AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHARLESTON SC
1119 PM EDT SAT OCT 3 2015

...RECORD SETTING RAINFALL AND DANGEROUS FLASH FLOODING
CONTINUE...

.SYNOPSIS...
LOW PRESSURE WILL MEANDER OVER OR NEAR THE AREA INTO SUNDAY NIGHT
BEFORE MOVING AWAY MONDAY AND TUESDAY. HIGH PRESSURE WILL PREVAIL
DURING THE MIDDLE AND LATTER PARTS OF NEXT WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM SUNDAY MORNING/...
LATE SATURDAY EVENING...THE PRIMARY EAST-WEST BAND OF
SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS PRODUCING TORRENTIAL RAINFALL HAD SHIFTED TO
THE NORTH AND WAS TRAINING INTO AREAS ALONG/NORTH OF I-26.
HOWEVER...FORCING FOR ASCENT ENHANCED BY THE UPPER LOW WAS
SUPPORTING ADDITIONAL SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS OFFSHORE WHICH WILL
PUSH INTO AREAS FARTHER SOUTH...ESPECIALLY ALONG/NORTH OF THE
SAVANNAH RIVER. THESE SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS COULD ALSO PRODUCE
HEAVY RAIN. WHILE INSTABILITY COULD SUPPORT AN ISOLATED SEVERE
THUNDERSTORM ACROSS SE SC OVERNIGHT...THE PRIMARY CONCERN FOCUSES
ON ADDITIONAL HEAVY RAINFALL WHICH WILL ADD TO RECORD-SETTING
RAINFALL WHICH HAS ALREADY OCCURRED AND WILL EXACERBATE ONGOING
DANGEROUS FLASH FLOODING.

PER RECENT/EXPECTED RADAR TRENDS...POPS ARE GRADUATED FROM
CATEGORICAL NORTH TO CHANCE/SLIGHT CHANCE SOUTH.

ALSO OF NOTE...STRATUS WILL LOW TO PRODUCE AREAS OF FOG ACROSS SE
GA.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM SUNDAY MORNING THROUGH TUESDAY/...
SUNDAY INTO SUNDAY NIGHT...AN ANOMALOUS AND CUT OFF LOW MID AND
UPPER LOW OVER SOUTHERN GA/NORTHERN FL SUNDAY WILL EVENTUALLY SWING
EAST/SE INTO THE ATLANTIC SUNDAY NIGHT. CO-LOCATED UNDERNEATH THIS
LARGE SCALE FEATURE WE FIND A WEAK REGION OW SURFACE LOW PRESSURE
THAT MEANDERS OVER OR NEAR THE LOCAL CWFA. AS THE LOW ALOFT TRAVELS
EASTWARD IT/S TROPICAL CONNECTION OF DEEP AND RICH MOISTURE WILL
PIVOT FROM THE SOUTH/SE TO NORTH/NW ORIENTATION WE SAW ON SATURDAY
TO ONE THAT IS ALIGNED MORE EAST-WEST ON SUNDAY. THIS WILL TAKE THE
BAND OF HEAVIEST RAINFALL INTO OUR FAR NORTHERN SECTIONS
SUNDAY...BEFORE IT SWINGS BACK TOWARD THE EAST/SE SUNDAY NIGHT AS THE
SURFACE AND UPPER LOWS TREK INTO THE OCEAN. AS A RESULT OF THIS
TRANSITION WE HAVE EXTENDED THE FLASH FLOOD WATCH FOR THE CHARLESTON
TRI-COUNTY REGION INTO SUNDAY NIGHT...BUT ALLOW FOR IT TO EXPIRE
DURING THE AFTERNOON ON SUNDAY ACROSS THE REST OF OUR SC ZONES.

STRONG LOW LEVEL JETTING WILL CONTINUE ACROSS OUR NORTHERN ZONES AND
THAT COMBINED WITH SOME WEAK SURFACE-BASED INSTABILITY AND 0-1KM AND
0-3KM SRH AS GREAT AS 200-300 M2/SEC2 WILL YIELD A LOW-END RISK FOR
MESO-VORTICIES TO SPIN IN FROM THE OCEAN ALLOWING FOR THE RISK OF
ISOLATED TORNADOES OVER OUR SC ZONES EAST OF I-95.

TEMPS WON/T STRAY TOO FAR FROM TYPICAL EARLY OCTOBER NORMS BUT WITH
THE EXPANSIVE CLOUD COVER OUR DIURNAL RANGE WILL BE LIMITED TO ABOUT
8-12F.

MONDAY...THE NEARLY VERTICALLY STACKED SURFACE AND LOW PRESSURES
ALOFT WILL PULL A LITTLE FURTHER OFF THE SE COAST AND TAKES THE
RICHEST FEED OF DEEP MOISTURE WITH IT. HOWEVER...THERE REMAINS
ENOUGH FORCING FOR ASCENT DUE TO THE PROXIMITY TO THE LOW ALOFT AND
ALSO DUE TO A CYCLONIC INFLUX OF MOISTURE BETWEEN THE SURFACE LOW
AND A WEDGE INLAND. THIS WILL BE ENOUGH TO GENERATE HIGH-END CHANCE
TO LIKELY POPS. FOR NOW IT LOOKS LIKE THE HEAVIEST RAINS WILL HAVE
FINALLY SHUT OFF IN THE CHARLESTON TRI-COUNTY DISTRICT. NORTH/NE
TRAJECTORIES WILL ALLOW FOR COOLER TEMPS AND WITH THE TIGHTENING OF
THE GRADIENT IT/LL BE A BREEZY DAY WITH WINDS TO REACH 15-25 MPH AT
TIMES...HIGHEST NORTH AND EAST.

TUESDAY...HEIGHTS WILL GRADUALLY BUILD ALOFT BEHIND THE DEPARTING
SURFACE AND UPPER LOWS AS CONTINENTAL SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE BEGINS
TO BUILD FROM THE NW. DRIER AIR ALOFT WILL ARRIVE AS RAIN CHANCES
DROP OFF AND WE SHOULD FINALLY GET THE RETURN OF AT LEAST PARTIAL
SUNSHINE. TEMPS WILL RESPOND AS A RESULT.

&&

.LONG TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY/...
WEDNESDAY SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE TO THE NORTH BUILDS CLOSER TO THE
CWA...WHICH WILL RE-ESTABLISH THE WEDGE PATTERN. RAIN/SHOWER CHANCES
SHOULD GRADUALLY INCREASE ALONG THE COAST BY THE END OF NEXT WEEK.

&&

.AVIATION /03Z SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
KCHS...NO CHANGE IN THE OVERALL THINKING WITH PERIODS OF HEAVY RAIN
EXPECTED THROUGH THE 00Z TAF CYCLE. CIGS AND VSBYS HAVE LIFTED TO
VFR FOR A PERIOD THIS AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING BUT MVFR BACK TO
IFR CIGS ARE LIKELY TONIGHT. THE STRONG WINDS OFF THE DECK KEEPING
CIGS HIGHER INITIALLY BUT GUIDANCE LOWERS CONDITIONS OVERNIGHT AND
THIS SEEMS REASONABLE. LLWS IS MARGINAL BUT WILL CONTINUE TO MONITOR.

KSAV...IFR CIGS EXPECTED TO PERSIST OVERNIGHT...CHANCES FOR LIFR
CIGS BUT CHANCES THAT SCATTERED AREAS OF LIGHT RAIN AND DRIZZLE KEEP
VSBYS FROM GOING BELOW IFR BUT CIGS CERTAINLY COULD. IMPROVEMENT
ON SUNDAY SHOULD BE SLOW TO MVFR CIGS BY THE AFTERNOON HOURS. STILL
A CHANCE FOR SOME PCPN AROUND THE TERMINAL.

EXTENDED AVIATION OUTLOOK...AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF MVFR OR LOWER
CONDITIONS WILL PREVAIL THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT WITH LOW CEILINGS AND
OCCASIONAL REDUCED VISIBILITIES. CONDITIONS WILL IMPROVE TUESDAY
WITH VFR WEATHER TO RETURN THROUGH THURSDAY.

&&

.MARINE...
OVERNIGHT...ONGOING SMALL CRAFT ADVISORIES REMAIN IN EFFECT.
ACROSS NORTHERN WATERS...SE WINDS WILL GUST AS HIGH AS 25-30
KT...WHILE W WINDS WILL PREVAIL ACROSS SOUTHERN WATERS. SEAS
WILL RANGE FROM 6-10 FT NORTH TO 4-6 FT NEARSHORE/6-9 FT BEYOND 20
NM ACROSS GA WATERS.

SUNDAY...WEAK SURFACE LOW PRESSURE OVER OR NEAR THE COASTAL WATERS
WILL SPIRAL OVER THE ATLANTIC...GENERATING ENOUGH OF A PINCHED
GRADIENT FAR NORTH TO PRODUCE EAST/NE WINDS OF 15-25 KT...WHILE AS
ONE NAVIGATES SOUTHWARD THE FLOW SLACKENS CONSIDERABLY AND TURNS
OFFSHORE ACROSS OUR GA WATERS. SMALL CRAFT ADVISORIES WILL REMAIN IN
EFFECT FOR ALL ATLANTIC ZONES INTO AT LEAST THE AFTERNOON ESPECIALLY
DUE TO THE ELEVATED SEAS. MARINERS ARE ADVISED THAT CONDITIONS
FAVORABLE A FEW TORNADIC WATERSPOUTS WITH MODEST SPIN IN THE
ATMOSPHERE.

MONDAY...THE SURFACE WAVE WILL PULL FURTHER OUT AS HIGH PRESSURE
PERSISTS FAR INLAND...BUT THE RESULTING GRADIENT WILL TIGHTEN
BETWEEN THESE TWO FEATURES AND NORTH/NE WINDS AND SEAS WILL CLIMB
AGAIN. ADDITIONAL SMALL CRAFT ADVISORIES ARE ANTICIPATED.

TUESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY...THE COASTAL WATERS WILL LIE ON THE SE SIDE
OF EXPANSIVE CONTINENTAL HIGH PRESSURE...GENERATING ENOUGH OF AN
ONSHORE GRADIENT TO ALLOW FOR ELEVATED WINDS/SEAS AND POSSIBLE
ADVISORY THRESHOLDS FOR AT LEAST PARTS OF THE MARITIME DISTRICT.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
THE METEOROLOGICAL SETUP REMAINS ON TARGET FOR A RECORD RAINFALL
EVENT INTO SUNDAY AFTERNOON OR EVEN SUNDAY NIGHT FOR THE CHARLESTON
TRI-COUNTY AREA...WITH A POTENTIAL FOR ADDITIONAL FLASH FLOODING. A
FLASH FLOOD WATCH REMAINS IN EFFECT FOR THE CHARLESTON TRI-COUNTY
AREA INTO SUNDAY NIGHT...BUT DROPS IN THE AFTERNOON FOR THE REST OF
OUR SC COUNTIES. THE ENDING TIME OF THE WATCH HAS BEEN SHORTENED
UNTIL EARLY SUNDAY MORNING AS THE CORE OF HEAVIEST RAINS SHOULD EXIT
TO THE NORTH BY THEN...IF NOT SOONER.

MODELS GENERALLY SUPPORT THE HEAVIEST RAINFALL ACROSS
CHARLESTON...BERKELEY AND DORCHESTER COUNTIES. EXPECT AN ADDITIONAL
8-12 INCHES IN THIS AREA WITH LOCALLY HIGHER AMOUNTS POSSIBLE.
THE REST OF SC WILL EXPERIENCE AN ADDITIONAL 3-6 INCHES. BUT EVEN
A SLIGHT DEVIATION ON WHERE THE AXIS OF HEAVIEST RAIN SETS UP WILL
HAVE POTENTIALLY SIGNIFICANT IMPACT ON RAINFALL TOTALS FOR ANY ONE
LOCATION. THEREFORE IT IS IMPORTANT NOT TO FOCUS ON THE INDIVIDUAL
AMOUNTS THAT ARE BEING FORECASTED...BUT UNDERSTAND THAT THE RISK
FOR A SIGNIFICANT HEAVY RAIN AND FLASH FLOOD EVENT IS STILL VERY
HIGH. CONSIDERABLY LOWER RAIN AMOUNTS ARE EXPECTED OVER SOUTHEAST
GEORGIA...RANGE FROM ANOTHER 1-4 INCHES NEAR THE SAVANNAH RIVER TO
LESS THAN 0.5 INCHES ACROSS THE FAR SOUTHERN PORTIONS OF THE
FORECAST AREA.

FINALLY...BOTH THE SANTEE RIVER NEAR JAMESTOWN AND THE EDISTO RIVER
NEAR GIVHANS FERRY ARE FORECAST TO GO INTO FLOOD SUNDAY...EVEN INTO
MODERATE OR POTENTIALLY MAJOR FLOOD CATEGORY DURING THE MID TO LATE
WEEK. THE OGEECHEE AND SAVANNAH RIVERS COULD BOTH APPROACH ACTION
STAGE  BY MID TO LATE WEEK...PENDING THE AMOUNT OF RAIN THAT OCCURS
UPSTREAM.

&&

.TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING...
COASTAL FLOODING...BASED ON RECENT TIDAL DEPARTURES ENHANCES BY
S/SE WINDS PUSHING ADDITIONAL WATER INTO THE COAST...CONFIRMED
BY EXTRATROPICAL SURGE TRENDS...HAVE UPGRADED THE COASTAL FLOOD
ADVISORY TO A COASTAL FLOOD WARNING FOR CHARLESTON COUNTY. ON
CHARLESTON HARBOR...THE 134 AM HIGH TIDE WILL PEAK AROUND 8 FT
MLLW. COASTAL FLOOD ADVISORIES ARE IN EFFECT FOR TIDAL BERKELEY
AND COASTAL COLLETON COUNTY. HEAVY RAIN COULD WELL BE FALLING
DURING THIS HIGH TIDE CYCLE...EXACERBATING ONGOING FLASH FLOODING.

THERE REMAINS A CONCERN FOR MINOR TO PERHAPS LOCALLY MODERATE
COASTAL FLOODING WITH SEVERAL MORE HIGH TIDAL CYCLES GIVEN THE
PRE-EXISTING ELEVATED TIDES THAT NEVER COMPLETELY DRAIN OUT AND
THE PERSISTENT NORTH/NE FLOW. ADDITIONAL COASTAL FLOOD ADVISORIES
ARE EXPECTED INTO AT LEAST THE MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK. ANY RAINFALL
OCCURRING NEAR THE TIMES OF THE HIGH TIDE WOULD ONLY COMPLICATE
THE SITUATION SUNDAY AND MONDAY.

RIP CURRENTS...ROUGH SURF WILL GENERATE A HIGH RISK OF RIP CURRENTS
ALONG THE CHARLESTON BEACHES ON SUNDAY. BREAKERS ARE LOWER OVER THE
REMAINDER OF THE BEACHES AND THE FLOW IS MOSTLY OFFSHORE...ENOUGH TO
KEEP THE RISK OF RIP CURRENTS IN THE MODERATE CATEGORY.

&&

.CLIMATE...
WE WILL ESTABLISH NEW 3 DAY RECORD RAINFALL TOTALS AT CHS AND CXM.
SINCE RAIN IS FALLING...WE WILL TABULATE TOTALS AT THE END OF THE
OCT 3 CALENDER DAY.
