AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GREENVILLE-SPARTANBURG SC
716 PM EDT FRI SEP 12 2014

.SYNOPSIS...
A COLD FRONT WILL BECOME STATIONARY JUST TO OUR SOUTH OVER THE
WEEKEND AND INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK WITH UNSETTLED WEATHER LIKELY EACH
DAY. A BACK DOOR COLD FRONT WILL CROSS THE AREA BY THE MIDDLE OF
NEXT WEEK WITH A COOL AIR WEDGE PATTERN SETTING UP BY THE END OF THE
WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH SATURDAY/...
2315 UTC UPDATE...POPS HAVE BEEN ADJUSTED PER RADAR TRENDS...
RESULTING IN INCREASES OVER THE MIDDLE OF THE AREA. SKY COVER WAS
UPDATED FROM SATELLITE IMAGERY...FOLLOWING THE TRENDS OF CONVECTION
IN THE MIDDLE OF THE AREA. WINDS WERE UPDATED WITH A BLEND OF THE
LATEST NAM AND ADJMAV.

AS OF 250 PM...SFC ANALYSIS SHOWS STATIONARY FRONT BOUNCING AROUND
ACROSS THE UPSTATE AND NE GA...BUT REMAINING SOUTH OF NC. THE TRUE
WEDGE BOUNDARY IS STILL WELL TO OUR NORTH. THE GUIDANCE NOW SHOWS
THE WEDGE BOUNDARY NOT REACHING CLT TONIGHT...BUT MOVING SOUTH OF
HKY AND POSSIBLY INTO THE SRN FOOTHILLS. EITHER WAY...STRONG LOW
LEVEL ISENTROPIC LIFT WILL REMAIN NORTH OF THE CLT METRO AREA.
ISENTROPIC LIFT JUST ABOVE THE NEAR SFC LEVEL REMAINS WEAK. IN
FACT...THE WIDESPREAD STRONG SLOW MOVING CONVECTION IS SETTING UP
SOUTH AND EAST OF THE CWFA. THIS IS IN AN AREA WHERE THE ATMOS IS
MUCH MORE UNSTABLE THAN OUR CWFA. EVEN WITH THE COPIOUS SUNSHINE
OVER OUR CWFA...MID LEVEL TEMPS ARE RELATIVELY WARM KEEPING THE
INSTABILITY IN CHECK. THAT SAID...THERE WILL BE NUMEROUS TO
WIDESPREAD SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE CWFA. HOWEVER...
OBSERVED PW VALUES THIS MORNING WERE 1.8 INCHES INSTEAD OF THE 2+
THE GUIDANCE HAS BEEN FORECASTING. THEREFORE...POTENTIAL EXISTS FOR
ISOLATED EXCESSIVE RAINFALL...ESPECIALLY WHERE ANY TRAINING CAN
OCCUR. WILL HAVE TO KEEP AN EYE ON THE SERN CWFA AS WELL...WHICH IS
CLOSER TO THE ABOVE MENTIONED AREA. IN ADDITION...CANNOT RULE OUT A
SEVERE STORM OR TWO...BUT CHC IS RELATIVELY LOW GIVEN THE LACK OF
DRY AIR AND LIGHT SHEAR.

ANOTHER COLD FRONT MOVES INTO THE AREA FROM THE WEST SAT. WITH
CONTINUED DEEP MOISTURE...NUMEROUS SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL
REMAIN ACROSS THE AREA. AGAIN...FCST PW VALUES ARE LOWER THAN
PREVIOUS NUMBERS. IN ADDITION...LITTLE DRY MID LEVEL AIR AND SHEAR
DEVELOP...SO ANY FLOOD AND SEVERE THREAT WILL BE LIMITED...BUT STILL
POSSIBLE. HIGH TEMPS WILL BE BELOW NORMAL WITH THE CONTINUED CLOUDS
AND PRECIP...BUT NOT ESPECIALLY COOL AS THE WEDGE BOUNDARY WILL HAVE
MADE LITTLE SOUTHWARD PROGRESSION.

&&

.SHORT TERM /SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY/...
AS OF 230 PM FRIDAY...THE SHORT RANGE OF THE FORECAST REMAINS
UNSETTLED DUE TO THE PROXIMITY OF AN OLD SURFACE BOUNDARY ACROSS THE
CAROLINAS. THE BOUNDARY WILL BE REINFORCED BY THE ARRIVAL OF A
SECOND BOUNDARY FROM THE WEST SATURDAY EVENING. THAT SHOULD KEEP THE
BEST PRECIP CHANCES E OF THE BLUE RIDGE OVERNIGHT AS DRIER AIR
PUSHES INTO THE MTNS FROM HIGH PRESSURE MOVING OVER THE MIDWEST. A
LIKELY POP STILL LOOKS GOOD ACROSS THE PIEDMONT DUE TO THE FRONT...
BUT THE PROBABILITY SHOULD DIMINISH GRADUALLY OVERNIGHT. CANNOT RULE
OUT SOME AREAS OF HEAVY RAIN OVER THE NC PIEDMONT AS PW MAY
INITIALLY REMAIN HIGH. AS THE MIDWEST SURFACE HIGH BRIDGES THE MTNS
AND MOVES ACROSS UPSTATE NY ON SUNDAY...THE SURFACE PATTERN WILL
GRADUALLY ACQUIRE A WEDGE-LIKE CONFIGURATION. WEAK UPSLOPE/UPGLIDE
AT LOW LEVELS SHOWN BY THE MODEL SHOULD SERVE TO DEVELOP EXTENSIVE
LOW CLOUDS AND SOME LIGHT PRECIP MAINLY E OF THE MTNS...WHICH WILL
KEEP TEMPS WELL BELOW NORMAL. THE NC FOOTHILLS AND PIEDMONT ARE NOT
LIKELY TO GET OUT OF THE 60S. THE PARENT HIGH IS MIGRATORY AND
WEAKENS AS IT MOVES OFF THE E COAST ON MONDAY. THIS WILL NOT DO MUCH
TO LOCK IN A WEDGE FOR MONDAY...WHICH MAKES THE FCST FOR MONDAY
PROBLEMATIC. THE MODEL GUIDANCE MIXES OUT THE WEDGE REMNANTS IN THE
AFTERNOON BUT THERE COULD EASILY BE A LINGERING COOL POOL OVER THE
NC FOOTHILLS. THE TEMP FCST HAS A TEN DEGREE REBOUND OVER MUCH OF
THE AREA BASED ON THE REMNANTS MIXING OUT WITH THE HIGH WEAKENING...
BUT CONFIDENCE IN THIS IS LOW. NEARLY THE WHOLE AREA GETS A CHANCE
OF PRECIP.

&&

.LONG TERM /MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY/...
AS OF 2 PM FRIDAY...THE MEDIUM RANGE FCST PICK UP AT 00Z ON TUESDAY
WITH A BROAD...LONGWAVE UPPER TROF OVER THE EASTERN HALF OF THE
CONUS AND UPPER RIDGING OVER THE WEST. THE OVERALL PATTERN IS NOT
EXPECTED TO CHANGE SIGNIFICANTLY THRU THE PERIOD WITH SOME
DEAMPLIFICATION LIKELY BY DAYS 6 AND 7 AS THE RIDGE AXIS DRIFTS
FARTHER EASTWARD.

AT THE SFC...THE REGION IS EXPECTED TO BE UNDER A BROAD AREA OF WEAK
LOW LVL CONVERGENCE WITH MOIST PROFILES PERSISTING FROM THE PREVIOUS
FEW DAYS. AS ONE HIGH MOVES OFF THE NEW ENGLAND COAST...ANOTHER WILL
MOVE EASTWARD FROM THE NORTHERN PLAINS ON TUES AND THEN NORTH OF OUR
REGION BY LATE WED OR THURS. BY THE END OF THE MEDIUM RANGE...THE
HIGH WILL LIKELY HAVE MOVED OVER NEW ENGLAND AND SET UP ANOTHER COOL
AIR WEDGE OVER THE CAROLINAS. AS FOR THE SENSIBLE FCST...THE LATEST
MODEL RUNS HAVE BEEN TRENDING DRIER AND COOLER...ESPECIALLY TOWARDS
THE END OF THE PERIOD. THE GFS IS NOW MORE IN LINE WITH THE ECMWF
YET IT STILL DOES NOT DRY THE FCST AREA OUT ON WED...BUT BY THURS IT
BEGINS TO SET UP THE WEDGE PATTERN. AS FOR POPS...THE BEST CHANCES
FOR WIDESPREAD DIURNAL CONVECTION WILL BE TUES AND WED. FOR THURS
AND FRI...I ONLY CARRY A SLIGHT CHANCE POP. TEMPS WERE LOWERED EACH
DAY BY A FEW DEGREES WITH VALUES DROPPING THRU THE PERIOD. BY NEXT
FRI...HIGHS ARE NEARLY 2 CATEGORIES BELOW CLIMATOLOGY.

&&

.AVIATION /23Z FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
AT KCLT...CONVECTIVE CHANCES REMAIN OVERNIGHT WITH A FRONT IN THE
AREA AND WEAK MID LEVEL DISTURBANCES ALOFT. INSTABILITY WILL BE A A
MINIMA BETWEEN MIDNIGHT AND DAWN...WHEN THUNDER CHANCES WILL BE
LOWER. GUIDANCE SUPPORTS LIGHT ENE WINDS VEERING TO SE OVERNIGHT...
THEN SW EARLY SATURDAY AHEAD OF ANOTHER COLD FRONT APPROACHING
FROM THE NW. WINDS VEER NW AS THE FRONT MOVES THROUGH SATURDAY
AFTERNOON. A BLEND OF GUIDANCE FAVORS MVFR VSBY IN FOG AT
DAYBREAK...AND AN MVFR CIG DEVELOPING THIS EVENING THAT BRIEFLY
LOWERS TO IFR AROUND DAWN. CIGS AND VSBY RETURN TO VFR BY MIDDAY
SATURDAY.

ELSEWHERE...CONVECTION WILL LINGER IN THE VICINITY OF A NEARLY
STATIONARY FRONT THIS EVENING. AS INSTABILITY DECREASES LATE
TONIGHT...THUNDER CHANCES WILL DECREASE...THOUGH RAIN WILL CONTINUE
OF AND ON. AT FOOTHILL SITES...LIGHT WINDS GRADUALLY VEER FROM NE TO
SE OVERNIGHT..THEN OF LIGHT AND VARIABLE AS ANOTHER FRONT APPROACHES
FROM THE NW. KAVL WINDS REMAIN FROM THE S OVERNIGHT...THEN VEER N BY
DAYBREAK. FOOTHILL WINDS VEER NW BY AFTERNOON AS THE NEXT FRONT
MOVES THROUGH. A BLEND OF GUIDANCE FAVORS MVFR VSBY LATE TONIGHT AT
SC SITES...IFR AT KHKY...AND LIFR TO VLIFR AT KAVL...WITH THE WORST
AT DAYBREAK. GUIDANCE ALSO FAVORS MVFR CIGS AT SC SITES LATE
TONIGHT....WITH IFR AT SC SITES. CIGS AND VSBY RISE TO MVFR BY
MIDDAY.

OUTLOOK...A COLD FRONT WILL BE REINFORCED...AND REMAIN STALLED
ACROSS THE SOUTHEAST THRU THE WEEKEND WHILE A WEAK WEDGE OF HIGH
PRESSURE SLIDES DOWN THE EAST SIDE OF THE MOUNTAINS. MORNING
VSBY/CIG RESTRICTIONS POSSIBLE AT ALL SITES EACH MORNING WITH THE
HIGHEST PROBABILITIES RESIDING ACROSS THE HIGH TERRAIN AND IN THE
MOUNTAIN VALLEYS.
