AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GREENVILLE-SPARTANBURG SC
225 PM EDT TUE MAY 15 2012

.SYNOPSIS...
A BROAD AND SLOW MOVING UPPER LEVEL TROF WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE EAST
ACROSS THE AREA THROUGH THURSDAY. HIGH PRESSURE WILL THEN BUILD IN
FROM THE NORTH ON FRIDAY AND REMAIN THROUGH EARLY NEXT WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
WATER VAPOR IMAGERY SHOWS A POSITIVELY TILTED LONG WAVE TROUGH
ORIENTED NE TO SW ACROSS KENTUCKY...TENNESSEE AND BACK INTO CENTRAL
ARKANSAS. THE TROUGH AXIS WILL APPROACH THE FA OVERNIGHT...KEEPING
THE REGION UNDER WEAK PVA. SURFACE BASED CAPE VALUES HAVE INCREASED
TO 2000-2500 J/KG OVER MUCH OF THE FA...AND SHRA AND A FEW TSTMS
HAVE BEGUN TO FIRE IN AN AXIS OF WEAK SFC CONVERGECNE ACROSS THE
MTNS...AND BACK ACROSS THE CENTRAL UPSTATE ALONG A DIFFERENTIAL
HEATING BNDRY LEFT OVER FROM THE STRATUS THIS MORNING. SPC HAS
TUGGED THE DAY 1 SLIGHT RISK BACK TO THE WEST AND IT NOW EFFECTIVELY
COVERS THE ENTIRE FA. WITH A LITTLE DRY AIR ALOFT...SOME OF THE
STROMS THIS AFTN AND EVENING WILL HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO PRODUCE WIND
DAMAGE AND LARGE HAIL. THERE IS EVEN A SMALL RISK OF A BRIEF TORNADO
UP ALONG THE I-77 CORRIDOR WITH THE LLVL WINDS WILL BE BACKED AHEAD
OF THE TROUGH AN LOW LCL/S.

ASIDE FROM THE SEVERE RISK...THE POTENTIAL FOR FLASH FLOODING WILL
LAST INTO THE NIGHT AS WELL. CONVECTION HAS BEEN A LITTLE SLOW TO
GET GOING WITH THE EXTENSIVE CLOUD COVER THIS MORNING...BUT CELLS
ARE IGNITING QUICKLY OVER THE MTNS ATTM. THEY ARE ALREADY EXHIBITING
A TENDANCY TO ANCHOR ALONG MTN RIDGES. ADDITIONAL DIRUNAL HEADING
AND THE APPROACH OF A SHORT WAVE OVER MIDDLE TN WILL RESULT IN A
GRADUAL INCREASE IN COVERAGE AND INTENSITY...AND SOME OF THE CELLS
WILL BEGIN TO PRODUCE 1 TO 2 INCH PER HOUR RAINFALL RATES. I/M
GENERALLY HAPPY WITH THE ORIENTATION OF THE FLASH FLOOD WATCH OVER
THE CENTRAL AND NRN MTNS...AND THEN POINTS EASTWARD ACROSS THE NRN
UPSTATE AND MUCH OF THE NC PIEDMONT AND FOOTHILLS. CONVECTION SHOULD
TEND TO CONSOLIDATE AND PUSH ACROSS THE WATCH AREA INTO THE EVENING
HOURS. WHILE HEAVY RAIN WON/T BE WIDESPREAD...MANY LOCATIONS IN THE
WATCH ARE SATURATED TO THE POINT THAT IT WILL ONLY TAKE A QUICK TWO
INCHES OF RAIN TO CAUSE STREAMS TO FLOOD. THE WATCH RUNS THROUGH 4
AM. THIS SHOULD BE PLENTY OF TIME FOR THE NC MTNS. HOWEVER...THE NAM
WANTS TO MAINTAIN CONVECTION OVER THE NC PIEDMONT AND NE UPSTATE OF
SC MUCH OF THE NIGHT. THE SAME THING HAPPENED LAST NIGHT...AND I
WOULDN/T BE SURPISED TO SEE THE CHARLOTTE METRO AREA SEE SOME OF
IT/S HEAVIEST RAIN IN THE LATE EVENING OR OVERNIGHT HOURS.

THE WEAK TROUGH AXIS WILL SLIDE A LITTLE TO THE EAST ON WEDNESDAY
AND THE H5 WINDS WILL BE QUITE LIGHT. OVERALL...THIS SHOULD RESULT
IN MUCH LESS CONVECTIVE COVERAGE OVER THE MTNS. THE UPSTATE AND NE
GA WILL SEE THE BEST COVERAGE. I HAVE 40 POPS IN THIS AREA FOR
NOW...BUT IT WOULDN/T SURPRISE ME TO SEE GREATER COVERAGE THAN THIS
ACROSS THE SE ZONES.

&&

.SHORT TERM /WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY/...
AS OF 215 PM TUESDAY...ON THURSDAY...THE CWA WILL REMAIN IN THE
VICINITY OF THE MID LEVEL TROUGH DURING THE DAYLIGHT HOURS. AT THE
SFC...A NEARLY WEST TO EAST ORIENTED FRONT WILL SLIP SOUTHWARD
ACROSS THE THE SOUTHERN APPALACHIANS DURING THE AFTERNOON. FORECAST
SOUNDINGS INDICATE A WEAK H6 INVERSION...WITH SHALLOW DEEP LAYER
LAPSE RATES. CAPE VALUES MAY REMAIN LIMITED TO LESS THAN 1000 J/KG
DURING THE AFTERNOON. HOWEVER...THE COMBINATION OF THE CYCLONIC FLOW
ALOFT...WEAK INSTABILITY...AND A SFC BOUNDARY SHOULD SUPPORT CHC
POPS ACROSS THE MTNS RIDGES AND SCHC EAST. HIGH TEMPERATURES ARE
EXPECTED TO RANGE FROM THE U70S WITHIN THE MTN VALLEYS TO L80S EAST.

ON FRIDAY...THE H5 TROF AXIS SHOULD TRACK SE AND HEIGHTS SHOULD RISE
ACROSS THE MTNS DURING THE AFTERNOON. AT THE SFC...HIGH PRESSURE
SHOULD SE ACROSS THE WESTERN CAROLINAS AND NE GEORGIA THROUGH THE
DAY...RESULTING IN NE LLVL FLOW. FORECAST SOUNDINGS INDICATE WARM
MID LEVEL TEMPS...KEEPING CAPE VALUES LESS THAN THURSDAY. GIVEN THE
PATTERN...I WILL KEEP POPS LIMITED TO A SCHC ACROSS THE HIGHEST
ELEVATIONS...OTHERWISE...CONDITIONS WILL LIKELY REMAIN DRY.
TEMPERATURES SHOULD RANGE VERY CLOSE TO NORMAL.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY/...
AS OF 1230 PM TUESDAY...BASED ON HPC DISCUSSION...I WILL FAVOR THE
0Z ECMWF THROUGH THE EXTENDED PERIOD. BROAD H5 RIDGING IS FORECAST
TO REMAIN ACROSS THE REGION THROUGH THE WEEKEND...THEN A CLOSED LOW
MAY CUT OFF OVER FL ON MON AND LIFT NORTH INTO THE MIDDLE OF NEXT
WEEK. AT THE SFC...WEAK HIGH PRESSURE SHOULD REMAIN RIDGED NE TO SE
ACROSS THE CWA THROUGH MOST OF THE EXTENDED PERIOD. BASED ON THIS
PATTERN...I WILL FAVOR A DRY FORECAST ACROSS THE REGION THIS
WEEKEND. I WILL FORECAST INCREASING SCHC TO CHC POPS MON AND TUES
ACROSS THE CWA. TEMPERATURES SHOULD RANGE WITHIN A FEW DEGREES OF
NORMAL THROUGH THE PERIOD.

&&

.AVIATION /19Z TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
AT KCLT...SCT SHRA ARE DEVELOPING OVER THE UPSTATE A WAYS TO THE SW
OF THE AIRFIELD. SHOWERS MAY MAKE IT TO THE VCNTY OF THE AIRFIELD BY
19 UTC...WITH A PERIOD OF STRONGER TSTMS FROM 20 TO 24 UTC AS THE
CONVECTION CONTINUES TO DEVELOP IN THE UNSTABLE AIRMASS. I/VE PUT IN
A TEMPO THUNDER GROUP FOR THIS PERIOD. THE CONVECTION MAY GO QUITE A
BIT FARTHER INTO THE EVENING THAN THIS...THOUGH IT/S TOO UNCERTAIN
TO ADD ANY THUNDER BEYOND 00 UTC. LOW CIGS MAY DEVELOP LATE
TONIGHT...THOUGH THIS WILL DEPEND ON HOW MUCH RAIN FALLS THIS
EVENING. FOR NOW I/VE GONE WITH BKN020. WINDS WILL BE SW THROUGH
TONIGHT...TURNING LIGHT OUT OF THE NE WED AFTER SUNRISE.

ELSEWHERE...SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS TSTMS WILL DEVELOP ACROSS THE
REGION THIS AFTN. THE STORMS WILL GRADUALLY BECOME STRONGER AND MORE
WIDESPREAD INTO THE LATE AFTN AND EVENING HOURS. AN INITIAL BATCH OF
STORMS WILL MISS KGSP AND KGMU TO THE SOUTH...BUT MORE CONVECTION IS
DEVELOPING UPSTREAM. TEMPO GROUPS HAVE BEEN ADDED
EVERYWHERE...STARTING FIRST AT KAVL...AND A FEW HOURS LATER ACROSS
THE UPSTATE AND AT KHKY. LOW CIGS AND SOME FOG WILL BE POSSIBLE
AGAIN TONIGHT...BUT THIS WILL DEPEND ON HOW MUCH RAIN FALLS THIS
AFTN...AND I/VE GENERALLY SHIED AWAY FROM CARRYING ANYTHING
RESTRICTIVE OVERNIGHT FOR NOW.

OUTLOOK...EXPECT ISOLD LATE DAY SHOWERS AND TSTMS THRU LATE WEEK.
MRNG FOG PSBL...ESPLY MTN VALLEYS AND NEAR LAKES/RIVERS.
