AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GREENVILLE-SPARTANBURG SC
229 PM EDT THU MAY 17 2012

.SYNOPSIS...
AN UPPER LEVEL LOW WILL FORM OVER SOUTH CAROLINA...AND WILL MOVE TO
THE NORTH CAROLINA COAST...WHERE IT WILL LINGER INTO EARLY NEXT
WEEK. HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD IN FROM THE NORTH AND REMAIN THROUGH
MONDAY. A COLD FRONT WILL APPROACH THE AREA FROM THE WEST ON
TUESDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH FRIDAY/...
WATER VAPOR IMAGERY AND THE LATEST RAP MODEL RUN SHOW A NE TO SW
ORIENTED UPPER LOW STRETCHED OVER THE MIDLANDS OF SOUTH
CAROLINA...BACK ACROSS SOUTHEAST GEORGIA. A SPOKE OF PVA ON THE WEST
SIDE OF THE LOW IS HELPING TO ORGANIZE STRONG TO SEVERE CONVECTION
ACROSS THE SOUTHERN PART OF THE UPSTATE. ELSEWHERE...OTHER STORMS
WERE DEVELOPING OVER THE BLUE RIDGE OF NE GA AND SW NC. SOMEWHAT
DRIER AIR HAS PUSHED INTO THE NRN PIEDMONT AND FOOTHILLS OF NE...BUT
AREAS TO THE SOUTH REMAIN QUITE UNSTABLE WITH SB-CAPE VALUES RUNNING
FROM 1500-2000 J/JG. OUR LOCAL WORKSTATION WRF...THE NCEP 4KM WRF
AND THE HRRR ALL AGREE IN DEVELOPING CONVECTION OVER MUCH OF THE
UPSTATE...SOUTHERN NC MTNS AND FOOTHILLS AND NE GA INTO THE EVENING
HOURS. THIS WOULD BE SIMILAR TO WHAT HAPPENED LAST NIGHT. CONFIDENCE
IN THIS DEVELOPMENT IS FAIRLY HIGH...AND POPS WILL BE PUSHED UP TO
50 PERCENT ACROSS THE I-85 CORRIDOR AND UP INTO THE WRN NC FOOTHILLS
FOR THE EVENING HOURS. COOL MID-LEVEL TEMPS AND DRY AIR ALOFT WILL
CONTINUE TO SUPPORT SEVERE WIND AND HAIL EVENTS.

A BACK DOOR COLD FRONT WILL CROSS THE REGION LATE TONIGHT. THE NAM
MIXES DEWPOINTS INTO THE U40S TO L50S ACROSS THE NC FOOTHILLS AND
PIEDMONT AND THE ERN UPSTATE. THIS SHOULD FINALLY END THE THREAT OF
STORMS FOR THESE AREAS. BACK ACROSS THE MOUNTAINS...ESPECIALLY
CLOSER TO THE TN LINE...SCT CONVECTION SHOULD DEVELOP AGAIN TMRW
WHERE LLVL MOISTURE CONVERGENCE WILL BE MAXIMIZED.

&&

.SHORT TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY/...
AT 1430 EDT THURSDAY...A CLOSED UPPER LOW...PART OF AN EAST COAST
REX ...WILL BE LOCATED NEAR THE NC COAST ON FRIDAY NIGHT AND
SATURDAY. ON SUNDAY THIS FEATURE RETROGRADES SLIGHTLY INLAND. THE
MODELS SHOW DRIER AIR MOVING SW INTO OUR AREA ON THE BACK SIDE OF
THE LOW FRIDAY NIGHT AND SATURDAY....WHILE SOME MOISTURE LINGERS
ALONG THE BLUE RIDGE. ON SATURDAY NIGHT THE NAM SHOWS MOISTURE
SPREADING WEST ACROSS THE INTERSTATE 77 CORRIDOR TO THE NC BLUE
RIDGE...WHILE THE GFS REMAINS RATHER DRY UNTIL SUNDAY NIGHT.

POPS WILL INITIALLY BE QUITE LOW AND FOCUSED ALONG THE BLUE
RIDGE...THEN WILL INCREASE SLIGHTLY FROM THE EAST TOWARD SUNDAY...
BUT REMAINING RATHER LOW AS CONFIDENCE IS LIMITED ON THE AMOUNT AND
TIMING OF MOISTURE ENCROACHMENT FROM THE EAST. TEMPERATURES WILL
GENERALLY BE SLIGHTLY BELLOW NORMAL UNDER THE UPPER LOW HEIGHT
ANOMALY.

&&

.LONG TERM /SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY/...
AT 1430 EDT THURSDAY...A LONGWAVE TROUGH WILL PROGRESS ACROSS THE
EASTERN USA FROM MONDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY...PROGRESSING OFFSHORE ON
THURSDAY WHEN A LONGWAVE RIDGE AXIS CROSSES THE MS RIVER VALLEY. A
CLOSED UPPER LOW WILL REMAIN NEAR THE CAROLINA COAST ON MONDAY. THIS
LOW FILLS AND DRIFTS NORTHEAST ON TUESDAY. A SHORTWAVE TROUGH DROPS
SOUTHEAST OVER THE SOUTHERN APPALACHIANS LATE TUESDAY...MOVING OFF
TO THE EAST ON WEDNESDAY.

SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE WILL BE OVER OUR ARE ON MONDAY...BETWEEN A
COASTAL LOW AND A COLD FRONT IN THE MS RIVER VALLEY. CONFIDENCE IS
LIMITED ON THE WESTERN EXTENT OF MOISTURE THAT WILL WRAP AROUND THE
COASTAL LOW TOWARD THE SOUTHERN APPALACHIANS...AND THE RESULTANT
POPS. THE COLD FRONT TO OUR WEST REACHES THE SOUTHERN APPALACHIANS
ON TUESDAY WHILE WEAKENING...WITH THE REMAINS OF THE BOUNDARY
SUPPORTING LENDING SUPPORT TO AT LEAST SMALL POPS. WEDNESDAY AND
THURSDAY FIND OUR AREA UNDER WEAK HIGH PRESSURE...BUT THE MODELS
DEPICT SOME AMOUNT OF LINGERING MOISTURE...OSTENSIBLY ASSOCIATED
WITH THE REMAINS OF THE FORMER FRONT. WITH GULF INFLOW EVENTUALLY
SETTING UP TO OUR WEST...SMALL POPS WILL BE MAINTAINED INTO
THURSDAY...ESPECIALLY IN  THE WEST. TEMPERATURES WILL BE SLIGHTLY
ABOVE NORMAL IN MINOR HEIGHTS RISES BEHIND THE DEPARTING UPPER LOW.

&&

.AVIATION /19Z THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
AT KCLT...STRONG THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE TO FIRE ABOUT 15 MILES
SOUTH OF THE AIRFIELD...THEN DRIFT SOUTH FROM THERE...OVER THE NEXT
COUPLE HOURS. HOWEVER...THE AIRMASS WILL BECOME MORE UNSTABLE BY
LATE AFTN. MOST OF THE SHORT RANGE MODELS WANT TO DEVELOP TSTMS
AROUND THE AIRFIELD STARTING IN A COUPLE HOURS AND THE NNE TO SSW
ORIENTED BANDS OF CU ACROSS THE REGION WILL LIKELY START TO DEEPEN
INTO CB/S WITH TIME. I/VE HELD ON TO VCSH TO ACCOUNT FOR THIS...BUT
A PERIOD OF TEMPO TSRA WILL PROBABLY NEED TO BE ADDED ONCE
DEVELOPMENT STARTS TO OCCUR FARTHER NORTH.

WINDS WILL REMAIN OUT OF THE NE THIS AFTN...THOUGH OUTFLOW BNDRYS
MAY PLAY HAVOC WITH THE WINDS AT TIMES. MVFR CIGS ARE EXPECTED AFTER
MIDNIGHT AS A BACK DOOR COLD FRONT SURGES THROUGH THE REGION. THE
CIGS ARE EXPECTED TO CLEAR OUT BEFORE SUNRISE HOWEVER.

ELSEWHERE...MUCH LIKE AT KCLT...THE ATMOSPHERE WILL BECOME MORE
UNSTABLE OVER THE UPSTATE...AND TSTMS WILL LIKELY BEGIN TO DEVELOP
ON OUTFLOW BNDRYS FROM STORMS EAST OF THE REGION NOW. THIS PROCESS
WILL TAKE A COUPLE HOURS. VCHS IS IN THE TAFS NOW...BUT A PERIOD OF
TEMPO GROUPS IS A GOOD BET ONCE THE NEW CELLS BEGIN TO FIRE.
CONFIDENCE IN TIMING JUST ISN/T HIGH ENUF TO TEMPO YET. KAVL IS MORE
STABLE...BUT SHRA MAY CONTINUE THERE FOR A GOOD BIT OF THE NIGHT.

WINDS OVER THE UPSTATE WILL GENERALLY BE OUT OF THE EAST THE REST OF
THE AFTN...TURNING NE LATE TONIGHT AS A BACK DOOR FRONT SURGES
THROUGH. A PERIOD OF MVFR CIGS IS EXPECTED TO ACCOMPANY THE FRONT.

OUTLOOK...EXPECT ISOLD LATE DAY SHOWERS AND TSTMS IN THE MTNS FRI
AFTN....THEN DRYING OVER THE WEEKEND. MRNG FOG WILL BE PSBL...ESP
MTN VALLEYS AND NEAR LAKES/RIVERS.
