What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this small craft advisory 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 small craft advisory went out at Feb 9, 12:05 PM EST, 2 hours 44 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Feb 9, 12:05 PM EST, 2 hours 44 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Charleston SC
1205 PM EST Sun Feb 9 2025

.SYNOPSIS...
High pressure today will give way to a cold front tonight. High
pressure will build in from the north Monday into Tuesday. A
warm front will develop nearby on Wednesday, then lift north,
followed by a stronger cold front late in the week.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
The forecast is on track. No significant changes made for the
early afternoon update.

Today: Aloft, zonal flow will continue to prevail across the
Southeast. At the surface, the forecast area will be situated
within the warm sector ahead of a cold front that will work its
way into the lee of the Appalachians and begin to approach from
the north late. The day will begin with a large area of low
stratus spreading across the forecast area in the morning. This
stratus will eventually mix out and dissipate and we will see a
good amount of sun which will provide us with yet another very
warm afternoon. As the front approaches from the north late,
model guidance is in decent agreement that there will be
sufficient low-level convergence to kick off isolated shower
activity. This activity will be confined to the northern portion
of the Tri-County region, mainly for locations around
Summerville, Moncks Corner, and the Francis Marion National
Forest. The gradient across the forecast area will be enough to
drive elevated winds with some breezy conditions. Winds will be
westerly with sustained winds 10-15 mph and gusts up as high as
20 mph at times. The greater westerly component will also work
to keep the sea breeze pinned closer to the coast, meaning that
we can expect warmer temperatures closer to the coast. Highs are
forecast to top out in the upper 70s to low 80s which will
again be near daily records (see Climate section below).

Tonight: The backdoor cold front will start to push into the
area from the north this evening and the convergence zone along
the front will remain positioned across the northern half of the
forecast area. Model consensus suggests that isolated to
scattered showers will go through the overnight period with the
best chances across our SC counties. No significant rainfall is
expected with amounts mostly less than a tenth of an inch.
Cooler air will start to work in from the north, and lows will
exhibit a significant north to south difference. Locations up
along the Santee River could dip into the upper 40s while areas
along the Altamaha River only fall into the upper 50s.

&&

.SHORT TERM /MONDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
Zonal flow will dominate in the mid to upper levels of the
atmosphere on Monday while at the surface a Cold Air Damming
(CAD) pattern develops, with high pressure building in from the
north. This pattern will persist into Tuesday. Both days will
feature a pronounced temperature gradient from north to south,
with locations generally north of I-26 in SC reaching around 60F
and mid 70s along the Altamaha River in GA. Overnight lows will
also feature a temperature gradient, with low 40s across
northern locations and low 50s far south. Additionally some weak
upper level shortwaves will ripple across the southeastern
states, possibly triggering isolated to scattered showers each
day.

On Wednesday broad troughing will develop aloft and a warm
front will lift northward across the forecast area, putting the
region within the warm sector of a developing low pressure
system. With the SW flow aloft a warm, moist airmass will be
ushered into the region and temperatures will reach into the 70s
to low 80s across the area with dew points surging into the low
60s. Isolated to scattered showers will be possible as well.

&&

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY/...
The broad troughing aloft will persist Wednesday night into
Thursday with a cold front at the surface pushing through the
region Thursday. Scattered to numerous showers will be possible
Thursday ahead of the cold front. Additionally decent
instability (ML CAPE values ~300 J/kg) as well as the warm,
moist airmass will yield the potential for thunder. This
forecast has introduced slight chance of thunder in the
afternoon hours on Thursday. Unsettled weather will persist
through the weekend as shortwaves ripple across the southeastern
states aloft, with isolated to scattered showers possible each
day. Temperatures will remain above normal.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
Gusty westerly winds will continue through the afternoon as a
cold front approaches from the northwest. Later this evening, isolated
showers will be possible near KCHS and KJZI. The coverage of
showers will increase late tonight, mainly across the Charleston
Tri-County region, as the backdoor front sinks southward. We
leave direct impacts of -RA out of the TAF for now and maintain
VCSH at KCHS and KJZI. Meanwhile, ceilings will lower late
tonight into Monday morning especially at KCHS/KJZI once in the
wake of the front. Most guidance hinting toward LIFR conditions
with potential low stratus/fog developing again late tonight as
moisture gets trapped below a strong inversion, which could
last well into Monday afternoon. KSAV will see a slightly
similar pattern, but staggered behind several hours as the front
slowly marches southward.

Extended Aviation Outlook: Brief periods of flight restrictions
will be possible with showers into the week.

&&

.MARINE...
Today through tonight: Southwest flow will peak this morning
across the waters, with 10-15 knots everywhere and even some
15-20 knots for the Charleston County waters and the outer GA
waters. Overnight, winds will diminish through the evening. Late
tonight, a surge of northeast flow will begin to build into the
Charleston County waters as the backdoor cold front sinks in.
Seas should remain within the 2-4 ft range.

Monday through Friday: High pressure will build into the region
on Monday, with a wedge pattern developing through mid-week. A
stronger cold front will push through the region Thursday. Some
6 ft seas could develop along the outer skirts of the Charleston
County nearshore waters and the 20 to 60 nm offshore GA waters
Monday afternoon, possibly necessitating Small Craft Advisories.
Additionally, NE wind gusts could approach 25 knots in all
marine zones Monday afternoon. Thereafter conditions should
remain below Small Craft Advisory criteria until the cold front
on Thursday. Wind gusts on Thursday could again approach 25
knots, especially within the Charleston County nearshore waters
and the 20 to 60 nm offshore GA waters.
