Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Charleston SC
333 PM EDT Tue Jun 9 2020

.SYNOPSIS...
A weak trough will linger over the area through Wednesday. A
cold front will then stall over the area Thursday into the
weekend. Another cold front will approach the area early next
week.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM WEDNESDAY MORNING/...
As of 330 PM: Latest water vapor images indicated that a band of
deeper moisture extended from the remnants of Cristobal, across
portions of SC/NC, to the Bahamas. Recently observed sfc dewpoints
ranged from the mid 70s inland to the upper 70s along the coast. SPC
mesoanalysis indicated MLCAPE between 1500-2000 J/kg across most of
the CWA, with DCAPE as high as 1100 J/kg. Visible satellite
indicated a weak sea breeze just inland from the beaches. Showers
and thunderstorms will likely continue to develop along and west of
the sea breeze this afternoon and evening. An approaching mid-level
disturbance and established cold pool will cross SE GA through this
evening. These storms should push across SE GA, sliding off the GA
coast before dissipating. The environment will support periods of
heavy downpours and possibly isolated damaging wind gusts.
Convection should generally end by midnight. Using a blend of MOS,
low temperatures are forecast to range in the mid 70s.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM WEDNESDAY MORNING THROUGH FRIDAY/...
Unsettled and muggy conditions on tap for the mid to late week
period. A mid level ridge will sit over the western Atlantic while
broad troughing moves into the eastern U.S. At the surface, a cold
front will slowly approach from the west, likely entering the
forecast area on Thursday before stalling out over the region
through Friday. This synoptic setup will favor a deep moisture feed
into the area.

Scattered to numerous showers and thunderstorms are forecast to
develop each day, especially Thursday and Friday with the front in
the vicinity. Coverage will peak during the daytime when instability
is maximized, but activity is possible overnight as well. Organized
severe weather threat appears low given lack of shear, however a
couple stronger storms are certainly possible with locally damaging
wind gusts being the primary the hazard. Perhaps the bigger threat
would be heavy rainfall with PWats near 2 inches and fairly weak
storm motions.

High temperatures will peak in the upper 80s to around 90 Wednesday
and Thursday, however elevated dew points will make it feel hotter.
Highs on Friday are only expected to make it to the mid 80s. Lows
overnight will be much more mild than normal, staying in the low to
mid 70s.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY/...
A fairly unsettled weather pattern is anticipated during the weekend
as the area remains positioned become a ridge of high pressure
offshore and to the south and a trough of low pressure slowly
expanding across the area from the north. The setup should favor few
to scattered showers and thunderstorms during the weekend, but then
slightly less coverage heading through early next week as a cold
front arrives from the west/northwest and pushes the bulk of deepest
moisture offshore. Afternoon highs should range in the mid/upper 80s
this weekend and early next week. Overnight lows should range in the
upper 60s/lower 70s this weekend, then mid/upper 60s away from the
coast early next week.

&&

.AVIATION /20Z TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
Scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms will develop along
a sea breeze across the CHS Tri-county. The convection is
expected to remain just east of KCHS, the TAF will feature VCSH
until 23Z. A cluster of thunderstorms should develop ahead of
an approaching disturbance, thunderstorms may pass near or over
KSAV between 20-24Z, highlighted with a TEMPO. Periods of ground
fog may develop over areas that rain this evening. At this
time, the TAFs will not feature restrictive ceilings or
visibility tonight. Showers are forecast to develop along a sea
breeze late Wednesday morning, highlighted with VCSH at 16Z.

Extended Aviation Outlook: Tempo flight restrictions due to showers
and thunderstorms are possible each day, especially Thursday and
Friday.

&&

.MARINE...
Tonight: The coastal waters will remain between a cold front near
the Mississippi River Valley and sfc high pressure centered over the
western Atlantic. Southwest winds are expected to generally range
between 5-10 kts across the waters tonight. Seas are forecast to
range between 2-3 ft.

Wednesday through Sunday: A cold front is expected to approach from
the west then stall over the region through late week. This pattern
will favor south to southeast winds over the local waters. Speeds
will largely remain 15 knots or less, however a brief increase to
the 15-20 knot range is possible on Thursday. Winds/seas are then
expected to remain well below Small Craft Advisory levels over the
weekend and early next week with wind speeds generally at or below
10-15 kts and seas no higher than 2-3 ft.

&&

.EQUIPMENT...
The KCLX radar will remain out of service for equipment upgrades
through June 11, and radar data will not be available during this
time. Neighboring radars include: Wilmington, NC (KLTX);
Jacksonville, FL (KJAX); Moody AFB, GA (KVAX); Warner Robins AFB, GA
(KJGX); and Columbia, SC (KCAE).
