Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Columbia SC
740 PM EDT Wed Jun 9 2021

.SYNOPSIS...
Expect scattered mainly afternoon and evening
showers and thunderstorms through Thursday. An upper trough and
surface boundary will gradually shift through the region Friday
and Saturday, leading to increased chances of showers and
thunderstorms. Some drier air will enter the region Sunday
through mid next week, reducing thunderstorm coverage.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH THURSDAY/...
A cluster of strong thunderstorms continues to impact southern
Orangeburg and Clarendon counties, including Lake Marion.
Collided outflows and fairly high CAPE will continue to trigger
these for the next hour or so. Heavy rainfall, frequent
lightning, and small hail is possible in these storms. The rest
of CWA is expected to remain dry overnight with only isolated
showers possible. Overnight lows will be in the upper 60s and
lower 70s under partly to mostly cloudy skies.

&&

.SHORT TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT/...
Upper ridge to remain centered to our SW over the E GOMEX Thursday,
with some slight upper heights falls for our forecast area (FA), as
an upper low over the Midwest slowly tracks into the Mid Atlantic.
Some upper impulses ahead of it to track east, mainly just to our
north, across the S Apps/NC/VA. Surface front to back door down the
eastern seaboard through VA into NC, remaining to our north into
Friday. Combination of upper energy, surface convergence near the
front, orographic lift, and highest atmospheric moisture will lead
to best convective coverage and rainfall amounts remaining just to
our N and NE. WPC has those areas outlooked in excessive rainfall
outlook. Sufficient moisture and instability over our FA expected to
lead to scattered diurnal convection. Southern stream upper trough
to shift into our FA late Friday/Friday night, with surface boundary
shifting south into our northern FA, along with increased moisture,
leading to increased POPs and mainly north.

&&

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
Weak southern stream upper troughiness, and surface boundary, and
high moisture values, to move through Saturday, with continued good
chance POPs. Some question as to when the upper trough and best
moisture will shift east of our region. NAEFS and GEFS indicate the
upper trough to shift to our east by Sunday with surface boundary
weakening or shifting to our south and east, with some drier air
entering the FA, especially north and central. Guidance in
generally good agreement with northern stream upper trough
digging into the E CONUS early to mid next week, with
anomalously low upper heights across the eastern seaboard. This
will lead to a drier NW flow aloft for our region, with drier
air shifting into the region from the north through the period.
Some guidance indicating a surface boundary passing through
Tue/Wed time frame. Model blend provides mainly slight chance to
low chance POPs through the period.

&&

.AVIATION /00Z THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
VFR conditions are largely expected to prevail through the period,
with the exception of showers/thunderstorms that persist through the
evening.

There is a decent bit going on across the FA but thankfully it has
avoided most of the terminals today. This should continue; though, I
can't rule out CAE/CUB/OGB getting in on the action again here soon.
There are storms near all three as of this writing. Any storms are
capable of primarily vis restrictions.

It looks like another nice night after all of this dissipates later
on. That should be quick to occur as the sun sets and instability
diminishes across the region. After that, it looks like skies will
gradually clear as the convective clouds diminish quickly. It is
perplexing that guidance has no stratus again tonight, given the
amount of rain we've seen lately & low level moisture in place. With
persistence being broken last night, I don't have stratus or fog in
the forecast tonight. Previous forecaster hedged with a SCT020 deck
everywhere and I will continue in that line of thinking. A low level
jet should prevent widespread fog from developing, but I think AGS
will likely see some transient fog again tonight.

Tomorrow, rinse and repeat. Some scattered afternoon showers are
likely to develop, but confidence isn't high enough to include that
in the TAF. Winds will generally be out of the southwest between 8
and 12 knots.

EXTENDED AVIATION OUTLOOK...Mainly diurnal showers and
thunderstorms with associated restrictions each day along with
late night/early morning stratus/fog.

&&

.CAE WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
GA...None.
SC...None.
