AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHARLESTON SC
148 PM EDT SAT SEP 29 2012

.SYNOPSIS...
A COLD FRONT WILL SLOWLY APPROACH THE REGION THIS AFTERNOON AND
TONIGHT...THEN WILL BECOME STATIONARY IN THE VICINITY OF THE AREA
SUNDAY. THIS FRONT THEN LIFTS NORTHWARD AS A WARM FRONT
MONDAY...AS LOW PRESSURE TRACKS NORTH FROM THE GULF OF MEXICO. THE
LOW PRESSURE WILL PUSH A COLD FRONT INTO THE REGION AROUND
TUESDAY...AND THIS FRONT COULD STALL NEAR THE SOUTHEAST COAST
THROUGH THE LATTER HALF OF NEXT WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
ISOLATED SHOWERS WERE DEVELOPING EARLY SATURDAY AFTERNOON.
ADJUSTED POPS ACCORDINGLY. OTHERWISE...FORECAST REASONING HAS NOT
CHANGED SIGNIFICANTLY SINCE SATURDAY MORNING.

DEEP LAYER MOISTURE/HEIGHT FALLS AND AN ASSOCIATED COLD FRONT
SUPPORTING A BAND OF SHOWERS/ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS NORTH OF THE
FORECAST AREA WILL CONTINUE TO SPREAD S/SE INTO THE REGION THIS
AFTERNOON. WITHIN THIS REGIME... WARMING/DESTABILIZATION WILL
SUPPORT INCREASING COVERAGE OF SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS...STARTING
N/W THEN SPREADING S/E.

MAINTAINED LIKELY POPS FOR THE CHARLESTON TRI-COUNTY REGION AND
CHANCE POPS ELSEWHERE LATE AFTERNOON INTO EARLY EVENING.

HIGH LEVEL CLOUD COVER WAS LIMITING INSOLATION/DESTABILIZATION...AND
EARLY SATURDAY AFTERNOON SBCAPES WERE STRUGGLING TO INCREASE TO
1000 J/KG WHILE MLCAPES REMAINED BELOW 500 J/KG. FURTHER...MODIFIED
12Z SOUNDINGS USING HIGHS IN THE MID/UPPER 80S/DEWPOINTS IN THE
MID 60S YIELDED SBCAPES MAINLY AT OR BELOW 1500 J/KG. LIMITED
INSTABILITY/MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES REMAINING BELOW 6 C/KM SHOULD
LIMIT THE POTENTIAL FOR A SIGNIFICANT SEVERE WEATHER EVENT.
NEVERTHELESS...COMBINATION OF INSTABILITY...DEEP LAYER SHEAR
STRENGTHENING TO 30-35 KNOTS NORTH AND 20-25 KNOTS SOUTH AND
DOWNDRAFT CAPES INCREASING TO AT LEAST 1000-1200 J/KG WILL SUPPORT
MULTICELL THUNDERSTORMS AND PERHAPS ISOLATED/BRIEF PULSE SEVERE
THUNDERSTORMS WITH DAMAGING MICROBURSTS AND LARGE HAIL ESPECIALLY
WHERE BOUNDARY INTERACTIONS OCCUR LATER THIS AFTERNOON INTO THIS
EVENING...ESPECIALLY 3-9 PM.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH TUESDAY/...
THE DEEP LOW ALOFT DIVES SOUTH THROUGH THE GREAT LAKES AS THE STRONG
SHORT WAVE SWINGS THROUGH THE MID ATLANTIC STATES. ASSOCIATED HEIGHT
FALLS...ALBEIT VERY LITTLE WILL TAKE PLACE LOCALLY AS WEAKER SHORT
WAVES SHIFT THROUGH THE AREA. AIDED BY SOME UPPER LEVEL DIFLUENCE
WITH THE JET ALOFT AND THE PVA...CONVECTION WILL LINGER WELL INTO
THE NIGHT IN MANY PLACES. 30-50 POPS FOR THE EVENING WILL TREND
DOWN TO 20-30 POPS AFTER MIDNIGHT AS THE PRE-FRONTAL TROUGH PUSHES
TOWARD THE COAST LATE. THE TRAILING COLD FRONT IS DEFINED BY A
SHARP GRADIENT TO THE LIFTED INDICES AND THETA-E RIDGING THAT LAGS
BACK TO THE NW...BUT IT COULD SLIP INTO OUR FAR NW ZONES BY SUNDAY
MORNING. MEANWHILE...SHORT WAVE ENERGY IN THE SOUTHERN BRANCH OF
THE JET STREAM WILL MOVE THROUGH THE SOUTHERN PLAINS
TONIGHT...TRIGGERING CYCLOGENESIS IN THE NW GULF OF MEXICO. WHILE
THIS HAS NO CURRENT BEARING ON THE LOCAL FORECAST...THIS SYSTEM
WILL BE A MAJOR PLAYER FOR AT LEAST THE FIRST PART OF THE
UPCOMING WEEK.

THERE IS PROBABLY TOO MUCH CLOUD COVER FOR ANY SERIOUS FOG
ISSUES TONIGHT...ALTHOUGH THERE ARE HINTS THAT SOME DROP DOWN OF
LOW STRATUS COULD OCCUR WITHIN THE VERY MOIST ENVIRONMENT. WARM
ADVECTION EARLY BECOMES NEUTRAL LATE AT NIGHT...AND THIS SUPPORTS
LOWEST TEMPS IN THE MID OR UPPER 60S...WITH LOWER 70S NEAR THE
SHORELINE.

SUNDAY AND SUNDAY NIGHT...OVERALL THE MODELS ARE IN PRETTY GOOD
AGREEMENT WITH THE EVOLUTION OF THE SYNOPTIC SETUP AND PATTERN. A
DEEP 500 MB CLOSED LOW WILL MOVE EASTWARD AWAY FROM THE GREAT LAKES
AS ANOTHER CLOSED CIRCULATION DEVELOPS OVER THE LOWER MS VALLEY.
THIS FEATURE...AND ASSOCIATED SHORTWAVE ENERGY MOVING THROUGH IN THE
SOUTHWEST FLOW ALOFT ON THE EAST SIDE OF THE MAIN TROF AXIS...WILL
BE ONE OF THE MAIN PLAYERS FOR MUCH OF THE FORECAST. MODELS SHOW THE
FIRST SHOT OF SHORTWAVE ENERGY APPROACHING AND MOVING ACROSS THE
SOUTHEAST SUNDAY AND SUNDAY NIGHT. AS IT DOES SO...AN AREA OF
CONFLUENCE BETWEEN THE TWO CLOSED LOWS WILL HELP TO DRIVE A SURFACE
HIGH OVER THE MID ATLANTIC STATES. MEANWHILE...A SURFACE LOW
DEVELOPING ALONG THE GULF COAST WILL PUSH EASTWARD ACROSS PORTIONS
OF THE DEEP SOUTH. THIS WILL SET UP A COMPLEX SURFACE PATTERN ACROSS
THE REGION WITH HIGH PRESSURE AND IN-SITU COLD AIR DAMMING SETTING
UP AND POTENTIALLY AFFECTING THE FORECAST AREA. BASED ON THE CURRENT
MODELS...IT APPEARS THAT THE CONFLUENCE ALOFT IS TRANSIENT IN NATURE
AND THE RESULTING SURFACE HIGH IS RELATIVELY WEAK. THEREFORE...AS
THE SURFACE LOW DRAWS CLOSER TO THE AREA LATE SUNDAY NIGHT...IT
PUSHES A WELL DEFINED WARM FRONT NORTHWARD ACROSS THE AREA AND
LEAVES THE REGION SOLIDLY IN THE WARM SECTOR. BASED ON MODEL
AGREEMENT...THE FORECAST GENERALLY FOLLOWS THIS SOLUTION. SUNDAY
RAIN CHANCES WILL PRIMARILY BE DRIVEN BY DEVELOPING SCATTERED
CONVECTION IN THE AFTERNOON WITH SURFACE HEATING IN THE DIFFUSE
REGION AHEAD OF THE DEVELOPING SURFACE LOW TO THE WEST. I HAVE KEPT
POPS SIMILAR TO THE PREVIOUS FORECAST...WHICH STILL FEATURES A TIER
OF LIKELY POPS  MAINLY ALONG AND WEST OF I-95. MODEL SOUNDINGS SHOW WEAK
TO LOW END MODERATE CAPE VALUES DUE TO THE WARM PROFILES...WITH
INCREASING MID LEVEL FLOW AS UPPER JETTING STRENGTHENS ALOFT.
OVERALL SEVERE RISK IS STILL LOW...WITH THE LACK OF ROBUST
DESTABILIZATION BEING THE MAIN LIMITING FACTOR. SUBSTANTIAL CLOUD
COVER WILL KEEP MODIFY TEMPS AND LIMIT THEM TO THE LOW 80S FOR HIGHS
AND MID/UPPER 60S FOR LOWS.

MONDAY THROUGH TUESDAY...THE UPPER LEVEL PATTERN WILL AMPLIFY AND
THE REGION WILL INCREASINGLY BECOME CAUGHT IN THE DEEP SOUTHERLY
FLOW BETWEEN THE SHARPENING TROF TO THE WEST AND AN ATLANTIC RIDGE
TO THE EAST. AS THE AFOREMENTIONED SHORTWAVE ENERGY AND WARM FRONT
CONTINUE TO LIFT NORTHWARD ON MONDAY...MODELS INDICATE SOME NVA MAY
AFFECT THE REGION. THEREFORE...MONDAY MAY EVENTUALLY END UP BEING
MOSTLY PRECIP FREE...BUT GIVEN THE UNCERTAINTY WILL MAINTAIN CHANCE
POPS FOR NOW. THE NEXT BEST SHOT FOR PRECIP WILL COME MONDAY NIGHT
AND EARLY TUESDAY AS THE COLD FRONT PUSHES ACROSS THE REGION. HIGH
END CHANCE POPS CONTINUE ON TUESDAY...AND TEMPS ON BOTH DAYS WILL
RUN A FEW DEGREES ABOVE CLIMO.

&&

.LONG TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY/...
MODEL AGREEMENT AND FORECAST CONFIDENCE HAS INCREASED FOR THE FIRST
PART OF THE LONG TERM...THOUGH UNCERTAINTY STILL EXISTS FOR THE LATE
WEEK TIME PERIOD. STARTING TUESDAY NIGHT AND WEDNESDAY...THE DEEP
TROF/CLOSED LOW WILL QUICKLY LIFT OUT TO THE NORTHEAST AS THE
ATLANTIC RIDGE ATTEMPTS TO NOSE IN FROM THE EAST. AT THE
SURFACE...THE COLD FRONT WILL PUSH OFFSHORE THROUGH WEDNESDAY WITH
HIGH PRESSURE RETURNING TO THE SOUTHEAST THROUGH THURSDAY.
THEREAFTER...MODELS BEGIN TO DIVERGE MAINLY CONCERNING THE OFFSHORE
FRONT AND THE POTENTIAL FOR MOISTURE ASSOCIATED WITH IT TO PUSH BACK
NORTHWARD. THE GFS KEEPS THE MOISTURE AND PRECIP WELL TO THE SOUTH
WHILE THE ECMWF CONTINUES TO ADVERTISE PRECIP MOVING BACK IN FROM
THE SOUTH ON FRIDAY. I HAVE GONE WITH A DECREASING POP TREND THROUGH
THURSDAY...BUT STILL HANG ON TO LOW END POPS THROUGH LATE IN THE
PERIOD DUE TO THE INHERENT UNCERTAINTY. FORECAST HIGHS/LOWS FEATURE
TEMPS RUNNING A DEGREE OR TWO ABOVE NORMAL.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
EXPECT VFR CONDITIONS TO PERIODICALLY DETERIORATE TO MVFR LEVELS LATE
THIS AFTERNOON AND INTO THE EVENING AS SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
DEVELOP ACROSS THE AREA. CONVECTION INITIATION TIMING MAY NEED TO BE
ADJUSTED ONCE RADAR TRENDS BECOME BETTER ESTABLISH...BUT
OVERALL...EXPECT AT LEAST SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS TO DEVELOP BY 20Z
WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR GUSTY WINDS...ESPECIALLY AT KCHS. AT
KSAV...THUNDERSTORM POTENTIAL APPEARS MORE LIKELY INLAND OF THE
TERMINAL...BUT AS INLAND BOUNDARIES INTERACT WITH THE
SEABREEZE...CONVECTION COULD WORK ITS WAY BACK TOWARD THE COAST.

LIGHT WINDS WILL CONTINUE TO VEER OVERNIGHT AS MID TO HIGH CLOUDS
RESIDE OVER THE AREA. CLOUD COVERAGE SHOULD HINDER FOG
FORMATION...BUT WITH PLENTY OF LOW LEVEL MOISTURE LINGERING FROM
CONVECTION...SCATTER LOW LEVEL STRATUS COULD DEVELOP PRIOR TO
DAYBREAK. HOWEVER...WILL STILL NEED TO MONITOR CLOUD COVERAGE OVERNIGHT
AS MODELS SHOW SUBSTANTIAL CLEARING JUST INLAND OF KCHS WHICH COULD
ACTUALLY ENHANCE FOG POTENTIAL.

EXTENDED AVIATION OUTLOOK...CONDITIONS WILL BECOME INCREASINGLY
UNSETTLED ON SUNDAY AND INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK AS A FRONT STALLS
ACROSS THE REGION. PERIODIC RESTRICTIONS WILL BE POSSIBLE WITH
SHRA/TSRA DURING THIS TIME.

&&

.MARINE...
A WEAK PRESSURE PATTERN WILL SUPPORT OFFSHORE WINDS LESS THAN 10
KNOTS BECOMING ONSHORE AROUND 10 KNOTS AS THE SEA BREEZE DEVELOPS
THIS AFTERNOON. SEAS WILL REMAIN IN THE 1-2 FT RANGE.

MARINERS ARE ALERTED TO THE POTENTIAL FOR SOME STRONG T-STORMS
LATE TODAY INTO TONIGHT IN ADVANCE OF THE PRE-FRONTAL TROUGH. A
FEW OF THESE STORMS COULD PRODUCE STRONG GUSTS EXCEEDING 30 KT...
VERY HEAVY RAINS/POOR VISIBILITY AND FREQUENT LIGHTNING STRIKES.

SUNDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY...A LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL ORGANIZE TO
THE WEST ON SUNDAY...EVENTUALLY PUSHING A WARM FRONT ACROSS THE
LOCAL WATERS INTO MONDAY. SOUTHERLY FLOW WILL BE THE DOMINANT FLOW
REGIME UNTIL A COLD FRONT MOVES ACROSS TUESDAY AND TUESDAY NIGHT.
HIGH PRESSURE WILL RETURN TO THE AREA BY MID WEEK. OVERALL...WINDS
AND SEAS ARE EXPECTED TO REMAIN BELOW ADVISORY LEVELS. CONDITIONS
MAY APPROACH MARGINAL SMALL CRAFT LEVELS MONDAY NIGHT IN A LOW LEVEL
SURGE BEHIND THE DEPARTING WARM FRONT BUT WILL JUST FEATURE FLOW
INCREASING TO 15-20 KTS FOR NOW. SEAS WILL ALSO BE ON THE INCREASE
DURING THIS TIME...WITH 5 FT POSSIBLE BEYOND 20 NM.
