AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GREENVILLE-SPARTANBURG SC
757 PM EDT THU MAY 22 2014

.SYNOPSIS...
A BACK DOOR COLD FRONT SLOWLY MOVES SOUTH INTO THE REGION
OVERNIGHT... THEN ACROSS THE AREA FRIDAY. DRY HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS
BACK IN FROM THE NORTH ON SATURDAY...THEN SLIDES OFF SHORE SUNDAY AS
A SOUTHERLY FLOW DEVELOPS THROUGH THE MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH FRIDAY/...
AS OF 755 PM EDT THURSDAY...INCREASED POPS ALONG THE TN BORDER ZONES
AS CONVECTION ACROSS EAST TN CONTINUES MIGRATING EASTWARD.  THE
AIRMASS ACROSS WESTERN NC REMAINS CONDITIONALLY UNSTABLE PER 20Z
IPHEX SOUNDING FROM UNC ASHEVILLE.  HOWEVER DUE TO CONTINUED HEATING
LOSS...RELATIVE TO EAST TN...INSTABILITY ACROSS WESTERN NC IS LOWER
THEREFORE NOT EXPECTING THESE THUNDERSTORMS TO CONTINUE OUTSIDE OF
THE HIGH TERRAIN BEFORE ERODING.  OTHERWISE...NO SIGNIFICANT CHANGES
MADE TO THE FORECAST WITH THIS UPDATE.

PREVIOUS DISCUSSION...

AS OF 230 PM EDT...MTN WAVE CIRRUS DISSIPATED AS MOISTURE SOURCE
/DEBRIS FROM EARLY MRNG MCS ACTIVITY OVER THE OHIO VALLEY/ HAS NOW
DEPLETED. THE VERTICAL PROFILES ARE LIKELY STILL SUPPORTIVE OF WAVE
CLOUD DEVELOPMENT...SO IF UPSTREAM TSTMS DEVELOP THIS AFTN...ANY
DEBRIS FROM THEM COULD BE ACCENTUATED BY THE BLUE RIDGE. TEMPS HAD
BEEN KEPT DOWN QUITE A BIT THRU MIDDAY BUT HAVE NOW REBOUNDED
NICELY.

LATEST EXPECTATIONS FOR CONVECTION FOLLOW THE LATEST SHORT
TERM GUIDANCE WHICH INITIATE CELLS IN THE HIGH ELEVS NEAR THE TENN
BORDER MID TO LATE AFTN...WITH AN UPTICK AS MIDLEVEL CAP IS ERODED
AROUND SUNSET...THE ACTIVITY PERSISTING THRU THE EVENING BEFORE
GRADUALLY TAPERING OFF. SOME DEVELOPMENT IS ALSO SUGGESTED IN THE
LEE TROUGH SW OF CHARLOTTE. ANY ACTIVITY WILL BE MONITORED FOR
SEVERE WIND GUSTS AND HAIL...GIVEN 1000-2000 J OF CAPE...MODEST
0-6KM SHEAR...AND HIGH DCAPE. SPC HAS MAINTAINED SLGT RISK IN THE
MTNS FOR THESE REASONS THOUGH EXPECTS LESS COVERAGE THAN IN EARLIER
OUTLOOKS.

UPPER ANTICYCLONE OVER THE GULF REGION WILL PERSIST THRU THE NEAR
TERM AS LOW GRADUALLY MOVES OFF THE NORTHEAST COAST AND IS REPLACED
BY HIGH PRESSURE FROM THE NRN PLAINS. BACKDOOR COLD FRONT WILL
SLOWLY PUSH SWD THRU THE OH/TN VALLEYS AND THE MID-ATLANTIC REGION
THRU 00Z SAT. MOST OF THE SERN CONUS WILL REMAIN IN A RATHER
UNSTABLE ENVIRONMENT AHEAD OF THE FRONT. FOR MOST OF OUR AREA
DIURNAL INHIBITION WILL PREVENT OVERNIGHT ACTIVITY...BUT IN NW FLOW
AREAS ALONG THE TENN BORDER THE CIN REMAINS MINIMAL AND THE UPSLOPE
FLOW MAY BE ENOUGH TO DRIVE DEVELOPMENT INTO THE NIGHT.

WHILE LLVL COLD ADVECTION DOES NOT MAKE SIGNIFICANT INROADS INTO THE
CWFA UNTIL AFTER SUNSET FRI EVENING...ENOUGH OF A THERMAL GRADIENT IS
SHOWN ACRS THE AREA BY MID-LATE AFTN TO EXPECT A FOCUS FOR
CONVECTION. THERMAL AND VERTICAL WIND PROFILES FOR TMRW AFTN ARE
RATHER SIMILAR TO THOSE TODAY SO THE THREATS OF DMGG WIND AND/OR HAIL
ARE STILL EXPECTED TO BE PRESENT. SPC NOW FEATURES A SLGT RISK ON
THE DAY 2 OTLK A BIT TO OUR EAST WHERE THE SHEAR IS STRONGER
DOWNSTREAM OF THE RIDGE.

WITH THE PROFILES REMAINING SO SIMILAR INTO FRIDAY ONE WONDERS
WHETHER MTN WAVE CIRRUS WILL BE A STABILIZING FACTOR IN THE
FCST...GIVEN THEIR EXISTENCE TODAY. THE AMOUNT OF DEBRIS EJECTED FROM
UPSTREAM CONVECTION OVERNIGHT COULD DETERMINE IF AND TO WHAT DEGREE
WAVE CLOUDS DEVELOP. THIS SAID...THE FLOW SHOULD BE A BIT MORE
WESTERLY AND THUS AT A LESS FAVORABLE ANGLE ACRS THE APPALACHIANS.
WILL STILL EXPECT TEMPS TO RISE TO NEAR 90 EAST OF THE MTNS GIVEN
THE UNCERTAINTY IN THE CLOUD DEVELOPMENT...BUT EXPECTING THE COOL
AIR NOT TO ARRIVE UNTIL AFTER PEAK HEATING.

&&

.SHORT TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY/...
AS OF 215 PM THURSDAY...IT LOOKS AS IF THE BALANCE OF THE WEEKEND
WILL BE RELATIVELY UNEVENTFUL...BUT THERE ARE SOME TRENDS IN SOME OF
THE MODEL DATA THAT WOULD SUGGEST OTHERWISE. EXPECT THERE TO BE SOME
LEFTOVER CONVECTION OVER THE PIEDMONT OR UPSTATE ON FRIDAY EVENING
ALONG AN ILL-DEFINED SURFACE BOUNDARY. THIS ACTIVITY SHOULD WEAKEN
WITH SUNSET AS THE BOUNDARY PUSHES FURTHER SOUTH. LOW TEMPS WILL
COOL OFF ABOUT FIVE DEGREES BELOW TONIGHTS MIN TEMPS. ON SATURDAY...
EXPECT A GENERALLY UNFAVORABLE ENVIRONMENT FOR SHOWERS AND STORMS AS
DRIER AIR PUSHES DOWN FROM THE NORTH AND HIGH TEMPS STAY NEAR
NORMAL. HOWEVER...THERE COULD BE SOME MOISTURE CONVERGENCE IN THE
UPPER SAVANNAH RIVER BASIN AND THE SRN MTNS OF NC...ENOUGH TO FUEL
AN ISOLATED SHOWER OR STORM...AND THAT WILL BE ADDED LATE IN THE DAY
OVER THE BALSAMS AND UPPER FRENCH BROAD VALLEY. SURFACE HIGH
PRESSURE OVER THE MIDWEST AND GREAT LAKES WILL SPRAWL FARTHER
SOUTHEAST ON SATURDAY NIGHT...AND BY SUNDAY AFTERNOON THE STRONGER
SURFACE HIGH CENTER SHOULD BE OFF THE SOUTHEAST COAST. THIS COULD
SERVE TO BRING THE LOW LEVEL FLOW AROUND TO THE SOUTH OR
SOUTHWEST...ADVECTING SOME MOISTURE BACK UP FROM THE SOUTH TO FUEL
DIURNAL THUNDERSTORMS. THE GFS IS THE MOST EXCITED ABOUT THIS
PROSPECT...WHILE THE NAM KEEPS THE SHOWERS CONFINED TO NORTHEAST
GEORGIA. WILL ALLOW FOR A SLIGHT CHANCE TO DEVELOP IN THE AFTERNOON
BASICALLY ACROSS THE AREA WEST OF I-26 AS A NOD TO CONSENSUS. TEMPS
SHOULD ALSO START TO REBOUND AS WELL.

&&

.LONG TERM /SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY/...
AS OF 240 PM THURSDAY...A STRONG RIDGE AXIS WILL CROSS THE REGION
MONDAY WHILE SFC HIPRES SHIFTS SE AND MERGES WITH THE BERMUDA HIGH.
THIS WILL ALLOW FOR INCREASING SBCAPE AND THE DEVELOPMENT OF
AFTERNOON CONVECTION. VERY LITTLE SHEAR AND DYNAMICAL FORCING WITH
THIS TYPE OF ENVIRONMENT...SO WILL ANTICIPATE SFC/BASED PULSE TSTMS.
THE RIDGE BEGINS TO BREAK DOWN TUE AND A WEAK BOUNDARY PUSHES INTO
THE MIDLANDS. ALONG WITH A LEE SIDE TROF AND WEAK POCKETS OF ULVL
VORT ENERGY...THESE WILL BE THE ONLY TRIGGERING MECHANISMS THROUGH
THE PERIOD. SOME DEEPER MOISTURE TRANSPORT OCCURS BEGINNING TUE AND
THIS SHOULD HELP IN KEEPING SBCAPE VALUES ON THE LOW END AND NCAPE
LESS THAN 0.1 OR SO. THUS...WILL KEEP THE MENTION OF DIURNAL THUNDER
AND EXPECT LOW TO MODERATE INTENSITIES. SOME SHOWERY ACTIVITY COULD
BE MAINTAINED ACROSS THE MTNS EACH NIGHT WITH A MOIST BL AND WEAK
LOBES OF ENERGY TRAVERSING EAST. MAX TEMPS WILL BE ABOVE NORMAL WITH
GOOD SW/LY FLOW TRANSITIONING TO A DOWNSLOPING W/LY PATTERN.

&&

.AVIATION /00Z FRIDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
AT KCLT...VFR CONDITIONS WILL PREVAIL AS DEEP LAYER RIDGING
CONTINUES TO DOMINATE THE PATTERN THROUGH THE PERIOD.  CURRENT LOW
VFR CU WILL ERODE WITH HEATING LOSS LEADING TO JUST A FEW HIGH LEVEL
CIRRUS CLOUDS OVERNIGHT.  WINDS THROUGH THE OVERNIGHT WILL REMAIN
NORTHWESTERLY AT AROUND 3-6KTS.  PRECIPITATION CHANCES WILL RAMP UP
INTO THE LATE MORNING AND AFTERNOON HOURS ON FRIDAY AS DAYTIME
HEATING INDUCED INSTABILITY BUILDS AND POSSIBLY INTERACTS WITH BACK
DOOR FRONTAL BOUNDARY THAT WILL BE PUSHING THROUGH THE AREA.  DUE TO
UNCERTAINTY OF EVENTUALLY SPEED/PLACEMENT OF THE FROPA...DECIDED TO
HOLD OFF ON ANY WX MENTION AT THE AIRFIELD.  THAT SAID...STEEP
LOW/MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES IN A MODESTLY MOIST AIRMASS WILL PRESENT
THE POSSIBILITY OF TSRA AROUND EARLY AFTERNOON.  OTHERWISE...CARRIED
MENTION OF LOW VFR CIGS DUE TO DIURNAL CU DEVELOPMENT WITH 8-10KT
NORTHWEST WINDS.

KAVL...A MIXTURE OF VFR/MVFR AND POSSIBLY IFR CONDITIONS WILL
PREVAIL AT ASHEVILLE THROUGH THE PERIOD.  INITIALIZED TAF WITH VCTS
MENTION WITH A CB CLOUD GROUP AS CURRENT ONGOING CONVECTION IN EAST
TN MAKES A RUN AT THE MOUNTAINS...WITH SOME OF THAT ACTIVITY
POTENTIALLY HOLDING TOGETHER.  CONFIDENCE REMAINS LOW IN THIS
OCCURRING THEREFORE OPTED FOR VCTS RATHER THAN PREVAILING TSRA.
WILL MONITOR CLOSELY FOR ANY UPDATES IN THE NEXT FEW HOURS.
OTHERWISE...WINDS WILL DECREASE OVERNIGHT ALLOWING THE ATM TO
DECOUPLE SOMEWHAT LEADING TO A FEW GUIDANCE SOLUTIONS INDICATING
MVFR LEVEL FOG...AND POTENTIAL IFR CIGS DURING THE MID MORNING
HOURS.  DECIDED TO PREVAIL THE MVFR VISB/CIGS FOR 4 HRS WITH A 3HR
TEMPO FOR IFR CIGS.  EXPECTING THE ABOVE MENTIONED BACK DOOR FRONT
TO SWEEP THROUGH THE MOUNTAINS TOMORROW AFTERNOON AHEAD OF PEAK
HEATING...YIELDING LOW PRECIP CHANCES THUS DID NOT INCLUDE ANY WX
MENTION.  WINDS WILL REMAIN NORTHWESTERLY AND INCREASE INTO THE 8-12
KTS RANGE WITH SOME 20KT GUSTS POSSIBLE DUE TO CHANNELING AND MIXING
ON FRIDAY AFTERNOON.

ELSEWHERE...VFR CONDITIONS WILL PREVAIL THROUGH THE PERIOD AT ALL
OTHER SITE WITH THE POSSIBLE EXCEPTION OF MVFR LEVEL FOG AT KHKY AND
KAND FRIDAY MORNING WHICH WAS HANDLED WITH TEMPOS.
OTHERWISE...LIGHT/CALM WINDS OVERNIGHT WILL INCREASE YET AGAIN AS
THE MIXED LAYER DEEPENS AND PRESSURE GRADIENT FORCES TIGHTEN AS THE
BACK DOOR FRONT APPROACHES.  POPS REMAIN TOO LOW AT THIS TIME TO
INCLUDE ANY MENTION OF WX AT ANY LOCATION.  THAT SAID...THE UPSTATE
SITES WILL SEE THE BEST CHANCES AS THE FROPA WILL BE SLOWER TO
OVERTAKE THIS REGION ALLOWING FOR MORE HEATING AND BETTER
DESTABILIZATION.  LATER TAF UPDATES WILL POSSIBLY INTRODUCE WX.
WINDS WILL GENERALLY REMAIN WEST NORTHWESTERLY AT ALL SITES DURING
THE DAY WITH GUSTS POSSIBLE INTO THE AFTERNOON UNDERNEATH LOW VFR
FAIR WX CU.

OUTLOOK...DRY HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN FOR THE WEEKEND...ISOLATED
SHRA/TSRA ARE POSSIBLE.
