What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this severe thunderstorm warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS Charleston, SC wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at May 23, 4:27 PM EDT, 1 hour 2 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, May 23, 4:27 PM EDT, 1 hour 2 minutes before

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Charleston SC
427 PM EDT Mon May 23 2022

.SYNOPSIS...
Warm and humid conditions along with a few smaller scale
systems moving through, will maintain unsettled weather across
the area through much of the week. Drier conditions could then
return this weekend.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM TUESDAY MORNING/...
This Evening and Tonight: An area of low pressure will continue to
shift north-northeast across northern Georgia and eventually into
the South Carolina Upstate and western North Carolina while much of
the region remains along the edge of high pressure centered across
the western Atlantic. Low-lvl convergence extending well south of
the low pressure center, depicted via sfc obs and visible sat
imagery, will continue to initiate showers/thunderstorms just west
of the area, which will eventually shift into inland areas during
the next several hours. Ahead of this convection, strong sfc heating
has already aided in the development of a few strong/severe
thunderstorms. Although mid-lvl lapse rates are somewhat weak,
southerly sfc winds will continue to draw moisture into the region
with most areas exhibiting dewpts in the the lower 70s and PWATs
approaching 1.75 inches. MLCAPE ranging between 2000-2500 J/kg
combined with 35-40 kt low-mid lvl flow are expected to result in
strong and/or severe thunderstorms during the next several hours
away from the coast, where a Severe Thunderstorm Watch is now in
effect until 11 PM. Hail CAPE and DCAPE near 800 J/kg support
damaging winds and hail with thunderstorms moving into the area.
Brief heavy rainfall is also possible, resulting in minor flooding.

Hi-res models still indicate clusters and/or a broken line of
showers and thunderstorms progressing east-northeast through inland
areas this evening, but in a weakening state after sunset. However,
sufficient instability and modest shear along with cold pooling
could push convection to the I-95 corridor in an enhanced state with
damaging winds, hail, and heavy rain. After midnight, dry conditions
should prevail. Despite cloud cover, ample moisture from recent
rains and favorable condensation pressure deficits suggest the
potential for some patchy fog inland. Low temps should remain mild,
generally ranging in the upper 60s to lower 70s.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM TUESDAY MORNING THROUGH THURSDAY/...
Pattern Synopsis/Forecast: Strong Pacific short-wave energy will dig
into the southern and central Plains heading into midweek, with a
mid-level low closing off along the the front range of the Rockies
Tuesday before slowly progressing into the Plains. System is a bit
stronger, deeper and slower than in previous guidance forecasts.
Downstream, upper level ridging will hold along the SE states into
the Atlantic through the short-term period with warm and modestly
moist conditions persisting across the region.

Convective evolution and precip chances remain the main forecast
challenge through the short-term. After today's round of convection
wanes later tonight, appears we will start the day Tuesday rain-
free, probably through the morning hours. Ample low level moisture
and daytime heating will drive MLCAPE values into the 1-2K J/Kg
range for the afternoon. Recent high-res CAM guidance along with the
NAM/GFS continue to suggest we see another round of thunderstorm
development later in afternoon into the evening, possibly along any
residual outflows from todays storms as well as sea breeze
interactions. But unlike today, flow aloft/shear profiles will be a
bit weaker owing to the departure of the Gulf low. No doubt there
will be some strong storms to monitor, but an organized severe
weather threat looks lower than today. Still quite a bit of
uncertainty regarding the timing and coverage, and thus I will
maintain just chancy pops for now.

Wednesday and Thursday may quiet down some. But with the warm and
somewhat humid conditions remaining, we will have to maintain some
chances for showers and storms for the afternoon into the evening.

Temperatures through the period will remain at or a little above
normal for late May.

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY/...
Closed upper level low will be slowly migrating through the SE CONUS
and Gulf Coast region through most of the extended period, pressing
a boundary into the region late Friday into Saturday. But, as is
typically the case with these closed upper lows, timing is
problematic (slower is usually better and guidance is already slower
today compared to yesterday). Right now, highest rain chances will
come with the front later Friday/Friday night, with a potential
drying trend heading into the weekend and early next week. Will see
how that goes and adjust as we go along. Temperatures through the
period will remain around normal.

&&

.AVIATION /20Z MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
VFR conditions should prevail through 18Z Tuesday at CHS/JZI/SAV
terminals. However, showers and thunderstorms could impact all
terminals this evening, which could temporarily produce MVFR/IFR or
potentially lower conditions. At this time, shower/thunderstorm
activity has been delayed until at least 21Z, where VCTS has been
included at all TAF sites for a few hours. Should trends become more
favorable, TEMPO groups for thunderstorms will likely be needed.

Extended Aviation Outlook: VFR conditions will largely prevail
throughout the week. However, flight restrictions remain possible at
times at the terminals, as periodic showers and thunderstorms impact
the region during the afternoon into the evening. A touch of fog is
also possible each morning as well.

&&

.MARINE...
This Evening and Tonight: Southerly winds will prevail, with speeds
mostly in the 10-15 kt range or less during the overnight period.
However, some enhancement remains along the land/sea interface late
this afternoon/evening, with gusts around 20 kt at times. Seas will
range between 2-3 ft through the period.

Tuesday through Saturday: Conditions will remain below Small Craft
Advisory levels through midweek, although locally higher winds and
waves will occur with any storms that move through the coastal
waters. A bit stronger south to southeasterly flow along with higher
seas develop through the coastal waters late in the week as a strong
cold front approaches from the west. However, at this juncture,
winds and seas are still expected to remain below headline
criteria.
