Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Greenville-Spartanburg SC
203 AM EDT FRI SEP 2 2016

.SYNOPSIS...
A cold front will become stationary tonight from central Georgia to
across the Carolinas as Hermine moves northeast from the Gulf.  Very
heavy rain will affect most of the Carolinas on Friday with the
passage of Hermine.  A Canadian air mass will build over the region
in the wake of the tropical cyclone. Temperatures will warm into the
middle of next week.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TODAY/...
As of 200 AM, it appears that the southward progress of the weak
frontal boundary has stalled across the lower piedmont of NE GA and
Upstate SC. Upper divergence gradually increasing from the northern
tier overnight may actually bring a bit of this activity back toward
the I-85 corridor through daybreak. In addition, the outermost rain
bands from the Hermine is moving in as well. It will be a wet early
morning in the lower piedmont.

Meanwhile, satellite imagery continues to show the Hermine
circulation has made landfall along the FL big bend region and the
latest NHC forecast remains on track. This will bring the center of
circulation likely across SE GA Friday morning and across eastern SC
Friday afternoon/evening. Rain bands and frontal interaction will
lead to high likely to categorical PoPs across the southeast half of
the region through late day. The current Flash Flood Watch appears
well placed. Winds should not become a problem until Friday
afternoon when the gradient will increase quickly NW of the system.
Still expect sub advisory winds/gusts on the current track, but
certainly breezy to windy in the eastern half late day. Temps will
be unusually cool owing to the strong NE flow, and extensive cloud
cover and precip.

&&

.SHORT TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY/...
As of 145 PM Thursday: The remnants of TC Hermine will be situated
across the SC low country early Sat accelerating to the NE. The
op models are in decent agreement with this scenario other than the
NAM12...which although has sped up...is still a slower nw/ly
outlier. More weight will be given to the EC/GFS solns which would
still produce a good amount of rainfall through 12Z Sat. Around an
additional inch over the far ern zones. Thus the potential for
localized flash flooding will remain high through mid morning Sat.

The atmos begins to dry out through a deep layer Sat afternoon
across the entire CWFA as PWAT values drop to arnd an inch or so.
With a stable n/ly sfc flow and a very strong subs inversion setting
up arnd 12 Kft...the potential for afternoon shra/tstms will be nil.
Mainly sct fair-wx CU with highs in the L80s non/mtns and U70s mtn
valleys. Another very nice day will be in store Sun as low sfc
dewpoints prevail and the column continues to dry out. With good
insol and a modifying s/ly llvl flow...max temps will increase a cat
or so...but still a couple degrees below normal.

&&

.LONG TERM /SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY/...
As of 210 PM Thursday, At the start of the medium range on Sunday
night, the low pressure that was Hermine will be located off the
Delaware coast and slowly moving away.  The departure of this system
along with surface high pressure over the East states will continue
a cooling north wind into the Carolinas to start the week. However,
during the first half of the week an upper ridge will build over the
SE states resulting in temperatures progressively becoming warmer
each day into mid week.  Models show the ridge flattening out on
Thursday with 500mb flow becoming west to east on the ECMWF. The
ridge slightly reamplifies Thursday night and after the current
forecast as a trough digs over the northern Rockies.  Shortwaves in
the mid to 500mb level may be close enough going into Thursday night
to bring some convection near the mtns and therefore considering a
slight chance of rain at that time.

Max and Min temps near normal on Monday then becoming at least a
category above normal through mid week.

&&

.AVIATION /06Z FRIDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
At KCLT: although Hermine will pass well east of the airfield, there
will be significant impacts from the storm. Expect low clouds and
precip from the outer rainbands to spread into the area by daybreak
with MVFR cigs and stronger NE winds. IFR cigs and MVFR vsby will
develop after daybreak with increasingly gusty NE winds. Cigs rise
to MVFR by evening but rain and gusty winds continue until nearly
midnight when rain diminishes and cigs rise to low VFR. Gusts will
diminish by then, but winds remain breezy.

Elsewhere: KAVL to KHKY should be a bit drier than the Upstate SC
TAF sites. Expect a steady downward trend in ceilings through MVFR
overnight and into IFR through the morning. N to NE winds will
increase with gusts likely from near daybreak through late day.
Conditions improve by late afternoon or early evening but gusts will
linger until mid to late evening.

Outlook: Conditions improve after midnight as Hermine moves NE of
the area. Much drier conditions are expected the latter half of the
weekend through early next week.

.HYDROLOGY...
No further evening changes are planned to the existing Flash Flood
Watch as the pre/frontal activity continues to settle southeast of
the I-85 corridor tonight. Still anticipate late night resurgence
from the southeast with the outermost rain bands of Hermine, with
heavy rain showers in eastern sections falling on increasingly
saturated ground from today's rainfall. It remains possible that a
Predecessor Rainfall Event could still develop near or southeast of
I-85 overnight, but the window is slowly closing as Hermine moves
north and narrows the distance between the tropical system and the
existing low level theta e gradient. QPF numbers remain close to WPC
values.
