AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHARLESTON SC
735 PM EDT THU SEP 10 2015

.SYNOPSIS...
ATLANTIC HIGH PRESSURE WILL PREVAIL THROUGH FRIDAY...ALTHOUGH AN
UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE WILL MOVE THROUGH TONIGHT. A COLD FRONT WILL
MOVE ACROSS THE AREA FROM THE NORTHWEST OVER THE WEEKEND...FOLLOWED
BY DRY HIGH PRESSURE THROUGH EARLY NEXT WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM FRIDAY MORNING/...
THIS EVENING AND TONIGHT...A MID LVL RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE WILL
EXTEND ACROSS MUCH OF THE SOUTHEAST COAST WHILE A BROAD MID LVL
TROUGH OF LOW PRESSURE EXTENDS OVER THE CENTRAL UNITED STATES AND
THE MIDWEST. AT THE SFC...HIGH PRESSURE WILL PERSIST OFF THE
SOUTHEAST COAST WHILE AN AXIS OF LOW PRESSURE EXTENDS SOUTHWARD
ACROSS THE MIDLANDS IN ADVANCE OF A H5 SHORTWAVE MAKING WAY TOWARD
THE AREA.

LATEST WATER VAPOR IMAGERY DEPICTS A STRONG SHORTWAVE SHIFTING OVER
ALABAMA AND WESTERN GEORGIA...HELPING SPAWN CLUSTERS OF SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS TO OUR WEST AND SOUTHWEST. AS THE SHORTWAVE SHIFTS
INTO THE AREA THIS EVENING...SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM COVERAGE WILL
INCREASE WITHIN DEEP LAYERED MOISTURE CHARACTERIZED BY PWATS BETWEEN
1.8 TO 2.0 INCHES. SBCAPES BETWEEN 3000-3500 J/KG...DCAPE AROUND 900
J/KG AND BULK SHEAR BETWEEN 30-35 KT...SUGGEST A FEW STORMS COULD BE
STRONG AND/OR SEVERE THIS EVENING WITH DAMAGING WIND GUSTS BEING THE
PRIMARY THREAT. BEST CHANCES OF STRONGER STORMS SHOULD OCCUR INLAND.
HIRES MODELS INDICATE CONVECTION TO BE IN THE FORM OF A LINE AND/OR
CLUSTERS THAT GRADUALLY WEAKEN WHILE APPROACHING THE COAST EARLY
OVERNIGHT. THIS SCENARIO SUPPORTS A TYPICAL TREND OFTEN SEEN WHEN
DIURNAL HEATING IS LOST WITH SUNSET.

GREATEST CHANCES OF THUNDERSTORMS ARE STILL EXPECTED TO OCCUR AWAY
FROM THE COAST WITH SLIGHTLY GREATER CONFIDENCE IN TIMING THAN
PREVIOUS FORECASTS. IN GENERAL...HAVE INCREASED POPS FOR ALL AREAS
EARLY TONIGHT...WITH SLIGHTLY HIGHER CHANCES BETWEEN 40-45 POPS IN
SOUTHEAST GEORGIA. MOST SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS SHOULD DIMINISH
AFTER MIDNIGHT...BUT HAVE MAINTAINED SLIGHT CHANCES OVER ALL AREAS
DUE TO THE PROXIMITY OF H5 LVL ENERGY ALOFT. OVERNIGHT LOW TEMPS
SHOULD RANGE IN THE LOW/MID 70S.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM FRIDAY MORNING THROUGH SUNDAY/...
FRIDAY AND FRIDAY NIGHT...THE FORECAST AREA WILL START THE DAY
WITHIN THE BROAD TROUGHING IN PLACE ALOFT ACROSS THE EASTERN HALF OF
THE CONUS. AS THE DAY PROGRESSES...THE FLOW WILL BEGIN TO AMPLIFY AS
A POTENT SHORTWAVE DIVES OUT OF THE UPPER MIDWEST AND INTO THE MEAN
TROUGH. WITHIN THE WEST-SOUTHWEST FLOW...SOME SHORTWAVE ENERGY IS
PROGGED TO CROSS THE SOUTHERN PORTION OF THE FORECAST AREA AS IT
MOVES THROUGH NORTHERN FLORIDA. AT THE SURFACE...A WELL DEFINED
SURFACE TROUGH AND WEAK AREA OF LOW PRESSURE WILL SIT INLAND WITH A
PRONOUNCED MOISTURE GRADIENT ACROSS THE REGION. INLAND AREAS WILL
SEE PWATS DOWN INTO THE 1.2 INCH RANGE WHILE VALUES ALONG THE COAST
WILL BE IN THE 1.8 TO 1.9 INCH RANGE. IN FACT...WITHIN THE WEST TO
WEST-SOUTHWEST PREVAILING LOW LEVEL FLOW WE MAY EVEN SEE DEW POINTS
MIX OUT A GOOD DEAL INLAND. AS SUCH...THE MAIN FORECAST CHANGE WAS
TO TIGHTEN THE POP GRADIENT FROM INLAND TO THE COAST WITH JUST
SLIGHT CHANCE POPS INLAND. FURTHER SOUTH AND ALONG THE COAST...40-50
POPS ARE STILL IN PLACE AND SEEM WELL PLACED BASED ON THE MOST
RECENT MODEL GUIDANCE. WITH THE WESTERLY COMPONENT OF THE SURFACE
FLOW IT WILL BE YET ANOTHER WARM DAY WITH HIGHS REACHING INTO THE 89-
91 DEGREE RANGE JUST ABOUT EVERYWHERE...WHICH IS ABOUT 4-6 DEGREES
ABOVE CLIMO. OVERNIGHT...ANY DIURNAL CONVECTION WILL BECOME FOCUSED
OVER THE COASTAL WATERS. WE MAINTAINED SLIGHT CHANCE POPS ACROSS ALL
LAND AREAS AS WE CANNOT TOTALLY RULE OUT A FEW SHOWERS BEING AROUND.
EXPECT LOWS IN THE LOW TO MID 70S.

SATURDAY AND SATURDAY NIGHT...THE BULK OF THE FORECAST CHALLENGE
WILL COME FOR THE FIRST HALF OF THE WEEKEND. A SHARP AND ANOMALOUSLY
STRONG...500 MB HEIGHTS 3 TO 4 STANDARD DEVIATIONS BELOW
NORMAL...SHORTWAVE IS PROGGED TO DIVE INTO THE TENNESSEE VALLEY AND
PUSH TOWARD THE SOUTHERN APPALACHIANS. LARGE SCALE FORCING WILL
INCREASE ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA THANKS TO BEING IN THE RIGHT
ENTRANCE REGION OF A STRENGTHENING 130 KNOT 300 MB JET. THIS SHOULD
HELP PROVIDE SUFFICIENT LIFT EVEN IN THE POTENTIAL ABSENCE OF STRONG
SURFACE HEATING AHEAD OF A COLD FRONT. MODELS SHOW A GOOD AMOUNT OF
HIGH CLOUDS STREAMING INTO THE AREA BEGINNING IN THE MORNING WHICH
COULD HELP TO KEEP INSOLATION LIMITED...REDUCING TEMPERATURES AND
SURFACE BASED INSTABILITY. SOMETIMES THE MODELS HAVE A HABIT OF
PRODUCING TOO MUCH OPAQUE CLOUD COVER THAT FAR AHEAD OF A FRONT THIS
TIME OF YEAR...SO THERE IS THE POTENTIAL FOR WARMER TEMPERATURES AND
MORE HEATING THAN CURRENTLY FORECAST. IF THIS WERE TO OCCUR...CAPE
VALUES WOULD LIKELY BE MUCH HIGHER THAN FORECAST AND THE SEVERE
THREAT WOULD INCREASE. AS IT STANDS...IT LOOKS LIKE A CASE WHERE
LIMITED INSTABILITY WILL KEEP THE SEVERE WEATHER AT BAY IN SPITE OF
THE STRONG DYNAMICS AND INCREASING WIND SHEAR IN PLACE. LATER IN THE
DAY AS THE TROUGH DRAWS CLOSER MODELS PROG 500 MB FLOW INCREASING IN
EXCESS OF 50 KNOTS...RESULTING IN 0-6 KM SHEAR ON THE ORDER OF 30-35
KNOTS. THE EASTERN FRINGE OF THE FORECAST AREA IS CURRENTLY IN A
MARGINAL SEVERE WEATHER RISK FROM SPC FOR SATURDAY SO IT WILL
CERTAINLY BEAR WATCHING. GIVEN THE NEAR STORM ENVIRONMENT
ANTICIPATED AT THIS POINT...THE CONVECTIVE MODE WOULD SEEM TO FAVOR
A MORE LINEAR SYSTEM OR AT LEAST LINEAR SEGMENTS. DAMAGING WIND
GUSTS ARE THE MAIN SEVERE WEATHER THREAT...PRIMARILY IN THE LATE
AFTERNOON AND EVENING HOURS. OVERNIGHT...ANY ONGOING CONVECTION WILL
SHIFT OFFSHORE AND A MUCH COOLER/DRIER AIRMASS WILL BEGIN TO FILTER
IN LATE. BASED ON THE CURRENT FRONT TIMING...LOWS COULD FALL INTO
THE LOW 60S INLAND BY DAYBREAK SUNDAY.

SUNDAY...THE FIRST SIGNIFICANT AIRMASS CHANGE OF THE SEASON WILL
MAKE FOR A VERY COMFORTABLE DAY. BASED ON MODEL AGREEMENT REGARDING
THE FRONT...POPS HAVE BEEN DECREASED AS DEEP DRY AIR INVADES LAND
AREAS. LOOK FOR HIGHS IN THE 80-82 DEGREE RANGE...WHICH WOULD BE 4-6
DEGREES BELOW CLIMO FOR EARLY/MID SEPTEMBER. ALSO...WITH DEW POINTS
IN THE MID/UPPER 50S IT WILL FEEL SIGNIFICANT DIFFERENT THAN IT HAS
IN A FEW MONTHS.

&&

.LONG TERM /SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY/...
MEDIUM RANGE GUIDANCE REMAINS IN GOOD AGREEMENT WITH THE OVERALL
SYNOPTIC PATTERN THROUGH THE LONG TERM PERIOD. AN UPPER LEVEL TROUGH
AXIS WILL SWING THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT...WITH THE PASSAGE OF A DRY
REINFORCING COLD FRONT AT THE SURFACE. A LARGE AREA OF HIGH PRESSURE
WILL THEN BEGIN TO BUILD INTO THE REGION FROM THE NORTHWEST BEFORE
SHIFTING TO A POSITION OVER THE MID-ATLANTIC REGION DURING THE FIRST
PART OF NEXT WEEK. THE HIGH WILL LINGER OVER THE MID-ATLANTIC
THROUGH MID-WEEK...BUT THERE IS SOME HINT THAT A COASTAL TROUGH
COULD DEVELOP OFFSHORE WHILE MOISTURE INCREASES FROM THE SOUTH.

AS FOR EXPECTED WEATHER CONDITIONS...RAIN-FREE CONDITIONS SHOULD
PREVAIL THROUGH EARLY NEXT WEEK WITH ONLY A SLIGHT CHANCE FOR
CONVECTION NEAR THE ALTAMAHA RIVER BY TUESDAY. ISOLATED TO PERHAPS
SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ARE THEN EXPECTED THROUGH MID-
WEEK...MAINLY NEAR THE COAST...AS MOISTURE INCREASES AND THE
POTENTIAL COASTAL TROUGH DEVELOPS. AS FOR TEMPERATURES...SOME OF THE
COOLEST CONDITIONS IN QUITE SOME TIME COULD OCCUR MONDAY MORNING IN
WAKE OF THE SECONDARY COLD FRONT GIVEN A VERY DRY AIRMASS...WITH
LOWS LIKELY IN THE MID TO UPPER 50S. TEMPERATURES SHOULD THEN BEGIN
TO MODERATE THROUGH MID-WEEK BENEATH A STRENGTHENING RIDGE ALOFT.

&&

.AVIATION /00Z FRIDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
KCHS...A LINE OF SHRA/TSRA WILL SWEEP THROUGH THE TERMINAL THIS
EVENING...RESULTING IN GUSTY WINDS AND AT LEAST A PERIOD OF MVFR
CONDITIONS THROUGH 02Z. VFR WEATHER LOOKS TO RETURN
THEREAFTER...ALTHOUGH THERE WILL BE A RISK OF FLIGHT RESTRICTIONS
AGAIN LATE IN THE VALID CYCLE AS SHRA/TSRA WILL AGAIN ARRIVE INTO
THE AREA IN RESPONSE TO THE SEA BREEZE AND NEARBY MESO-SCALE
BOUNDARIES.

KSAV...A FEW UPSTREAM SHRA COULD IMPACT THE AIRFIELD THIS
EVENING...ALTHOUGH ANY DIRECT IMPACTS ARE TOO MINIMAL TO SHOW
ANYTHING OTHER THAN VFR AND VCSH. NEXT CHANCE FOR FLIGHT
RESTRICTIONS WILL COME AFTER 18Z FRIDAY AS SHRA/TSRA FORM IN
RESPONSE TO THE SEA BREEZE AND VARIOUS MESO-SCALE BOUNDARIES
NEARBY.

EXTENDED AVIATION OUTLOOK...MODERATE TO HIGH CHANCES FOR PERIODIC FLIGHT
RESTRICTIONS WITH SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS SATURDAY AND SATURDAY NIGHT
AS A COLD FRONT PUSHES THROUGH THE AREA. PREVAILING VFR WILL RETURN
ON SUNDAY AND CONTINUE INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK.

&&

.MARINE...
TONIGHT...A MODEST SOUTHWEST PRESSURE GRADIENT WILL PERSIST THROUGH
THE OVERNIGHT PERIOD DUE TO HIGH PRESSURE OFFSHORE AND A TROUGH OF
LOW PRESSURE INLAND. WINDS SHOULD PEAK NEAR 15-20 KTS...HIGHEST IN
NORTHERN SC AND OFFSHORE GA WATERS. SEAS WILL RANGE BETWEEN 2-4 FT.

FRIDAY THROUGH TUESDAY...SOUTHWEST FLOW WILL PREVAIL ACROSS THE
LOCAL WATERS FRIDAY AND SATURDAY AHEAD OF AN APPROACHING COLD FRONT.
THE SOUTHWEST GRADIENT WILL TIGHTEN...ESPECIALLY ON SATURDAY AS THE
FRONT DRAWS CLOSER. WINDS WILL INCREASE AND WILL LIKELY TOP OUT IN
THE 15-20 KT RANGE EACH AFTERNOON...STRONGEST OVER THE CHARLESTON
COUNTY WATERS AND ALONG THE LAND/SEA INTERFACE THANKS TO THE
STRENGTHENING SEA BREEZE. CONDITIONS COULD BRIEFLY BECOME MARGINALLY
SUPPORTIVE OF A SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY...BUT CONFIDENCE ISN/T VERY
HIGH IN THAT SCENARIO AS OF YET. THE COLD FRONT IS EXPECTED TO PUSH
THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT AND WINDS WILL SHIFT TO BECOME MORE WESTERLY
AND EVEN NORTHWESTERLY THROUGH THE DAY AS THE GRADIENT RELAXES.
CONTINUE TO VEER FOLLOWING THE PASSAGE OF A SECONDARY COLD FRONT
SUNDAY NIGHT...EVENTUALLY BECOMING ONSHORE MONDAY AND TUESDAY. SEAS
WILL GENERALLY RANGE FROM 2 TO 4 FT THROUGH THE PERIOD...BUT COULD
REACH UPWARDS OF 5 FT EARLY NEXT WEEK AS THE ONSHORE FLOW DEVELOPS.
