AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GREENVILLE-SPARTANBURG SC
809 PM EDT THU JUL 4 2013
.SYNOPSIS...
A DEEP UPPER LEVEL TROUGH WILL REMAIN IN PLACE OVER THE MID
MISSISSIPPI RIVER VALLEY THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT...BEFORE GRADUALLY
LIFTING EASTWARD OVER THE WEEKEND. HIGH PRESSURE WILL THEN BUILD
OVER THE SOUTHERN TIER OF THE UNITED STATES NEXT WEEK...WITH A
RETURN TO MORE TYPICAL SUMMERTIME CONDITIONS.
&&
.NEAR TERM /THROUGH FRIDAY/...
AS OF 800 PM...THE PLUME OF MOISTURE AND ASSOCIATED BANDS OF MOD-HVY
RAIN HAS SHIFTED SLIGHTLY WEST TODAY...AND GUIDANCE IN GOOD
AGREEMENT ON THIS TREND CONTINUING OVERNIGHT. SO WHILE A FEW AREAS
OF SHOWERS AND TSTMS STILL POSSIBLE ACRS THE I-77 CORRIDOR...STILL
FEEL OKAY WITH ALLOWING THE FLASH FLOOD WATCH TO EXPIRE THERE.
ELSEWHERE...THE FLOOD THREAT CONTINUES...WITH NUMEROUS WARNINGS AND
ADVISORIES IN EFFECT ATTM. THE CATEORICAL POPS WITH HEAVY RAIN
WORDING STILL ON TRACK FOR TONIGHT.
AS OF 445 PM...A QUICK UPDATE TO THE TEMP/DEWPT AND SKY GRIDS TO
MATCH UP WITH OBS. POPS/WX LOOK ON TRACK...SO LEFT AS IS FOR NOW.
AS OF 300 PM...NOT MUCH HAS CHANGED IN REGARDS TO THE FORECAST OVER
THE NEXT 24 HOURS. SOUTHERLY FLOW WILL PROMOTE CONTINUED SHOWER AND
THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY ACROSS THE ENTIRE REGION. HEAVY RAINFALL LOOKS
TO BE THE MAIN THREAT THROUGH THE PERIOD. RAINFALL AMOUNTS
ADJACENT TO ANY THUNDERSTORMS COULD EXCEED 5 INCHES WHICH WILL ALLOW
FOR FLASH FLOODING CONDITIONS TO PERSIST. THIS FLASH FLOODING
THREAT WILL MAINLY EXIST ACROSS THE HIGHER TERRAINS AND THE
FOOTHILLS DUE TO UPSLOPE FLOW AND MIGRATION OF MOISTURE AXIS TO THE
WEST. OTHERWISE...INCREASING INSTABILITY ACROSS PORTIONS OF THE SC
UPSTATE AND THE NC PIEDMONT WILL ALLOW FOR SOME STRONG TO SEVERE
THUNDERSTORMS WITH DAMAGING WINDS...AND HEAVY RAINFALL BEING THE
MAIN THREATS. DUE TO INCREASING FLOW ALOFT...AND BACKED SURFACE
WINDS...AN ISOLATED TORNADO CANNOT BE RULED OUT. CONDITIONS WILL
NOT IMPROVE MUCH DURING THE OVERNIGHT HOURS AS PLUME OF MOISTURE
REMAINS NEARLY STATIONARY ACROSS THE WESTERN PART OF THE CWFA.
THUS...EXTENDED FLASH FLOOD WATCH THROUGH 00Z SATURDAY ACROSS ALL
ZONES WITH THE ONLY EXCEPTIONS BEING ACROSS PORTIONS OF THE NC
PIEDMONT. TEMPERATURES OVERNIGHT WILL BE NEAR NORMAL FOR MOST SITES.
FOR FRIDAY...EXPECT MUCH OF THE SAME AS THURSDAY WITH CONTINUED
RAINFALL ACROSS THE WESTERN MOST PORTIONS OF THE REGION.
INSTABILITY WILL INCREASE YET AGAIN...HOWEVER CONVECTION SHOULD BE
ON MORE OF A DIURNAL TREND. HIGH TEMPERATURES ON FRIDAY WILL BE
BELOW NORMAL AT ALL LOCATIONS.
&&
.SHORT TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT/...
AS OF 230 PM THURSDAY...THE SLOWLY FILLING UPPER WAVE WILL LIFT NE
ACROSS IL/IN ON SAT AND THEN OH ON SUNDAY. UPPER LEVEL DYNAMICS IN
THE FORM OF WIND DIVERGENCE AND A TRAILING VORTICITY AXIS WILL CROSS
OUR FORECAST AREA ON SUNDAY. UNTIL THEN...PERSISTENT MOIST SRLY LOW
LEVEL FLOW WILL CONTINUE. WILL FOCUS LIKELY POPS IN THE MTNS...AND
TAPER DOWN TO MID RANGE CHANCE ACROSS THE PIEDMONT FOR SAT AFTN.
COVERAGE MAY REBOUND THROUGHOUT THE REGION A BIT ON SUNDAY WITH THE
PASSING UPPER SUPPORT. THE THREAT OF HEAVY RAIN AND ISOLATED FLASH
FLOODING WILL CONTINUE THROUGH THE WEEKEND.
&&
.LONG TERM /MONDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
AS OF 230 PM THURSDAY...A FLAT RIDGE WILL BUILD OVER THE SRN TIER OF
THE CONUS MON THROUGH WED. SFC HIGH PRES WILL DOMINATE EXCEPT FOR A
DEVELOPING LEE TROUGH OVER THE PIEDMONT. MID LEVEL DRYING IS
INDICATED...BUT LOW LEVELS WILL REMAIN MOIST THROUGH THE PERIOD. SFC
TO 850 MB FLOW WILL VEER MORE WESTERLY TO CURB PRECIPITATION CHANCES
AND PRODUCE MORE OF A DIURNAL TREND IN POPS. A COLD FRONT WILL
APPROACH THE AREA FROM THE NW ON THU. EXPECT MAX TEMPS TO RECOVER TO
NEAR SUMMERTIME NORMALS.
&&
.AVIATION /00Z FRIDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
AT KCLT...ANOTHER BAND OF SHRA/TSRA IS APPROACHING THE TERMINAL FROM
THE SOUTH...AND SHUD CROSS THE AREA IN THE 00-03Z TIME FRAME.
GUIDANCE GENERALLY AGREES THAT BEHIND THAT BAND...CONVECTION SHUD
BECOME MORE CONFINED TO THE UPSLOPE AREAS WELL WEST OF KCLT. FROM
THERE...ISOLD SHRA MAY REMAIN IN THE AREA...BUT WILL REMOVE MENTION
AFTER 04Z. CONFIDENCE IS FAIRLY HIGH THAT STRATUS SHUD DEVELOP AGAIN
OVERNIGHT...WITH A PERIOD OF IFR BY DAYBREAK EXPECTED. A LITTLE BIT
DRIER AIR MAY PUSH IN FROM THE EAST...BUT STILL EXPECT DECENT
COVERAGE OF SHRA/TSRA AGAIN FRIDAY AFTN. WILL MAKE PROB30 FOR
18-00Z. WINDS WILL REMAIN GENERALLY S/SE...WITH POTENTIAL FOR A GUST
FRONT TO CROSS THE AREA AROUND 0030Z...THAT COULD BRIEFLY SHIFT
WINDS TO W/SW.
ELSEWHERE...EXPECTING WIDESPREAD SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY TO
CONTINUE THROUGH MUCH OF THE TAF PERIOD...ESPECIALLY ACROSS THE SC
SITES. HAVE TEMPO GROUPS AT ALL SITES FOR MVFR/IFR TSRA THIS
EVENING...THEN CARRIED MVFR CIGS THROUGH THE MORNING WITH EITHER
VCTS...SHRA...OR BOTH. AS THE LOWER LEVELS CONTINUE TO MOISTEN
FURTHER THROUGHOUT THE EVENING...LOOKING FOR CIGS TO LOWER TO IFR
LEVELS AT ALL SITES. WINDS WILL REMAIN SOUTHERLY AND AROUND
8-10KTS. FRIDAY AFTN...ANOTHER ROUND OF WIDESPREAD/NUMEROUS
SHRA/TSRA EXPECTED...ESP IN THE NC MTNS. WILL MAKE PROB30 FOR TSRA
FOR 18-00Z.
OUTLOOK...VERY MOIST AND UNSETTLED CONDITIONS WILL REMAIN OVER THE
REGION INTO SATURDAY...WITH PERIODS OF SHRA/TSRA. STRATUS AND FOG IS
POSSIBLE EACH NIGHT ACROSS THE REGION. GRADUAL IMPROVEMENT IS
EXPECTED FROM THE EAST THIS WEEKEND AS A BERMUDA HIGH STRENGTHENS
ACROSS THE REGION...YIELDING MAINLY DIURNAL SHRA/TSRA. MORNING FOG
WILL FAVOR THE MTN VALLEYS.
