AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHARLESTON SC
429 PM EDT MON JUL 28 2014

.SYNOPSIS...
A STRONG COLD FRONT WILL CROSS THE REGION TONIGHT AND BECOME
STATIONARY SOUTH/SOUTHEAST OF THE AREA THROUGH THE MIDDLE
OF THE WEEK. THE FRONT WILL THEN SLOWLY MOVE BACK TOWARDS THE
SOUTHEAST COAST AS A COASTAL TROUGH LATE IN THE WEEK THROUGH EARLY
NEXT WEEK...BRINGING THE POSSIBILITY OF SOME UNSETTLED WEATHER.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM TUESDAY MORNING/...
THE CAPPING INVERSION THAT HAD BEEN MITIGATING THE STRENGTH OF
ISOLATED TO SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS DURING THE EARLY AFTERNOON
TIME FRAME HAS EFFECTIVELY BEEN BROKEN...AND CONVECTION HAS
QUICKLY INTENSIFIED ACCORDINGLY. LATEST MESOANALYSIS INDICATES
IMPRESSIVE SURFACE BASED CAPE VALUES OF 5000 K/JG ACROSS PORTIONS
OF THE FORECAST AREA...INDICATIVE OF THE EXTREME DESTABILIZATION
THAT HAS BEEN TAKING PLACE THROUGH THE HOT AND HUMID AFTERNOON
HOURS. MID LEVEL WINDS OF 40 TO 45 KT WITHIN THE BASE OF THE
ANOMALOUS UPPER TROUGH WILL CREATE AMPLE SHEAR TO SUPPORT DAMAGING
WIND GUSTS WITHIN STRONGEST THUNDERSTORMS. LARGE HAIL IS ALSO A
POTENTIAL HAZARD WITHIN DEEP UPDRAFTS. A SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH
HAS BEEN ISSUED FOR THE ENTIRE FORECAST AREA UNTIL 9 PM EDT TO
ACCOUNT FOR ORGANIZED STRONG CONVECTION ALONG AND AHEAD OF AN
APPROACHING COLD FRONT JUST TO THE WEST/NORTHWEST OF THE INLAND
ZONES. EXPECT CONVECTIVE COVERAGE TO PEAK LATE THIS AFTERNOON
THROUGH THE EARLY EVENING HOURS...GENERALLY SHIFTING
EAST/SOUTHEAST WITH THE FRONTAL PROGRESSION. SHOWER/THUNDERSTORM
CHANCES WILL THEN DECREASE FROM WEST TO EAST TOWARD
MIDNIGHT...WITH RAIN CHANCES BELOW 15 PERCENT FOR ALL LAND AREAS
BY DAYBREAK TUESDAY.

LATEST SURFACE OBSERVATIONS INDICATE HEAT INDICES STILL WITHIN THE
ADVISORY RANGE BY 4 PM EDT. ANY AREAS IMPACTED BY THUNDERSTORMS
DURING THE NEXT FEW HOURS WILL EXPERIENCE RAPID COOLING. OUTSIDE
OF THESE LOCATIONS...THE ONGOING HEAT ADVISORY LOOKS ON TRACK TO
CONTINUE UNTIL 7 PM EDT. WIND DIRECTIONS WILL STEADILY VEER TO
NORTHWEST/NORTH BEHIND THE DEPARTING FRONT LATE TONIGHT...AND
EXPECT NOTABLY COOLER CONDITIONS COMPARED TO THE PREVIOUS NIGHT.
LOW TEMPERATURES WILL LIKELY RANGE FROM AROUND 69 TO 70 DEGREES
FAR INLAND TO THE LOW TO MID 70S ALONG THE COAST.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM TUESDAY MORNING THROUGH THURSDAY/...
TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY...THE PATTERN WILL BECOME MUCH MORE QUIET INTO
MIDWEEK AS SFC HIGH PRESSURE EXTENDS OVER THE AREA BEHIND A COLD
FRONT THAT BECOMES STATIONARY WELL SOUTH OF THE REGION. ALOFT...A
BROAD AND HIGHLY ANOMALOUS TROUGH OF LOW PRESSURE FOR MID SUMMER
WILL SET UP OVER MUCH OF THE EASTERN CONUS. THIS PATTERN WILL FAVOR
COOLER CONDITIONS THAN PREVIOUS DAYS...WITH AFTERNOON HIGH TEMPS IN
THE UPPER 80S TO AROUND 90...WARMEST OVER SOUTHEAST GEORGIA.
OVERNIGHT LOWS SHOULD RANGE IN THE MID/UPPER 60S INLAND TO LOW/MID
70S CLOSER TO THE COAST. HIGH TEMPS COULD BE A DEGREE OR TWO COOLER
WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON AS A LIGHT ONSHORE WIND DEVELOPS NORTH OF WHAT
SHOULD EVENTUALLY BE A COASTAL TROUGH DEVELOPING OFF THE SOUTHEAST
COAST. ALTHOUGH THE SETUP SHOULD FAVOR SLIGHTLY MORE MOISTURE RETURN
OVER THE REGION...A DRY FORECAST WILL REMAIN IN PLACE. HOWEVER...A
SHOWER AND/OR ISOLATED THUNDERSTORM CAN NOT BE COMPLETELY RULED OUT
ALONG THE COAST WHERE THE BEST MOISTURE CONVERGENCE OCCURS ALONG A
SEABREEZE.

THURSDAY...THE STATIONARY FRONT TO OUR SOUTH WILL BEGIN TO LIFT
NORTH THROUGHOUT THE DAY WHILE TRANSITIONING INTO A COASTAL TROUGH
OFF THE SOUTHEAST COAST. A SLIGHT CHANCE TO CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS SHOULD RETURN TO THE AREA BY THURSDAY AFTERNOON AS
MOISTURE DEEPENS WITH PWATS APPROACHING 1.5 TO 1.75 INCHES IN
RESPONSE TO THIS FEATURE. COVERAGE SHOULD BE GREATEST NEAR THE
AFTERNOON SEABREEZE CIRCULATION ALONG THE SOUTHEAST GEORGIA COAST.
GIVEN THE LIKELIHOOD OF INCREASING CLOUD COVER AND LIGHT ONSHORE
WINDS DURING PEAK HEATING...OVERALL HIGH TEMPS SHOULD REMAIN IN THE
UPPER 80S TO AROUND 90...WARMEST AWAY FROM THE COAST IN SOUTHEAST
GEORGIA.

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY/...
THE BAROCLINIC ZONE IN THE NEARBY ATLANTIC WILL HAVE ALLOWED FOR A
WELL PRONOUNCED COASTAL TROUGH TO SET UP NEAR OR JUST EAST OF OUR
COASTAL WATERS LATE IN THE WEEK. AT THE SAME TIME THERE ARE
INDICATIONS THAT AN UNUSUALLY MID-SUMMERTIME HIGH PRESSURE WEDGE
COULD ATTEMPT TO SET UP SHOP INLAND. UPSTAIRS THE PROMINENT AND
PERSISTENT LONG WAVE TROUGH IN THE EAST WILL AMPLIFY A BIT
FURTHER...CAUSING SW TRAJECTORIES TO ADVECT MOISTURE IN OFF THE GULF
OF MEXICO. THESE FACTORS WILL RESULT IN AN INCREASED CHANCE OF
SHOWERS/T-STORMS LATE IN THE WEEK INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK...WHICH IN
TURN WILL KEEP MAX TEMPS DOWN SEVERAL DEGREES BELOW NORMAL. AT
PRESENT THERE ARE NO INDICATIONS OF ANY SORT OF LOW DEVELOPING ON
THE COASTAL TROUGH...BUT THERE ARE HINTS THAT THE TROPICAL WAVE
CURRENTLY IN THE EASTERN ATLANTIC MAY HAVE DEVELOPED INTO A TROPICAL
CYCLONE BY LATE IN THE FORECAST PERIOD...AS IT TURNS NORTH OF THE
CARIBBEAN ISLANDS AND STAYS WELL OUT IN THE ATLANTIC WITH THE
EASTERN TROUGH STILL ANCHORED IN PLACE.

&&

.AVIATION /20Z MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
WILL CONTINUE TO INDICATE VFR CONDITIONS PREVAILING AT BOTH TAF
SITES OUTSIDE OF LATE DAY AND EVENING THUNDERSTORMS. SCATTERED
SHRA/TSRA WILL GRADUALLY INCREASE IN COVERAGE BY LATE AFTERNOON
AND POSSIBLY LINGER IN THE VICINITY THROUGH THE EVENING HOURS.
HAVE INDICATED VCTS AT BOTH TERMINALS FROM ABOUT 20Z THROUGH
04Z...WITH EARLIER IMPACTS POSSIBLE AT KCHS. HAVE MAINTAINED
TEMPO GROUPS TO NARROW DOWN PERIODS OF TSRA AND MVFR CONDITIONS TO
JUST TWO TO THREE HOURS...HOWEVER ADJUSTMENTS WILL LIKELY BE
NEEDED ACCORDING TO CONVECTIVE TRENDS. IT SHOULD BE NOTED THAT
ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS COULD BECOME SEVERE AND PRODUCE NOTABLY
STRONGER WINDS AND LOWER FLIGHT RESTRICTIONS. CONVECTION WILL EXIT
THE AREA TO THE SOUTH/SOUTHEAST WITH THE DEPARTING COLD FRONT
TONIGHT...WITH VFR WEATHER AND STEADILY VEERING WINDS AFTER 03Z TO
04Z.

EXTENDED AVIATION OUTLOOK...VFR TUESDAY INTO WEDNESDAY. OCCASIONAL
FLIGHT RESTRICTIONS WILL BE POSSIBLE LATE IN THE WEEK AS A COASTAL
TROUGH DEVELOPS OFF THE SOUTHEAST COAST FRIDAY THROUGH SUNDAY.

&&

.MARINE...
TONIGHT...THE PRESSURE GRADIENT WILL CONTINUE TO TIGHTEN ACROSS
THE MARINE ZONES AHEAD OF AN APPROACHING COLD FRONT. THE
TIGHTENING GRADIENT WILL SUPPORT ELEVATED SOUTHWEST WINDS IN THE
15-20 KT RANGE THROUGH THE EVENING. SEAS WILL GENERALLY BE 2 TO 4
FT WITHIN 20 NM AND 3 TO 5 FT BEYOND. STRONG THUNDERSTORMS ARE
EXPECTED TO MOVE OVER THE WATERS TONIGHT ALONG AND JUST AHEAD OF
A COLD FRONT. THE FRONT WILL THEN SHIFT THROUGH THE MARINE ZONES
BY LATE TONIGHT...ALLOWING WINDS TO VEER TO THE NORTHWEST AND
SPEED DIMINISH.

TUESDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY...WINDS/SEAS WILL REMAIN WELL BELOW SMALL
CRAFT ADVISORY LEVELS THROUGH MID WEEK...WITH WINDS EVENTUALLY
VEERING AROUND TO AN EASTERLY FLOW AND REMAINING AT OR BELOW 10 TO
12 KT. SEAS WILL BE NO HIGHER THAN 2 OR 3 FT.

THURSDAY THROUGH SATURDAY...A COASTAL TROUGH SHOULD DEVELOP OVER THE
WATERS LATE THURSDAY OR FRIDAY AND WILL PERSIST CLOSE TO THE COASTAL
WATERS INTO THE WEEKEND. WE WILL PROBABLY STAY ON THE WEST SIDE OF
THIS SURFACE FEATURE...WHICH SUGGESTS THAT WINDS WILL BE SOME
EASTERLY COMPONENT AT LESS THAN 15 KT THROUGH THE FORECAST
PERIOD...WHILE SEAS WILL BE HELD AT OR BELOW 3 FT. SCATTERED SHOWERS
AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL HAVE RETURNED FOR LATE IN THE WEEK DUE TO
THE PROXIMITY OF THE TROUGH AND THE ONSHORE FETCH.
