AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHARLESTON SC
424 PM EDT TUE MAY 12 2015

.SYNOPSIS...
ATLANTIC HIGH PRESSURE WILL GIVE WAY TO A COLD FRONT WHICH WILL
MOVE THROUGH THE AREA FROM THE NORTHWEST LATE TONIGHT INTO EARLY
WEDNESDAY. THE FRONT WILL LIKELY STALL OR DISSIPATE JUST SOUTH OF
THE AREA THROUGH THURSDAY WHILE HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS FROM THE NORTH
AND THEN BECOMES CENTERED OVER THE WESTERN ATLANTIC THIS WEEKEND
AND EARLY NEXT WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM WEDNESDAY MORNING/...
LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND THIS EVENING...STRONG SURFACE BASED
HEATING WITH COMPRESSIONAL HEATING AHEAD OF AN APPROACHING COLD
FRONT HAS ALLOWED TEMPERATURES TO CLIMB WELL INTO THE LOWER 90S
ACROSS THE AREA. DEEP MIXING HAS CAUSED DEW POINTS TO PLUMMET INTO
THE LOWER 60S INLAND OF THE SEA BREEZE. THESE LOWER DEW POINTS
ALONG WITH A WEAKENING CAP HAS GENERALLY LIMITED THE COVERAGE OF
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS TO THIS POINT. HOWEVER...WHILE
ISOLATED/SCATTERED SHOWERS COULD MAINTAIN IN THE VICINITY OF THE
SEA BREEZE AND SOUTH OF I-16 INITIALLY...AN APPROACHING SHORT
WAVE HAS CAUSED CONVECTION TO BECOME A BIT MORE ORGANIZED ACROSS
THE CSRA AND EASTERN MIDLANDS LATE THIS AFTERNOON. ITS THIS AREA
OF CONVECTION THAT WE ARE CLOSELY WATCHING...AS IT MOVES INTO THE
UNSTABLE AIRMASS OVER THE AREA AND EVENTUALLY COLLIDES WITH THE
INLAND PROGRESSING SEA BREEZE. THE SPC MESOSCALE ANALYSIS DEPICTS
SBCAPE VALUES AS HIGHS AS 2000-3000 J/KG AND LI/S DOWN TO -5C LATE
THIS AFTERNOON...SUGGESTING THE POTENTIAL FOR A FEW THUNDERSTORMS
TO BECOME SEVERE. THE PRIMARY THREAT WILL BE DAMAGING WINDS WITH
DOWNDRAFT CAPES OF 1200-1300 J/KG...DUE TO DRY AIR ALOFT AND LARGE
TEMPERATURE-DEW POINT SPREADS. THE SEVERE WEATHER THREAT WILL BE
GREATEST FROM ABOUT 5-10 PM. GIVEN THESE CONDITIONS...A MENTION
OF ISOLATED SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS HAS ALSO BEEN ADDED TO THE
HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK.

TONIGHT...LINGERING SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS COULD CONTINUE WELL
INTO THE OVERNIGHT HOURS...MAINLY NEAR THE COAST...AHEAD OF A
COLD FRONT WHICH WILL DROP THROUGH FROM THE NORTHWEST. SOUTHWEST
FLOW AHEAD OF THE FRONT AND A GOOD AMOUNT OF CLOUD COVER WILL
PREVENT TEMPERATURES FROM FALLING SIGNIFICANTLY TONIGHT...WITH
LOWS IN THE MID TO UPPER 60S.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM WEDNESDAY MORNING THROUGH FRIDAY/...
UPPER LEVEL RIDGING WILL GRADUALLY BUILD OVER THE SOUTHEASTERN
UNITED STATES THROUGH THE SECOND HALF OF THE WORKWEEK. WEDNESDAY
WILL SEE RAIN CHANCES CONSTRAINED ALONG THE ALTAMAHA BY DAYBREAK AS
THE COLD FRONT STALLS AND WEAKENS JUST SOUTH OF THE AREA. GFS HAS
BACKED OFF PROGGED MOISTURE ALONG THE I-16 CORRIDOR...INCREASING
CONFIDENCE THAT SAVANNAH WILL STAY DRY DURING THE DAY. POST-FRONTAL
COLD AIR ADVECTION WILL FILL IN MORE EFFICIENTLY ACROSS SOUTHEASTERN
SC...BRINGING MOSTLY SUNNY SKIES AND HIGHS IN THE LOWER 80S...WHILE
SOUTHEAST GA WILL REMAIN MOSTLY CLOUDY WITH HIGHS IN THE UPPER 80S.

HIGH PRESSURE MOVES OVER THE MID-ATLANTIC COAST DURING THE DAY
THURSDAY BRINGING ONSHORE FLOW TO THE SOUTHEAST COAST. GIVEN WATER
TEMPS OVER THE NEARSHORE CONTINENTAL SHELF STILL IN THE MID
70S...MOST COASTAL AREAS WILL STRUGGLE TO REACH 80. INLAND...HIGHS
COULD REACH THE MID 80S AND SOME AFTERNOON FAIR WEATHER CUMULUS ARE
EXPECTED. RIDGING FOCUSED NEAR 750MB WILL BRING VERY DRY MID LEVELS
AND KEEP MENTIONABLE POPS OUT OF THE FORECAST EVERYWHERE THURSDAY
EXCEPT RIGHT ALONG THE ALTAMAHA...WHERE SLIGHT CHANCE THUNDER WAS
LEFT IN DUE TO PROXIMITY TO REMNANT FRONTAL BOUNDARY.

SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE WILL SHIFT OFF THE MID-ATLANTIC COAST FRIDAY.
MID LEVEL RIDGING OVERHEAD WILL WEAKEN SOMEWHAT...THOUGH SOME
CAPPING OF THE ATMOSPHERE WILL REMAIN. LOW-END CHANCE POPS WERE
LEFT IN THE FORECAST FOR INLAND AREAS...WHERE THERE MAY BE JUST
ENOUGH DAYTIME HEATING TO INITIATE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS AS THE
AFTERNOON SEABREEZE COMES THROUGH. MODELS ARE ALSO HINTING AT A
COUPLE OF UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCES IN THE AREA DURING THIS
TIME...WHICH COULD FURTHER INCREASE CHANCES OF BREAKING THE
CAP...BUT CONFIDENCE IN TIMING OF THESE FEATURES IS LOW. COASTAL
AREAS SHOULD REMAIN DRY AS THE SEA BREEZE PASSAGE WILL STABILIZE THE
LOWER LEVELS EARLY IN THE DAY. LIGHT ONSHORE FLOW WILL KEEP TEMPS
NEAR NORMAL ON FRIDAY.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY/...
THE AREA WILL REMAIN ALONG THE WESTERN EDGE OF ATLANTIC HIGH
PRESSURE AND UNDER A STRONG MID LVL RIDGE EXTENDING NORTHWARD FROM
THE GULF OF MEXICO. SOUTH/SOUTHEAST SFC FLOW WILL PERSIST THROUGH
THE WEEKEND AND INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK...PROVIDING AMPLE MOISTURE TO
THE AREA WHILE NUMEROUS H5 SHORTWAVES ROUND THE NORTHERN EDGE OF THE
MID LVL RIDGE TO OUR SOUTH. AS A RESULT...CHANCES OF SHOWERS AND/OR
THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE POSSIBLE EACH AFTERNOON/EVENING INTO EARLY
NEXT WEEK. IN GENERAL...HIGH TEMPS SHOULD RANGE IN THE LOW TO MID
80S LATE WEEKEND...THEN MID TO UPPER 80S EARLY NEXT WEEK...WARMEST
AWAY FROM THE COAST. OVERNIGHT LOWS SHOULD RANGE IN THE MID TO UPPER
60S.

&&

.AVIATION /20Z TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
VFR CONDITIONS ARE GENERALLY EXPECTED TO PREVAIL AT THE TERMINALS
THROUGH 18Z WEDNESDAY. RADAR INDICATES ISOLATED SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS COULD AFFECT THE TERMINALS AT JUST ABOUT ANY TIME
THIS AFTERNOON...BUT THERE IS A GREATER POTENTIAL IN THE 23-03Z
TIME FRAME AS MORE ORGANIZED CONVECTION MOVES THROUGH FROM THE
WEST.THESE THUNDERSTORMS COULD RESULT IN GUSTY/ERRATIC WINDS
ALONG WITH SOME FLIGHT RESTRICTIONS. THERE IS A SMALL POTENTIAL
FOR FOG DEVELOPMENT LATE TONIGHT...BUT CONFIDENCE IS TOO LOW TO
ADD MENTION IN THE FORECAST AT THIS TIME.

EXTENDED AVIATION OUTLOOK...VFR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED TO
PREVAIL OUTSIDE SCATTERED DIURNAL CONVECTION THROUGH LATE WEEK.

&&

.MARINE...
TONIGHT...A SOUTHWEST FLOW AROUND 15 KT OR LESS WILL PREVAIL INTO
THE EARLY OVERNIGHT HOURS AHEAD OF A COLD FRONT APPROACHING FROM
THE NORTHWEST. THE FRONT WILL THEN BEGIN TO DROP THROUGH LATE
TONIGHT...CAUSING WINDS TO GRADUALLY VEER WEST OR EVEN NORTHWEST
TOWARD DAYBREAK. SEAS WILL GENERALLY RANGE 2-4 FT.

WEDNESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY...A WEAK COLD FRONT WILL SHIFT SOUTH OF
THE COASTAL WATERS WEDNESDAY...BEFORE STALLING AND/OR WEAKENING BY
THURSDAY. HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD FROM THE NORTH BEHIND THE FRONT
BEFORE BECOMING CENTERED OVER THE WESTERN ATLANTIC BY THIS WEEKEND.
EASTERLY FLOW COULD PEAK NEAR 15-20 KTS IN OUTER GEORGIA WATERS ON
THURSDAY AS THE PRESSURE GRADIENT BECOMES SLIGHTLY ENHANCED...BUT
WILL THEN BECOME MUCH WEAKER THIS WEEKEND AS HIGH PRESSURE BECOMES
CENTERED NORTHEAST OF THE WATERS. SEAS WILL RANGE BETWEEN 2-4 FT
THROUGH MIDWEEK...BUT WILL GRADUALLY BUILD UP TO 3-5 FT INTO LATE
WEEK AS NORTHEAST/EAST FLOW OCCURS OVER COASTAL WATERS.
