AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHARLESTON SC 945 AM EDT THU JUN 02 2005 .SHORT TERM /TODAY/...PLENTY OF SUN POKING THROUGH THIS MORNING PARTICULARLY OVER THE NRN PORTION OF THE AREA. LOW CLOUDS MOVING INTO THE SE GA PORTION AT THIS TIME. THESE CLOUDS SHOULD LIFT INTO A DECENT CU FIELD WITH A BIT MORE SUN. TEMPS ALREADY IN THE MID TO UPPER 70S AND EXPECT FURTHER INCREASES WITH RATHER STRONG WAA AND ANTICIPATED BREAKS IN CLOUDS. WILL KEEP AN EYE ON LATEST TEMP TRENDS BEFORE MAKING FINAL DECISION BUT WILL LIKELY GO WITH MID 80S MANY LOCATIONS. DEWPTS IN THE LOWER 70S. FRONTAL BNDRY JUST TO THE N OF THE AREA THIS MORNING AND MAY MAKE A BIT MORE PROGRESS N THIS AFTN. MODIFIED MORNING SOUNDING INDICATES RATHER STRONG INSTABILITY. SHORTWAVE ENERGY EXPECTED TO MOVE ACROSS THE AREA WITH STRONGEST DYNAMICS PROBABLY HOLDING OFF UNTIL THIS AFTN. ALREADY SEEING A SHOWER OR TWO IN THE AREA THIS MORNING. THE AREA IS IN A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE. ANY CELLS THAT CAN GET ORGANIZED ENOUGH WILL HAVE THE CHANCE OF PRODUCING DAMAGING WINDS. HAIL DOES NOT SEEM REAL LIKELY GIVEN HIGH WBZ VALUES. AN ISOLATED TORNADO MAY NOT BE OUT OF THE QUESTION HOWEVER HELICITY VALUES ARE NOT AS IMPRESSIVE AS YDAY GIVEN THE FACT THAT THE FRONTAL BNDRY IS NOW N OF THE REGION AND LOW LVL WINDS HAVE BECOME SRLY. SOME BACKING TO THE WIND IS EXPECTED WITH A RESULTANT SEA BREEZE THIS AFTN WHICH COULD INCREASE HELICITY VALUES. SEA BREEZE SHOULD MAKE DECENT PROGRESS INLAND AND PROVIDE A FOCUS FOR CONVECTION ALONG WITH ANY STORMS THAT MOVE IN FROM THE W AND SW. ANY FLOODING ISSUES WILL LIKELY BE VERY ISOLATED TODAY. ALTHOUGH PLENTY OF MOISTURE IS AVAILABLE WITH A PW OF NEARLY 2 INCHES...THE STORMS SHOULD BE MOVING AT A DECENT CLIP TODAY. WILL LIKLEY NEED TRAINING OF ECHOES OR BNDRY INTERACTIONS TO KEEP STORMS STUCK OVER THE SAME LOCATION TO GIVE FLOODING RAINS OF TWO INCHES OR MORE. && .MARINE...FOR THE MID-MORNING FCST WILL DROP MENTION OF SCSEC FOR OUTER GA WATERS AS SEAS ARE DOWN TO NEAR 4 FT. WILL ALSO ADJUST INITIAL WINDS TO ACCOUNT FOR CURRENT SW FLOW MOST AREAS...BUT WILL ALLOW THEM TO VEER TO S THIS AFTERNOON. WILL KEEP WIND SPEEDS 15 KT OR LESS TODAY. && .AVIATION...LOW CIGS AT SAV EXPECTED TO BEGIN LIFTING NEXT HOUR OR TWO LOOKING AT UPSTREAM OBSERVATIONS.
