AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHARLESTON SC
636 PM EST TUE MAR 5 2013

.SYNOPSIS...
A STRONG COLD FRONT WILL SWEEP THROUGH THE REGION TONIGHT AS
DEEPENING LOW PRESSURE MOVES INTO THE MID ATLANTIC STATES. THE LOW
WILL FURTHER INTENSIFY OVER THE NORTHWEST ATLANTIC WEDNESDAY AND
THURSDAY...WHILE HIGH PRESSURE GRADUALLY BUILDS INTO THE AREA
THROUGH THE WEEKEND.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM WEDNESDAY MORNING/...
EARLY TUESDAY EVENING...A STRONG COLD FRONT WAS PUSHING QUICKLY
INTO CENTRAL GA. THIS FRONT WILL PUSH QUICKLY THROUGH THE REGION
THIS EVENING...LIKELY PUSHING OFF THE COAST BY AROUND MIDNIGHT.
STRONG/DEEP LAYER FORCING/SHEAR AND SURFACE BASED LIFTED INDICES
AROUND ZERO SUGGEST THAT THE QLCS WILL CONTINUE TO PROGRESS
QUICKLY ACROSS THE REGION THIS EVENING...PRODUCING A MEASURABLE
RAINFALL FOR LESS THAN 1-2 HOURS AT ANY GIVEN LOCATION. THE QLCS
WILL BE ACCOMPANIED BY A THREAT FOR ISOLATED SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS
WITH DAMAGING WIND GUSTS.

IN THE WAKE OF COLD FROPA...EXPECT A SHARP WIND SHIFT TO THE
W/NW...AND SUSTAINED/FOCUSED POST FROPA PRESSURE RISES WILL EASILY
SUPPORT WIND GUSTS 30-35 MPH...AND WIND GUSTS 40-45 MPH COULD
DEVELOP AND PERSIST INTO THE OVERNIGHT HOURS. WILL CONTINUE TO
MONITOR UPSTREAM TRENDS FOR A POTENTIAL WIND ADVISORY.

MUCH COLDER AIR WILL FLOOD THE REGION OVERNIGHT...AND BY DAYBREAK
TEMPERATURES IN THE UPPER 30S/LOWER 40S AND WIND CHILLS AROUND 30F
WILL BE COMMON.

LAKE WINDS...THE WINDS OVER LAKE MOULTRIE WILL REMAIN ELEVATED
THROUGH TONIGHT DUE TO A CONTINUED TIGHT PRESSURE GRADIENT AND
SUFFICIENT MIXING OF 30 TO 40 KT LOW LVL WINDS. A LAKE WIND
ADVISORY WILL THEREFORE REMAIN IN EFFECT THROUGH WEDNESDAY.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM WEDNESDAY MORNING THROUGH FRIDAY/...
WEDNESDAY...THE INTENSIFYING LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL TRACK OFF THE
MID-ATLANTIC COASTLINE ON WEDNESDAY AS AN UPPER RIDGE AND ITS
ASSOCIATED HIGH PRESSURE SLOWLY BUILD EASTWARD OVER CENTRAL UNITED
STATES. A TIGHT PRESSURE GRADIENT WILL PREVAIL ACROSS THE AREA AS
THE LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM REMAINS JUST TO THE NORTH AND HIGH PRESSURE
BUILDS IN ITS WAKE. IN ADDITION...850MB TEMPERATURES WILL STRUGGLE
TO REACH POSITIVE VALUES WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON AS STRONG COLD AIR
ADVECTION DOMINATES. IN ALL...THIS WILL ALLOW ENHANCED MIXING INTO
THE 30 TO 40 KNOT BOUNDARY LAYER...RESULTING IN WINDY CONDITIONS
THROUGHOUT MUCH OF THE DAY. EXPECT WESTERLY WINDS AROUND 20 MPH
WITH GUSTS NEAR 35 MPH. THERE STILL REMAINS A POTENTIAL FOR A WIND
ADVISORY...BUT LATEST MODEL OUTPUT CONTINUES TO SUGGEST OVERALL
CONDITIONS WILL REMAIN JUST SHY OF ADVISORY LEVEL. THERE COULD BE
SOME LINGERING SCATTERED CLOUD COVERAGE WEDNESDAY MORNING...BUT
TEMPERATURES WILL BE MAINLY AFFECTED BY THE STRONG COLD AIR
ADVECTION. OVERALL...TEMPERATURES WILL REMAIN NEARLY 10 DEGREES
BELOW SEASONAL NORMALS WITH MID 50S EXPECTED ACROSS MOST AREAS. LOW
TEMPERATURES WILL ALSO REFLECT THE COLDER AIR MASS...WITH
TEMPERATURES FALLING INTO THE LOW 30S WELL INLAND TO THE MID/UPPER
30S NEAR THE COAST.

THURSDAY AND FRIDAY...THE UPPER RIDGE AND ITS ASSOCIATED HIGH
PRESSURE WILL CONTINUE TO PRESS TOWARD THE EAST COAST AS THE STRONG
LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM MOVES FURTHER AWAY FROM THE AREA. AS A
RESULT...THE PRESSURE GRADIENT WILL BEGIN TO WEAKEN ON THURSDAY AND
850MB TEMPERATURES WILL CONTINUE TO RECOVER. IN ADDITION...A MUCH
DRIER AIRMASS WILL RESULT IN PLENTY OF SUNSHINE ALLOWING TEMPERATURES
TO CLIMB INTO THE LOW 60S ON THURSDAY. DECENT RADIATIONAL COOLING
CONDITIONS WILL DEVELOP THURSDAY NIGHT ALLOWING LOWS TO DIP INTO
THE MID TO UPPER 30S FOR MOST AREAS...BUT THE OVERALL WARMING
TREND WILL CONTINUE ON FRIDAY AS HIGHS NEAR SEASONAL NORMALS.
OVERALL...EXPECT LOW TO MID 60S ACROSS SOUTHEAST SOUTH CAROLINA ON
FRIDAY...AND NEAR 70 DEGREES CLOSER TO THE ALTAMAHA.

LAKE WINDS...THE WINDS OVER LAKE MOULTRIE WILL REMAIN ELEVATED
THROUGH WEDNESDAY EVENING DUE TO A CONTINUED TIGHT PRESSURE
GRADIENT AND SUFFICIENT MIXING OF 30 TO 40 KT WINDS. AS THERE
REMAINS THE POTENTIAL FOR A WIND ADVISORY TO BE ISSUED...THE LAKE
WIND ADVISORY COULD BE SUPERSEDED...MOST LIKELY DURING THE DAYTIME
HOURS ON WEDNESDAY.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY/...
DRY CONDITIONS WILL PREVAIL THROUGH EARLY NEXT WEEK...AS SURFACE
HIGH PRESSURE AND THE AXIS OF AN UPPER RIDGE MOVE OVER THE EAST
COAST. RISING HEIGHTS ALOFT WILL SUPPORT A STEADY WARMING TREND
THROUGH THE PERIOD...WITH TEMPERATURES REACHING THE UPPER 60S TO
LOWER 70S SATURDAY AND SUNDAY...THEN PEAK SOLIDLY IN THE LOWER
70S FOR MONDAY. MEDIUM RANGE MODEL SOLUTIONS ARE THEN COMING INTO
BETTER AGREEMENT IN INDICATING A COLD FRONT APPROACHING FROM THE
WEST ON TUESDAY...HOWEVER DETAILS IN THE TIMING ARE TOO UNCERTAIN
TO MENTION ANY ASSOCIATED PRECIPITATION THIS FAR IN ADVANCE.

&&

.AVIATION /00Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
A PERIOD OF SHOWERS/FLIGHT RESTRICTIONS APPEARS LIKELY AT BOTH
TERMINALS AS A BAND OF SHOWERS/SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS PRECEDE A
STRONG COLD FRONT THROUGH THE REGION. AHEAD OF THE
FRONT/SHOWERS...SW WINDS WILL GUST TO 20-25 KT AND WILL BE
ACCOMPANIED BY LLWS. IN THE WAKE OF COLD FROPA...WINDS WILL SHIFT
SHARPLY TO THE W/NW AND WILL GUST TO AT LEAST 30-35 KT FOR A FEW
HOURS. WINDS COULD BRIEFLY DIMINISH JUST A BIT TOWARD DAYBREAK
BEFORE INCREASING TO GUST 30-35 KT AS THE MIXED LAYER DEEPENS
WEDNESDAY. VFR EARLY THIS EVENING...THEN AGAIN LATE TONIGHT
THROUGH WEDNESDAY.

EXTENDED AVIATION OUTLOOK...STRONG AND GUSTY SURFACE WINDS WILL
IMPACT THE TERMINALS THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT.

&&

.MARINE...
MAINTAINED ONGOING SCAS/GALE WATCHES AND WARNINGS FOR ALL MARINE
ZONES. PER UPSTREAM WIND TRENDS...WILL CONSIDER UPGRADING TO A
GALE WARNING ON CHARLESTON HARBOR OVERNIGHT.

A STRONG COLD FRONT WILL PUSH THROUGH THE WATERS TONIGHT...AND
SURFACE LOW PRESSURE WILL DEEPEN AND TRACK TOWARD THE MID ATLANTIC
COAST. STRONG LOW LEVEL WINDS WILL PRODUCE DANGEROUS MARINE
CONDITIONS ACROSS THE WATERS TONIGHT. STRONG LOW-LVL JETTING
AHEAD OF THE FRONT WILL SUPPORT WINDS GUSTING NEAR GALE
FORCE...HOWEVER THE RISK FOR SOLID GALES WILL WAIT UNTIL AFTER
MIDNIGHT AS THE COLD FRONT PUSHES OFFSHORE. STRONG COLD AIR
ADVECTION BEHIND THE FRONT WILL SUPPORT WINDS OF 25-30 KT WITH
GUSTS TO 40 KT WITHIN 20 NM OF THE COAST AND 30-35 KT WITH GUSTS
TO 45 KT OVER THE GEORGIA OFFSHORE WATERS. GALE WARNINGS WILL
THEREFORE CONTINUE THROUGH THE OVERNIGHT PERIOD. SOLID SMALL CRAFT
ADVISORY CONDITIONS WILL CONTINUE FOR THE CHS HARBOR TONIGHT WITH
20-25 KT WINDS AND GUSTS UP TO 30 KT POSSIBLE BEHIND THE FRONT.
GIVEN THE COOLER WATERS ALONG THE COAST AND HARBOR...HAVE DELAYED
A GALE WATCH UNTIL WEDNESDAY MORNING WHEN A STRONG WESTERLY WIND
DEVELOPS WITH SFC HEATING OVER LAND. SEAS WILL PEAK 5-8 FT
NEARSHORE WATERS AND 8-11 FT OFFSHORE WATERS LATE.

WEDNESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY...HAZARDOUS MARINE CONDITIONS WILL
PREVAIL THROUGH WEDNESDAY AS A TIGHT PRESSURE GRADIENT REMAINS IN
PLACE BEHIND THE LIFTING LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM OVER THE MID-ATLANTIC
STATES. IN ADDITION...STRONG COLD ADVECTION WILL ENHANCE
MIXING...SUPPORTING GALE FORCE WINDS FOR ALL MARINE ZONES THROUGH
WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON. IN ADDITION...SEAS WILL REMAIN ELEVATED
WEDNESDAY WITH 6 TO 7 FEET NEAR THE 20 NM LINE. HAVE MAINTAINED A
GALE WATCH FOR THE CHARLESTON HARBOR AT THIS POINT AS GUSTS WILL
NEAR 35 KNOTS...BUT OVERALL EXPECT GUSTS TO PREVAIL CLOSER TO 30
KNOTS. THEREAFTER...THE GRADIENT WILL SLOWLY WEAKEN...BUT SMALL
CRAFT HEADLINES WILL BE NEEDED. IN ASSOCIATION WITH DECREASING
WINDS...SEAS WILL SUBSIDE TO 2 TO 4 FEET BY THURSDAY EVENING.
CONDITIONS WILL CONTINUE TO IMPROVE FOR ALL MARINE ZONES THROUGH THE
WEEKEND AS HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS ACROSS THE REGION.

&&

.TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING...
STRONG OFFSHORE WINDS IN WAKE OF THE COLD FRONT TONIGHT WILL
CONTINUE THROUGH WEDNESDAY. THE RESULT WILL BE LARGE AND NEGATIVE
TIDAL DEPARTURES...AS WELL AS A RISK FOR BLOW-OUT TIDES NEAR THE
TIMES OF THE LOW TIDES WEDNESDAY WHEN TIDE LEVELS COULD FALL SOME
1.5 TO 2.0 FT MLLW BELOW PREDICTED LEVELS.

&&

.CHS WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
GA...NONE.
SC...LAKE WIND ADVISORY UNTIL 10 PM EST WEDNESDAY FOR SCZ045.
MARINE...SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY UNTIL MIDNIGHT EST TONIGHT FOR AMZ350-352-
