The radar
The Charleston,SC radar (KCLX), 42 km from the middle of the area, began a volume at 21:09 UTC, the scan nearest the moment this went out.
Open the radar archive at this moment
The archived warnings, watches and discussions in force at that minute are drawn over the scan, this one among them.
Did it verify
Not verified. The Iowa Environmental Mesonet's Cow found no qualifying storm report inside this severe thunderstorm warning while it was in force. That is not proof nothing happened: reports are thin where few people live.
Cow counts a report within 15 km of the polygon while the warning was in force: a tornado for a tornado warning; hail of 1 inch or more, a gust of 58 mph or more or wind damage for a severe thunderstorm warning; a flash flood report for a flash flood warning.
The nearest sounding before it
Charleston AFB, SC (KCHS), launched 12:00Z, 9.1 hours before the alert went out and 118 km from the middle of its area. This is the routine balloon launch nearest before it, the air the forecaster had in hand, not a measurement taken for the alert.

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHARLESTON SC
433 PM EDT THU JUL 3 2014
.SYNOPSIS...
HURRICANE ARTHUR WILL CONTINUE TO TRACK NORTH AND THEN NORTHEAST OFF
THE NORTH CAROLINA COAST TONIGHT. HIGH PRESSURE WILL SINK SOUTH OVER
THE AREA FRIDAY THROUGH SATURDAY...THEN SHIFT EAST ON SUNDAY.
ATLANTIC HIGH PRESSURE WILL PREVAIL THROUGH MUCH OF NEXT WEEK. REFER
TO THE LATEST ADVISORY ON ARTHUR ISSUED BY THE NATIONAL HURRICANE
CENTER.
&&
.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM FRIDAY MORNING/...
HURRICANE ARTHUR WILL CONTINUE TO TRACK NORTH AND THEN NORTHEAST
AWAY FROM SOUTHEAST SOUTH CAROLINA. WINDS WILL CONTINUE TO
DIMINISH AND WE HAVE TAKEN DOWN THE WIND ADVISORY FOR CHARLESTON
COUNTY. LATEST RADAR IMAGERY SHOWS THE FEW LAST SHOWERS AROUND
ARTHUR PULLING AWAY FROM CHARLESTON COUNTY...WITH ADDITIONAL
SHOWERS AND STORMS NEAR THE SAVANNAH RIVER HEADING SOUTHEAST
TOWARD THE COAST. THIS CONVECTION IS IN AN AREA OF CONVERGENCE AND
COULD NOT RULE OUT A FEW STORMS BECOMING SEVERE WITH DAMAGING
WINDS GIVEN THE DCAPES NEAR 1000 J/KG. THIS ACTIVITY SHOULD
DIMINISH THIS EVENING WITH LOSS OF DAYTIME HEATING/INSTABILITY
ALTHOUGH MAY LINGER ACROSS SOUTHEAST SOUTH CAROLINA AS A WEAK
SHORTWAVE TROUGH APPROACHES FROM THE WEST. BY DAYBREAK ALL RAIN
SHOULD BE OFFSHORE. LOWS MAINLY LOWER TO MID 70S...EXCEPT CLOSER
TO THE UPPER 70S AT THE BEACHES.
&&
.SHORT TERM /6 AM FRIDAY MORNING THROUGH SUNDAY/...
A WEAK COLD FRONT WILL SHIFT OFF THE COAST FRIDAY MORNING WITH DRY
HIGH PRESSURE SETTLING OVER THE AREA. LOW AND MID LEVEL RIDGING WILL
PRODUCE SUBSIDENCE ACROSS THE REGION AND DAYTIME DEWPOINTS WILL MIX
DOWN INTO THE LOW/MID 60S. ASIDE FROM SOME JET-INDUCED CIRRUS... WE
EXPECT MOSTLY SUNNY SKIES...DRY WEATHER...AND WARM TEMPS IN THE
MIDDLE 90S.
FRIDAY NIGHT AND SATURDAY THE HIGH WILL BEGIN TO SHIFT OFF THE
MID-ATLANTIC COAST WHILE A WEAK TROUGH DEVELOPS ACROSS SOUTHEAST GA
AND THE ADJACENT WATERS. A MOIST ONSHORE FLOW WILL DEVELOP...WITH
THE HIGHEST LOW-LEVEL DEWPOINTS ACROSS COASTAL SOUTHEAST GA.
PREVAILING NE FLOW WILL ALLOW THE SEA BREEZE TO DEVELOP EARLY IN THE
AFTERNOON AND BEGIN TO PUSH INLAND. CAPE VALUES WILL APPROACH 1000
J/KG IN SOUTHERN SC WITH UP TO 1500 JOULES IN SOUTHEAST GA WHERE
THERE IS BETTER LOW-LEVEL THETA-E. ISOLATED SHOWERS/TSTMS EXPECTED
MAINLY DURING THE AFTERNOON DUE TO SEA BREEZE FORCING AND
CONVERGENCE ALONG THE STALLED SURFACE TROUGH. HIGHS WILL BE IN THE
LOW TO MID 90S.
ON SUNDAY THE DEEP-LAYERED RIDGE WILL SHIFT OFF THE EASTERN SEABOARD
WITH LOW AND MID LEVEL FLOW BECOMING SOUTH TO SOUTHWEST. A WEAK
TROUGH WILL REMAIN STALLED JUST TO OUR SOUTH. BETTER LOW-LEVEL
INSTABILITY COMBINED WITH A MODEST SEA BREEZE WILL ALLOW FOR
SCATTERED AFTERNOON AND EVENING SHOWERS AND TSTMS. MODEL SOUNDINGS
SHOW SOME DECENT MID-LEVEL DRY AIR ON SUNDAY WHICH COULD RESULT IN A
SLIGHTLY ENHANCED RISK FOR DAMAGING WINDS WITH THE STRONGER
STORMS.
&&
.LONG TERM /SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY/...
A MORE TYPICAL SUMMERTIME PATTERN IS EXPECTED INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK
AS THE AREA REMAINS BETWEEN HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE WESTERN ATLANTIC
AND A LEE TROUGH OF LOW PRESSURE DEVELOPING OVER THE MIDLANDS. A
SOMEWHAT DRY WEST FLOW ALOFT SHOULD LIMIT OVERALL PRECIP INTO
TUESDAY...BUT LIGHT ONSHORE FLOW AT THE SFC COULD PROVIDE ENOUGH
MOISTURE RETURN FOR AFTERNOON SHOWERS AND/OR THUNDERSTORMS EACH
DAY...GREATEST CHANCES ALONG AN INLAND MOVING SEABREEZE. HAVE
LIMITED OVERALL POPS TO LOW-END CHANCE MONDAY AND TUESDAY AFTERNOON
AT THIS TIME. BY WEDNESDAY...PWATS APPROACH 1.75 INCHES OVER
SOUTHEAST GEORGIA AS AN ONSHORE SFC FLOW PERSISTS. SLIGHTLY HIGHER
CHANCES OF SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS WILL THEREFORE BE IN THE FORECAST
ON WEDNESDAY. SFC TEMPS SHOULD GRADUALLY WARM INTO MIDWEEK AS MID
LVL RIDGING EXTENDS ACROSS THE SOUTHEAST. EXPECT AFTERNOON HIGH TEMPS
IN THE LOW/MID 90S AWAY FROM THE COAST. OVERNIGHT LOWS SHOULD RANGE
IN THE LOW TO MID 70S AWAY FROM THE COAST.
&&
.AVIATION /20Z THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
NO SIGNIFICANT CONCERNS THROUGH 18Z FRI AS HURRICANE ARTHUR MOVES
FARTHER AWAY TO THE NORTHEAST. WINDS WILL REMAIN GUSTY THOUGH THIS
AFTERNOON...ESPECIALLY AT KCHS. SOME SHOWERS/STORMS COULD IMPACT
THE TERMS THROUGH TONIGHT AS RAIN BANDS FROM ARTHUR GET PRETTY
CLOSE TO KCHS AND ADDITIONAL CONVECTION DEVELOPS INLAND DUE TO
AFTERNOON HEATING AND A LINGERING SURFACE TROUGH. HOWEVER...RAIN
CHANCES AT THE TERMS ARE TOO LOW TO MENTION.
EXTENDED AVIATION OUTLOOK...BRIEF CEILING/VISIBILITY REDUCTIONS ARE
POSSIBLE EACH AFTERNOON/EVENING WITHIN SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
SATURDAY THROUGH MONDAY.
&&
.MARINE...
TONIGHT...CONDITIONS WILL CONTINUE TO IMPROVE AS ARTHUR DEPARTS
AND WINDS SLACKEN. HOWEVER...THE TS WARNING WILL REMAIN IN EFFECT
FOR THE CHARLESTON COUNTY WATERS WHILE A SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY
REMAINS IN EFFECT FOR THE CHARLESTON HARBOR AND OFFSHORE GA
WATERS INTO THIS EVENING. NO HEADLINES ARE EXPECTED LATE TONIGHT.
FRIDAY THROUGH TUESDAY...WINDS/SEAS WILL BE QUITE VARIABLE AND WEAK
ON FRIDAY AS A SUBTLE TROUGH PASSES THROUGH THE WATERS. OVER THE
WEEKEND HIGH PRESSURE MOVING IN FROM THE NORTH...THEN SHIFTING TO
THE EAST WILL BRING A RETURN TO PREVAILING ONSHORE FLOW WITH A SEA
BREEZE ALONG THE COAST EACH AFTERNOON.
EAST/SOUTHEAST WINDS WILL THEN BECOME SOUTH/SOUTHWEST GUSTING UP TO
15-20 KTS EARLY NEXT WEEK AS A MODEST PRESSURE GRADIENT DEVELOPS
OVER THE WATERS BETWEEN HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE ATLANTIC AND A TROUGH
OF LOW PRESSURE INLAND. SEAS WILL BUILD TO 2-4 FT BY THE MIDDLE OF
NEXT WEEK.
HIGH SURF/RIP CURRENTS...CONDITIONS WILL CONTINUE TO SLOWLY
IMPROVE IN THE SURF ZONE AS ARTHUR MOVES FARTHER AWAY. HOWEVER...DANGEROUS
SURF WILL CONTINUE ALONG THE CENTRAL SC COAST INTO THIS EVENING
ALONG WITH AN ENHANCED RISK OF RIP CURRENTS FOR THE ENTIRE COAST
SOUTHWARD INTO NORTH COASTAL GEORGIA.
