AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHARLESTON SC
112 PM EST TUE JAN 10 2012

.SYNOPSIS...
A BACKDOOR COLD FRONT IS EXPECTED TO SAG SOUTH INTO CENTRAL SOUTH
CAROLINA BY THIS EVENING THEN SLOWLY DISSIPATE THROUGH EARLY WEDNESDAY.
A COLD FRONT WILL PUSH THROUGH THE REGION LATE WEDNESDAY...FOLLOWED
BY A STRONGER RE-ENFORCING COLD FRONT THURSDAY NIGHT. HIGH PRESSURE
WILL THEN BUILD BACK INTO THE AREA FRIDAY THROUGH EARLY NEXT WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
A NEARLY STATIONARY FRONTAL BOUNDARY IS EVIDENT IN VISIBLE
SATELLITE IMAGERY AND SURFACE OBSERVATIONS STRETCHING FROM
NORTHERN GEORGIA EASTWARD THROUGH CENTRAL/SOUTHERN SOUTH CAROLINA
AND INTO THE WESTERN ATLANTIC. LOW STRATUS HAS SLIPPED INTO FAR
NORTHERN PORTIONS OF BERKELEY AND CHARLESTON COUNTIES EARLY THIS
AFTERNOON...WITH THE REST OF THE FORECAST AREA REMAINING SOLIDLY
IN THE WARM SECTOR. MAIN NEAR TERM CONCERNS FOR TODAY CONTINUE TO
REVOLVE AROUND RAIN CHANCES AND TEMPERATURES.

THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY IS EXPECTED TO CONTINUE TO PUSH SLOWLY
SOUTHWARD THROUGH THE TRI-COUNTY REGION PRIOR TO GETTING
INTERMINGLED WITH THE SEA BREEZE LATE THIS AFTERNOON. AT THE SAME
TIME...ISENTROPIC ASCENT WILL BE INCREASING ACROSS THE REMAINDER
OF THE FORECAST AREA IN ADVANCE OF POTENT UPPER LEVEL SYSTEM. AS A
RESULT...WE EXPECT CLOUD COVER TO INCREASE WITH MOSTLY
CLOUDY OR CLOUDY SKIES THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE DAY. RADAR
IMAGERY SHOWS SOME RADAR RETURNS APPROACHING THE FORECAST AREA
FROM THE SOUTHWEST...BUT THE RETURNS HAVE BEEN WEAKENING AS THEY
MOVE CLOSER TO THE RADAR SITE. THIS ISN/T SURPRISING GIVEN SURFACE
OBSERVATIONS SHOWING CEILINGS AT OR ABOVE 10 KFT...SO WOULD EXPECT
THAT MOST OF THE PRECIPITATION THAT IS FALLING IS EVAPORATING
PRIOR TO REACHING THE SURFACE. WITH ISENTROPIC ASCENT AND DEEP
MOISTURE INCREASING ACROSS THE REGION THIS AFTERNOON ALONG WITH
SOME WEAK UPPER LEVEL FORCING FOR ASCENT OVERSPREADING THE
AREA...WILL CONTINUE TO CARRY SLIGHT CHANCE/CHANCE POPS ACROSS
PRIMARILY INTERIOR ZONES. WILL ALSO CARRY SLIGHT CHANCE POPS
ACROSS FAR NORTHERN ZONES WHERE AN ISOLATED SHOWER OR TWO MAY POP
UP ALONG THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY.

AS FOR TEMPERATURES...HIGHS WILL TOP OUT IN THE LOW TO MID 70S
MOST LOCALES...WITH COOLER TEMPERATURES ACROSS FAR INTERIOR
SOUTHEAST GEORGIA ZONES...FAR NORTHERN SOUTHERN SOUTH CAROLINA
ZONES...AND ALONG THE IMMEDIATE COAST. UPDATE WILL BE SENT BY 2
PM.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH FRIDAY/...
DEEP LAYERED WIND FIELDS WILL BE PICKING UP LATE TONIGHT AS THE
SYSTEM ACROSS TEXAS MOVES OVER THE GULF COAST STATES. THE STALLED
BACKDOOR FRONT ACROSS SOUTH CAROLINA WILL BE SLOW TO MOVE ANYWHERE
DESPITE THE BACKING FLOW ALOFT AS THE COOLER AIR TO THE N WILL BE
QUITE SHALLOW AND THE BOUNDARY LAYER QUITE STABLE. LOW-TOPPED
CONVECTIVE RAINS WILL INCREASE FROM W TO E AFTER MIDNIGHT AS A
STRONG SHORT WAVE OVER THE GULF OF MEXICO ACCELERATES THE CUT-OFF
SYSTEM EASTWARD. MODELS DO NOT INDICATE ANY REAL RISK FOR TSTMS
TONIGHT AS A WEAK CAPE RIDGE IS STILL TO THE W AT 12Z. TEMPS
SHOULD REMAIN QUITE STEADY MID 50S MOST AREAS TONIGHT. THERE COULD
BE A CHANCE FOR SOME FOG DEVELOPMENT IN THE EVENING HOURS ACROSS
SOUTH CAROLINA...LIFTING TO STRATUS AFTER MIDNIGHT. CONFIDENCE TOO
LOW TO WORK INTO THE FORECAST AT THIS TIME.

A VERTICALLY STACKED LOW SYSTEM WILL STEADILY TRACK NORTHEAST
INTO THE TENNESSEE AND OHIO VALLEYS ON WEDNESDAY. THE LINGERING
WEST-EAST ORIENTED BOUNDARY WILL EITHER DISSIPATE AHEAD OF THE
APPROACHING COLD FRONT OR TRANSITION INTO A WARM FRONTAL FEATURE
EARLY IN THE DAY. THE AXIS OF A TRANSIENT UPPER RIDGE DOWNSTREAM
OF THE CLOSED LOW WILL QUICKLY SHIFT OFF THE COAST...ALLOWING DEEP
MOISTURE TO OVERSPREAD THE SOUTHEAST AND MID ATLANTIC STATES BY
THE AFTERNOON HOURS. ALTHOUGH THERE IS A SUBTLE HINT IN NAM AND
GFS SOLUTIONS OF A DRY SLOT OPENING OVER COASTAL GEORGIA DURING
THE EARLY MORNING HOURS...MODEL CONSENSUS IS IN GOOD AGREEMENT
INDICATING ABUNDANT RAINFALL ACROSS MUCH OF THE FORECAST AREA BY
THE LATE MORNING AND EARLY AFTERNOON.

WILL CONTINUE TO ADVERTISE POPS AS HIGH AS 60 TO 70 PERCENT ON
WEDNESDAY...WITH HIGHEST CONFIDENCE OVER THE NORTHERN AREAS
CLOSEST TO THE WARM FRONTAL FEATURE AND THE CENTER OF THE UPPER
LEVEL SYSTEM. SURFACE BASED INSTABILITY WILL BE WEAK AT BEST WITH
THIS SYSTEM...AND DESPITE A 40 KT LOW LEVEL JET AND 100 KT UPPER
LEVEL JET ENHANCING SHEAR DURING FRONTAL PASSAGE...SEVERE WEATHER
DEVELOPMENT IS UNLIKELY. IMPRESSIVE DYNAMICS COULD SUPPORT
ISOLATED ELEVATED CONVECTION...AND WILL THUS MAINTAIN A SLIGHT
CHANCE FOR THUNDER DURING A FEW HOURS WEDNESDAY. IT SHOULD BE
NOTED THAT BREEZY CONDITIONS ARE POSSIBLE ON WEDNESDAY CONSIDERING
THE STRONG WIND PROFILE...HOWEVER MUCH UNCERTAINTY REMAINS
REGARDING THE MIXING POTENTIAL INTO THE LOW LEVEL JET WITHIN SUCH
THICK SKY COVER.

THE SHORTWAVE TROUGH DRIVING THE SURFACE LOW WILL RAPIDLY TRACK
NORTHEAST INTO THE MID ATLANTIC STATES WEDNESDAY NIGHT...PULLING
THE ASSOCIATED COLD FRONT OFF THE SOUTHEAST COAST BY WEDNESDAY
EVENING. EXPECT PRECIPITATION POTENTIAL TO ALSO RAPIDLY DIMINISH
FROM SOUTHWEST TO NORTHEAST EARLY WEDNESDAY EVENING...WITH RAIN
CHANCES BELOW 15 PERCENT ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA BY MIDNIGHT.

HIGH TEMPERATURES BOTH WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY WILL REACH THE MID
TO UPPER 60S EVEN BEHIND THE COLD FRONT...AS COLDEST AIR FAILS TO
REACH THIS FAR SOUTH BY THURSDAY. THE MOST NOTICEABLE INTRUSION OF
COLDER AIR WILL COME WITH A SECONDARY DRY FRONT ON THURSDAY...AS A
BROADER UPPER TROUGH DIPS INTO THE GREAT LAKES REGION FROM CENTRAL
CANADA. DRY SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD INTO THE REGION
FRIDAY...AND TEMPERATURES WILL REFLECT THE NOTICEABLY COLDER AIR
MASS ACCORDINGLY. LOW TEMPERATURES THURSDAY NIGHT WILL FALL INTO
THE UPPER 30S INLAND TO LOWER 40S NEAR THE COAST...WHILE HIGH
TEMPERATURES WILL ONLY REACH THE MID 50S FRIDAY AFTERNOON.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY/...
COLDEST CONDITIONS OF THE PERIOD WILL OCCUR FRIDAY NIGHT...AS
TEMPERATURES FALL INTO THE UPPER 20S WELL INLAND TO THE LOW 30S
ELSEWHERE. EXPANSIVE DRY SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD INTO THE
REGION FROM THE WEST AND GENERALLY REMAIN IN CONTROL. THE PATTERN
ALOFT THROUGH THE WEEKEND WILL MAINLY BE CHARACTERIZED BY A SERIES
OF SHORTWAVES AND UPPER TROUGHING...SUPPORTING MORE SEASONAL
CONDITIONS THROUGH SUNDAY. EXPECT HIGH TEMPERATURES TO RANGE IN
THE MID TO UPPER 50S...WITH LOW TEMPERATURES FALLING BACK INTO THE
30 DEGREE RANGE. SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE WILL BEGIN TO SLIP OFF THE
COAST MONDAY AND TUESDAY...WHILE THE UPPER LEVEL PATTERN BECOMES
LESS AMPLIFIED. THIS WILL ALLOW SOME MODERATING OF THE
TEMPERATURES BY EARLY NEXT WEEK. WILL KEEP RAIN CHANCES BELOW 15
PERCENT THROUGH THE PERIOD.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
QUITE A DIFFICULT TAF FORECAST FOR THE 18Z PACKAGE. CURRENTLY LOW
STRATUS HAS DEVELOPED BEHIND A FRONTAL BOUNDARY PUSHING SLOWLY
SOUTHWARD THROUGH SOUTHERN SOUTH CAROLINA...JUST TO THE NORTH OF
THE KCHS TERMINAL. TEMPERATURES HAVE WARMED INTO THE LOWER/MIDDLE
70S SOUTH OF THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY AND WITH SURFACE PRESSURES
LOWERING...WE DON/T ANTICIPATE THE FRONT PUSHING TOO MUCH FURTHER
SOUTH THIS AFTERNOON. GIVEN THE PROXIMITY OF IFR CIGS TO THE KCHS
TERMINAL HOWEVER...WILL BE CLOSELY MONITORING CONDITIONS FOR
POSSIBLE AMENDMENTS THROUGH THE AFTERNOON.

THE WEAK FRONTAL BOUNDARY IS EXPECTED TO DISSIPATE LATE THIS
AFTERNOON AND THIS EVENING...ALLOWING WINDS TO SHIFT ONSHORE. WITH
THE INCREASE IN LOW LEVEL MOISTURE...ESPECIALLY ALONG THE REMNANTS
OF THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY OVER THE KCHS TERMINAL...EXPECT VSBYS AND
CIGS TO DROP TO MVFR LEVELS THIS EVENING. CAN/T RULE OUT SOME IFR
STRATUS AS WELL...BUT CONFIDENCE IN THIS IS TOO LOW TO INCLUDE AT
THIS TIME. AT THE KSAV TERMINAL...LOW LEVEL MOISTURE WON/T BE
QUITE AS PREVALENT...SO WILL KEEP CONDITIONS VFR THROUGH LATE
TONIGHT. INCREASING DEEP MOISTURE THIS EVENING AND OVERNIGHT...MAY
RESULT IN SOME ISOLATED SHOWERS DRIFTING THROUGH THE
TERMINALS...SO TO ACCOUNT FOR THIS HAVE INCLUDED VCSH IN BOTH
TAFS.

DEEPER MOISTURE AND BETTER FORCING FOR ASCENT WILL OVERSPREAD THE
TERMINALS LATE TONIGHT AND THROUGH THE MORNING WEDNESDAY...SO HAVE
PREVAILING MVFR CONDITIONS MENTIONED AT BOTH TAF SITES. ONCE AGAIN
IFR CONDITIONS WILL BE POSSIBLE...ESPECIALLY AT THE KCHS
TERMINAL...BUT CONFIDENCE IN THIS OCCURRING IS TOO LOW TO MENTION
IN THE TAF AT THIS TIME.

SHOULD SEE IMPROVING CONDITIONS AT THE KSAV BY EARLY/MID WEDNESDAY
AFTERNOON AND AT KCHS BY LATE WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON.

EXTENDED AVIATION OUTLOOK...PERIODIC MVFR OR LOWER CIGS/VSBYS APPEAR
LIKELY THROUGH WED AFTERNOON IN ASSOCIATION WITH A COLD FRONTAL
PASSAGE. OTHERWISE...VFR CONDITIONS SHOULD PREVAIL.

&&

.MARINE...
A WEAK PRES GRADIENT OVER THE WATERS THROUGH THIS EVENING WITH
LIGHT WINDS AND SEAS MAINLY AT OR BELOW 2 FT. THE GRADIENT WILL
BEGIN TO TIGHTEN TONIGHT BUT STABLE MARINE CONDITIONS AS WARM
AIR ADVECTION TOPS THE BOUNDARY LAYER. THIS SHOULD SPELL A SLOW
INCREASE IN WINDS TO 10 TO 15 KT AFTER MIDNIGHT WITH DIRECTIONS
SLOWLY VEERING FROM E TO SE.

WEDNESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY...MARINE CONDITIONS WILL RAPIDLY
DETERIORATE WEDNESDAY AS A COLD FRONT CROSSES THE REGION BY THE
AFTERNOON HOURS. WINDS AND SEAS COULD REACH SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY
THRESHOLDS FOR PORTIONS OF THE WATERS WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON AND
EVENING. STRONGEST COLD ADVECTION WILL ACTUALLY OCCUR WITH A
SECONDARY DRY FRONT THURSDAY AFTERNOON...ALLOWING WINDS TO AGAIN
APPROACH ADVISORY LEVELS LATE THURSDAY INTO EARLY FRIDAY. EXPECT
CONDITIONS TO GRADUALLY IMPROVE INTO THE WEEKEND...AS A WEAKER
PRESSURE GRADIENT DEVELOPS UNDER SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE.
