AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GREENVILLE-SPARTANBURG SC
250 PM EDT TUE JUN 9 2015

.SYNOPSIS...
A COLD FRONT WILL MOVE JUST SOUTH OF OUR AREA TONIGHT AND THEN
DISSIPATE ON WEDNESDAY. AN UPPER LEVEL RIDGE WILL GRADUALLY BUILD
OVER OUR REGION FOR THE REST OF THE WEEK.  THE RIDGE WILL BE WELL
ESTABLISHED BY LATE WEEKEND AND WE EXPECT HOT TEMPERATURES GOING
INTO NEXT WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
AS OF 230 PM...THE REGION REMAINS UNDER CYCLONIC UPPER FLOW THIS
AFTN...BRISK ENOUGH THAT A LEE TROUGH HAS DEVELOPED OVER THE
PIEDMONT. HOWEVER THE BETTER DYNAMIC FORCING ASSOC WITH THE EMBEDDED
VORT MAX HAS NOW SET UP SOUTH AND EAST OF THE CWFA. A NEARLY
STATIONARY FRONTAL BOUNDARY REMAINS INVOF THE OHIO RIVER...THIS
BOUNDARY SEPARATING THE SUBTROPICAL AIRMASS OVER THE SOUTHEAST FROM
SOMEWHAT DRIER CONTINENTAL AIR OVER THE MIDWEST.

A DEWPOINT GRADIENT DOES EXIST ACRS THE UPSTATE...WHERE THE MORE
NORTHERLY FLOW BEHIND THE TROUGH HAS NOT YET REACHED. WITH MRNG
STRATUS AND CIRRUS BANDS HAVING DEPARTED...DIURNAL DESTABILIZATION
HAS GOTTEN UNDERWAY ACRS THE AREA...WITH CONGESTED CUMULUS SEEN OVER
THE BALSAMS AND SRN BLUE RIDGE ESCARPMENT...AND CLUSTERED TSTMS SEEN
OVER THE CSRA TO OUR SOUTH WITHIN THE MORE JUICY DEWPOINTS THERE.
OVERALL FORCING REMAINS RATHER WEAK AND IT APPEARS THE BEST
CONVECTIVE COVERAGE THIS AFTN WILL BE NEAR THE LEE TROUGH AXIS.
MAINTAINED SCT THUNDER IN THE LOWER PIEDMONT ZONES AND MAINLY ISOLD
MENTION ELSEWHERE. HIGH TEMPS LOOK TO BE ON TRACK. AS FAR AS THREATS
THIS AFTN...THE GREATEST THREAT FOR SEVERE APPEARS TO BE ALONG OUR
SRN FRINGE WHERE THE CAPE VALUES ARE MUCH HIGHER. HOWEVER PROFILES
ARE DRIER FURTHER NORTH IN THE CWFA...IMPLYING ENHANCED POTENTIAL
FOR DOWNBURSTS. SHEAR IS GENERALLY UNDER 20 KT ACRS THE AREA.

TONIGHT THE DIURNALLY DRIVEN CONVECTION SHOULD DIMINISH WITH THE
LOSS OF HEATING...BUT THE DEWPOINT GRADIENT AND/OR LEE TROUGH WILL
REMAIN LOCKED UP OVER SC. SOME GUIDANCE...MAINLY THE NAM...CONTINUES
TO FIRE ELEVATED CONVECTION OVER THIS BOUNDARY WELL INTO THE NIGHT.
HOWEVER AN INSPECTION OF ITS SOUNDINGS PUT THIS IN QUESTION. THERE
IS MUCH BETTER CONSENSUS FOR A NOCTURNAL LULL ANYWAY. THE BOUNDARY
HOWEVER MAY ENABLE LINGERING MOISTURE TO DEVELOP INTO A STRATUS
LAYER OVER PARTS OF THE UPSTATE AND CLT METRO AREA. MIN TEMPS ARE
EXPECTED TO BE SIMILAR TO THOSE THIS MRNG...A FEW DEGREES ABOVE
CLIMO.

ON WEDNESDAY...UPPER TROUGH CONTINUES TO LIFT AS THE SUBTROPICAL
RIDGE BEGINS TO DOMINATE THE PATTERN. LIGHT SOUTHERLY FLOW WILL
RESUME ACRS THE CWFA. POP DISTRIBUTION SHOULD RETURN TO A MORE
CLIMATOLOGICAL PATTERN HIGHLIGHTING THE SRN ESCARPMENT REGION.
INSTABILITY WILL BE MORE LIMITED...WITH BOTH THE GFS AND NAM
BECOMING UNSTABLE OVER MOST OF THE AREA. PROFILES WILL HAVE DRIED
OUT EVEN MORE...AND SHEAR WILL BE YET WEAKER DUE TO THE LOSS OF THE
UPPER GRADIENT. ISOLATED MICROBURSTS ARE LIKELY...IF NOT
SEVERE...WITH ANY CELLS THAT FIRE. MAX TEMPS WILL BE A CATEGORY OR
TWO ABOVE NORMAL.

&&

.SHORT TERM /WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY/...
AS OF 215 PM TUESDAY...ON THURSDAY...SHORT RANGE MODELS GENERALLY
AGREE THAT THE SOUTHEAST WILL REMAIN UNDER A BROAD H5 TROUGH. BOTH
THE NAM AND GFS INDICATE THAT LIGHT SOUTH WINDS WILL TRANSPORT
MOISTURE FROM THE GULF AND ATLANTIC AREAS...ESPECIALLY DURING THE
DAYLIGHT HOURS ON THURSDAY. THE GFS FORECAST SOUNDINGS INDICATE THAT
PW VALUES WILL INCREASE FROM 1.3 AT SUNRISE TO AROUND 1.6 BY THE
LATE AFTERNOON. AS A RESULT...I WILL FORECAST INCREASING CLOUD COVER
FROM THE SOUTH AFTER 12Z. FORECAST HIGHS WILL REMAIN SLIGHTLY COOLER
OVER THE UPPER SAVANNAH RIVER VALLEY DUE TO THE EARLY ONSET OF
BROKEN OVERCAST SKY COVER. I WILL FORECAST HIGHS FROM THE UPPER 80S
NEAR THE SC/GA LINE TO LOWER 90S ACROSS THE CHARLOTTE METRO
AREA...MOUNTAINS REMAINING IN THE LOW TO MID 80S. IT APPEARS THAT
SBCAPE VALUES WILL PEAK BETWEEN 1000-1500 DURING THE HEAT OF THE
AFTERNOON. HOWEVER...AREAS ACROSS THE I-77 CORRIDOR MAY SEE LOW
LEVEL CIN REMAIN THROUGH THE AFTERNOON. THEREFORE I WILL FAVOR THE
MOUNTAIN AREAS FOR POPS...INDICATING LOW LIKELY VALUES ACROSS THE
RIDGES. BY THE LATE AFTERNOON SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
SHOULD DRIFT OVER THE FOOTHILLS...SUPPORTING POPS AROUND 30 PERCENT.

ON FRIDAY...THE NAM INDICATES A VERY WEAK MID LEVEL LOW / TROUGH
WILL DRIFT ACROSS THE UPSTATE OF SC DURING THE EARLY MORNING HOURS.
AS A RESULT...MODEL INDICATES A BAND OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
LIFTING NORTH ACROSS THE UPSTATE DURING THE PRE-DAWN HOURS...THE GFS
AND ECMWF REMAIN GENERALLY DRY DURING THIS TIME. I WILL BLEND THE
WETTER NAM WITH THE GFS AND ECMWF...INDICATING SLIGHT CHANCE POPS.
BY THE AFTERNOON HOURS MID LEVEL HEIGHTS ARE FORECAST TO RISE AS THE
CENTER OF A SUB-TROPICAL LOW APPROACHES THE ATLANTIC COAST OF
FLORIDA. FORECAST SOUNDINGS INDICATE LESS INSTABILITY ACROSS THE
FOOTHILLS AND PIEDMONT COMPARED TO THURSDAY. THE ENVIROMENT ACROSS
THE MOUNTAINS APPEARS GENERALLY UNCHANGED FROM THURSDAY AFTERNOON.
THEREFORE I WILL LIMIT POPS ALONG AND EAST OF I-85 TO A SLIGHT
CHANCE. MOUNTAIN ZONES SHOULD SEE SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS DURING THE
AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING HOURS. OVERALL TEMPERATURES WILL RANGE 2-
4 DEGREES ABOVE NORMAL.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY/...
AS OF 200 PM EDT TUESDAY...THE MEDIUM RANGE FCST PERIOD STARTS AT
00Z SATURDAY. AT THE SURFACE...BERMUDA HIGH PRESSURE WITH A
SUBTROPICAL RIDGE AT 500MB. THE MEDIUM RANGE MODELS ARE IN GOOD
AGREEMENT THAT THIS RIDGE WILL BECOME WELL ESTABLISHED BY LATE IN
THE WEEKEND AND CONTINUE INTO THE FIRST HALF OF NEXT WEEK.  500MB
HEIGHTS WILL HAVE AN ANTICYCLONE CLOSED CENTER OF AT LEAST 592. THIS
PATTERN WILL FAVOR RIDGE TOP CONVECTION WITH VERY LITTLE MOVEMENT.
AS SHOWERS AND STORMS DEVELOP...THEY WILL TEND TO RAIN THEMSELVES
OUT NEAR WHERE THEY FORMED. NOT MUCH CONVECTION OVER THE PIEDMONT.
HOWEVER...THE ECMWF IS TRENDING A BIT TOWARD RETROGRADING THE RIDGE
TO THE WEST WHICH MAY BRING CONVECTION AROUND THE TOP OF THE RIDGE
TO SPILL SE INTO THE CAROLINAS. ALSO...IF SOME VERSION OF A LEE
TROUGH WERE TO DEVELOP TOWARD MID WEEK...THIS WOULD HELP IN PIEDMONT
CONVECTION.  TEMPERATURES WILL BE WELL ABOVE NORMAL AND PERHAPS TEN
DEGREES ABOVE NORMAL WITH PIEDMONT HIGHS IN THE MID 90S NEXT WEEK.
IT IS POSSIBLE SOME PIEDMONT LOCATIONS COULD REACH UPPER 90S ON
TUESDAY.

&&

.AVIATION /19Z TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
AT KCLT...STRATOCU WILL FORM NEAR MVFR THRESHOLD BUT LIKELY LIFT TO
ABOUT 040 BEFORE FORMING A CIG. CONVECTION MAY DEEPEN INTO TSRA
ESPECIALLY ON ACCOUNT OF LEE TROUGH OVER THE PIEDMONT. BRIEF TEMPO
TO COVER THE CHANCE...BUT ACTIVITY IS PROGGED TO PROPAGATE SEWD AND
OUT OF THE AREA BY LATE AFTN. TONIGHT PLENTIFUL LOW LEVEL MOISTURE
WILL STILL BE PRESENT. THE UPPER HEIGHT GRADIENT WEAKENS BUT THE
AREA REMAINS UNDER CYCLONIC FLOW...AND A LINGERING BOUNDARY OR
TROUGH IS EXPECTED INVOF INTERSTATE 85. SOME GUIDANCE SHOWS LOW VFR
OR MVFR STRATUS DEVELOPING ALONG THAT BOUNDARY. HINTED AT THIS WITH
SCT LAYERS NEAR DAWN. WINDS WILL INITIALLY FAVOR WSW THIS AFTN...BUT
THE LEE TROF COULD BRING THEM CLOSER TO SW AT TIMES. NEARLY CALM
WINDS OVERNIGHT...COMING UP FROM THE SW AGAIN WED.

ELSEWHERE...WHILE DEEP CONVECTION THIS AFTN SHOULD BE MOST
WIDESPREAD OVER UPSTATE SC...A SMALL CHANCE EXISTS ACRS ALL SITES
AND ESP NEAR THE SRN FACING BLUE RIDGE. VCTS USED AS NEEDED TO COVER
LOW POPS. OTHERWISE MAINLY LOW VFR CU OR STRATOCU WILL BE SEEN WITH
LIGHT WLY TO SWLY BREEZES /NWLY AT KAVL/. TONIGHT LIGHT FOG IS
EXPECTED AROUND THE AREA WITH RESTRICTIVE CIGS NOT TOTALLY OUT OF
THE QUESTION OVER THE UPSTATE...WHERE A WEAK BOUNDARY OR TROUGH WILL
PERSIST. LOW VFR CU SHOULD POP OUT WED MRNG BUT PRECIP CHANCES ARE
TOO LOW TO MENTION UNTIL AFTER 18Z. WINDS WILL BE SOMEWHAT VRB EARLY
IN THE DAY...BUT WILL GENERALLY PREVAIL SOUTHERLY BY LATE MRNG.

OUTLOOK...HIGH PRESSURE RIDGING WILL REDEVELOP OVER THE SOUTHEAST
THROUGH LATE WEEK IN A TYPICAL SUMMERTIME PATTERN. ISOLD AFTN TSRA
ARE STILL POSSIBLE...ESPECIALLY OVER THE MTNS. EACH MRNG SOME
RESTRICTIONS MAY OCCUR PARTICULARLY WHERE HEAVY RAIN FELL IN TSRA
THE PREVIOUS DAY.
