AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GREENVILLE-SPARTANBURG SC
242 PM EST TUE MAR 5 2013

.SYNOPSIS...
A LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL MOVE ACROSS THE AREA TONIGHT AND
EARLY WEDNESDAY BRINGING RAIN AND SNOW SHOWERS TO THE WESTERN
CAROLINAS AND NORTHEAST GEORGIA. DRIER HIGH PRESSURE WILL RETURN IN
ITS WAKE AND LINGER THROUGH THE WEEKEND.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
AS OF 225 PM EST...A COMPLICATED WX PATTERN IS ON STORE OVER THE
PERIOD. THE FIRST ITEM OF CONCERN WILL BE THE POTENTIAL FOR STRONG
TO SVR STORMS ACROSS THE SRN ZONES THIS EVENING. MODEL SOUNDING
CONTINUE TO SHOW A DESTABILIZED ATMOS BY 00Z ACROSS NE GA AND INTO
THE UPSTATE...SHIFTING EAST PAST THE I77 COORIDOOR BY MIDNIGHT. THIS
WILL BE ACCOMPANIED BY A 50+ KT LLVL JET AND A GOOD AMOUNT OF SHEAR.
WITH THE CLOUDS CLEARING OVER THE WARM SECTOR THIS AFTERNOON...A
DECENT AMOUNT SBCAPE WILL LIKELY BE REALIZED AS THE SFC FRONT NEARS
THE AREA. SO...WILL ANTICIPATE SOME STRONGER CONVECTION MOVING INTO
NE GA AROUND 22Z OR SO....A FEW OF THESE COULD FORM ORGANIZED LINES
OF POTENTIALLY SEVERE CELLS PRODUCING STRONG TO DAMAGING WINDS AS
THE SYSTEM MOVES EAST.

THE NEXT CONCERN WILL BE THE WINTER STORM SNOWFALL ACROSS THE NC
MTNS. THE UPPER LOW AND SFC FEATURE WILL MAXIMIZE DEEP LAYERED LIFT
BTW 00Z-06Z TONIGHT. WITH COPIOUS AMOUNTS OF MOISTURE UPSTREAM THIS
TIMEFRAME SHOULD SEE THE HIGHEST SNOWFALL RATES AFT 03Z WHEN H85
TEMPS DROP TO -6C AND QUICKLY CHANGE RAIN TO SNOWFALL. H85
TEMPERATURES CONTINUE TO DROP TO AROUND -10C THROUGH 12Z AND THIS
WILL INCREASE SF RATIOS. LLVL WINDS ARE NOT VERY FAVORABLE BEING
W/LY...BUT ENOUGH MECH LIFT WILL REMAIN AFTER THE UPPER DYNAMICS
SHIFT EAST TO MAINTAIN A CONTINUED UPSLOPE SN EVENT DURING THE DAY
WEDNESDAY. TERRAIN FLOW SHIFTS DISTINCTLY NW/LY AROUND 15Z AND THIS
WILL AIDE IN CONTINUED SNOWFALL. SO...THE WINTER STORM WARNING WILL
CONTINUE TO MENTION 24 HR WARNING LEVEL SNOW OVER THE WRN MOST
MTNS.

THE NEXT THREAT WILL BE THE STRAIGHT LINE WINDS. CROSS SECTIONS AND
SOUNDINGS INDICATE A VERY STRONG LLJ TRAVERSING THE AREA TONIGHT AND
AND GOOD CAA DOWNWARD MOMENTUM MIXING DURING THE DAY WED. HIGH WIND
MENTION IS ALREADY INCLUDED WSW/S...AND A NPW FOR THE HIGHER TERRAIN
OF THE NRN FOOTHILLS IS IN PLACE THROUGH TOMORROW...AND HAVE ADDED A
NEW NPW FOR ADVISORY LEVEL WIND ACROSS ALL OTHER ZONES BEGINNING
TOMORROW MORNING AROUND DAY BREAK AND CONTINUING TILL MIDNIGHT.

MIN TEMPS WILL DROP BELOW FREEZING MTNS...AND NEAR FREEZING
ELSEWHERE. THE BETTER NON/MTN MOISTURE TRANSPORT WILL BE ACROSS THE
NC FOOTHILLS AND PIEDMONT TONIGHT AND THIS SHOULD BE ENOUGH TO
ENABLE A MIX OF SN/RA AFT MIDNIGHT THROUGH DAYBREAK. MAX TEMPS WED
WILL BE SEVERAL DEGREES BELOW NORMAL IN A CAA NW/LY REGIME.

&&

.SHORT TERM /WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY/...
AS OF 1 PM TUESDAY...NORTHWEST FLOW ALOFT WILL DOMINATE THE SHORT
RANGE PERIOD AS A CUTOFF UPPER LOW OFF THE EAST COAST IS BLOCKED
FROM ESCAPE TO THE EAST. ANOTHER UPPER LOW/SHORT WAVE WILL BE
ASSIMILATED THURSDAY NIGHT AND FRIDAY...BUT THIS WILL MOVE PAST WELL
TO OUR NORTHEAST. THUS...FOR THE MOST PART...WE WILL REMAIN UNDER
THE INFLUENCE OF COLD HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING IN FROM THE NORTHWEST
THROUGH FRIDAY. THE PRODUCTION OF SNOW ALONG THE TN BORDER WILL
CONTINUE WEDNESDAY NIGHT AS MOISTURE MOVES DOWN FROM THE NW...BUT
THIS SHOULD WANE ON THURSDAY MORNING AS THE MOISTURE PULLS OUT.
PRECIP CHANCES START OUT LIKELY ON THE TN BORDER WEDNESDAY EVE AND
THEN TAPER OFF FROM THERE...ENDING BY MIDDAY ON THURSDAY. IT STILL
LOOKS LIKE THERE IS THE POTENTIAL FOR ANOTHER INCH OR TWO WEDNESDAY
NIGHT...SO THE WARNING CONTINUATION THROUGH SUNRISE THURSDAY LOOKS
TO BE RIGHT ON TRACK. THIS ACTIVITY IS NOT EXPECTED TO MAKE IT EAST
OF THE BLUE RIDGE. TEMPERATURES SHOULD MODERATE THROUGH THE
PERIOD...WITH HIGHS THURSDAY ABOUT FIVE DEGREES WARMER THAN
WEDNESDAY...THEN ANOTHER CATEGORY OR SO WARMER AGAIN ON FRIDAY. LOW
TEMPS WILL ALSO SHOW A MODERATING TREND...ALTHO NOT AS PRONOUNCED.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY/...
AS OF 230 PM EST TUESDAY...THE LATEST MODELS AGREE THAT NORTHWEST
FLOW ALOFT FRI NIGHT ACROSS THE REGION WILL GRADUALLY GIVE WAY TO
UPPER RIDGING SAT WITH CANADIAN SURFACE HIGH BUILDING IN FROM THE
NORTH. THE UPPER RIDGE AXIS IS PROGGED TO CROSS THE FORECAST AREA
SUN WITH THE CENTER OF CANADIAN HIGH SHIFTING OFFSHORE. THE RESULT
WILL BE MOSTLY DRY CONDITIONS WITH SEASONABLY WARM DAYTIME
TEMPERATURES FRI THROUGH SUN.

H5 HEIGHTS WILL BEGIN TO DECREASE OVER THE AREA SUN NIGHT AS THE
RIDGE AXIS MOVES OFFSHORE AND A BROAD UPPER LEVEL LOW PRESSURE
TROUGH APPROACHES FROM THE CENTRAL CONUS. THE MEDIUM RANGE MODELS
REVEAL DIFFERENT SOLUTIONS WITH REGARD TO THE TRACK/TIMING OF THIS
TROUGH MON THROUGH TUESDAY. THE SLOWER ECMWF SUGGEST THAT A CLOSED
H5 LOW OVER TX/OK PANHANDLE REGION MON WILL TRACK EASTWARD TOWARD
THE REGION REACHING OUR WESTERN ZONES BY 12Z WED WHILE THE GFS LIFTS
THE LOW INTO THE GREAT LAKES REGION BY 00Z TUE WITH POSITIVELY
TILTED TROUGH AXIS AND ASSOCIATED COLD FRONT CROSSING THE REGION
AROUND 12Z TUE. I USED GFS/ECMWF BLEND WHICH IS FAVORED BY THE HPC
MON/TUE WITH THE FROPA OCCURRING OVER THE REGION LATE MON INTO EARLY
TUE. DUE TO THE UNCERTAINTY...POPS HAVE BEEN CAPPED AT 30/40 PERCENT
DURING THIS PERIOD. ALTHOUGH MODELS SHOW STRONG LOW LEVEL WIND SHEAR
OVER THE AREA...SEVERE WEATHER IS NOT ANTICIPATED DURING THE FROPA
AT THIS TIME DUE TO THE LACK OF INSTABILITY. TEMPS WILL STAY NEAR
NORMAL RANGE THROUGH DAY 7.

&&

.AVIATION /20Z TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
AT KCLT...UNEXPECTED CLEARING SKIES ARE MAKING HEADWAY TOWARD THE
TERMINAL AND THIS WILL BE METWATCHED FOR A PROBABLE AMD TO VFR OVER
THE NEXT COUPLE HRS. POPS HAVE BEEN ADJ DOWN AS WELL WITH -SHRA OR
DEEPER CONVECTION NOT ANTICIPATED TILL 20Z. THE TIMING OF THIS IS
ALSO SUSPECT AND WILL NEED TO BE MONITORED. A STRONG LLVL JET WILL
CROSS THE TERMINAL AFT 00Z AND THERE COULD BE SOME WS ISSUES NOT
ASSOCIATED WITH TSTMS OR TALL CONVECTION. AFTER FROPA ARD 03Z...SFC
GUSTS WILL PICK UP AND REMAIN THROUGH THE END OF THE TAF PERIOD. VFR
CIGS RETURN POST FROPA.

AT KAVL...MVFR CIGS WILL PERSIST THROUGH MOST OF THE PERIOD AS COLD
FRONT APPROACHES FROM THE WEST. FROPA IS AFT 00Z...BUT MOIST FLOW UP
THE FRENCH BROAD VALLEY WILL ENABLE LOW CIGS. A RETURN TO VFR IS
EXPECT AFT 11Z WITH LLVL UPSTREAM MOISTURE WANING. MODERATE SFC WIND
GUSTS WILL DEVELOP AFT FROPA AS WELL AND REMAIN THROUGH THE TAF
PERIOD.

ELSEWHERE...A LARGE AREA OF DRYING HAS DEVELOPED IN THE WARM SECTOR
AND EXPECT KAND TO REMAIN VFR TILL PERIODS OF CONVECTION APPROACHE
AFT 20Z. KGSP AND KGMU REMAIN RIGHT ON THE BORDER OF THE SCT
CLOUDS...BUT WILL KEEP MVFR FOR NOW BASED ON VIS SAT LOOP. A 3 HR
TEMPO THUNDER WAS INCLUDED AT KAND BEGINNING AT 00Z WITH SBCAPE
VALUES APPROACHING 400 J/KG BY THAT TIME. FROPA WILL OCCUR AND CIGS
SHOULD RETURN TO VFR AT ALL SITES AFT 04Z. WINDS WILL RESPOND TO A
STRONG P/GRAD BEHIND THE FRONT AND DOWNWARD MIXING AND ENABLE
MODERATE GUSTS THROUGH THE PERIOD.

OUTLOOK...WINDY NW FLOW CONDITIONS WILL PERSIST WED INTO WED NIGHT
AS STRONG LOW PRES PULLS AWAY OFF THE MID ATLANTIC COAST. LINGERING
RESTRICTIONS AND NEARBY SHSN WILL CONTINUE TO IMPACT KAVL THROUGH
WED. STRONG DRY RIDGING WILL THEN DEVELOP THU THROUGH THE WEEKEND.
