.SYNOPSIS...
TROPICAL STORM ANDREA WILL MOVE QUICKLY NORTHEAST INLAND FROM THE
COAST TODAY AND AWAY FROM THE REGION TONIGHT. HIGH PRESSURE WILL
BUILD INTO THE REGION FROM THE EAST SATURDAY AND SUNDAY AS A WEAK
TROUGH OF LOW PRESSURE CONTINUES TO THE WEST. A COLD FRONT WILL
APPROACH FROM THE WEST MONDAY AND MOVE INTO THE AREA LATE TUESDAY
INTO WEDNESDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TODAY/...
AS OF 220 AM FRI...TS ANDREA OVER SE GA WILL LIFT QUICKLY NE
INLAND FROM THE CST TODAY. MAIN RAIN BAND WITH LOCALLY VERY HEAVY
SHRA WILL LIFT NE ACROSS REGION THIS MORN. SOME ROTATING CELLS
OVER SE CST IN AREA OF HIGH HELICITY WILL LIFT N THRU THE MORN
AND WILL HAVE TO CLOSELY WATCH RDR FOR POSS BRIEF TORNADO
POTENTIAL MAINLY CST WHERE INSTAB A BIT HIGHER. SATL SHOWS SOME
DRY SLOT WRAPPING INTO ANDREA TO THE S OF MAIN RAIN BAND AND
EXPECT SHRA WL BECOME MORE SCT OR INTERMITTENT LATER TODAY...WL
CONT CATEGORICAL POPS. WL CONT FLOOD WATCH...AS VERY HEAVY
DOWNPOURS A GOOD BET WITH PRECIP WTR VALUES WELL OVER 2 INCHES.
GIVEN DRY GROUND AND LOW STREAM LVLS NOT EXPECTING WIDESPREAD
MAJOR FLOODING ISSUES...MAINLY URBAN AND POOR DRAINAGE. HIGHS
MAINLY LOW 80S WITH MOIST/TROPICAL AIRMASS OVER THE REGION.

&&

.SHORT TERM /TONIGHT/...
AS OF 220 AM FRI...RAIN SHIELD WITH ANDREA WILL LIFT NE AWAY FROM
REGION QUICKLY THIS EVENING AND CONT LIKELY POP EARLY FOR ONLY FAR
NE TIER. WL MAINTAIN CHC POP OVERNIGHT AS WEAK TROFFING CONTS IN
WAKE OF ANDREA WITH PLENTY OF LOW LVL MOISTURE. GUSTY SW WINDS IN
THE EVENING WILL STEADILY DIMINISH OVERNIGHT AS ANDREA MOVES
FURTHER AWAY. LOWS WILL BE MAINLY IN THE UPR 60S TO LOWER 70S WITH
POSS SOME MID 70S BEACHES.

&&

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
AS OF 250 AM FRI...NO SIGNIFICANT CHANGES NEEDED TO PREVIOUS
FORECAST. THE PATTERN FOR THE EXTENDED WILL FEATURE A BROAD
CYCLONIC FLOW ALOFT ACROSS THE EASTERN US WHILE AT THE
SURFACE...ATLANTIC HIGH PRESSURE WILL CIRCULATE WARM AND MOIST AIR
ACROSS THE CAROLINAS WITH A LINGERING TROUGH LOCATED WELL INLAND.
WITH THE LIKELIHOOD OF A FEW LOW AMPLITUDE MID LEVEL DISTURBANCES
MOVING THROUGH ALOFT WE EXPECT THIS TO LEAD TO SCATTERED MAINLY
DIURNAL CONVECTION THROUGH THE WEEKEND. CAN'T RULE OUT A LOW END
SEVERE THREAT WITH THESE STORMS WITH WEAK SHEAR OF 20-25 KT BUT
THE MAIN THREAT WILL BE HEAVY RAINS DUE TO THE HIGH PW VALUES AND
AMPLE CAPE. AT THIS TIME THINK BEST COVERAGE OF CONVECTION WILL BE
SATURDAY AFTERNOON/EVENING.

THE UPPER PATTERN WILL UNDERGO MORE AMPLIFICATION FROM EARLY TO THE
MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK WITH A DEEPER UPPER TROUGH POISED TO MOVE SLOWLY
THROUGH THE AREA. THE ASSOCIATED WEAKENING SURFACE COLD FRONT IS
FORECAST TO APPROACH THE AREA MONDAY THEN MOVE SLOWLY ACROSS THE
REGION TUESDAY PERHAPS LINGERING INTO WEDNESDAY OR THURSDAY.
REGARDLESS OF THE FRONT IT APPEARS THAT THERE WILL BE A GOOD CHANCE
FOR CONVECTION EACH DAY WITH THE EXCEPTION OF WEDNESDAY WHERE
FORECAST HIGHER SURFACE PRESSURE COULD LIMIT COVERAGE. WITH THIS
UNCERTAINTY IN MIND AND DIFFERENCES IN THE GUIDANCE THINK IT'S BEST
TO TAKE A BROAD BRUSHED APPROACH TO THE FORECAST WITH CHANCE POPS
EACH DAY AND NORMAL TEMPERATURES. LATER FORECASTS CAN FINE THE
PRECIPITATION FORECAST WHEN THE TIMING OF THE FRONTS BECOMES MORE
EVIDENT AND CONFIDENCE INCREASES.

&&

.AVIATION /06Z FRIDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
