIMITING FACTOR CONTINUES TO BE THE
POTENTIAL FOR EXTENSIVE CLOUD COVER OVER THE AREA AHEAD OF THE COLD
FRONT WHICH COULD LIMIT THE AVAILABLE INSTABILITY. ALSO...MID LEVEL
LAPSE RATES REMAIN RATHER POOR. HAVING SAID ALL OF THIS...AT THE
VERY LEAST ISOLATED SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS CANNOT BE RULED OUT...WITH
DAMAGING WIND GUSTS THE PRIMARY THREAT. WILL THEREFORE KEEP MENTION
IN THE HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK. EVEN IF SEVERE WEATHER DOES NOT
OCCUR...DEEP MIXING WILL RESULT IN STRONG WIND GUSTS UPWARDS OF
30-35 MPH AT TIMES DURING THE DAY.

LOW LEVEL THICKNESS VALUES SUPPORT HIGH TEMPERATURES UP AROUND 80
DEGREES...BUT FACTORING IN THE POTENTIAL FOR SIGNIFICANT CLOUD COVER
THE FORECAST WILL SHOW HIGHS GENERALLY IN THE MID 70S...EXCEPT LOWER
70S WELL INLAND AND EVEN COOLER ALONG THE IMMEDIATE COAST. THIS IS
STILL AT LEAST A COUPLE OF DEGREES ABOVE THE WARMEST MOS GUIDANCE IN
EASTERN PARTS OF THE FORECAST AREA.

SATURDAY AND SATURDAY NIGHT...HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD INTO THE
REGION FROM THE WEST BEHIND THE DEPARTING COLD FRONT ON
SATURDAY...THEN BEGIN TO PASS NORTH OF THE AREA SATURDAY NIGHT. THIS
WILL LEAD TO MUCH COOLER YET DRY WEATHER ACROSS THE AREA. BASED ON
LOW LEVEL THICKNESS VALUES...HIGHS WILL STRUGGLE TO REACH AROUND 60
DEGREES IN MOST PLACES. LOWS SATURDAY NIGHT COULD REACH NEAR
FREEZING WELL INLAND AND THE MID TO UPPER 30S CLOSER TO THE COAST.

SUNDAY...AS SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE SHIFTS TO THE SOUTHERN
MID-ATLANTIC COAST...A WEAK TROUGH WILL BEGIN TO TAKE SHAPE ALONG
THE SOUTHEAST COAST. MOISTURE RETURN WILL BE RATHER SIGNIFICANT
DURING THE DAY. IN ADDITION...ISENTROPIC ASCENT RAMPS UP AND A
RATHER STRONG SHORT WAVE WILL APPROACH FROM THE WEST. ALL OF THESE
FACTORS WILL SUPPORT AT LEAST A LOW CHANCE OF SHOWERS ACROSS MUCH OF
SOUTHEAST GEORGIA AND FAR SOUTHERN COASTAL SOUTH CAROLINA...WITH A
SLIGHT CHANCE ELSEWHERE EXCEPT DRY IN THE FAR NORTHWEST PART OF THE
FORECAST AREA. BASED ON LOW LEVEL THICKNESS VALUES AND INCREASED
CLOUD COVER OVER THE AREA...HIGHS SHOULD ONLY BE IN THE UPPER 50S TO
NEAR 60.

&&

.LONG TERM /SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
MEDIUM RANGE GUIDANCE IS IN REASONABLY GOOD AGREEMENT THROUGH MUCH
OF THE LONG TERM PERIOD. HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE WESTERN ATLANTIC
WILL MAINTAIN A QUASI-STATIONARY TROUGH SOMEWHERE NEAR THE
COAST...WITH WEAK WEDGING INLAND THROUGH AT LEAST MONDAY NIGHT.
THERE IS SOME INDICATION THAT A WARM FRONT MAY TRY TO LIFT NORTHWARD
TUESDAY AND/OR TUESDAY NIGHT...FOLLOWED BY THE PASSAGE OF A COLD
FRONT FROM THE WEST DURING THE MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK.

AS FAR AS FORECAST DETAILS ARE CONCERNED...THE UNSETTLED CONDITIONS
WILL WARRANT A MENTION OF AT LEAST A SLIGHT CHANCE OR A CHANCE OF
SHOWERS IN THE FORECAST THROUGH WEDNESDAY. TEMPERATURES WILL
INCREASE EACH DAY AHEAD OF THE MID WEEK COLD FRONT...BECOMING WELL
ABOVE NORMAL BY WEDNESDAY.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
VFR CONDITIONS WILL PREVAIL THROUGH THE EVENING HOURS...WHILE
DEEP MIXING INTO A 35 TO 40 KT LOW LEVEL JET SUPPORTS BREEZY
SOUTH/SOUTHWEST WINDS AND GUSTS UP TO 25 KT. MODEL FORECAST
SOUNDINGS AND GUIDANCE ALL SUGGEST THAT LOW LEVEL MOISTURE WILL
INCREASE AFTER MIDNIGHT AND SUPPORT MVFR OR LOWER CEILINGS AT BOTH
TERMINALS. HAVE MAINTAINED MENTION OF MVFR BEGINNING AROUND 04Z TO
05Z AT KCHS AND KSAV...WHILE ALSO INTRODUCING A TEMPO GROUP TO
COVER PERIODS OF IFR DURING THE EARLY MORNING HOURS ON FRIDAY.
MVFR CEILINGS COULD PERSIST INTO AT LEAST THE MID TO LATE MORNING
HOURS ON FRIDAY AHEAD OF A COLD FRONT APPROACHING FROM THE WEST.

THE LOW LEVEL JET WILL INTENSIFY TO 45 TO 50 KT OVERNIGHT.
ALTHOUGH SURFACE FLOW WILL REMAIN 10 TO 15 KT WITH HIGHER
GUSTS...ESPECIALLY AT KCHS...SUCH A SIGNIFICANT LOW LEVEL JET
SHOULD STILL SUPPORT WIND SHEAR AT BOTH TAF SITES INTO THE EARLY
MORNING HOURS. WILL INCLUDE LOW LEVEL WIND SHEAR AFTER ABOUT
MIDNIGHT AT BOTH TERMINALS.

EXTENDED AVIATION OUTLOOK...MVFR CONDITIONS WILL BE POSSIBLE
AGAIN FRIDAY AFTERNOON/EVENING IN SCATTERED SHOWERS AND ISOLATED
THUNDERSTORMS AS A COLD FRONT MOVES THROUGH THE AREA. GUSTY WINDS
EXPECTED FRIDAY...MAINLY DURING THE LATE MORNING THROUGH AFTERNOON
HOURS.

&&

.MARINE...
DECENT SOUTHWEST FLOW WILL CONTINUE THROUGH THE AFTERNOON WITH
SOME GUSTS TO 20 KT...ESPECIALLY NEAR THE COAST. ANOTHER POTENT
LOW-LEVEL JET WILL DEVELOP TONIGHT AHEAD OF THE NEXT
SHORTWAVE...SUPPORTING ANOTHER SURGE OF GUSTY CONDITIONS AND
BUILDING SEAS. WILL LIKELY NEED ANOTHER ROUND OF SMALL CRAFT
ADVISORIES FOR TONIGHT...BUT SINCE A LULL IN CONDITIONS ARE
EXPECTED THIS AFTERNOON...WILL WAIT TO ISSUE NEW ADVISORIES WITH
THE AFTERNOON FORECAST PACKAGE.

FRIDAY THROUGH TUESDAY...SOUTH-SOUTHWEST WINDS WILL INCREASE OVER
THE WATERS THROUGH FRIDAY IN ADVANCE OF AN APPROACHING COLD FRONT.
SMALL CRAFT ADVISORIES MAY BE REQUIRED FOR MOST...IF NOT ALL
WATERS...FRIDAY THEN CONTINUING FOR ALL COASTAL WATERS INTO FRIDAY
NIGHT OR SATURDAY MORNING IN THE STRONG COLD AIR ADVECTION REGIME
BEHIND THE FRONT. IMPROVING CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED SATURDAY NIGHT
THROUGH TUESDAY WITH WINDS AND SEAS REMAINING BELOW ADVISORY LEVELS.

THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR ATLANTIC COASTAL
WATERS...SOUTHEAST GEORGIA AND SOUTHEAST SOUTH CAROLINA.

.DAY ONE...TODAY AND TONIGHT.

NO HAZARDOUS WEATHER IS EXPECTED AT THIS TIME.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY.

SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS...SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS WILL DEVELOP ACROSS THE AREA ON FRIDAY AHEAD OF A
COLD FRONT APPROACHING FROM THE WEST. GIVEN AN UNSEASONABLY WARM
AND MOIST AIRMASS AND STRENGTHENING WINDS AHEAD OF THE FRONT...THERE IS A
SLIGHT CHANCE THAT SOME OF THE THUNDERSTORMS COULD BECOME
SEVERE IN THE AFTERNOON AND BE CAPABLE OF PRODUCING DAMAGING WIND
GUSTS. HOWEVER...RATHER EXTENSIVE CLOUD COVER COULD LIMIT
INSTABILITY AND LESSEN THE OVERALL THREAT FOR SEVERE WEATHER.

NEWS SOURCE FOR THE LATEST WEATHER INFORMATION FROM THE NATIONAL
WEATHER SERVICE.
