AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHARLESTON SC
347 PM EDT WED JUL 22 2015

.SYNOPSIS...
A STATIONARY FRONT WILL REMAIN JUST NORTH OF THE AREA TONIGHT.
A COLD FRONT IS EXPECTED TO MOVE IN FROM THE NORTH THURSDAY
NIGHT...THEN SHIFT SOUTH OF THE AREA BY EARLY WEEKEND. AN AREA OF
LOW PRESSURE MAY DEVELOP ON THE FRONT OFF THE FLORIDA COAST AND
THEN MOVE BY THE SOUTHEAST COAST EARLY NEXT WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM THURSDAY MORNING/...
A HEAT ADVISORY REMAINS IN EFFECT THROUGH THE AFTERNOON MAINLY
SOUTH OF I-16 OUTSIDE OF AREAS THAT SEE RAIN...AS HEAT INDEX
VALUES WILL PEAK NEAR 110 DEGREES. OTHERWISE...SOME UPPER LEVEL
ENERGY LOOKS TO HELP A WEAK SURFACE LOW DEVELOP NEAR THE NC/SC
BORDER. EXPECT MUCH OF THE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS STILL AROUND
EARLY THIS EVENING TO DIMINISH WITH LOWERING INSTABILITY BUT
CAN/T RULE OUT SOME ISOLATED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS LINGERING
LONGER INTO THE OVERNIGHT...ESPECIALLY OVER THE ATLANTIC WHERE THE
GREATER INSTABILITY WILL BE. LOWS WILL RANGE FROM THE MID TO UPPER
70S INLAND TO CLOSER TO 80 AT THE COAST.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM THURSDAY MORNING THROUGH SATURDAY/...
THURSDAY...A BROAD MID LVL TROUGH OF LOW PRESSURE WILL EXTEND ACROSS
MUCH OF THE EASTERN CONUS WHILE A SERIES OF H5 SHORTWAVES ROUND ITS
SOUTHERN PERIPHERY OVER THE SOUTHEASTERN UNITED STATES. THESE MID
LVL WAVES ALONG WITH DEVELOPING SFC LOW PRESSURE SHOULD PROVIDE
AMPLE FORCING AND LOW-LVL CONVERGENCE FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
DURING AFTERNOON AND EVENING HOURS. TEMPS WILL BE WARM...IN THE
MID/UPPER 90S AWAY FROM THE COAST. A FEW STORMS COULD ALSO BE STRONG
WITH DAMAGING WIND GUSTS...BUT THE THREAT OF WIDESPREAD SEVERE
WEATHER WILL BE LOW. CHANCES OF SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS WILL PERSIST
INTO MUCH OF THURSDAY NIGHT AS A COLD FRONT BEGINS TO SHIFT SOUTH
OVER THE AREA LATE. OVERNIGHT LOWS SHOULD RANGE IN THE MID/UPPER 70S.

FRIDAY AND SATURDAY...A SLIGHT CHANGE TO THE PATTERN IS ANTICIPATED
EARLY THIS WEEKEND AS A RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS OVER THE
CENTRAL UNITED STATES AND HELPS FORCE A SFC COLD FRONT SOUTHWARD
THROUGH THE AREA. AT LEAST CHANCES OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL
REMAIN IN THE FORECAST ON FRIDAY INTO EARLY SATURDAY...UNTIL THE
COLD FRONT/AREA OF LOW PRESSURE FINALLY SHIFTS SOUTH OF THE AREA.
GREATER CHANCES OF PRECIP ARE ANTICIPATED OVER SOUTHEAST GEORGIA
WHERE INSTABILITY AND CONVERGENCE WILL BE GREATER AHEAD OF THE
FRONT. HIGH PRESSURE WILL THEN BUILD FROM THE NORTH...LEADING TO
SLIGHTLY DRYER CONDITIONS AND SOME RELIEF TO MAX TEMPS. IN
GENERAL...HIGH TEMPS WILL RANGE IN THE LOW/MID 90S ON FRIDAY...THEN
COOL A DEGREE OR TWO ON SATURDAY. OVERNIGHT LOWS WILL RANGE IN THE
MID 70S AWAY FROM THE COAST.

&&

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
THE FIRST PART OF THIS PERIOD LOOKS TO BE FAIRLY DRY WITH HIGHS
NEAR NORMAL LEVELS. THERE IS CONCERN THE THE COLD FRONT WHICH WILL
STALL FROM THE ATLANTIC OCEAN EAST OF FLORIDA ACROSS FLORIDA INTO
THE GULF OF MEXICO COULD BE THE BREADING GROUNDS FOR A TROPICAL OR
SUBTROPICAL SYSTEM DURING THIS TIME PERIOD. MODELS HAVE BEEN
HINTING OF THIS FOR SOME TIME...BUT THERE IS INCREASING CONCERN
WITH SOMETHING FORMING NORTH OF BAHAMAS OR OFF THE NORTHEAST
FLORIDA COAST SUNDAY OR MONDAY AND THEN SHIFTING NORTH/NORTHEAST...
LIKELY STAYING WELL OFF THE SOUTHEAST COAST.

&&

.AVIATION /19Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
MOSTLY VFR. PROBABILITIES FOR SHOWERS AND TSTMS TO IMPACT THE
TERMS THIS AFTN INTO THE EVE AT EITHER TERMINAL ARE LOW BUT
SLIGHTLY HIGHER AT KSAV SO INCLUDED A VCTS MENTION THERE FROM
21-01Z WHEN WE THINK THE HIGHEST RISK IS...ALTHOUGH COULD BE
SOONER. ALSO...SMALL RISK FOR SOME MVFR VSBYS IN FOG AT KCHS
TOWARD DAYBREAK.

EXTENDED AVIATION OUTLOOK...VFR CONDITIONS WILL PREVAIL AT BOTH CHS
AND SAV TERMINALS. HOWEVER...FLIGHT RESTRICTIONS WILL BE POSSIBLE
DURING AFTERNOON SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS...GREATEST CHANCES BEFORE THE
WEEKEND.

&&

.MARINE...
TONIGHT...ANOTHER MODEST NOCTURNAL SURGE IS EXPECTED AS LOW
PRESSURE DEVELOPS ALONG THE NORTH CAROLINA-SOUTH CAROLINA BORDER
AFTER MIDNIGHT. SPEEDS LOOK TO MAX OUT IN THE 15-20 KT RANGE WITH
GUSTS POTENTIALLY APPROACHING 25 KT. DO NOT ANTICIPATE THE NEED
FOR A SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY WITH THIS SURGE...ALTHOUGH IT COULD BE
CLOSE FOR THE GEORGIA OFFSHORE WATERS AND THE CHARLESTON COUNTY
WATERS. SEAS WILL BUILD TO 2-4 FT OVERNIGHT.

THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY...CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED TO REMAIN BELOW
SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY LEVELS THIS WEEKEND AND INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK. A
WEAK COLD FRONT SHOULD SHIFT SOUTH THROUGH THE WATERS THURSDAY NIGHT
THROUGH FRIDAY...WITH HIGH PRESSURE THEN NUDGING INTO THE AREA FROM
THE NORTH LATE WEEKEND AND INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK. IN GENERAL...WINDS
WILL REMAIN AT OR BELOW 15 KTS...WITH A FEW GUSTS TO 15-20 KTS OVER
OFFSHORE GEORGIA WATERS. SEAS WILL RANGE BETWEEN 2-4 FT. WINDS/SEAS
COULD VARY DURING THUNDERSTORMS.
