AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHARLESTON SC
911 PM EST WED JAN 30 2013

.SYNOPSIS...
BREEZY CONDITIONS WILL REMAIN OVER THE AREA BEFORE A COLD FRONT
PUSHES THROUGH THE REGION TONIGHT. HIGH PRESSURE WILL BRIEFLY BUILD
INTO THE REGION THURSDAY BEFORE A DRY COLD FRONT CROSSES ON
FRIDAY. MORE HIGH PRESSURE WILL MOVE IN FOR THE WEEKEND AND WILL
LINGER INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM THURSDAY MORNING/...
A STRONG SOUTHERLY FLOW PERSISTS WITHIN THE WARM SECTOR AHEAD OF A
COLD FRONT APPROACHING FROM THE WEST. VERY IMPRESSIVE WIND FIELDS
ALOFT WILL CONTINUE TO MIX TO THE SURFACE THROUGH MUCH OF THIS
EVENING...WITH GUSTS UPWARDS OF 30-40 MPH EXPECTED TO PERSIST.
ALTHOUGH WINDS WILL LIKELY REMAIN JUST SHY OF WIND ADVISORY
CRITERIA IN MOST PLACES...WILL LEAVE THE ADVISORY IN EFFECT UNTIL
THE FRONT PASSES GIVEN THE POTENTIAL FOR HIGHER GUSTS TO REDEVELOP
AS MIXING DEEPENS AHEAD OF THE FRONT.

A LINE OF CONVECTION WILL CONTINUE TO TRACK TOWARD THE COAST THROUGH
THE REST OF THE EVENING BEFORE PUSHING OFFSHORE DURING THE EARLY
OVERNIGHT HOURS. POPS WILL REMAIN 90-100 PERCENT. STRONG DYNAMICAL
FORCING WILL ACCOMPANY THE FRONT AS CROSSES THE AREA. 0-6 KM SHEAR
BETWEEN 60-80 KNOTS ALONG WITH FAVORABLE UPPER LVL DIVERGENCE FROM
A 150 KT JET AND LIFT FROM A 70-90 KT LOW LVL JET OVER THE
SOUTHEAST...SUGGESTS THE POSSIBILITY OF STRONG WINDS WITH ANY
CONVECTIVE ACTIVITY ALONG OR NEAR THE ADVANCING COLD FRONT THROUGH
MIDNIGHT.

MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES REMAIN POOR FOR STRONG CONVECTION...THUS
CHANCES OF SEVERE WEATHER WILL BE LARGELY DEPENDENT ON LOW LEVEL
INSTABILITY. THERE WILL BE A THREAT OF THUNDERSTORMS CAPABLE OF
PRODUCING DAMAGING WIND GUSTS AND POSSIBLY AN ISOLATED TORNADO
OVER THE AREA THROUGH ABOUT 1 AM...AND A TORNADO WATCH IS IN
EFFECT FOR ALL AREAS. HOWEVER...GIVEN THE TIMING OF THE
FRONT...THE GENERAL CONSENSUS IS THAT LOW LEVEL INSTABILITY WILL
DECREASE FURTHER WITH DIURNAL HEAT LOSS THIS EVENING WELL BEFORE
THE FRONT REACHES THE COAST.

ONCE THE COLD FRONT SWEEPS THROUGH THE AREA AROUND OR SHORTLY
AFTER MIDNIGHT...THE THREAT OF ANY SEVERE WEATHER WILL END. MOST
AREAS SHOULD SEE PRECIP FOR ROUGHLY A 1-2 HOUR PERIOD AS THE FRONT
ADVANCES QUICKLY EAST.

TEMPERATURES COULD RISE A FEW DEGREES JUST AHEAD OF THE FRONT WITH
THE STRONG WARM AIR ADVECTION. THEN...COOL AND DRY HIGH PRESSURE WILL
FOLLOW BEHIND THE FRONT AFTER MIDNIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY MORNING.
OVERNIGHT LOWS WILL RANGE IN THE MID 40S INLAND TO LOW 50S ALONG
THE COAST.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM THURSDAY MORNING THROUGH SATURDAY/...
THURSDAY AND THURSDAY NIGHT...THE EASTERN CONUS WILL REMAIN UNDER
THE INFLUENCE OF THE LONGWAVE TROUGH ALOFT AS THE COLD FRONT PUSHES
WELL OFFSHORE. HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE NORTHERN GULF OF MEXICO WILL
ATTEMPT TO NOSE IN FROM THE SOUTHWEST DURING THE DAY BUT WILL
EVENTUALLY BE THWARTED BY A FAST MOVING COLD FRONT APPROACHING FROM
THE NORTHWEST. DEEP DRY AIR WILL MOVE IN THROUGH THE DAY LEAVING
SKIES SUNNY. GOOD COLD ADVECTION AND ELEVATED LOW LEVEL FLOW WILL
RESULT IN ANOTHER BREEZY DAY WITH GUSTS IN THE 25 MPH RANGE LATE
MORNING THROUGH THE AFTERNOON. TEMPS WILL BE MUCH COOLER WITH HIGHS
STRUGGLING TO REACH THE UPPER 50S AND LOWS FALLING INTO THE LOW TO
MID 30S.

FRIDAY THROUGH SATURDAY...THE LARGER SCALE LONGWAVE TROUGH WILL
CONTINUE OVER THE EASTERN CONUS WITH THE PRIMARY SHORTWAVE PASSING
BY TO THE NORTH ON FRIDAY. A DRY COLD FRONT WILL QUICKLY MOVE ACROSS
THE FORECAST AREA EARLY FRIDAY AND A LARGE AREA OF HIGH PRESSURE
WILL QUICKLY BUILD IN THROUGH SATURDAY. THE FRIDAY COLD FRONT WILL
BRING A REINFORCING SHOT OF COOL AIR RESULTING IN TEMPS IN THE UPPER
50S TO NEAR 60 EACH DAY. FRIDAY NIGHT WILL BE COLD AS GOOD
RADIATIONAL COOLING CONDITIONS SET UP...RESULTING IN LOWS IN THE MID
TO UPPER 20S AWAY FROM THE BEACHES. WITH THE PASSAGE OF THE FRONT ON
FRIDAY ANOTHER BREEZY LATE MORNING/AFTERNOON PERIOD IS EXPECTED.

&&

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
HIGH PRESSURE WILL QUICKLY REBUILD BEHIND A DEPARTING SHORTWAVE
AND WEAK FRONT LATE SATURDAY INTO SUNDAY...THEN STEADILY SHIFT INTO
THE ATLANTIC BY MONDAY. YET ANOTHER SHORTWAVE WILL SLIP EASTWARD
WITHIN RATHER PROGRESSIVE FLOW ALOFT LATE MONDAY INTO
TUESDAY. THE ASSOCIATED WAVE OF LOW PRESSURE AND FRONT WILL LACK A
TAP INTO DEEP MOISTURE...THUS RAIN CHANCES WILL REMAIN BELOW 15
PERCENT. SINCE HIGH PRESSURE IS EXPECTED TO FOLLOW BEHIND THESE
FEATURES FOR MID WEEK...DRY WEATHER APPEARS LIKELY THROUGH THE
EXTENDED PERIOD. HIGH TEMPERATURES WILL REACH THE LOWER 60S EACH
AFTERNOON...WITH LOWS FALLING INTO THE UPPER 30S TO AROUND 40
DEGREES.

&&

.AVIATION /02Z THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
A BAND OF SHOWERS WILL PASS THROUGH THE TERMINALS LATE THIS
EVENING AHEAD OF A WELL DEFINED FRONTAL PASSAGE WHICH SHOULD OCCUR
BETWEEN 05Z-07Z. THERE MAY BE A BRIEF PERIOD OF MVFR CONDITIONS
WITH THE PRE-FRONTAL SHOWERS BUT WE THINK THE MAIN STORY TONIGHT
WILL CONTINUE TO BE THE STRENGTH OF THE SURFACE WINDS. VERY STRONG
LOW LEVEL WIND FIELDS WILL MAINTAIN GUSTS OF 30-35 KT AT KCHS AND 25-30
KT AT KSAV THROUGH THIS EVENING. ONCE THE FRONT MOVES
THROUGH...WINDS ALOFT WILL DIMINISH BUT STRONG COLD AIR ADVECTION
WILL KEEP GUSTS AS HIGH AS 25-30 KT AT TIMES THROUGH MUCH OF
THURSDAY. DESPITE THE STRONG GUSTS AT THE SURFACE...A BRIEF PERIOD OF LOW
LEVEL WIND SHEAR HAS BEEN ADDED TO THE KCHS TAF FROM 03-07Z WITH
WINDS AT 2K FT OVER SOUTHEAST SOUTH CAROLINA EXPECTED TO INCREASE
TO AROUND 60 KT.

EXTENDED AVIATION OUTLOOK...VFR.

&&

.MARINE...
CONDITIONS WILL DETERIORATE THIS EVENING AS A COLD FRONT DRAWS
CLOSER TO THE AREA AND THE PRESSURE GRADIENT STRENGTHENS OVER ALL
COASTAL WATERS. A COMPLEX MARINE FORECAST SCENARIO REMAINS THROUGH
TONIGHT WITH A COOL SHELF WATERS ALONG THE SOUTHEAST COAST. WINDS
WILL HAVE A TOUGH TIME MIXING DOWN WHERE SEA SURFACE TEMPS ARE IN
THE MID 50S BUT WILL HAVE AN EASIER TIME MIXING CLOSER TO THE GULF
STREAM WELL OFF THE GEORGIA COAST.

WITH THIS IN MIND...A SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY WILL REMAIN IN EFFECT FOR
NEARSHORE WATERS SOUTH OF CHARLESTON AND INTO SOUTHEAST GEORGIA.
THERE IS CONCERN ALONG THE LAND/SEA INTERFACE AND THE INTRACOASTAL
WATERS IN SOUTH CAROLINA THIS EVENING...THUS HAVE MAINTAINED GALE
WARNINGS FOR THE HARBOR AND THE CHARLESTON COUNTY WATERS. A GALE
WARNING WILL ALSO REMAIN IN EFFECT FOR WATERS BEYOND 20 NM IN
GEORGIA. WINDS WILL CONTINUE TO INCREASE THROUGH THIS EVENING AS
1000 MB GEOSTROPHIC FLOW IS MAXIMIZED IN THE 50-55 KT RANGE. PERIODS
OF 35 KT WINDS ARE ANTICIPATED WHERE THE GALE WARNING IS IN EFFECT TONIGHT.
SEAS SHOULD BUILD TO 7-10 FT THROUGH TONIGHT...HIGHEST BEYOND 20 NM
OFF THE GEORGIA COAST. A PERIOD OF SHOWERS AND/OR THUNDERSTORMS
ARE POSSIBLE WITH A COLD FRONT PUSHING OVER THE WATERS LATE
TONIGHT. SOUTHERLY WINDS WILL THEN VEER AND BECOME WESTERLY AS A
COLD FRONT MOVES WELL INTO THE WESTERN ATLANTIC.

THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY...MARINE CONDITIONS WILL REMAIN QUITE NASTY
IN THE WAKE OF THE DEPARTING COLD FRONT THROUGH MUCH OF THE DAY ON
THURSDAY. ALTHOUGH GUSTS TO GALE FORCE WILL LIKELY BE OVER...SOLID
SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY CRITERIA WILL CONTINUE FOR ALL WATERS.
CONDITIONS WILL REMAIN ELEVATED NEAR SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY CRITERIA
THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT BEFORE ANOTHER SURGE LATE THURSDAY
NIGHT/FRIDAY MORNING ASSOCIATED WITH A PASSING COLD FRONT. HIGH
PRESSURE WILL THEN BUILD DURING THE EARLY WEEKEND AND ALLOW
CONDITIONS TO FALL BELOW CRITERIA SATURDAY. YET ANOTHER DRY FRONT
COULD SUPPORT A BRIEF SURGE IN OFFSHORE FLOW SUNDAY.
