AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GREENVILLE-SPARTANBURG SC
135 PM EDT FRI JUN 1 2012

.SYNOPSIS...
A COLD FRONT WILL CROSS THE REGION FROM THE WEST TODAY. HIGH
PRESSURE WILL BUILD OVER THE AREA THROUGH THE WEEKEND. ANOTHER FRONT
CROSSES THE AREA EARLY NEXT WEEK...FOLLOWED BY MORE HIGH PRESSURE.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
EARLIER THINKING STILL INTACT BUT ANTICIPATING A SVR TSTM WATCH
FARTHER E...PSBLY I-77 CORRIDOR AND E...MAYBE EVEN E OF THAT.
UPDATED SKY/WIND/POPS AND WX WITH LATEST GUIDANCE AND TRENDS FOR
THIS CYCLE.

PREVIOUS DISCUSSION...THREAT FOR SEVERE WEATHER WILL INCREASE AS ONE
MOVES EAST FROM THE BLUE RIDGE TO THE COASTAL PLAIN. A SEVERE
WEATHER WATCH OF SOME SORT SHOULD BE ANTICIPATED E OF THE MTNS LATER
TODAY. TEMPS WERE KEPT SOMEWHAT COOL OVER THE WEST WITH THE
EXPECTATION OF EXTENSIVE CLOUDS AND PRECIP EARLY IN THE DAY.

THE COLD FRONT SHOULD SWEEP EAST OF THE NC PIEDMONT AND TAKE MOST OF
THE PRECIP WITH IT BY SUNSET. A LOW END PRECIP CHANCE HAS BEEN
RETAINED UNTIL MIDNIGHT OVER THE AREA E OF I-77 TO ACCOUNT FOR ANY
SLIP IN THE TIMING. DRY AIR WILL WORK IN BEHIND THE FRONT AFTER
MIDNIGHT. MIN TEMPS WERE NUDGED TOWARD A BLEND OF THE GUIDANCE.

&&

.SHORT TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT/...
AT 0230 EDT FRIDAY...AN ANOMALOUS CLOSED UPPER LOW WILL SLOWLY
MIGRATE FROM THE GREAT LAKES ON SATURDAY TO THE VICINITY OF LAKE
ONTARIO BY LATE SUNDAY...BY WHICH TIME ANOTHER UPPER LOW WILL BEGIN
TO DEVELOP OFF THE COAST OF NEW ENGLAND.

OUR AREA WILL BE IN A POST FRONTAL REGIME SATURDAY...WITH WEAK HIGH
PRESSURE CROSSING THE GULF STATES. BOTH THE NAM AND THE GFS SHOW
MOISTURE ASSOCIATED WITH A SHORTWAVE ROUNDING THE GREAT LAKES UPPER
LOW MOVING INTO THE CENTRAL APPALACHIANS LATE SATURDAY...CLIPPING
THE SOUTHERN APPALACHIANS ON SATURDAY NIGHT. ON SUNDAY THE NAM DRIES
OUR AREA OUT CONSIDERABLY...WHILE THE GFS LIFTS THE TRAILING END OF
THE FRONT TO OUR SOUTH...AND ITS MOISTURE...TOWARD OUR AREA. BOTH
MODELS DROP ANOTHER BAND OF MOISTURE SOUTH INTO WESTERN NC ON SUNDAY
NIGHT AS A DEVELOPING COLD FRONT ARRIVES. ONLY MINIMAL POPS WILL BE
CARRIED IN THE NORTHERN NC MOUNTAINS. TEMPERATURES WILL WARM FROM
WELL BELOW NORMAL...TO SEVERAL CATEGORIES BELOW NORMAL AHEAD OF THE
NEXT FRONT.

&&

.LONG TERM /MONDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
AT 0230 EDT FRIDAY...AN ANOMALOUS CLOSED UPPER LOW WILL BE PARKED
OFF THE NEW ENGLAND COAST FROM MONDAY THROUGH THURSDAY...WITH A
TROUGH EXTENDING SOUTH ALONG THE EAST COAST. OUR AREA WILL BE IN A
WESTERLY POST FRONTAL DOWNSLOPE FLOW ON MONDAY. LOW LEVEL FLOW VEERS
TO THE NORTH AND NORTHEAST FROM TUESDAY THROUGH THURSDAY AS HIGH
PRESSURE BUILDS SOUTH FROM THE GREAT LAKES.

DESPITE WHAT WOULD APPEAR TO BE A DRY PATTERN FOR OUR AREA...THE
MODELS BRING VARIOUS AMOUNTS OF MOISTURE SOUTH ALONG THE EASTERN
SEABOARD ON THE BACK SIDE OF THE UPPER LOW. CONFIDENCE IS LOW ON THE
AMOUNT AND TIMING OF THIS MOISTURE. LOW POPS WILL BE CARRIED THROUGH
THE PERIOD...FAVORING THE MOUNTAINS WHERE TERRAIN EFFECTS WILL COME
INTO PLAY. TEMPERATURES WILL WARM FROM NEARLY NORMAL TO SEVERAL
CATEGORIES BELOW NORMAL AS THE COOLER AIR MASS BUILDS IN.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
AT KCLT...MAIN CONCERN WILL BE TEMPO TSRA WITH MVFR CIG/VSBY...UNTIL
THE FRONT GOES THRU EARLY THIS EVE. CONVECTION WILL DIE OFF QUICKLY
BY MID EVE WITH VFR CONDITIONS OVERNIGHT. SW WINDS WILL SWING W THEN
NW WITH FROPA AFTER SUNSET. LOOK FOR PCLDY SKIES WITH N WINDS AT
10KT SAT.

ELSEWHERE...SIMILAR TO KCLT BUT EARLIER END TO TSTM ACTIVITY WITH
EARLIER FROPA.

OUTLOOK...DRIER CONDITIONS THIS WEEKEND THEN ANOTHER FRONT WILL
AFFECT THE REGION EARLY NEXT WEEK.

THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR NORTHEAST GEORGIA...PIEDMONT
NORTH CAROLINA...WESTERN NORTH CAROLINA AND UPSTATE SOUTH CAROLINA.

.DAY ONE...TODAY AND TONIGHT.

THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TO DEVELOP ACROSS NORTHEAST GEORGIA AND
THE WESTERN CAROLINAS TODAY AHEAD OF A STRONG COLD FRONT. THE
STORMS SHOULD BECOME MORE NUMEROUS DURING THE MIDDLE PART OF THE
DAY WITH SOME DAYTIME HEATING. SEVERAL OF THE THUNDERSTORMS ARE
EXPECTED TO PRODUCE SEVERE WEATHER...MAINLY IN THE FORM OF
DAMAGING WIND GUSTS AND LARGE HAIL. HOWEVER...THERE SHOULD BE
ENOUGH WIND SHEAR AT LOW LEVELS OF THE ATMOSPHERE THAT A FEW
TORNADOES WILL BE POSSIBLE IN SOME OF THE STRONGER STORMS. THE
STORMS MAY EVENTUALLY ORGANIZE INTO A SQUALL LINE...BUT THIS MIGHT
NOT HAPPEN UNTIL LATE IN THE DAY AND EAST OF INTERSTATE 77. IF A
SQUALL LINE DEVELOPS...MORE WIDESPREAD WIND DAMAGE WILL BE THE
RESULT. THE GREATEST CHANCE OF SEVERE WEATHER WILL BE ACROSS THE
PIEDMONT FROM MID AFTERNOON TO EARLY EVENING. THE THREAT OF SEVERE
WEATHER SHOULD END WITH THE PASSAGE OF THE COLD FRONT FROM THE
WEST THROUGH SUNSET.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY.

NO HAZARDOUS WEATHER IS EXPECTED AT THIS TIME.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

SKYWARN SPOTTERS ARE REQUESTED TO FORWARD ANY REPORTS OF LARGE
HAIL...DAMAGING WINDS...TORNADOES OR FLASH FLOODING TO OUR OFFICE.
