AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GREENVILLE-SPARTANBURG SC
429 PM EDT MON SEP 3 2012

.SYNOPSIS...
THE REMNANTS OF ISAAC WILL CONTINUE TO SLOWLY MOVE EASTWARD ACROSS
THE OHIO RIVER VALLEY TONIGHT. AMPLE MOISTURE OUT AHEAD OF THIS
SYSTEM WILL PERSIST OVER THE WESTERN CAROLINAS AND NORTHEAST GEORGIA
THROUGH MIDWEEK BEFORE A COLD FRONT ARRIVES FROM THE NORTHWEST OVER
THE WEEKEND.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TUESDAY/...
AS OF 425 PM...CONVECTION INCREASING OUTSIDE OF THE MTNS AHEAD OF AN
APPROACHING MCV. THIS IS ACTING ON THE VERY MOIST AND UNSTABLE AIR
MASS TO KICK OFF SEVERAL BKN LINES OF CONVECTION WHICH ARE MOVING NE
ACROSS THE AREA. EXPECT THIS ACTIVITY TO CONTINUE INTO THE EARLY
EVENING BEFORE TAPERING OFF. HAVE INCREASED POP TO CATEGORICAL IN
THESE AREAS. CONVECTION CURRENTLY MINIMAL ACROSS THE MTNS AS A
SLIGHTLY DRIER AN MORE STABLE AIR MASS HAS MOVED IN BEHIND THIS
CONVECTION. HAVE DROPPED POP BACK TO CHC THRU THE EARLY EVENING.
EXPECT SHOWERS AND ISOLATED STORM TO RETURN TO THE MTNS AS MOISTURE
MOVES BACK IN OVERNIGHT. THEREFORE...LET POP RETURN TO AT LEAST
LIKELY IN THESE AREAS. MADE OTHER ADJUSTMENTS BASED ON CURRENT
CONDITIONS.

AS OF MID AFTERNOON...KGSP RADAR SHOWS SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
BLOSSOMING OVER THE PIEDMONT AND UPSTATE...EAST OF REMNANT CLOUD
BOUNDARY...WHERE DESTABILIZATION HAS ALLOWED SFC BASED CAPE TO CLIMB
ABOVE 2500 J/KG. LOW LEVEL FORCING AND BUOYANCY SHOULD ALLOW THIS
TREND TO CONTINUE THROUGH THE LATE AFTERNOON AND INTO THE EARLY
EVENING. HEAVY RAIN REMAINS THE PRIMARY THREAT AS CONVECTIVE
CLUSTERS MOVE FAIRLY SLOW BUT ELONGATE SW TO NE IN THE GENERAL
DIRECTION OF MOVEMENT. CONFIDENCE NOT HIGH ENOUGH TO ISSUE A FLASH
FLOOD WATCH AT THIS TIME...BUT THERE IS A DISTINCT POSSIBILITY THAT
FLOODING COULD BECOME A PROBLEM OVER THE CLT METRO AREA LATE THIS
AFTERNOON OR THIS EVENING.

NOT MUCH HAS CHANGED TO EARLIER THINKING WITH REGARD TO THE FCST
TONIGHT AND TUESDAY. THE WEAKENING UPPER LOW ASSOCIATED WITH REMNANT
OF ISAAC WILL SLOWLY DEAMPLIFY AND STRETCH OUT ACROSS THE
APPALACHIANS AND WRN CAROLINAS THROUGH LATE TUESDAY. SPOKES OF WEAK
DPVA WILL PROVIDE UPPER SUPPORT FOR DEEP CONVECTION. MORE
IMPORTANTLY...THE AIR MASS WILL REMAIN RICH WITH TROPICAL MOISTURE.
A PLUME OF LOW LEVEL THETA-E AND PW IN EXCESS OF 2 INCHES WILL
REMAIN IN PLACE. THE LOW LEVEL FLOW WILL ALSO RETAIN A SOUTHERLY
UPSLOPE COMPONENT...WITH SOME CONVERGENCE OVER THE FOOTHILLS AND
PIEDMONT MAXIMIZING IN THE AFTERNOON ON TUESDAY. THE MODELS RESPOND
IN KIND WITH WIDESPREAD PRECIP COVERAGE FOR THE NEXT 24 HOURS.
ESSENTIALLY...A SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM COULD DEVELOP AT ANY TIME
ACROSS THE ENTIRE FCST AREA THROUGH THE NEAR TERM...MODULATED BY
DAYTIME HEATING. PRECIP CHANCES WILL BE SHOWN TO WANE TOWARD
DAYBREAK TUESDAY...BUT WILL RECOVER QUICKLY WITH HEATING ON TUESDAY.
SEE NO REASON TO THINK STORMS WILL BE ANYTHING LESS THAN NUMEROUS IN
THE AFTERNOON...SO POP WAS RAISED TO LIKELY. TEMPS WILL BE MILD
TONIGHT AND THEN ON THE COOL SIDE OF GUIDANCE TUESDAY. THE SRN
PIEDMONT MAY WARM UP THE MOST TUESDAY AS THEY STAND THE BEST CHANCE
OF BREAKING OUT AT SOME POINT.

&&

.SHORT TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY/...
AS OF 230 PM EDT MONDAY... AT 00Z WEDNESDAY THE REMNANTS OF THE OHIO
VALLEY UPPER LEVEL CYCLONIC CIRCULATION WILL BE IN THE PROCESS OF
BEING PARTIALLY ABSORBED  BY THE FAST WESTERLY FLOW ACROSS THE
NORTHERN HALF OF THE COUNTRY. HOWEVER... A WEAK TROUGH/CYCLONIC
SHEAR AXIS WILL HAVE SEPARATED FROM THE NORTHERN PART OF THE LOW AND
WILL BE DRIFTING ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA WITH A ZONE OF CYCLONIC
VORTICITY ADVECTION PROMOTING UPWARD MOTION. BY WEDNESDAY MORNING...
THE NAM AND GFS PLACE THE AXIS OF THE MID LEVEL TROUGH BASICALLY
NORTH/SOUTH OVER THE MOUNTAINS AND FOOTHILLS. LOW LEVEL AIR MASS
REMAINS VERY MOIST IN ADVANCE OF THE TROUGH. MODEL PROFILES DISPLAY
AFTERNOON CAPES GENERALLY IN THE 1000 TO 1500 J/KG RANGE... SO
CONVECTIVE STORMS CERTAINLY APPEAR LIKELY. MODEST AMOUNTS OF CAPE
PERSIST WELL INTO THE NIGHT... THUS NOCTURNAL SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS ARE QUITE POSSIBLE. PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES REMAIN
HIGH AND WINDS THROUGH THE CLOUD LAYER DO NOT BECOME PARTICULARLY
STRONG. LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN REMAINS A POSSIBILITY. DURING THURSDAY...
THE TROUGH CONTINUES DRIFTING EAST ALLOWING DRIER AIR TO SPREAD INTO
THE CWA FROM THE WEST. GFS HINTS AT A LITTLE MORE LINGERING MOISTURE
THAN THE NAM AT THIS POINT. HAVE OPTED TO CONTINUE WITH CHANCE AND
SLIGHT CHANCE POPS IN THE FAR WEST ON THURSDAY WITH CHANCE POPS
CENTRAL AND EAST. CLOUDS AND SHOWERS WILL HOLD DAYTIME TEMPERATURES
WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY IN THE 80S WITH 70S IN THE MOUNTAINS...
ALTHOUGH A LITTLE MORE SUN ON THURSDAY COULD BOOST AFTERNOON
TEMPERATURES A FEW DEGREES. WARM AND MUGGY OVERNIGHT WEATHER WILL
PERSIST WITH LOWS IN THE 60S AND LOWER 70S.

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY/...
AS OF 1145 AM EDT MONDAY...THE MEDIUM RANGE FCST PICKS UP AT 00Z ON
FRIDAY WITH BROAD UPPER TROFFING OVER THE GREAT LAKES AND THE
REMNANTS OF A WEAK UPPER LOW SPINNING OFF THE SE COAST. HEIGHTS ARE
EXPECTED TO STEADILY LOWER AS THE UPPER TROF DEEPENS CONSIDERABLY
OVER THE WEEKEND AND BECOMES POSITIVELY TILTED AS IT MOVES OVER THE
CWFA. BY THE END OF THE PERIOD ON DAY 7...HEIGHTS SHOULD BEGIN
RISING AS WEAK UPPER RIDGING STARTS TO BUILD IN.

AT THE SFC...WE WILL BE IN AN ACTIVE PATTERN THRU THE WEEKEND WITH A
FAIRLY ROBUST LOOKING SFC RIDGE LIKELY PUSHING INTO THE REGION EARLY
NEXT WEEK AND DRYING/COOLING THINGS OFF BEYOND DAY 7. FRIDAY IS
LOOKING MOSTLY DRY FOR THE UPSTATE AND PIEDMONT WITH A SOLID CHANCE
FOR TSRA OVER THE NC MTS/FOOTHILLS. POPS RAMP UP ON SATURDAY AS THE
MODELS DEVELOP A SFC LOW TO OUR WEST/SW AND PUSH ITS ASSOCIATED
FRONTAL BNDY THRU THE CWFA LATE SAT/EARLY SUN. THERE COULD BE A GOOD
POTENTIAL FOR ORGANIZED TS WITH THIS FROPA BASED ON CURRENT
DEPICTIONS...SO THAT WILL NEED TO BE WATCHED CLOSELY IN THE COMING
DAYS. IN THE WAKE OF THE FRONTAL BNDY...DRIER HIGH PRESSURE WILL
BUILD IN AND CLEAR THINGS OUT. FOR THE TIME BEING...I HAVE HIGH END
CHANCE POPS OVER MOST OF THE CWFA LATE SAT THRU SUN AFTERNOON WITH
VALUES DROPPING ON MONDAY. THE LONG RANGE MODELS ARE IN PRETTY GOOD
AGREEMENT WRT THE TIMING OF THE FROPA...BUT THE EVOLUTION OF THE SFC
LOW DOES NOT MATCH UP VERY WELL AT THIS TIME. TEMPS ARE EXPECTED TO
COOL THRU THE PERIOD WITH HIGHS AROUND NORMAL ON FRI AND VALUES
ABOUT A CATEGORY BELOW NORMAL BY DAY 7.

&&

.AVIATION /21Z MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
AT KCLT...BKN LINE OF CONVECTION WILL MOVE ACROSS THE AIRFIELD BY
21Z AND CONTINUE FOR A COUPLE OF HOURS. WILL ADJUST TAF TO COVER
THIS EVENT. AFTER 23Z...HAVE BACKED OFF ON RESTRICTIONS FOR NOW AS
THERE MAY BE A LULL IN ACTIVITY IN THE WAKE OF THUNDERSTORMS... BUT
AIR MASS RECOVERY COULD BE QUICK AND ADDITIONAL STORMS ARE POSSIBLE
WELL INTO THE EVENING. THIS WILL BE HANDLED IN FUTURE AMENDMENTS.
OTHERWISE...RICH LOW LEVEL MOISTURE WILL REMAIN IN PLACE. CEILING
SHOULD GRADUALLY COME DOWN INTO IFR CATEGORY ACROSS THE PIEDMONT
AFTER MIDNIGHT WITH FOG DEVELOPING TO AT LEAST MVFR CRITERIA.
CONFIDENCE IS HIGH THAT CONDITIONS WILL BE AT LEAST MVFR. EXPECT A
SLOW IMPROVEMENT TO MVFR DURING MID/LATE MORNING TUESDAY. ONCE THE
CEILING LIFTS... RAPID CONVECTIVE DEVELOPMENT WILL TAKE PLACE
AGAIN...EARLY TUESDAY AFTERNOON. WINDS WILL GENERALLY REMAIN S TO SW
THROUGH THE PERIOD AWAY FROM NEARBY STORMS.

ELSEWHERE...CONDITIONS SIMILAR TO KCLT WITH MAINLY VFR OUTSIDE
STORMS AND MVFR/IFR INSIDE NUMEROUS SHOWERS AND STORMS. KAVL THE
EXCEPTION WHERE CONVECTION HAS WANED AS A DRIER MORE STABLE AIR MASS
HAS MOVED IN. EXPECT CONVECTION TO RETURN TO THE MTNS BY EVENING.
THE CONVECTION SHOULD MAXIMIZE IN COVERAGE LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND
EVENING AND THEN WANE LATER THIS EVENING. HOWEVER...EXPECT SOME
SHOWERS TO CONTINUE ALL NIGHT LONG. CEILINGS WILL FALL AFTER SUNSET
INTO THE MVFR CATEGORY AND THEN IFR DURING THE EARLY MORNING HOURS
AT ALL SITES WITH FAIRLY HIGH CONFIDENCE. MORE CONVECTION WILL
DEVELOP BY MIDDAY TUESDAY.

OUTLOOK...DEEP MOISTURE WILL PERSIST ACROSS THE REGION THROUGH AT
LEAST WEDNESDAY. LOW CLOUD/FOG RESTRICTIONS WILL BECOME INCREASINGLY
WIDESPREAD AND PERSISTENT AS SHOWER COVERAGE REMAINS HIGH TUE INTO
WED. GRADUAL DRYING FROM THE WEST IS POSSIBLE THU...BUT MORE LIKELY
ON FRI.

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

.DAY ONE...TONIGHT.

SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE ACROSS THE AREA.
THE MOST LIKELY THREAT WITH THE THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE VERY HEAVY
RAINFALL AND OCCASIONAL CLOUD TO GROUND LIGHTNING STRIKES. IF
MULTIPLE THUNDERSTORMS AFFECT THE SAME LOCATION... ISOLATED FLASH
FLOODING OF STREAMS AND CREEKS COULD RESULT. IN ADDITION... A FEW
THUNDERSTORMS MAY BECOME STRONG ENOUGH TO PRODUCE BRIEF BUT
DAMAGING WIND GUSTS. SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL BECOME LESS
NUMEROUS DURING THE OVERNIGHT HOURS... BUT THE POSSIBILITY OF
ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS WITH HEAVY RAIN WILL PERSIST.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY.

SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL DEVELOP AGAIN TUESDAY THROUGH
WEDNESDAY...AND POSSIBLY INTO THURSDAY. LOCALIZED FLASH FLOODING
IS QUITE POSSIBLE THIS WEEK...BUT UNCERTAINTY REMAINS TOO HIGH TO
DEFINE LOCATIONS THAT MIGHT REQUIRE A FLASH FLOOD WATCH.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

SKYWARN SPOTTERS ARE REQUESTED TO FORWARD ANY REPORTS OF HAIL...
