AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE COLUMBIA SC
945 PM EST TUE DEC 22 2015
.SYNOPSIS...
A WARM AND MOIST SOUTH FLOW WILL DOMINATE THROUGH MUCH OF THE WEEK
ASSOCIATED WITH OFFSHORE HIGH PRESSURE AND A STALLED FRONTAL
SYSTEM.
&&
.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM WEDNESDAY MORNING/...
A MOIST AND WARM SOUTH FLOW BETWEEN HIGH PRESSURE IN THE ATLANTIC
AND LOW PRESSURE IN THE CENTRAL PART OF THE NATION WILL CONTINUE
THROUGH TONIGHT.
SHOWERS HAVE DIMINISHED ACROSS THE AREA DURING THE
EVENING...MAINLY LIGHT AND ACROSS THE EAST MIDLANDS. MOISTURE
FLUX AND ISENTROPIC LIFT MAY INCREASE DURING THE OVERNIGHT.
PRECIPITABLE WATER HIGH...1.5 TO 1.75 INCHES POSSIBLE TOWARD
MORNING. THIS IS AROUND 3 STANDARD DEVIATIONS ABOVE NORMAL. HIGH
RESOLUTION MODELS SUGGEST SOME POTENTIAL FOR INCREASE IN COVERAGE
LATE TONIGHT ACROSS THE REGION...ALTHOUGH CONVECTION APPEARS TO BE
FOCUSED ALONG THE GULF COAST AT THE MOMENT. BUT AS SHORT WAVE
ENERGY LIFTS NORTHEAST...AND ISENTROPIC LIFT INCREASES...RAINFALL
COVERAGE MAY INCREASE. NOTE 40 TO 50KT 850MB SOUTH JET AROUND 12Z
WEDNESDAY IN THE PIEDMONT. DUE TO HEAVY RAIN EARLY THIS
MORNING...GROUND SATURATED IN THE PIEDMONT/WEST MIDLANDS AND CSRA
REGIONS. ANY ADDITIONAL RAINFALL WILL LIKELY RUN-OFF AND FLOOD
THREAT REMAINS ELEVATED. FLASH FLOOD WATCH FOR THOSE REGIONS.
TEMPERATURES LIKELY TO REMAIN NEARLY STATIONARY OVERNIGHT.
&&
.SHORT TERM /6 AM WEDNESDAY MORNING THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT/...
FOR WEDNESDAY AND WEDNESDAY NIGHT...MOISTURE REMAINS PLENTIFUL
ACROSS THE REGION DUE TO A CONTINUED MOIST SOUTHERLY FLOW PATTERN.
STRONG 850 JET OUT OF THE SOUTHWEST WILL BRING GULF MOISTURE
NORTHEASTWARD...WHILE SOUTHEASTERLY UPSLOPE LOW-LEVEL WINDS WILL
BRING ATLANTIC MOISTURE INTO THE CWA. THIS WILL KEEP A PERIOD OF
HEAVY RAINFALL POTENTIAL THROUGHOUT THE REGION AS A SERIES OF
SHORTWAVES ROTATE THROUGH THE SOUTHEASTERN STATES. THERE MAY BE
SOME MARGINAL INSTABILITY DURING THE DAY WEDNESDAY...AND CAN NOT
RULE OUT ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS...BUT AT THIS TIME ANY SEVERE THREAT
APPEARS MINIMAL THROUGH THE PERIOD. SOUNDING PROFILES REMAIN MOIST
ADIABATIC...WITH VERY LITTLE INSTABILITY. THE AXIS OF HEAVIEST
RAINFALL APPEARS AS IF IT WILL BE WEST OF THE CWA...MORE TOWARDS THE
UPSTATE REGION. THIS WILL KEEP THE HIGHEST QPF AMOUNTS ACROSS THE
WESTERN CWA. HOWEVER WITH THE HIGH PW AMOUNTS OF BETWEEN 1.8 AND 2.0
INCHES...PERIODS OF HEAVY RAINFALL WILL BE POSSIBLE ACROSS THE
ENTIRE CWA. TEMPERATURES DURING THIS PERIOD WILL BE WELL ABOVE
NORMAL. USED THE GUIDANCE CONSENSUS FOR THE TEMPERATURE FORECAST.
THURSDAY AND THURSDAY NIGHT...MODELS STILL IN GOOD AGREEMENT WITH
SHIFTING THE BEST CHANCE FOR RAINFALL FURTHER WEST OF THE AREA.
SOUNDINGS SHOWING SOME DRYING OF THE ATMOSPHERE...WITH PW VALUES
DROPPING DOWN TO ABOUT 1.5 INCHES OR LOWER. CAN NOT RULE OUT
ISOLATED TO SCATTERED SHOWERS THROUGH OUT THE DAY. QPF AMOUNTS
DURING THIS TIMEFRAME FORECAST TO BE MUCH LOWER WITH ANY RAINFALL.
TEMPERATURES WILL REMAIN WELL ABOVE NORMAL FOR THE FIRST PORTION OF
WINTER...WITH POSSIBLE RECORD HIGHS ON CHRISTMAS EVE AND CHRISTMAS.
&&
.LONG TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
FRIDAY THROUGH SUNDAY...THE GFS AND ECMWF ARE IN GENERAL AGREEMENT
IN THE UPPER PATTERN FROM FRIDAY THROUGH MONDAY. UPPER RIDGE THAT
HAS BEEN ACROSS THE WESTERN ATLANTIC BEGINS TO MOVE WESTWARD AND
WILL BE SITUATED EAST OF THE FLORIDA PENINSULA BY SUNDAY. BOTH
MODELS SHOW DEEP TROUGH ACROSS THE WESTERN STATES ON FRIDAY. THIS
LOW DEEPENS AND CUTS OFF ACROSS THE 4 CORNERS STATES ON
SATURDAY...AND THEN MOVES INTO WESTERN TEXAS BY SUNDAY. THIS PATTERN
KEEPS THE SOUTHEASTERN UNITED STATES WITH A SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW ALOFT
AND WEAK UPPER LEVEL RIDGING THROUGH THE WEEKEND. EACH DAY MAY
EXPERIENCE ISOLATED TO MAYBE SCATTERED SHOWERS...WITH TEMPERATURES
REMAINING WELL ABOVE SEASONAL NORMS.
MONDAY AND TUESDAY...ONCE WE MOVE INTO THE EARLY PART OF NEXT
WEEK...THE MODELS BEGIN TO DIVERGE SLIGHTLY ON THE SPEED AND
MOVEMENT OF THE CUTOFF LOW MOVING OUT OF TEXAS. BOTH MODELS PUSH
THE UPPER LOW NORTHEASTWARD ACROSS THE PLAINS STATES AND TOWARDS
THE GREAT LAKES. BOTH MODELS SIMILAR ON THE STRENGTH OF THE LOW AS
IT MOVES ALONG...BUT THE GFS IS THE FASTER OF THE TWO MODELS AS
FAR AS POSITION. THIS WILL HAVE A SLIGHT IMPACT ON THE MOVEMENT
AND POSITION OF THE SURFACE COLD FRONT THAT WILL BE MOVING TOWARDS
THE REGION MONDAY NIGHT INTO TUESDAY...WITH THE GFS BEING SLIGHTLY
FASTER WITH THIS FRONT ACROSS THE SOUTHEASTERN STATES. ONLY IMPACT
FOR THE REGION WILL BE ANOTHER INCREASE IN RAIN CHANCES...WITH
TEMPERATURES STILL REMAINING ABOVE NORMAL THROUGH THE PERIOD.
&&
.AVIATION /03Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
WIDESPREAD PROLONGED LIFR CONDITIONS EXPECTED OVERNIGHT AND
WEDNESDAY MORNING...WITH CONDITIONS AT OR BELOW AIRPORT MINIMUMS
POSSIBLE.
CONDITIONS HAVE DETERIORATED TO WIDESPREAD IFR TO LIFR. CURRENT
RADAR MOSAIC STILL INDICATES MAINLY LIGHT RAIN STRETCHING
ACROSS THE EASTERN AND SOUTHERN PORTIONS OF OUR FORECAST AREA
(FA)...EXTENDING SW INTO S AND SE GA....AND IS SHIFTING TO THE
NE. SO...IN THE NEAR TERM...WILL EXPECT LIGHT RAIN TO SHIFT NORTH
AND OVERSPREAD THE REGION. A MORE PRONOUNCED AREA OF MODERATE RAIN
SHIFTING NE FROM THE GULF COAST COULD AFFECT OUR REGION LATE TONIGHT
AND WEDNESDAY MORNING. HOWEVER...CONSIDERABLE UNCERTAINTIES REMAIN
WITH REGARDS TO PLACEMENT...TIMING...AND INTENSITY. IT IS POSSIBLE
THAT VSBYS AND CIGS COULD POSSIBLY IMPROVE SOME IN RESPONSE TO ANY
HEAVIER PRECIP AND A POSSIBLE INCREASE IN SURFACE WINDS...BUT
CONFIDENCE ON THAT IS LIMITED. SO...MAINTAINED A PROLONGED PERIOD
OF LIFR OVERNIGHT AND WEDNESDAY MORNING.
EXTENDED AVIATION OUTLOOK...CHANCE OF RAIN...AND MAINLY LATE NIGHT
AND MORNING RESTRICTIONS...WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY.
&&
.HYDROLOGY...
A FLASH FLOOD WATCH WILL BE IN EFFECT FOR A PORTION OF THE CWA
TONIGHT AND LASTING THROUGH THURSDAY.
WITH THE COMBINATION OF HEAVY RAINFALL THAT HAS FALLEN ACROSS THE
AREA OVER THE PAST 24 HOURS...AND THE EXPECTED PERIODS OF HEAVY

REGION. FLASH FLOOD WARNINGS MAY BE REQUIRED AT TIMES THROUGH
THURSDAY FOR SMALLER STREAMS AND CREAKS.
