AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GREENVILLE-SPARTANBURG SC
102 PM EST TUE JAN 12 2016

.SYNOPSIS...
DRY AND COLD HIGH PRESSURE WILL SETTLE OVER THE AREA ON
WEDNESDAY...WITH CONDITIONS WARMING A FEW DEGREES ON THURSDAY.
A COMPLEX LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL APPROACH FROM THE WEST ON
FRIDAY...WITH UNSETTLED CONDITIONS LIKELY THROUGH THE WEEKEND
AS A SERIES OF LOW PRESSURE SYSTEMS AFFECT THE SOUTHEAST U.S.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
1230 PM UPDATE...MOST OF THE IMPACTFUL WEATHER FOR THE NEAR TERM
WILL BE THIS AFTERNOON AS MOSTLY DRY COLD FRONT PUSHES INTO THE
REGION. THIS FRONT IS ASSOCIATED WITH SFC LOW MOVING EWD OUT
OF THE GREAT LAKES AND PRODUCING STRONG GRADIENT FLOW ACROSS
THE ERN SEABOARD. MIDLEVEL LAPSE RATES WILL IMPROVE THRU LATE
AFTERNOON...ALLOWING ESPECIALLY DEEP MIXING. GUST POTENTIAL WILL
BE BETTER THAN USUAL. WITH THE FLOW TURNING MORE NWLY INTO THE
MOUNTAINS...SOME LIGHT PRECIP IS EXPECTED TO DEVELOP. HIGH-RES
MODEL SOUNDINGS SUGGEST THAT PROFILES WILL ONLY BRIEFLY SUPPORT
SNOW CRYSTAL GROWTH...BEING FOR A PORTION OF AN ALREADY BRIEF
EVENT. ACCUMULATION IS EXPECTED TO BE UNDER A HALF INCH...WITH
PRECIP TAPERING OFF QUICKLY AFTER SUNSET AS WINDS THERE BEGIN
TO SUBSIDE.

IN THE PIEDMONT...AS LAPSE RATES PEAK LATE THIS AFTERNOON...MOST
GUIDANCE SUGGESTS SHALLOW CONVECTION WILL OCCUR ATOP THE DEEP
BOUNDARY LAYER...PRODUCING A SCATTERED CU FIELD. IT IS QUESTIONABLE
WHETHER THESE CU WILL BE DEEP ENOUGH FOR ANY PRECIP TO DEVELOP...BUT
IF SO...THE BOUNDARY LAYER WILL BE TOO DRY FOR IT TO REACH THE
GROUND. THERE HAS BEEN SOME DISCUSSION ABOUT EVAPORATING PRECIP
POSSIBLY CREATING DOWNDRAFTS THAT WOULD CARRY EVEN STRONGER
/ADVISORY-LEVEL/ GUSTS TO THE SFC. CONFIDENCE ON THIS OCCURRENCE
IS LOW...BUT WHEN CU DO DEVELOP IT IS SOMETHING TO KEEP IN MIND.

MORE DETAILS TO COME WITH FULL PACKAGE DISCUSSION.

&&

.SHORT TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
AS OF 300 AM EST TUESDAY...COLD SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE WILL SETTLE
OVER THE REGION ON WEDNESDAY...WITH LINGERING MORNING WIND CHILL
ISSUES IN MAINLY THE NORTHERN NC MOUNTAINS. A TRAIN OF WEAK
SHORTWAVES WILL THEN CROSS THE AREA FROM THE WEST THROUGH WEDNESDAY
NIGHT. THE DEEPER MOISTURE WITH THESE FEATURES SHOULD REMAIN
GENERALLY NORTH OF THE FORECAST AREA...BUT SHALLOW WESTERN MOUNTAIN
UPSLOPE MOISTURE WILL BE POSSIBLE THURSDAY MORNING. WILL ADVERTISE
MAINLY INCREASED MOUNTAIN CLOUDS VERSUS ANY SNOW SHOWERS GIVEN THE
VERY SHALLOW NATURE OF THE MOISTURE. TEMPERATURES WILL RECOVER TO
SLIGHTLY ABOVE NORMAL VALUES BY THURSDAY AFTERNOON AS UPPER HEIGHTS
RISE ACROSS THE SOUTHEAST IN ADVANCE OF A DIGGING WESTERN SYSTEM
MOVING FROM ROCKIES INTO THE PLAINS.

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY/...
AS OF 300 AM EST TUESDAY...THE CENTRAL CONUS TROUGH WILL SHARPEN UP
OVER THE MID MS RIVER VALLEY THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY...WITH
SHORTWAVE ENERGY EJECTING NORTHEAST AHEAD OF THIS TROUGH FROM THE
GULF COAST TO THE SOUTHERN APPALACHIANS. THE LATEST ECMWF REMAINS
SLIGHTLY FASTER THAN THE GFS/NAM IN BRINGING RETURN FLOW MOISTURE
AHEAD OF THIS SYSTEM BACK INTO THE AREA ON FRIDAY MORNING. THIS
WOULD HAVE PTYPE CONSEQUENCES...WITH AN EARLIER ONSET CREATING THE
POSSIBILITY OF BRIEF LIGHT FREEZING RAIN IN THE COLDER SHELTERED
VALLEY AND NORTHERN TIER LOCATIONS. AN ENSEMBLE MEAN SOLUTION WILL
BE FOLLOWED WHICH KEEPS THE DURATION OF ANY FREEZING RAIN VERY
BRIEF. OTHERWISE...PROFILES WILL BE SUFFICIENTLY WARM TO KEEP/TURN
ALL PRECIPITATION LIQUID THROUGH FRIDAY EVENING. THE NUMERICAL
MODELS ARE COMING INTO BETTER AGREEMENT ON THE TRACK OF A SURFACE
LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM SHUTTLING QUICKLY NORTHEAST THROUGH THE COASTAL
PLAIN OF THE CAROLINAS FRIDAY/FRIDAY NIGHT. THIS WOULD PLACE THE
HEAVIEST QPF OVER PIEDMONT SECTIONS. ALSO...A POCKET OF 6 TO 6.5 DEG
C PER KM LAPSE RATES SHOULD ACCOMPANY THIS LOW PASSAGE. ELEVATED
CONVECTION IN THE LOWER PIEDMONT SEEMS POSSIBLE...BUT THE SURFACE
BASED INSTABILITY REMAINS SHUNTED OFF TO THE SOUTHEAST WHERE THUNDER
CHANCES WILL BE GREATER.

THE PHASING WAVE SHOULD LIFT ACROSS THE APPALACHIANS ON FRIDAY NIGHT
WITH MID/UPPER LEVEL DRYING WRAPPING IN QUICKLY FROM THE SOUTHWEST.
LOW LEVEL WESTERLY FLOW MOISTURE WILL PERSIST LATE FRIDAY NIGHT
THROUGH SATURDAY...WITH A COLD FROPA SENDING SUB FREEZING 850 MB
TEMPERATURES ACROSS MOST OF THE AREA. THIS WILL SET THE STAGE FOR
ANOTHER WAVE REAMPLIFYING THE CENTRAL CONUS TROUGH ON SATURDAY...
WITH AN ASSOCIATED SYSTEM DIGGING ACROSS THE NORTHERN GULF OF MEXICO
SATURDAY NIGHT AND LIFTING THROUGH THE SOUTHEAST ON SUNDAY. THERE
REMAINS CONSIDERABLE UNCERTAINTY WITH THE HANDLING OF THIS SYSTEM
AND THE THERMAL PROFILES ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA. SOME DEGREE OF A
RAIN/SNOW MIX WILL CONTINUE TO BE FEATURED...WITH FROZEN PTYPES MORE
LIKELY IN WESTERN AND NORTHERN SECTIONS OVER THE WEEKEND. NORTHWEST
FLOW MOISTURE SHOULD CONTINUE TO WRING OUT SNOW SHOWERS OVER THE
WESTERN MOUNTAINS THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT. THE REGION SHOULD REMAIN
UNDER A BROAD EASTERN TROUGH THROUGH MONDAY WITH YET ANOTHER
REINFORCING COLD FRONT APPROACHING FROM THE NORTHWEST.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
AT KCLT AND ELSEWHERE EAST OF THE MTNS...VFR THRU THE PERIOD
WITH THE MAIN CONCERN BEING BRISK WINDS THIS AFTERNOON WITH DRY
COLD FRONT PUSHING THRU. ENHANCED MIXING WILL BRING DOWN FREQUENT
25-30 KT GUSTS ACRS THE REGION...WITH SITES SEEING ONE OR TWO PEAK
UPWARDS OF 35 KT. PREVAILING DIR WILL BE SW-WSW...GOING NW AFTER
SUNSET. HIGH BASED CU ARE EXPECTED TO BREAK OUT LATE IN THE AFTN
ON ACCOUNT OF IMPROVING LAPSE RATES ATOP THE BOUNDARY LAYER...BUT
CLEAR SKIES WILL RETURN OVERNIGHT. AS HIGH PRESSURE MOVES OVER
THE DEEP SOUTH WEDNESDAY...SOME WINDS MAY BACK TO SW AGAIN BEFORE
18Z...BUT MORE LIKELY AFTER 18Z.

AT KAVL...FLOW IS PROVING STRONG ENOUGH TO PRODUCE A CROSS-VALLEY
WIND...AND THUS A CROSSWIND AT THE FIELD. HOWEVER ANY VARIATION
IS MORE LIKELY TO BE TOWARD NW THIS AFTN...WITH SOLIDLY NW WINDS
SETTING IN TONIGHT. GUST POTENTIAL WILL BE SIMILAR TO THE PIEDMONT
SITES. UPSLOPE FLOW WILL PRODUCE SOME LOW CLOUDS ALONG THE SPINE
OF THE APPALACHIANS THRU THIS EVENING...BUT IT IS UNLIKELY THAT
A RESTRICTIVE CIG WILL FORM OVER THE FIELD.

OUTLOOK...DRY AND VFR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED THROUGH THURSDAY.
MOISTURE WILL BEGIN TO RETURN TO THE REGION ON FRIDAY...AS HIGH
PRES SHIFTS EAST AND LOW PRES ORGANIZES TO OUR WEST.

.FIRE WEATHER...
A DRY AIR MASS WILL REMAIN IN PLACE ACRS THE PIEDMONT...AS
WEST-SOUTHWEST WINDS INCREASE AND BECOME GUSTY THIS AFTN. THE LATEST
FCST HAS RH BOTTOMING OUT AROUND 26-30 PERCENT WITH WINDS AT LEAST
BRIEFLY REACHING RED FLAG CRITERIA ACRS MUCH OF THE PIEDMONT OF
NE GA AND THE WESTERN CAROLINAS. IF TEMPS ARE EVEN A DEG OR TWO
WARMER THAN FCST AND/OR THE DWPTS LOWER...WE MAY REACH CRITICAL
RH. COORDINATION WITH LAND MANAGEMENT OFFICIALS INDICATES THAT
MOST FUEL MOISTURES ARE STILL HIGH ENOUGH TO PRECLUDE THE NECESSITY
OF A RED FLAG WARNING...BUT WE WILL ISSUE A FIRE DANGER STATEMENT
FOR AREAS WHERE CONDITIONS ARE WORST.

ALTHOUGH WINDS WILL ABATE SOMEWHAT ON WEDNESDAY...EVEN DRIER
CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED WITH RH VALUES FALLING TO BETWEEN 20 AND
25 PERCENT IN MANY AREAS. FUELS WILL CONTINUE TO DRY OUT AS WELL.
