AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GREENVILLE-SPARTANBURG SC
749 PM EDT SAT JUN 23 2012

.SYNOPSIS...
A WEAK COLD FRONT STALLED ACROSS THE REGION WILL DISSIPATE
OVERNIGHT. MEANWHILE A UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE WILL CROSS THE
NORTHERN TIER OF THE FORECAST AREA ON SUNDAY...WITH ANOTHER COLD
FRONT ARRIVING FROM THE NORTHWEST LATE MONDAY. DRIER HIGH PRESSURE
WILL BUILD IN BEHIND THE FRONT TUESDAY THROUGH THE REST OF THE WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH SUNDAY/...
AS OF 745 PM...SCT CONVECTION ONGOING OVER THE UPSTATE WITH ISOLATED
ELSEWHERE. HAVE UPDATED TO KEEP POP IN A LITTLE LONGER ACROSS THE
AREA. ADDED FOG FOR MUCH OF THE AREA OVERNIGHT AS WELL. MAIN CHANGES
WERE FOR CURRENT CONDITIONS.

AS OF 430 PM...UPDATED FORECAST FOR CURRENT CONDITIONS. BEST CHC OF
CONVECTION WILL BE ALONG THE BLUE RIDGE AND OVER THE UPSTATE/NE GA.
LESS CHC OVER THE NC PIEDMONT AND TN BORDER.

AT 1430 EDT SATURDAY...AN UPPER TROUGH WILL REMAIN ALONG THE EAST
COAST THROUGH SUNDAY...WITH A RIDGE UPSTREAM CENTERED OVER THE
PLAINS. THE MODELS SHOW A WEAK MID LEVEL IMPULSE MOVING INTO THE
TROUGH THIS AFTERNOON...AND A SLIGHTLY STRONGER ONE DOING SO ON
SUNDAY MORNING. MODEL TIME HEIGHTS REMAIN MOIST BETWEEN 850 AND 700
MB...AS THE REMAINS OF A FRONT LINGER IN OUR VICINITY. LOW LEVEL
FLOW IS EXPECTED TO VEER FROM THE NE TO THE E OR SE TONIGHT...BEFORE
VEERING TO S ON SUNDAY. POPS WILL FAVOR THE BLUE RIDGE IN A WEAK
UPSLOPE FLOW BOTH THIS AFTERNOON AND SUNDAY AFTERNOON...BUT WITH AN
EARLIER START SUNDAY THAN TODAY DUE TO THE TIMING OF THE UPPER
IMPULSE. MODEL INSTABILITY IS SHOWN TO BE GREATER TOMORROW THAN
TODAY...WITH LESS CHANCE OF A MID LEVEL CAP. SUBSTANTIAL DRY AIR
WILL BE IN PLACE AT BENEATH THE MOIST LAYER BOTH THIS AFTERNOON AND
SUNDAY AFTERNOON...SUPPORTING EVAPORATIVE COOLING AND DOWNDRAFTS.
MINIMUM TEMPERATURES WILL BE ABOVE NORMAL IN A MOIST AIR MASS WITH
SOME CLOUD COVER. MAXIMUM TEMPERATURES SUNDAY WILL BE ABOVE NORMAL
AS WELL AS THE TROUGH AXIS REMAINS TO OUR EAST.

&&

.SHORT TERM /SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY/...
AS OF 230 PM SATURDAY...THE SHORT RANGE PERIOD BEGINS SUNDAY EVENING
WITH ONGOING SCATTERED CONVECTION THAT SHOULD LINGER INTO THE
MID/LATE EVENING BEFORE DYING. A CHANCE POP SHOULD COVER THAT
POSSIBILITY. IN THE MEAN TIME...THE UPPER PATTERN WILL CONTINUE AN
AMPLIFYING TREND THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT AND MONDAY AS AN UPPER LOW
DIVES DOWN THROUGH EASTERN CANADA TO NEW ENGLAND AND AN UPPER
ANTICYCLONE SPINS OVER THE SRN/CENTRAL HIGH PLAINS. THE FLOW ALOFT
WILL VEER AND STRENGTHEN FROM THE NW AND NNW THROUGH MONDAY WHICH
WILL DRIVE A COLD FRONT DOWN FROM THE N IN THE AFTERNOON. UPPER
FORCING LOOKS MINIMAL AND THE MODELS SHOW ONLY RELATIVELY SHALLOW
MOISTURE. HOWEVER...THE AMT OF BUOYANCY SHOWN BY THE MODELS IS
COMPELLING WHEN COMBINED WITH WHAT SHOULD BE GOOD LOW LEVEL FORCING
ALONG THE FRONT IN THE AFTERNOON. THE GUIDANCE WAS DISAPPOINTING
WITH THE MOSGUIDE HAVING A VERY LOW CHANCE AND THE SREF HAVING A
VERY HIGH CHANCE. HAVE SPLIT THE DIFFERENCE WHICH PUTS AREAS ALONG
AND E OF THE BLUE RIDGE IN THE 30-50 PCT RANGE THROUGH THE
AFTERNOON. THE CHANCES GRADUALLY SHIFT S WITH THE BOUNDARY THROUGH
LATE MONDAY NIGHT. ONCE THE BOUNDARY IS THROUGH...DRY AND COOLER
HIGH PRESSURE WILL MOVE IN FOR TUESDAY WITH VERY LOW CHANCE FOR RAIN
AND TEMPS A CATEGORY BELOW MONDAY.

&&

.LONG TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY/...
AS OF 115 PM SATURDAY...THE FIRST PART OF THE MEDIUM RANGE LOOKS TO
BE DOMINATED BY THE UPPER BLOCKING PATTERN WITH A DEEP UPPER LOW
OVER NEW ENGLAND AND A LARGE UPPER ANTICYCLONE OVER THE PLAINS. THE
RESULTING NW FLOW ALOFT SHOULD KEEP US DRY UNDER SURFACE HIGH
PRESSURE FOR WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY WITH TEMPS GRADUALLY RISING
ABOVE NORMAL. THE PATTERN STARTS TO EVOLVE LATE IN THE WEEK AS THE
WAVELENGTH OF THE RIDGE BROADENS AND ANOTHER UPPER SYSTEM CROSSES
CANADA TO KICK OUT/REPLACE THE EASTERN UPPER LOW. THE FLOW ALOFT
BECOMES INCREASINGLY WNW FOR FRIDAY AND SATURDAY WHICH WILL
CONTRIBUTE DOWNSLOPE EAST OF THE MTNS AND ALLOW TEMPS TO CLIMB WELL
ABOVE NORMAL. HAVE HELD BACK ON TRIPLE DIGIT HIGHS FOR SATURDAY
GIVEN UNCERTAINTY ON DAY 7...SO HPC GUIDANCE WAS CUT BACK BY A
CATEGORY OR SO. THE OTHER RESULT MIGHT BE THAT WE COME A LITTLE MORE
IN ALIGNMENT WITH AN MCS TRACK BY SATURDAY...WHICH IS INDICATED BY
THE GFS BUT NOT THE OLDER ECMWF. WILL ALLOW PRECIP CHANCES TO COME
AROUND TO A CLIMATOLOGICAL DIURNAL THUNDERSTORM TYPE REGIME...BUT
CONFIDENCE NOT PARTICULARLY HIGH. AT ANY RATE...UNLESS THERE IS SOME
MAJOR CHANGE...NONE OF THE SOLUTIONS ARE SUPPORTIVE OF BRINGING ANY
TROPICAL MOISTURE OUR WAY. FOR THE TIME BEING...WE LOOK INSULATED
FROM WHATEVER BECOMES OF THE ACTIVITY IN THE GULF.

&&

.AVIATION /00Z SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
AT KCLT...ISOLATED TSRA STILL POSSIBLE EARLY THIS EVENING BUT CHC
RAPIDLY DIMINISHING. LIGHT NELY WIND BECOMES LIGHT SELY THRU THE
EVENING. SINCE RAIN DID NOT FALL AT THE AIRFIELD...WILL KEEP VSBY
VFR OVERNIGHT...BUT CANNOT RULE OUT A BRIEF MVFR VSBY NEAR DAYBREAK.
SCT CONVECTION EXPECTED TO DEVELOP ONCE AGAIN SUNDAY AFTERNOON. HAVE
INCLUDED PROB30 FOR THIS. SLY WIND EXPECTED SUNDAY AFTERNOON.

ELSEWHERE...CONVECTION WILL BE CLOSE ENUF FOR VCTS TO CONTINUE EARLY
THIS EVENING BEFORE DIMINISHING. LIGHT WIND NC AND SWLY WIND SC WILL
BECOME CALM OVERNIGHT. MVFR VSBY LIKELY AT KAVL WITH IFR POSSIBLE SO
INCLUDED IN TAF. MVFR LIKELY AT KGSP WITH EARLIER RAIN...AND
POSSIBLE AT THE NORMALLY FOGGIER KHKY/KAND. KGMU USUALLY THE LEAST
LIKELY FOG AREA...SO NOT INCLUDED THERE FOR NOW. S TO SE WIND
EXPECTED SUNDAY AFTERNOON WITH SCT CONVECTION ONCE AGAIN.

OUTLOOK...AT LEAST SCATTERED DIURNAL CONVECTION WILL CONTINUE OVER
