AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHARLESTON SC
404 PM EDT SUN MAY 25 2014

.SYNOPSIS...
ATLANTIC HIGH PRESSURE WILL PREVAIL THROUGH THE MIDDLE OF THE WEEK.
A WEAK BACKDOOR COLD FRONT IS EXPECTED TO MOVE INTO THE AREA LATE
WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY. THIS FRONT WILL LIKELY BECOME STATIONARY
OVER THE REGION THROUGH THE END OF THE WEEK BEFORE DISSIPATING.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM MONDAY MORNING/...
THE UPPER RIDGE AXIS REMAINS CENTERED ACROSS MS/AL WHILE A SERIES
OF WEAK SHORTWAVE DISTURBANCES DROP SOUTHEAST THROUGH SOUTHERN SC.
TEMPS HAVE WARMED INTO THE UPPER 80S IN SOUTHEAST GA WITH
DEWPOINTS IN THE UPPER 60S TO NEAR 70. SPC MESOANALYSIS SHOWS AN
AXIS OF GREATER THAN 3000 J/KG SURFACE-BASED CAPE IN THESE
SOUTHEAST GA ZONES. MEANWHILE ACROSS SOUTHERN SC THE DEWPOINTS
MIXED INTO THE LOWER 60S EARLIER THIS AFTERNOON AND TEMPS HAVE
ONLY MADE IT INTO THE LOWER TO MIDDLE 80S. SFC BASED INSTABILITY
IS THEREFORE QUITE A BIT LOWER ACROSS OUR NORTHERN ZONES.

THE VISIBLE SATELLITE LOOP OVER THE LAST COUPLE OF HOURS TELLS A
LOT ABOUT HOW THINGS WILL LIKELY UNFOLD FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE
AFTERNOON. ALTHOUGH THE UPPER VORT ENERGY WILL MAINLY AFFECT
SOUTHEAST SC...THE STUNTED CU FIELD AND SEA BREEZE NOW WELL INLAND
INDICATES THE CONVECTIVE POTENTIAL IS DIMINISHING UP THIS WAY.
MEANWHILE...QUITE A BIT OF TOWERING CU ACROSS SOUTHEAST GA AND
INCREASING SINGLE AND MULTI-CELLULAR CONVECTION SPELLS AN INCREASE
IN COVERAGE THROUGH THE AFTERNOON. THERE ARE MYRIAD BOUNDARIES
SHOWING UP ON SATELLITE AND RADAR...ALL OF WHICH COULD HELP
TRIGGER NEW CONVECTIVE UPDRAFTS AS THE AFTERNOON WEARS ON.
NEVERTHELESS...THE LACK OF MUCH SYNOPTIC SCALE FORCING SHOULD
GENERALLY LIMIT CONVECTIVE COVERAGE THIS AFTERNOON SO WE HAVE NO
HIGHER THAN CHANCE POPS THROUGH EARLY EVENING.

ISOLATED SEVERE TSTMS STILL POSSIBLE GIVEN THE STRONG INSTABILITY
AND FAIRLY COLD TEMPS ALOFT. BASED ON UPSTREAM REPORTS...BOTH
LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING WINDS WILL BE POSSIBLE.

CONVECTION SHOULD DIE OFF LATER THIS EVENING WITH THE LOSS OF
DIURNAL HEATING. HOWEVER WITH CONTINUED WEAK VORTICITY ENERGY
ROTATING THROUGH SOUTHEAST SC OVERNIGHT...AN ISOLATED SHOWER
CANNOT BE RULED OUT AT ANY POINT. THOUGH THE LOW-LEVEL CLOUDS WILL
MAINLY DISSIPATE THIS EVENING...CONSIDERABLE MID AND HIGH
CLOUDINESS WILL PERSIST. THIS WILL PREVENT TEMPS FROM DROPPING
MUCH LOWER THAN THE MID/UPPER 60S.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM MONDAY MORNING THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
MONDAY AND MONDAY NIGHT...A MID AND UPPER LEVEL RIDGE WILL ADVANCE
TOWARD THE REGION FROM THE WEST WHILE SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE PREVAILS
OVER THE WESTERN ATLANTIC. THERE IS ALSO SOME INDICATION THAT A VERY
WEAK LEE-SIDE TROUGH COULD BEGIN FORMING INLAND. ISOLATED TO
SCATTERED CONVECTION IS EXPECTED TO DEVELOP IN THE AFTERNOON...WITH
THE GREATEST COVERAGE INLAND...ESPECIALLY ACROSS INTERIOR SOUTHEAST
GEORGIA. THERE IS THE POTENTIAL FOR AT LEAST ISOLATED STRONG TO
MODERATELY SEVERE PULSE-TYPE THUNDERSTORMS...MAINLY ACROSS INLAND
SOUTHEAST GEORGIA WHERE CAPE VALUES ARE FORECAST TO REACH AS HIGH AS
1500-2500 J/KG WITH LI/S DOWN TO -6 OR -7. THE CONVECTION SHOULD
BEGIN TO DIMINISH IN COVERAGE IN THE EVENING WITH THE LOSS OF
DAYTIME HEATING...BUT SEVERAL MODELS SHOW AT LEAST ISOLATED
CONVECTION LASTING WELL INTO THE NIGHT ALONG LINGERING BOUNDARIES.
TEMPERATURES SHOULD WARM TO HIGHS IN THE MID TO UPPER 80S AWAY FROM
THE IMMEDIATE COAST...WITH LOWS MONDAY NIGHT GENERALLY MILD IN THE
UPPER 60S GIVEN THE POTENTIAL FOR AT LEAST HIGH LEVEL CLOUDS.

TUESDAY AND TUESDAY NIGHT...THE MID AND UPPER LEVEL RIDGE WILL SHIFT
OVER THE SOUTHEAST U.S. AS SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE REMAINS OVER THE
ATLANTIC. A LEE SIDE TROUGH BECOMES BETTER DEFINED INLAND AS WELL.
ISOLATED CONVECTION APPEARS TO DEVELOP ACROSS THE COASTAL CORRIDOR
ALONG AND JUST AHEAD OF THE SEA BREEZE AROUND MIDDAY...THEN BECOME
SCATTERED IN COVERAGE DURING THE AFTERNOON. THE LEE SIDE TROUGH
COULD SHIFT INTO THE AREA TUESDAY NIGHT...AND MAINTAIN ISOLATED TO
SCATTERED CONVECTION ACROSS THE AREA. THE POTENTIAL FOR PULSE STRONG
TO ISOLATED SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS EXISTS TUESDAY AFTERNOON INTO
TUESDAY EVENING. HIGHS ARE FORECAST TO BE IN THE UPPER 80S TO AROUND
90 AWAY FROM THE IMMEDIATE COAST...WITH LOWS IN THE UPPER 60S TO
NEAR 70 AT NIGHT.

WEDNESDAY...RIDGING ALOFT WILL FLATTEN...ALLOWING A BACK DOOR COLD
FRONT TO DROP TOWARD THE AREA FROM THE NORTH. SCATTERED SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED ACROSS THE AREA...SUPPORTED BY BOTH THE
SEA BREEZE AND ADVANCING BACKDOOR COLD FRONT. A FEW THUNDERSTORMS
COULD BECOME STRONG OR SEVERE IN THE AFTERNOON...ESPECIALLY ACROSS
SOUTHEAST SC WHERE GREATER INSTABILITY APPEARS TO DEVELOP AHEAD OF
THE FRONT. A DOWNSLOPE FLOW JUST ABOVE THE SURFACE WILL KEEP THE SEA
BREEZE PINNED CLOSER TO THE COAST AND SUPPORT BETTER HEATING INLAND
WITH HIGHS GENERALLY IN THE LOWER 90S AWAY FROM THE BEACHES.

&&

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY/...
THE LARGE SCALE PATTERN WILL FEATURE A DEEP LAYER RIDGE OVER THE
CENTRAL U.S. AND A TROUGH OVER THE NORTHEAST/NEW ENGLAND REGION
THROUGH FRIDAY. A WEAK BACK DOOR COLD FRONT IS SHOWN BY THE GLOBAL
MODELS TO MOVE IN FROM THE NORTH LATER WEDNESDAY...SETTLING OVER THE
SOUTHERN AREA THURSDAY...THEN WASHING OUT BY LATE WEEK AND NEXT
WEEKEND. A DEEP LAYER RIDGE PUSHES INTO THE EAST AND SOUTHEAST U.S.
SATURDAY AND SUNDAY.

FEEL THE BEST CHANCES FOR PRECIP/CONVECTION WILL BE THURSDAY AS THE
BACKDOOR FRONT PUSHES SOUTHWARD. HAVE KEPT CHANCE POPS...BUT WOULD
NOT BE SURPRISED IF MODEL GUIDANCE TRENDS UPWARD WITH POPS FOR THIS
PERIOD. GIVEN MORE CLOUDS AND HIGHER PRECIP CHANCES...MAX TEMPS
GENERALLY IN THE MID TO UPPER 80S FOR THURSDAY. BY FRIDAY...MODELS
DIVERGE IN THE LOCATION OF THE DEEPEST MOISTURE. FOR NOW...KEEP LOW
END CHANCE POPS FOR THE ENTIRE LAND REGION...BUT IF THE GFS IS
CORRECT...THE HIGHER POPS MAY BE OVER THE SOUTHERN HALF OF THE AREA
CLOSER TO THE OLD BACKDOOR FRONT AND WITHIN HIGHER MOISTURE. FOR
SATURDAY AND SUNDAY...HAVE GONE WITH A DECREASING POP TREND AS THE
DEEP LAYER RIDGE BUILDS OVER THE REGION. THE LOW LEVEL FLOW VEERS
FROM NE ON THURSDAY AND FRIDAY TO EAST-SOUTHEAST BY SATURDAY AND
SUNDAY. HIGH TEMPS GENERALLY IN THE MID TO UPPER 80S AND LOWS IN THE
60S.

&&

.AVIATION /20Z SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
VFR CONDITIONS WILL GENERALLY PREVAIL THROUGH 18Z MONDAY. THE
PRIMARY CONCERN IS CONVECTION THIS AFTERNOON. AN UPPER DISTURBANCE
WILL DROP THROUGH SOUTHEAST SC THIS AFTERNOON THOUGH BETTER LOW
LEVEL INSTABILITY EXISTS IN SOUTHEAST GA. INCREASING CONVECTIVE
COVERAGE ANTICIPATED THROUGH MID TO LATE AFTERNOON. ALTHOUGH THE
BEST COVERAGE IS PROJECTED TO REMAIN INLAND FROM EITHER TERMINAL
IT CANNOT BE RULED OUT THAT SOMETHING MAKES IT DOWN TO THE
TERMINALS LATER. THEREFORE WE ADDED VCTS AT KSAV AND VCSH AT KCHS
FOR THE AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING HOURS.

ADDITIONAL UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCES MOVE THROUGH OVERNIGHT WHICH
COULD SPUR AN ISOLATED SHOWER AT EITHER TERMINAL BUT COVERAGE WILL
BE TOO LOW TO JUSTIFY A MENTION.

EXTENDED AVIATION OUTLOOK...TEMPORARY FLIGHT RESTRICTIONS POSSIBLE
WITH MAINLY AFTERNOON/EARLY EVENING CONVECTION MONDAY THROUGH
FRIDAY. OTHERWISE...VFR CONDITIONS WILL PREVAIL.

&&

.MARINE...
WINDS AND SEAS WILL REMAIN BELOW SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY CRITERIA
THROUGH THE PERIOD. HIGH PRESSURE WILL REMAIN OVER THE ATLANTIC
WATERS THROUGH MID-WEEK. A BACK DOOR COLD FRONT IS EXPECTED TO
ENTER THE WATERS LATE WEDNESDAY AND EARLY THURSDAY. THIS WILL
SETUP HIGHER PRESSURE NORTH OF THE REGION WITH NORTHEAST FLOW
THURSDAY AND FRIDAY.
