Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Charleston SC
723 PM EDT Fri Aug 3 2018

.SYNOPSIS...
Unsettled conditions will persist into the evening between high
pressure offshore and an inland trough of low pressure.
Atlantic high pressure will build in over the weekend, before
another inland trough develops during the early to middle part
of next week.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM SATURDAY MORNING/...
As of 720 PM: Thunderstorms remain across portions of Tattnall,
Evans, and Bulloch Counties. However, the rest of the region has
been throughly worked over, leaving remnant stratiform rain. I
will adjust PoPs and lower the intensity of the thunderstorms.
The Flash Flood Watch has expired.

Previous Discussion:
The mid-levels consist of a ridge over the Atlantic while a
trough stretches from the Great Lakes region southwards into the
northern Gulf of Mexico. The trough will start to retreat
northward as the ridge starts to creep its way into the
Southeast late tonight. At the surface, the Bermuda high is in
place to our east while a stationary front and trough is to our
west. These features will keep ushering a long plume of deep
tropical-like moisture into our area. PWATs exceed 2", on the
higher end of the climo scale for early August. Radar imagery
shows showers and thunderstorms developing along the sea breeze.
As the sea breeze slowly moves inland, it will bring the
convection with it. Though, radar trends and CAMS indicate it
will probably be faster to move inland along SC. The POPs
generally reflect a consensus of the CAMs. This equates to
higher POPs moving inland with the sea breeze and then remaining
elevated for our GA counties into this evening due to
persistent showers. Convection will dissipate by late this
evening and then get generated over the coastal waters and move
onshore, mainly along SC. Given the saturated grounds, it won't
take much rainfall to generate at least minor flooding and Flood
Advisories. Hence, the Flash Flood Watch continues into this
evening. For simplicity, we adjusted the end time to be
consistent across the entire area. Though, given the radar
trends it's looking less and less likely we will need to issue a
Flash Flood Warning. Areal Flood advisories are more likely
within any lines of storms that develop over the next few hours.
As for the severe threat, it remains low. Instability and
DCAPEs are lacking. However, given the saturated soils and the
potential for at least 30-40 mph wind gusts in a few of the
stronger storms, there certainly could be a few trees that are
knocked down even with these sub-severe conditions. Finally, low
temperatures will be near normal.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM SATURDAY MORNING THROUGH MONDAY/...
Saturday through Monday: Aloft, a ridge of high pressure will
expand from the western Atlantic, eventually becoming centered
over the Southeast United States Sunday, then gradually
weakening into Monday. At the sfc, the area will remain along
the western edge of Atlantic high pressure while a lee trough
develops inland. The general setup will present a much more
typical summertime pattern late weekend into early next week
with noticeably less shower/thunderstorm coverage than previous
days, particularly by Sunday and Monday as high pressure
dominates aloft. Although the pattern becomes less favorable for
widespread precip, a light onshore wind and afternoon seabreeze
should help provide the moisture and lifting needed for
convection each day. SBCAPE ranging between 1500-2500 J/kg and
PWATs between 1.5-2.0 inches support scattered showers and
thunderstorms during peak heating, a few which could be produce
strong wind gusts and/or brief moderate to heavy downpours.
However, the overall threat of severe weather will remain low
through the period.

Given the building ridge aloft, 1000-850mb thicknesses will be
more supportive of high temps near 90 degrees on Saturday away
from the coast, then lower 90s on Sunday and Monday away from
the immediate coast. Overnight periods should be rain free for
most locations with lows temps ranging in the low/mid 70s inland
to mid/upper 70s near the coast.

&&

.LONG TERM /MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY/...
H5 heights will slowly fall through the early to middle part of next
week as troughing develops across the eastern US. The main trough
axis looks to remain west of the area through the period, but weak
shortwaves progressing around the southern periphery of the trough
could result in periods of enhanced lift. At the surface, ridging
south of the area and persistent lee troughing inland will cause low
level flow to trend more west-southwesterly, and ample low level
moisture sourced from the Gulf of Mexico will remain in place.
Overall, thunderstorm chances will be modestly above normal,
reaching into the high-end chance range each afternoon, with the
usual diurnal trend of convective focus shifting over marine areas
at night. Temps will generally be near normal.

&&

.AVIATION /23Z FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
Remnant showers will continue in the vicinity of the terminals
through 1Z. The rest of the night, conditions should favor VFR
with SCT to BKN debris clouds. Another round of thunderstorms
are possible with the sea breeze Saturday, highlighted with at
PROB30 from 18Z-22Z.

Extended Aviation Outlook: Brief flight restrictions are possible
with afternoon showers and/or thunderstorms that impact either the
CHS or SAV terminal each day. Otherwise, VFR conditions will prevail
this weekend into early next week.

&&

.MARINE...
Tonight: The coastal waters will remain situated between high
pressure offshore and low pressure inland. This synoptic pattern
will generate southerly winds generally 15 kt or less. Seas will
average 2-4 ft.

Mariners are advised that showers and thunderstorms will impact
the waters tonight. Storms will produce heavy rains at times
reducing visibilities to under 1 nm, frequent cloud to water
lightning strikes, and gusts nearing 30 kt at times.

Saturday through Wednesday: High pressure will build over the
western Atlantic this weekend into early next week, resulting in
light southerly winds that generally remain around 10 kt or less
over the coastal waters. The exception will be along the land/sea
interface where a seabreeze circulation develops each day and
supports winds around 10-15 kt. Sfc winds should then gradually turn
more southwesterly towards the middle of next week as high pressure
continues to slide west over the area. As the high transitions over
the area, 2-4 ft seas this weekend will gradually subside to 1-3 ft
early next week.

Waterspouts: Given lighter wind fields there appears to be some
potential for isolated waterspouts each morning from Saturday
through Monday.
