AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHARLESTON SC
922 PM EDT TUE MAY 3 2016

.SYNOPSIS...
A COLD FRONT WILL APPROACH THE REGION TONIGHT AND PASS OFFSHORE
WEDNESDAY MORNING. A REINFORCING COLD FRONT WILL MOVE THROUGH THE
AREA EARLY THURSDAY. HIGH PRESSURE WILL THEN EXPAND INTO THE REGION
FROM THE WEST LATE WEEK AND PREVAIL THROUGH THE WEEKEND. A BACKDOOR
COLD FRONT MAY IMPACT THE AREA EARLY NEXT WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM WEDNESDAY MORNING/...
THE SEVERE WEATHER THREAT CONTINUES THROUGH 10 PM. A STRONG LINE
OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS IS MOVING THROUGH THE CENTRAL PORTION OF
OUR AREA AT APPROXIMATELY 920 PM...MOVING TO THE NORTHEAST AT A
PRETTY GOOD PACE. THE MAIN WEATHER HAZARDS FROM THIS LINE ARE
DAMAGING WINDS AND MARGINALLY SEVERE HAIL. THE CURRENT RAP IS
STILL INDICATING SBCAPES AROUND 1500 J/KG AHEAD OF THE LINE WITH
DCAPES AROUND 800 J/KG. THIS COULD HELP MAINTAIN THE LINE FOR
POTENTIALLY ANOTHER 1-3 HOURS. THOUGH...THIS DOES NOT MEAN IT WILL
DEFINITELY STAY SEVERE THE ENTIRE TIME. THE SEVERE THREAT WILL
DECREASE AS THE EVENING/NIGHT PROGRESSES DUE TO A STABILIZING
ATMOSPHERE AND THE COLD FRONT WITH DRIER AIR APPROACHING OUR AREA.
THOUGH...STRONG STORMS MAY MAINTAIN UNTIL ABOUT MIDNIGHT,

POPS WILL PERSIST IN THE OVERNIGHT HOURS...MAINLY FROM REMNANT
SHOWERS. THESE WILL DECREASE AROUND DAYBREAK AS THE FRONT
APPROACHES. FOR ABOUT THE PAST WEEK OUR NIGHT TIME LOWS HAVE BEEN
FAR ABOVE NORMAL AND THAT SHOULD BE THE CASE AGAIN TONIGHT WITH
THE COOL ADVECTION NOT MAKING IT IN UNTIL LATE. LOWER 60S NW TIER
WILL BE COMMON...MID AND UPPER 60S MOST ELSEWHERE.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM WEDNESDAY MORNING THROUGH FRIDAY/...
WEDNESDAY...AN UPPER LOW INITIALLY CENTERED OVER THE NORTHERN GREAT
LAKES WILL SHIFT INTO THE OHIO RIVER VALLEY THROUGH THE DAY. AT THE
SURFACE...A COLD FRONT WILL HAVE SHIFTED OFFSHORE IN THE
MORNING...RESULTING IN PRECIP CHANCES QUICKLY DECREASING AND
BECOMING LIMITED TO THE COASTAL WATERS. DEEP WESTERLY FLOW WILL DRY
OUT THE COLUMN WITH SKIES BECOMING MOSTLY SUNNY BY THE AFTERNOON.
HIGH TEMPERATURES SHOULD STILL BE ABLE TO REACH NEAR NORMAL IN THE
UPPER 70S TO AROUND 80. WEDNESDAY NIGHT...TEMPERATURES ARE EXPECTED
TO BE MUCH COOLER THAN RECENT DAYS...ALTHOUGH STILL AROUND EARLY MAY
NORMALS. LOWS FORECAST TO RANGE FROM LOW 50S INLAND TO UPPER 50S AT
THE BEACHES.

THURSDAY...A DEEP UPPER TROUGH WILL BE ENCOMPASSING THE EASTERN HALF
OF THE COUNTRY. MAIN VORT LOBE ASSOCIATED WITH THE LOW CENTER WILL
SHIFT EAST ACROSS THE MID-ATLANTIC STATES THROUGH THE DAY...HELPING
TO GENERATE A SURFACE LOW OVER THE NC OUTER BANKS. GIVEN THE FORCING
IN PLACE...HAVE MAINTAINED SLIGHT CHANCE POPS ACROSS THE NORTHERN
ZONES IN CLOSER PROXIMITY TO THE AFOREMENTIONED FEATURES. MOISTURE
WILL BE QUITE LIMITED SO NO SUBSTANTIAL ACCUMULATIONS EXPECTED.
PRESSURE GRADIENT WILL TIGHTEN AS THE SURFACE LOW FORMS SO NORTHWEST
WINDS COULD GET A BIT GUSTY IN THE AFTERNOON...ROUGHLY 25 TO 30 MPH.
DESPITE MOSTLY SUNNY SKIES...LINGERING COOL ADVECTION WILL LIMIT
HIGHS TO THE LOW 70S. THURSDAY NIGHT...LOWS FORECAST TO BE SEVERAL
DEGREES BELOW NORMAL...AROUND 50 AWAY FROM THE IMMEDIATE COAST.

FRIDAY...THE UPPER LOW AND SURFACE REFLECTION WILL BE POSITIONED
SOMEWHERE OFF THE VIRGINIA COAST AT DAYBREAK. THESE FEATURE ARE
EXPECTED TO WEAKEN AS THEY LIFT NORTHEAST...ALLOWING HIGH PRESSURE
TO BUILD IN FROM THE WEST THROUGH THE DAY. IT SHOULD BE QUITE A
PLEASANT DAY WITH MOSTLY SUNNY SKIES AND LOW HUMIDITY. HIGHS WILL
STILL BE A BIT COOLER THAN NORMAL...MAINLY IN THE MID 70S.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY/...
MODELS ARE IN GOOD AGREEMENT SHIFTING THE TROUGH AXIS FROM JUST OFF
THE EAST COAST FRIDAY NIGHT TO FAR OFFSHORE BY SUNDAY. ZONAL FLOW
OVERSPREADS OUR AREA ON SUNDAY FOLLOWED BY A WEAK RIDGE BUILDING
FROM THE CENTRAL U.S. ON MONDAY. OVERALL WE EXPECT DRY CONDITIONS
THROUGH THIS PERIOD WITH TEMPERATURES TRENDING UPWARD EACH DAY.

&&

.AVIATION /01Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
CLUSTERS OF SHRA/TSRA WILL IMPACT THE TERMINALS EARLY TONIGHT IN
ADVANCE OF A COLD FRONT. THE WORST CONDITIONS HAVE ALREADY PASSED
KSAV. WE ARE SHOWING A 2 HOUR TEMPO WINDOW AT KCHS WITH A BOUT
MVFR CEILINGS IN -TSRA FROM 02-04Z.

THERE IS STILL A RISK FOR ANOTHER SHRA OR TSRA LATER TONIGHT INTO
EARLY WEDNESDAY UNTIL THE PASSAGE OF A COLD FRONT...BUT FOR THE
MOST PART VFR CONDITIONS WILL PREVAIL OVERNIGHT TONIGHT INTO
WEDNESDAY.

EXTENDED AVIATION OUTLOOK...VFR.

&&

.MARINE...
TONIGHT...A DECENT PACKING OF THE GRADIENT WILL PREVAIL BETWEEN AN
APPROACHING COLD FRONT THAT MOVES INTO OUR COASTAL WATERS AROUND
DAYBREAK WEDNESDAY AND A HIGH PRESSURE RIDGE TO THE SOUTH/SE OF
THE AREA. WARM ADVECTION IN ADVANCE OF THE FRONT WILL BE TAPER THE
AMOUNT OF MIXING AND ONCE CONVECTION MOVES IN THIS WILL ALSO MESS
UP THE SYNOPTIC PATTERN. THUS WE HAVE NOTHING HIGHER THAN ABOUT
15-18 KT. SEAS ON AVERAGE WILL BE 4 FT OR LESS. MARINERS ARE
ADVISED THAT STRONG TO SEVERE STORMS WILL MOVE IN DURING THE FIRST
PART OF THE NIGHT...SOME OF WHICH WILL PRODUCE WIND GUSTS IN
EXCESS OF 40 OR PERHAPS 50 KT...LARGE HAIL..FREQUENT LIGHTNING AND
VERY HEAVY RAINS. STAY IN PORT OR SEEK SAFE HARBOR IF STORMS
APPROACH. MONITOR NOAA WEATHER RADIO ALL HAZARDS.

WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY...MARINE CONDITIONS WILL DETERIORATE
BEGINNING WEDNESDAY NIGHT/EARLY THURSDAY AS THE PRESSURE GRADIENT
TIGHTENS BETWEEN LOW PRESSURE OVER THE MID ATLANTIC STATES AND HIGH
PRESSURE TO THE WEST. SMALL CRAFT ADVISORIES WILL LIKELY BE NEEDED
BEGINNING EARLY THURSDAY MORNING...STARTING IN THE OUTER GA
WATERS THEN EXPANDING TO ALL WATERS AS WIND GUSTS EXCEED 25 KT.
SEAS WILL BUILD TO 3-5 FT. CONDITIONS WILL BEGIN TO IMPROVE BY
FRIDAY MORNING. HIGH PRESSURE WILL RETURN FRIDAY AND PERSIST OVER
THE WEEKEND WITH WINDS GENERALLY 15 KT OR LESS. SEAS ON AVERAGE
LATE WEEK INTO THE WEEKEND 1-3 FEET.

&&

.EQUIPMENT...
THE CHARLESTON HARBOR NOS TIDE GAUGE HAS STOPPED REPORTING ALL
METEOROLOGICAL AND TIDE DATA. THE NATIONAL OCEAN SERVICE IS
INVESTIGATING THE CAUSE OF THE OUTAGE...AND IT IS POSSIBLE THAT A
SITE VISIT WILL BE PERFORMED BY LATE IN THE WEEK.

THE GRAYS REEF BUOY 41008 ALSO REMAINS OUT OF SERVICE...AND A SITE
VISIT BY NDBC IS EXPECTED DURING THE LATTER PART OF MAY TO EITHER
REPAIR THE SITE OR EXCHANGE FOR A NEW BUOY SYSTEM.
