AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHARLESTON SC
414 PM EDT THU JUN 25 2015

.SYNOPSIS...
ATLANTIC HIGH PRESSURE WILL PREVAIL TONIGHT WHILE A TROUGH OF LOW
PRESSURE PERSISTS INLAND. A COLD FRONT WILL STALL TO THE NORTH
FRIDAY INTO SATURDAY BEFORE FINALLY CROSSING THE AREA SUNDAY. THE
FRONT COULD STALL JUST OFFSHORE BEFORE DISSIPATING EARLY NEXT
WEEK. ANOTHER FRONT COULD IMPACT THE AREA MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM FRIDAY MORNING/...
DUE TO CONVECTION WHICH HAS DROPPED TEMPS INTO THE UPPER 70S TO
MID 80S WE HAVE CANCELLED THE HEAT ADVISORY MAINLY SOUTH OF
I-16...INCLUDING THE SAVANNAH METRO. THE HEAT ADVISORY CONTINUES
NORTH OF THERE...INCLUDING THE BEAUFORT THROUGH 7 PM...EXCEPT FOR
THE CHARLESTON QUAD-COUNTY REGION. PARTS OR ALL OF THIS ADVISORY
MAY ALSO BE CANCELLED EARLIER DUE TO CONVECTION.

THERE REMAINS A QUITE A FEW OF BOUNDARIES ACROSS THE FORECAST
REGION FOR CONVECTION TO CONTINUE TO FORM...AIDED BY UPPER LEVEL
DIFLUENCE WITH A NEARLY ZONAL FLOW JUST TO OUR NORTH AND RIDGING
TO THE SOUTH AND WEST. LIFTED INDICES ARE -8 TO -9C...SBCAPES OF
3500-4500 J/KG SUGGESTS THERE IS AMPLE INSTABILITY FOR CONVECTION
TO MAINTAIN ITSELF...WITH THE GREATEST COVERAGE THROUGH THIS
EVENING TO EXIST NEAR AND SOUTH OF I-16 IN SE GA. WE HAVE HIGH END
TO LIKELY POPS IN THESE SECTIONS...BUT SLIGHT CHANCE TO LOW END
CHANCE POPS NORTH OF THERE. HOWEVER...NOW THAT TEMPS HAVE JUMPED
ABOVE 90F SINCE MORE SUNSHINE HAS BROKEN THROUGH WE/LL NEED TO
MAINTAIN A CLOSE WATCH ON TRENDS SHOULD GREATER COVERAGE START
INITIATING ON A DIFFERENTIAL HEATING BOUNDARY SOUTH AND WEST OF
THE CHARLESTON METRO.

LAPSE RATES ARE NOT THAT IMPRESSIVE...BUT DCAPES AS GREAT AS 800-1200
J/KG...WINDEX OF 50-60 KT AND PRECIP LOADING FROM A MOIST PROFILE
/PWATS 1-2 STANDARD DEVIATIONS ABOVE NORMAL/ SUPPORTS STRONG
DOWNBURSTS OF WIND...WITH PERHAPS A COUPLE OF ISOLATED STRONG TO
SEVERE STORMS. STORM MOTION IS YET AGAIN ALMOST NON-EXISTENT...SO
HEAVY DOWNPOURS ARE ALSO A CONCERN. IF ANY SEVERE WEATHER IS ABLE
TO OCCUR IT IS MOST LIKELY FROM ABOUT 5-9 PM AND MAINLY INLAND.

EARLIER HIGH-RES MODELS WERE SHOWING INDICATIONS THAT ANOTHER MCS
MIGHT FORM AND HEAD SOUTHWARD INTO OUR FORECAST AREA
OVERNIGHT...SOMEWHAT SIMILAR TO WHAT HAPPENED LAST NIGHT.
HOWEVER...ALL THE AVAILABLE GUIDANCE HAS STRAYED FROM THAT
SOLUTION AND IS NOW INDICATIVE THAT CONVECTION WILL BE MAINLY
DIURNALLY DRIVEN AND WILL END BY 11 PM TO MIDNIGHT. PLUS HAVING
THIS HAPPEN 2 CONSECUTIVE NIGHTS IS A FAIRLY LOW PROBABILITY. EVEN
SO...CONVECTION IS FORECAST TO DEVELOP AND INCREASE IN
STRENGTH/COVERAGE ACROSS THE MID-ATLANTIC REGION THROUGH THIS
EVENING IN PROXIMITY TO A STATIONARY FRONT AND STRONG MID LEVEL
FLOW. ODDS FAVOR THAT ACTIVITY STAYING TO OUR NORTH TONIGHT...BUT
IT BEARS CLOSE WATCHING SHOULD IT ORGANIZE/COLD POOL AND HEAD MORE
SOUTHWARD.

BASED ON THIS FORECAST WE LOOK FOR OVERNIGHT LOWS GENERALLY 73-77
INLAND AND 78-81 ON THE BARRIER ISLANDS AND IN DOWNTOWN
CHARLESTON.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM FRIDAY MORNING THROUGH SUNDAY/...
FRIDAY...WE SHOULD EXPERIENCE OUR LAST DAY OF WELL ABOVE NORMAL
TEMPS EARLY THIS WEEKEND AS MID LVL RIDGING BEGINS TO WEAKEN OVER
THE AREA IN RESPONSE TO A LARGE SCALE TROUGH DIGGING OVER THE UPPER
MIDWEST AND GREAT LAKES REGION. FURTHER COOLING IS POSSIBLE AS LOW
PRESSURE DEVELOPS ALONG/NEAR A STALLED FRONT TO OUR NORTH PROVIDES
SOME ENHANCED LIFTING FOR AFTERNOON SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS.
HOWEVER...THE MAIN ISSUE FOR THE DAY WILL BE HEAT INDEX VALUES THAT
APPROACH 105 DEGREES INLAND WHERE SFC DEWPTS REMAIN IN THE LOWER 70S
AND TEMPS PEAK IN THE MID/UPPER 90S. WE COULD SEE A FEW HOURS OF
HEAT ADVISORY CRITERIA...THUS A HEAT ADVISORY COULD BE NEEDED
BETWEEN NOON AND 7 PM. A FEW SHOWERS COULD LINGER INTO THE OVERNIGHT
PERIOD...BUT SHOULD GENERALLY DECREASE IN COVERAGE. LOW TEMPS WILL
REMAIN MILD...IN THE MID/UPPER 70S.

SATURDAY...A MORE ACTIVE WEATHER PATTERN IS POSSIBLE LATER THIS
WEEKEND WITH STRONGER TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS OVER THE SOUTHEASTERN
UNITED STATES. UNSTABLE CONDITIONS WILL LIKELY DEVELOP OVER THE
SOUTHEASTERN UNITED STATES AHEAD OF LARGE MID/UPPER LVL TROUGH OF
LOW PRESSURE THAT DIGS OVER THE GREAT LAKES REGION. PWATS ARE
PROJECTED TO BE ABOVE 2.0 INCHES WHILE GREATER FORCING AND SHEAR
ARRIVE TO THE AREA AS SEVERAL H5 SHORTWAVES AND STRONGER WIND FIELDS
ROUND THE SOUTHERN PERIPHERY OF THE MID/UPPER LOW TO OUR NORTH.
ALTHOUGH CLOUD COVER COULD BE AN ISSUE AND MID LVL LAPSE RATES DO
NOT APPEAR TO BE ALL THAT IMPRESSIVE...SFC TEMPS PEAKING IN THE
LOWER 90S...SBCAPES BETWEEN 1500 TO 2000 J/KG AND LIFTED INDEX
VALUES NEAR -6 TO -7C WILL LIKELY SUPPORT A FAVORABLE THERMODYNAMIC
ENVIRONMENT AS FORCING AND UPLIFT OCCUR FROM A 25-30 KT LOW/MID LVL
JET AND RIGHT-REAR QUADRANT OF A H25 JET PASSING OVER THE
SOUTHEASTERN UNITED STATES. A SFC TROUGH OF LOW PRESSURE POSITIONED
INLAND WILL FURTHER ENHANCE CONVECTION AHEAD OF A SFC COLD FRONT
MAKING WAY TOWARDS THE EAST/SOUTHEASTERN SEABOARD LATE. GIVEN THE
SETUP IN PLACE...SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ARE LIKELY. A CHANCE OF
STRONGER TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WILL ALSO BE POSSIBLE AHEAD OF THE
SFC COLD FRONT DURING THE AFTERNOON INTO EARLY OVERNIGHT HOURS.
DAMAGING WIND GUSTS APPEAR TO BE THE MAIN THREAT WITH STRONGER
THUNDERSTORMS...BUT HEAVY RAINFALL WILL ALSO BE A CONCERN GIVEN DEEP
MOISTURE.

SUNDAY...CONDITIONS SHOULD IMPROVE EARLY NEXT WEEK AS A
STALLING/WEAKENING COLD FRONT PUSHES JUST OFFSHORE. HOWEVER...THE
FRONT WILL LIKELY LINGER IN THE VICINITY...KEEPING SHOWER AND
THUNDERSTORM CHANCES IN THE FORECAST...ESPECIALLY ALONG COASTAL
LOCATIONS. HIGH TEMPERATURES WILL BE NOTICEABLY COOLER THAN PREVIOUS
DAYS...IN THE MID/UPPER 80S FOR MOST AREAS.

&&

.LONG TERM /SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY/...
BROAD UPPER TROUGH WILL ENCOMPASS THE EASTERN U.S. THROUGH THE LONG
TERM PERIOD. A STALLED FRONT LOCATED NEAR THE COAST WILL LIKELY
DISSIPATE ON MONDAY...GIVING WAY TO HIGH PRESSURE CENTERED OVER THE
ATLANTIC. A TROUGH OF LOW PRESSURE MAY DEVELOP INLAND ON TUESDAY
BEFORE A POTENT VORT MAX SENDS ANOTHER AREA OF LOW PRESSURE AND
ATTENDANT COLD FRONT TOWARDS THE FORECAST AREA MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK.
OVERALL...TEMPERATURES WILL REMAIN NEAR NORMAL THROUGH THE PERIOD
WITH TYPICAL DIURNAL SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS POSSIBLE IN THE
AFTERNOON.

&&

.AVIATION /20Z THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
THERE ARE AMPLE BOUNDARIES FOR SHRA/TSRA TO DEVELOP THIS AFTERNOON
INTO THIS EVENING...AND WE HAVE VCTS AND CB CLOUDS TO KCHS AS A
RESULT. DIRECT IMPACTS AND TEMPORARY FLIGHT RESTRICTIONS ARE
CERTAINLY POSSIBLE...SO WE/LL AMEND AS NECESSARY. AT KSAV THE RISK
FOR DIRECT AFFECTS FROM CONVECTION IS GREATER AND WE HAVE A TEMPO
GROUP UNTIL 23Z FOR TSRA AND MVFR WEATHER TO OCCUR DUE TO
INTERACTIONS ALONG THE SEA BREEZE AND OTHER BOUNDARIES FROM NEARBY
CONVECTION.

THE BULK OF THE ACTIVITY SHOULD WANE AFTER DARK...WITH VFR TO
PREVAIL THROUGH THE REST OF TONIGHT THROUGH 18Z FRIDAY.

EXTENDED AVIATION OUTLOOK...FLIGHT RESTRICTIONS ARE LIKELY DURING
AFTERNOON SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS...ESPECIALLY SATURDAY AFTERNOON AND
NIGHT.

&&

.MARINE...
TONIGHT...OUR LATEST FORECAST IS BASED ON CONVECTION NOT
DISRUPTING THE SYNOPTIC SOUTH/SW FLOW TOO MUCH...FAVORING A
DECENT GRADIENT BETWEEN ATLANTIC RIDGING AND A TROUGH INLAND. WITH
THIS IN MIND WE LOOK FOR A DECENT NOCTURNAL SURGE AS HIGH AS 15 OR
EVEN 20 KT...WITH OCCASIONAL GUSTS TO NEAR 25 KT OVER AMZ330-352.
BUT NOT ENOUGH FREQUENCY TO HOIST THE SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY FLAGS.
SEAS WILL AVERAGE 2-4 FT...GREATEST NORTH AND EAST PORTIONS OF THE
ATLANTIC. STORM MOTION IS LIGHT BUT MAINLY W/NW TOWARD THE
EAST/SE...SUGGESTING THAT STORMS FROM OVER LAND WILL COULD IMPACT
THE NEARBY COASTAL WATERS THIS EVENING. LATER TONIGHT THE BULK OF
THE ACTIVITY LOOKS TO BE OUT NEAR THE GULF STREAM WATERS.

FRIDAY THROUGH TUESDAY...ATLANTIC HIGH PRESSURE WILL DOMINATE THE
COASTAL WATERS WHILE A TROUGH OF LOW PRESSURE PERSISTS INLAND
THROUGH LATE WEEK. A COLD FRONT IS EXPECTED TO SHIFT OVER THE WATERS
LATE SATURDAY INTO SUNDAY...BEFORE EVENTUALLY STALLING/DISSIPATING
EARLY NEXT WEEK. A TIGHTENED PRESSURE GRADIENT WILL KEEP WINDS
FAIRLY ELEVATED THROUGH THE PERIOD. NOCTURNAL JETTING AND AFTERNOON
SEA BREEZE CIRCULATIONS WILL RESULT IN SOUTH/SOUTHWEST WINDS PEAKING
AROUND 15-20 KTS AT TIMES...ESPECIALLY ACROSS THE CHARLESTON COUNTY
COASTAL WATERS. WIND GUSTS SHOULD REACH SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY LEVELS
SATURDAY AFTERNOON OR NIGHT IN NEARSHORE WATERS ALONG THE CHARLESTON
COUNTY AND IN OFFSHORE GEORGIA WATERS. ATLANTIC HIGH PRESSURE IS
THEN EXPECTED TO RETURN NEXT WEEK. SEAS THROUGH THE PERIOD WILL
MAINLY BE 2-4 FEET...BUT COULD REACH 5-6 FEET IN THE OUTER PORTIONS
OF THE WATERS DURING SURGES LATE THIS WEEKEND.
