...COASTAL FLOOD ADVISORY IN EFFECT FROM 11 PM THIS EVENING TO
4 AM EDT SUNDAY...

THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE IN CHARLESTON HAS ISSUED A COASTAL
FLOOD ADVISORY...WHICH IS IN EFFECT FROM 11 PM THIS EVENING TO
4 AM EDT SUNDAY.

* LOCATION...COASTAL AREAS OF COLLETON COUNTY.

* TIMING...RISK OF FLOODING IS GREATEST A FEW HOURS EITHER SIDE OF
  HIGH TIDE WHICH WILL BE AT 134 AM SUNDAY IN CHARLESTON HARBOR.

* TIDE LEVELS...PEAKING AROUND 8.2 FEET MEAN LOWER LOW WATER IN 
  CHARLESTON HARBOR AROUND THE TIME OF HIGH TIDE AT 104 PM.

* COASTAL FLOOD IMPACTS...INUNDATION OF SALTWATER IN AND NEAR LOW-
  LYING COASTAL AREAS COULD LEAD TO SOME ROAD CLOSURES AND
  FLOODING OF PROPERTIES. FLOODING COULD BE WORSE IF HEAVY RAINS
  OCCUR AROUND HIGH TIDE.

* BREAKING WAVE HEIGHTS...5 TO 6 FEET WITH OCCASIONAL BREAKERS 
  AS HIGH AS 7 FEET.

* HIGH SURF IMPACTS...LARGE BREAKING WAVES WILL BE DANGEROUS TO 
  ANYONE WHO ENTERS THE SURF. THERE WILL ALSO BE DANGEROUS RIP 
  CURRENTS AND POSSIBLE BEACH EROSION.

* RIP CURRENTS...WIND AND WAVE CONDITIONS SUPPORT THE DEVELOPMENT
  OF VERY STRONG RIP CURRENTS. THESE RIP CURRENTS WILL BE LIFE
  THREATENING TO ANYONE WHO ENTERS THE SURF.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

BE PREPARED TO PROTECT LIFE AND PROPERTY BEFORE FLOODING OCCURS.
IF DRIVING...BE PREPARED FOR ROAD CLOSURES AND DO NOT ATTEMPT TO
DRIVE THROUGH WATER OF UNKNOWN DEPTH.

EVERYONE SHOULD REMAIN OUT OF THE WATER. MARINERS SHOULD USE
EXTREME CAUTION...ESPECIALLY NEAR INLETS...CUTS AND BAYS. SWELLS
APPROACHING THESE AREAS CAN LEAD TO LARGE...DANGEROUS BREAKING
WAVES. KEEP A CLEAR DISTANCE AWAY FROM THE OCEAN. STRUCTURES SUCH
AS PIERS AND JETTIES WILL BE PARTICULARLY TREACHEROUS.

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHARLESTON SC
125 AM EDT SAT OCT 3 2015

...RECORD RAINFALL AND LIFE-THREATENING FLASH FLOODING POSSIBLE THROUGH
SUNDAY...

.SYNOPSIS...
LOW PRESSURE DEVELOPING ALONG THE FLORIDA COAST WILL MOVE SLOWLY
NORTH THROUGH TONIGHT...THEN MOVE ALONG OR JUST OFF THE COAST
SATURDAY INTO SATURDAY NIGHT...PERHAPS LIFTING INLAND ON
SUNDAY...THEN MOVING AWAY EARLY NEXT WEEK. HIGH PRESSURE WILL THEN
PREVAIL DURING THE MID AND LATE WEEK PERIOD. MEANWHILE...HURRICANE
JOAQUIN WILL PASS WELL OFFSHORE THROUGH THE WEEKEND WITH NO
SIGNIFICANT IMPACTS ON THE LOCAL AREA.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM THIS MORNING/...
HEAVY RAIN HAS BEEN FOCUSED ACROSS UPPER CHARLESTON SO FAR THIS
MORNING WHERE POCKETS OF 4-6 INCH RAINS HAVE A LIKELY OCCURRED.
HIGH RESOLUTION MODELS SHOW THE BAND SLOWLY MOVING WEST/SOUTHWEST
OVER THE COMING HOURS IN RESPONSE TO THE UPPER LOW DROPPING A BIT
FARTHER TO THE SOUTHEAST. ACTIVITY WILL CONTINUE TO FOCUS WITHIN A
BAND OF ENHANCED 850-700 HPA INFLOW. CONVECTION WILL ALSO INCREASE
WITH SHOWALTER VALUES DROPPING WELL BELOW 0C. THIS WILL ONLY
ENHANCE THE RISK FOR HEAVY RAINS OVERNIGHT. HAVE REORIENTED THE
POP FORECAST AND QPF SLIGHTLY TO REFLECT GOING TRENDS. THE NEAR
TERM RISK FOR FLASH FLOODING REMAINS OVER CHARLESTON AND BERKELEY
COUNTIES WHERE A FLASH FLOOD WARNING IS IN EFFECT UNTIL 515 AM.

THE COASTAL FRONT HAS REACHED THE BEACHES OF CHARLESTON COUNTY
WHERE BOTH FOLLY BEACH AND ISLE OF PALMS ARE NOW IN THE 70S. THE
COASTAL FRONT WILL MEANDER INLAND OVER THE NEXT FEW
HOURS...HOWEVER IT IT UNCLEAR EXACTLY HOW FAR IT WILL PENETRATE.
THERE WILL BE A RISK FOR ISOLATED TORNADOES ALONG CHARLESTON AND
BERKELEY COUNTIES THROUGH SUNRISE THERE THE LATEST RAP SHOWS
INCREASING INSTABILITY AND 0-1KM HELICITY.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM THIS MORNING THROUGH MONDAY/...
SATURDAY AND SATURDAY NIGHT...THE LATEST CONSENSUS FORECAST IS STILL
SHOWING A HIGH POTENTIAL OF HEAVY RAINS AND DANGEROUS FLASH FLOODING
ACROSS PARTS OF THE CWFA. WHAT IS A LITTLE LESS CERTAIN IS ACTUALLY
WHERE THE BAND OR BANDS OF EXTREMELY HEAVY RAINS WILL SET
UP...ALIGNED IN AN EAST/SE TO WEST/NW ORIENTATION. OUR LATEST
THINKING IS THAT THE AXIS OF HEAVIEST AND POTENTIAL RECORD SETTING
RAINFALL WILL OCCUR ACROSS A GOOD PART OF THE CHARLESTON QUAD-COUNTY
DISTRICT INTO PERHAPS PARTS OF BEAUFORT...HAMPTON AND ALLENDALE
COUNTIES. BUT THERE WILL BE A VERY SHARP NORTH TO SOUTH GRADIENT OF
QPF RANGING FROM 8-10 INCHES NORTH AND CENTRAL DOWN TO 1 INCH OR
LESS FAR SOUTH. LOCALLY HIGHER AMOUNTS THOUGH WILL OCCUR. THE
GROUNDS ARE SATURATED IN MANY AREAS...SO ANY ADDITIONAL RAIN WILL
ESSENTIALLY JUST RUN-OFF RATHER THAN BEING ABSORBED IN THE GROUND.

A DYNAMIC AND HIGHLY ANOMALOUS CLOSED OFF MID AND UPPER LOW WILL
MEANDER IN FAR SW GA AS IT ASSOCIATED TROUGH TAKES ON A NEGATIVE
TILT AS STRONG SHORT WAVE ENERGY SWINGS THROUGH THE TROUGH ALOFT. AT
THE SURFACE A STRONG BAROCLINIC ZONE WILL BE SITUATED NOT FAR OFF
THE SE COAST WHERE WE FIND A COASTAL WARM FRONT STUCK BETWEEN THE
GULF STREAM AND THE CONTINENTAL SHELF. WHILE THE ONGOING RAINS MAY
ACT TO RE-ENFORCE THE ONGOING WEDGE...THIS IS COUNTER-BALANCED BY A
WAVE OF LOW PRESSURE ALONG THE FRONT THAT WILL LIFT NORTH NEAR OR
JUST OFF THE GA/SC COASTS. THIS ALLOWS FOR THE WARM FRONT TO PIVOT
TOWARD OR ONSHORE OF THE FORECAST AREA LATER SATURDAY INTO SATURDAY
NIGHT.

ABNORMALLY HIGH PWATS AS MUCH AS 2.5 INCHES WILL BE DRAWN NORTH IN A
DEEP AND RICH TROPICAL FEED OF MOISTURE THAT HAS ITS ORIGINS FROM
THE EASTERN PACIFIC ACROSS THE CARIBBEAN AND SW ATLANTIC. THIS
SOUTHERLY FLOW ALOFT WILL BE ATOP AN EAST-SE FLOW OFF THE ATLANTIC
DOWNSTAIRS GENERATING THE POTENTIAL FOR RECORD SETTING
RAINFALL...WHILE IT/S BECOME APPARENT THAT OUR RISK FOR FLASH
FLOODING WILL BE HIGHEST DURING THE FIRST HALF OF THE WEEKEND.
HEIGHT FALLS ALOFT...UPPER DIFLUENCE AND STRONG PVA WILL COMBINE
WITH STRONG LOW LEVEL FORCING DUE TO THE PROXIMITY TO THE COASTAL
WARM FRONT AND SURFACE WAVE COMBINE WITH A ROBUST LOW LEVEL JET TO
PRODUCE 100 POPS ACROSS MUCH OF THE CWFA.

IF THE EXTREME RAINFALL IS NOT ENOUGH...THERE IS ALSO THE LOW END
RISK OF ISOLATED TORNADOES AS THE COASTAL WARM FRONT ATTEMPTS TO
SWING ONSHORE. WHILE THE WIDESPREAD RAINS WILL RESTRICT SURFACE-
BASED INSTABILITY...THERE IS MODEST 0-1 KM AND 0-3 KM SRH VALUES AS
HIGH AS 200 M2/SEC2. FOR NOW THE BEST RISK OF ANY LOW-TOPPED
TORNADOES LOOKS TO BE EAST OF I-95...WITH THE GREATEST POTENTIAL
OVER THE COASTAL COUNTIES OF SC. FOR ALL SECTIONS GIVEN ELEVATED
INSTABILITY WE WILL CARRY SLIGHT CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS
SATURDAY/SATURDAY NIGHT.

TEMPS ARE HIGHLY DEPENDENT UPON HOW FAR INLAND THE COASTAL WARM
FRONT CAN PENETRATE...WITH A LARGE EAST-WEST GRADIENT TO OCCUR.

SUNDAY THROUGH MONDAY...THE ROBUST MID/UPPER LOW WILL SLIDE EASTWARD
ACROSS SOUTHERN GA SUNDAY AND THEN INTO THE NEARBY ATLANTIC MONDAY.
THE WAVE OF SURFACE LOW PRESSURE STUCK UNDERNEATH WILL BE LOCATED
OVER OR NEAR SUNDAY BEFORE IT TOO STARTS TO SLIP INTO THE ATLANTIC
ON MONDAY. THE MAIN AXIS OF DEEP MOISTURE WILL SHIFT NORTH/EAST
DURING SUNDAY...ALLOWING FOR A DIMINISHING TREND TO THE CONVECTIVE
RAINS. THEN ON MONDAY THE INLAND WEDGE RE-ESTABLISHES ITSELF AND THE
ASSOCIATED LOW LEVEL CONVERGENCE BETWEEN THIS FEATURE AND THE
SURFACE WAVE WILL ALLOW FOR THE MAIN MOISTURE AXIS TO PIVOT BACK IN
FROM THE NW. WHILE THERE WILL STILL BE CATEGORICAL POPS FAR NORTH
SUNDAY...COVERAGE ELSEWHERE WILL DECREASE INTO THE CHANCE-LIKELY
RANGE...THEN TO THE SLIGHT CHANCE-CHANCE RANGE SUNDAY NIGHT...BACK
UP TO THE CHANCE RANGE ALL SECTIONS MONDAY. TEMPS WILL NOT BE TOO
FAR FROM NORMAL.

&&

.LONG TERM /MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY/...
THE MID/UPPER LOW WILL EVENTUALLY FILL AND LIFTS OUT TO THE EAST/NE
BY MID WEEK...FOLLOWED BY QUASI-ZONAL FLOW OR SHORT WAVE RIDGING
ALOFT THEREAFTER. AN INLAND WEDGE WILL PREVAIL ALTHOUGH MOISTURE HAS
BEEN SCOURED OUT BY THEN TO ALLOW FOR MUCH DRIER CONDITIONS WITH NO
EXTREMES OF TEMPS THROUGH THE PERIOD.

&&

.AVIATION /06Z SATURDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
KCHS...STRONG UPPER DYNAMICS COUPLED WITH A VERY DEEP TROPICAL
MOISTURE TAP SPELL PERIODS OF TORRENTIAL RAINFALL DURING THE 06Z TAF
CYCLE. THE MAIN PROBLEMS WILL BE TIMING THE VARIOUS PERIODS OF LOW
VSBYS IN HEAVY RAINS. GIVEN 00Z MODELS AND LATEST RADAR TRENDS WILL
WE SHOW A TEMPO FOR HEAVIER RAIN LATE TONIGHT AS THE WARM FRONT
NEARS. PREVAILING HEAVY RAINS ON SAT. OTHER ISSUES MAY INCLUDE TSTMS
AT SOME POINT TODAY. WIND SHEAR BECOMES IMPRESSIVE AND CANNOT RULE
OUT GUSTY CONVECTIVE WINDS IF WE WARM SUFFICIENTLY. IFR CIGS ARE
MOST LIKELY BUT PERIODS OF MVFR ARE POSSIBLE.

KSAV...IFR CIGS LIKELY OVERNIGHT...CHANCES FOR LIFR CIGS BUT
INCREASING CHANCES THAT SCATTERED AREAS OF LIGHT RAIN AND DRIZZLE
KEEP VSBYS FROM GOING BELOW IFR. TODAY...UNSETTLED WEATHER
CONDITIONS WITH IFR TO LOW END MVFR CIGS AND THE TERMINAL CLOSE
TO THE EDGE OF EXPECTED RAIN SHIELD. WINDS WILL BE MAINLY LIGHT
AFTER SUNRISE WITH VARIABLE WINDS AT TIMES.

EXTENDED AVIATION OUTLOOK...AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF MVFR OR LOWER
CONDITIONS WITH LOW CEILINGS...MODERATE TO OCCASIONALLY HEAVY
RAINS AND EVEN THE RISK OF ISOLATED TSRA ARE EXPECTED THROUGH THE
WEEKEND...ESPECIALLY AT KCHS. CONDITIONS SHOULD BEGIN IMPROVING
SUNDAY INTO MONDAY.

&&

.MARINE...
OVERNIGHT...THE ONLY CHANGE WAS TO HOIST A SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY FOR
THE CHARLESTON HARBOR AS MIXING SHOULD INCREASE AS THE COASTAL
FRONT MOVES INLAND. ALSO INCREASED WINDS SLIGHTLY CHARLESTON
COUNTY WATERS.

SATURDAY AND SATURDAY NIGHT...HAZARDOUS MARINE CONDITIONS WILL OCCUR
IN RESPONSE TO ELONGATED LOW PRESSURE NEAR THE SAVANNAH RIVER
ENTRANCE...WHILE ITS ASSOCIATED WARM FRONT INITIALLY OVER THE
MARINE AREA SWINGS ONSHORE. STRONG LOW LEVEL JETTING OVER THE SC
WATERS WILL ALLOW FOR NE/EAST WINDS TO PEAK AS HIGH AS 20-30 KT OVER
THE OPEN ATLANTIC...WHILE FURTHER SOUTH THE FLOW WILL BE OFFSHORE
WITH SPEEDS CAPPED AT OR BELOW 15 KT. SEAS WILL BUILD MOST FAVORABLY
WITH THE ONSHORE FETCH TO AS MUCH AS 7-11 FT ON THE SC WATERS AND
RANGING FROM 5-7 FT ACROSS THE 0-20 NM GA WATERS BU UP TO 8-11 FT
FURTHER OUT. THESE ELEVATED SEAS ARE FURTHER COMPLICATED BY SEVERAL
PRIOR DAYS OF ONSHORE WINDS...BUT ALSO NOW DUE TO SWELLS ORIGINATING
FROM HURRICANE JOAQUIN. THESE CONDITIONS HAVE ALLOWED FOR A
CONTINUATION OF THE SMALL CRAFT ADVISORIES FOR OUR ATLANTIC ZONES.
WE CONSIDERED RAISING AN ADVISORY FOR THE CHARLESTON HARBOR...BUT
DUE TO SOME UNCERTAINTY IN THE EXACT PINCHING OF THE GRADIENT WE
HAVE HELD OFF AT THIS TIME AS WE CAPPED WINDS AT 15-20 KT. THERE IS
ALSO A RISK FOR WATERSPOUTS IN RESPONSE TO THE NEARBY WARM FRONT
WITH MODEST SPIN IN THE LOWER ATMOSPHERE.

SUNDAY...WEAK LOW PRESSURE WILL SPIRAL INLAND OVER THE
CWFA...ALLOWING FOR THE GRADIENT TO SLACKEN CONSIDERABLY AS WINDS
DROP OFF TO 15 KT OR LESS ALL WATERS. BUT SEAS WILL TAKE LONGER TO
COME DOWN SO SMALL CRAFT ADVISORIES REMAIN IN EFFECT.

MONDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY...CONDITIONS WILL CONTINUE TO IMPROVE AS
THE UPPER LEVEL LOW OVER THE SOUTHEAST COAST MOVES EASTWARD...OUT TO
SEA...ALLOWING THE SURFACE PRESSURE GRADIENT TO FURTHER WEAKEN AND
WINDS TO EASE. SEAS WILL BE SLOWER TO SUBSIDE DUE TO REMNANT SWELL
ENERGY...ESPECIALLY BEYOND 20 NM OUT. THE SMALL CRAFT ADVISORIES
WITHIN 20 NM WILL GRADUALLY COME DOWN AS CONDITIONS IMPROVE THROUGH
TUESDAY. NO ADVISORIES ARE EXPECTED ON WEDNESDAY.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
CONFIDENCE HAS INCREASED FOR A POTENTIAL FOR A RECORD RAINFALL EVENT
TONIGHT INTO SUNDAY MORNING. AS A RESULT A FLASH FLOOD WATCH IS IN
EFFECT FOR ALL OF SOUTHEAST SOUTH CAROLINA THROUGH SUNDAY AND FOR
THE GEORGIA COUNTIES ALONG THE SAVANNAH RIVER THROUGH SATURDAY
NIGHT. THIS INCLUDES THE SAVANNAH METRO AREA. MODELS HAVE SHOWN SOME
DEVIATION IN THE PLACEMENT OF EXACTLY WHERE THE HEAVIEST RAINFALL
WILL BECOME ALIGNED ACROSS THE CWFA. BUT FOR THE LATEST FORECAST WE
LEANED HEAVILY TOWARD THE QPF AS DEPICTED BY WPC...BLENDED WITH
SURROUNDING OFFICES AND UTILIZING THE PREVIOUS FORECAST FROM OUR
OFFICE. THIS LOOKS TO BE AHEAD OF THE WAVE OF LOW PRESSURE AND
STRETCHES FROM NEAR THE CHARLESTON METRO TO NOT FAR FROM THE
BEAUFORT AREA...THEN INLAND TO MONCKS CORNER...WALTERBORO AND PARTS
OF ALLENDALE AND HAMPTON COUNTIES. OUR LATEST STORM TOTAL QPF SHOWS
IMPRESSIVE AMOUNTS OF 8-12 INCHES IN SC...BUT LOCALLY HIGHER AMOUNTS
WILL OCCUR.

FARTHER SOUTH...THERE WILL BE CONSIDERABLY LESS RAINFALL WITH
AMOUNTS RANGING FROM LESS THAN INCH ACROSS THE ALTAMAHA RIVER TO 3-6
INCHES NEAR THE SAVANNAH RIVER. AGAIN LOCALLY HIGHER AMOUNTS ARE
POSSIBLE AND IT IS WORTH NOTING THAT SOME OF THE MODELS SHOW THE
MAIN AXIS SETTING UP NEAR THE SAVANNAH RIVER.

DESPITE THIS FORECAST...KEEP IN MIND THAT ANY SLIGHT DEVIATION OF
WHERE THE AXIS OF HEAVIEST RAINS SETS UP COULD RESULT IN A
SIGNIFICANT QPF.

COMPLICATING THE FLOODING SCENARIO IS THE CONTINUATION OF THE
ELEVATED VERY HIGH TIDES THROUGH THE WEEKEND. IF HEAVY RAINFALL
OCCURS ALONG THE COAST NEAR HIGH TIDE...IT WILL ONLY EXACERBATE THE
FLOODING AND RESULT IN A POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS AND LIFE-THREATENING
SITUATION. THE LATEST SURGE GUIDANCE IN THE CHARLESTON HARBOR SHOWS
TIDES REACHING OVER 8 FT WITH HIGH TIDE EARLY SATURDAY AFTERNOON
WHILE HEAVY RAIN IS FALLING. IF THIS SCENARIO MATERIALIZES...A VERY
DANGEROUS FLASH FLOOD EVENT WOULD ENSUE. WE CAN NOT STRESS ENOUGH
THAT ALL RESIDENTS AND VISITORS SHOULD BE PREPARED FOR THIS SCENARIO.

FINALLY...THERE WILL BE AN INCREASED RISK FOR RIVER FLOODING OVER
THE COMING DAYS ONCE THE CORE OF THE HEAVIEST RAINS HAVE ENDED. THE
LATEST SET OF METEOROLOGICAL MODEL ENSEMBLE RIVER FORECASTS
/MMERF/...SHOW A NUMBER OF RIVERS GOING INTO FLOOD OVER THE NEXT 5
TO 7 DAYS.

&&

.TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING...
COASTAL FLOODING...COASTAL FLOOD WATCH ISSUED FOR TIDAL BERKELEY...
CHARLESTON AND COASTAL COLLETON TO THE POTENTIAL FOR TIDES SURPASSING
8 FT MLLW IN THE CHARLESTON HARBOR.

RIP CURRENTS...A HIGH RISK FOR LIFE-THREATENING RIP CURRENTS WILL
REMAIN AT ALL BEACHES THROUGH SATURDAY DUE TO THE ELEVATED
SURF...FURTHER COMPLICATED BY MODERATE TO STRONG ON SHORE WINDS OVER
THE SC BEACHES.

HIGH SURF...SEAS WILL INCREASE SIGNIFICANTLY THIS WEEKEND AND A HIGH
SURF ADVISORY COULD EVENTUALLY BE NEEDED FOR THE LOWER SOUTH
CAROLINA COAST WHERE THE STRONGEST ONSHORE FLOW WILL OCCUR. LATEST
LOCAL GUIDANCE SUPPORTS 4 TO 5 FT BREAKERS IMPACTING AT LEAST
CHARLESTON AND COLLETON COUNTY COASTAL AREAS. SHOULD THIS COME TO
FRUITION THEN A HIGH SURF ADVISORY WOULD BE REQUIRED. WE HAVE HELD
OFF ON ANY ADVISORY AT THIS TIME GIVEN SOME UNCERTAINTY IN REGARDS
TO THE TRACK OF THE SURFACE WAVE AND ASSOCIATED COASTAL WARM FRONT.

AREAS OF BEACH EROSION WILL ALSO OCCUR DUE TO THE WAVE ACTION AND
PERSISTENT NORTHEAST WINDS.
