NWS Charleston, SC wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Jun 4, 2:45 PM EST, 1 hour 39 minutes earlier.
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHARLESTON SC 345 PM EDT FRI JUN 4 2010 .SYNOPSIS... ATLANTIC HIGH PRESSURE AND AN INLAND TROUGH OF LOW PRESSURE WILL PERSIST THROUGH THE WEEKEND. A COLD FRONT WILL PUSH INTO THE REGION FROM THE NORTH EARLY NEXT WEEK...BEFORE STALLING AND DISSIPATING THROUGH MID WEEK. && .NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM SATURDAY MORNING/... THE SEABREEZE HAS SPARKED SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS SOUTHEAST SOUTH CAROLINA...WHILE A PROMINENT SHORTWAVE MOVING UP FROM THE GULF OF MEXICO HAS MAINTAINED PERSISTENT CONVECTION ACROSS SOUTHEAST GEORGIA. THERE REMAINS A LOW POTENTIAL FOR ISOLATED STORMS TO BRIEFLY PULSE TO SEVERE LEVELS...A RESULT OF THE COMBINED ENERGY FROM AN UPPER JET NOSING NORTHWARD FROM THE GULF AND THE AFOREMENTIONED UPPER DISTURBANCE. PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES REMAIN RATHER HIGH IN THE 1.75 TO 2 INCH RANGE...SUGGESTING THAT A LOCALIZED HEAVY RAINFALL THREAT REMAINS THROUGH THE AFTERNOON. STRENGTH AND COVERAGE OF CONVECTION WILL DIMINISH AFTER DARK WITH THE LOSS OF DAYTIME INSTABILITY AND HEATING. RAIN CHANCES DEPICTED IN THE FORECAST REFLECT THE SEABREEZE LIKELY PUSHING MUCH OF THE CONVECTION INLAND...WITH THE EXCEPTION OF MORE PERSISTENT WEAKENING ACTIVITY SOUTH OF INTERSTATE 16 IN GEORGIA. HAVE THEN REMOVED MENTION OF RAIN OVER LAND AREAS AFTER MIDNIGHT. AREAS THAT RECEIVE MEASURABLE RAINFALL THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING COULD SEE SOME PATCHY FOG EARLY SATURDAY MORNING. OTHERWISE...EXPECT ANOTHER WARM AND HUMID NIGHT...WITH LOW TEMPERATURES RANGING FROM THE LOWER 70S INLAND TO THE UPPER 70S AT THE COAST. && .SHORT TERM /6 AM SATURDAY MORNING THROUGH MONDAY/... SATURDAY...THE NORTHERN JET STREAM WILL STRENGTHEN WITHIN THE ENTRANCE SECTOR OF A BROAD TROUGH OVER THE GREAT LAKES THROUGH THE WEEKEND...WHICH WILL CAUSE THE TROUGH TO DIG AND SHIFT SLOWLY TOWARDS THE SOUTHEAST. SLIGHT RIDGING WILL OCCUR AHEAD OF THIS FEATURE AS THE JET STREAM AND ASSOCIATED DIGGING KEEP AN AREA OF LOW PRESSURE OVER THE WESTERN GULF. SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY WILL BE MORE ISOLATED IN NATURE WITH SFC WINDS BECOMING MORE WESTERLY ON THE DOWNWIND SIDE OF THE RIDGE. ACTIVITY WILL LIKELY BE LIMITED TO AREAS WERE STRONG SFC HEATING OCCURS ALONG OR AHEAD OF AN AFTERNOON SEABREEZE. ALTHOUGH COVERAGE WILL LIKELY BE LESS THAN PREVIOUS DAYS...LOCALLY EXCESSIVE RAINFALL WILL REMAIN POSSIBLE AS PWATS REMAIN AROUND 2 INCHES THROUGH THE WEEKEND. CHANCES OF PRECIP WILL LIKELY DIMINISH SATURDAY NIGHT WITH DAYTIME HEAT LOSS. AS RIDGING OCCURS CONDITIONS WILL BE FAVORABLE FOR HIGH TEMPS TO REACH AROUND 90 AND DEWPOINTS TO REMAIN IN THE LOW/MID 70S. OVERNIGHT LOWS WILL REMAIN AROUND 70. SUNDAY...SLIGHT RIDGING WILL GIVE WAY TO A BROAD DIGGING TROUGH AND ASSOCIATED COLD FRONT SUNDAY. COMPRESSIONAL HEATING AHEAD OF THE FRONT SUPPORTS HIGH TEMPS IN THE LOW 90S ALONG WITH SFC DEWPOINTS IN THE LOW TO MID 70S. SLIGHT ISENTROPIC LIFT ALONG WITH CLOUDS FROM EARLY CONVECTION MAY LIMIT TEMPS INTO THE UPPER 80S. LOCATIONS THAT DO EXPERIENCE STRONG SFC HEATING MAY APPROACH HEAT ADVISORY CRITERIA...105 F...ESPECIALLY DURING PEAK HEATING HOURS IN THE AFTERNOON. A PERIOD OF ENHANCED SHOWER/THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY APPEARS TO BE TAKING SHAPE SUNDAY AFTERNOON AS AN H5 SHORTWAVE SHIFTS FROM THE GULF TO THE SOUTHEAST WHILE A WEAKENING COLD FRONT ENTERS THE REGION FROM THE NORTH. A FEW STRONG THUNDERSTORMS MAY OCCUR SUNDAY AFTERNOON AS A MODERATE CAPE/LOW SHEAR ENVIRONMENT DEVELOPS OVER THE FORECAST REGION WHERE THE H5 SHORTWAVE AND WEAKENING COLD FRONT ARE EXPECTED TO INTERSECT. THE PRESENCE OF INCREASING LOW LVL WIND FIELDS AND AN AFTERNOON SEABREEZE WILL FURTHER ENHANCE UPLIFT OVER PORTIONS OF SOUTHEAST SOUTH CAROLINA AND SOUTHEAST GEORGIA. LOCATIONS OVER SOUTHEAST GEORGIA APPEAR TO BE AT HIGHER RISK FOR THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY GIVEN THE LOCATION OF THE H5 SHORTWAVE. SUB PAR 500 MB FLOW AND A WEAK UPPER LVL JET AT THE TIME OF THE EVENT HOWEVER...WILL LIKELY LIMIT THUNDERSTORMS TO A MORE PULSE TYPE EVENT...WITH WIND AND HEAVY RAIN BEING THE PRIMARY CONCERNS. A DOWNSLOPE WIND COMPONENT WILL THEN TAKE PLACE LATE SUNDAY...LIKELY ENDING ANY POTENTIAL SEVERE THREAT A FEW HOURS AFTER NIGHTFALL. OVERNIGHT LOWS SHOULD REMAIN AROUND 70. MONDAY...A WEAKENING COLD FRONT WILL LIKELY STALL JUST SOUTH OF THE REGION MONDAY. SEVERAL MODELS INDICATE A WEAK LOW DEVELOPING ALONG THE STALLED BOUNDARY AS UPPER LVL DIVERGENCE INCREASES FROM THE NORTH. THIS MAY SPAWN ADDITIONAL SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS MONDAY AFTERNOON OVER THE FORECAST AREA. MOST ACTIVITY SHOULD REMAIN OVER SOUTHEAST GEORGIA WHERE PWATS AROUND 1.5 INCHES AND 70 DEGREE DEWPOINTS REMAIN JUST NORTH OF THE STALLED BOUNDARY. ACTIVITY WILL LIKELY END AROUND SUNSET WITH DAYTIME HEAT LOSS. HIGH TEMPS SHOULD BE A FEW DEGREES COOLER IN THE UPPER 80S. OVERNIGHT LOWS WILL BE IN THE MID TO UPPER 60S. && .LONG TERM /MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY/... MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY...A SIGNIFICANT AIRMASS CHANGE IS NOT EXPECTED AS A STATIONARY BOUNDARY REMAINS JUST SOUTH OF THE REGION THROUGH MIDWEEK. THE THREAT FOR HEAVY RAIN HOWEVER...APPEARS LESS LIKELY AS PWATS DROP CONSIDERABLY TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY. HOWEVER...TEMPERATURES SHOULD REMAIN AROUND 90 THROUGH THE FORECAST PERIOD ALONG WITH 70 DEGREE SFC DEWPOINTS. THIS SCENARIO JUSTIFIES SLIGHT CHANCE TO CHANCE POPS TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY...ESPECIALLY DURING AFTERNOON HEATING HOURS. ACTIVITY SHOULD BE LESS DURING OVERNIGHT PERIODS. THURSDAY AND FRIDAY...A BRIEF PERIOD OF HIGH PRESSURE WILL QUICKLY BE REPLACED WITH ONSHORE FLOW AS LOW PRESSURE DEVELOPS OVER THE OHIO VALLEY. MOISTURE SHOULD BECOME AMPLE OVER THE SOUTHEAST BY EARLY THURSDAY...THUS PRODUCING HOT AND HUMID CONDITIONS THROUGH FRIDAY. TEMPS SHOULD BE ABOVE NORMAL...LOWER 90S...WITH SFC DEWPOINTS IN THE LOW TO MID 70S. A GENERAL SUMMERTIME PATTERN WILL LIKELY RETURN WITH SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY ALONG AFTERNOON SEABREEZES. && .AVIATION /19Z FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/... MAIN TAF CONCERN WILL BE THUNDERSTORM IMPACTS DURING THE NEXT 6 HOURS. AN UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE IS CURRENTLY PUSHING INTO SOUTHEAST GEORGIA FROM THE GULF OF MEXICO...EFFECTIVELY SPARKING SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS SOUTH OF THE SAVANNAH RIVER. HAVE MAINTAINED A TEMPO GROUP FOR +TSRA THROUGH 21Z AT KSAV. CONVECTION IS MORE ISOLATED TO THE NORTH...AS STORMS HAVE MAINLY BEEN THE RESULT OF THE INLAND SEABREEZE PROGRESSION. HAVE INCLUDED A BRIEF MENTION OF THUNDERSTORMS IN THE KCHS TAF FOR THE NEXT HOUR...FOLLOWED BY VICINITY THUNDER INTO THE EVENING. AMENDMENTS WILL BE LIKELY AS CONVECTIVE TRENDS BECOME MORE CLEAR. MODEL GUIDANCE IS IN SLIGHT DISAGREEMENT REGARDING CIGS AND VSBYS OVERNIGHT. WILL REFRAIN FROM MENTIONING ANY CB AFTER AROUND MIDNIGHT...AS THERE REMAINS SOME UNCERTAINTY REGARDING NOCTURNAL RAIN CHANCES. A REDUCTION IN VSBY IS POSSIBLE AT LOCATIONS WHERE RAINFALL OCCURS...BUT AT THIS POINT...WILL JUST INCLUDE MVFR VSBYS AT KSAV WHERE MORE SIGNIFICANT RAIN IS MORE LIKELY. EXTENDED AVIATION OUTLOOK...DIURNAL SHOWERS/TSTMS ARE EXPECTED EACH AFTERNOON AND EVENING IN THE VICINITY OF THE COASTAL TAF CORRIDOR...ESPECIALLY DURING TIMES WHEN AN AFTERNOON SEABREEZE PUSHES INLAND. AT LEAST SLIGHT CHANCES OF MVFR OR LOWER CIGS/VSBYS POSSIBLE A FEW HOURS AROUND DAWN EACH DAY THROUGH MID WEEK. && .MARINE... ATLANTIC HIGH PRESSURE WILL REMAIN THE DOMINANT FEATURE THROUGH THE SHORT TERM PERIOD. SOUTHERLY WINDS UP TO 15 KT CURRENTLY PREVAIL ACROSS THE COASTAL WATERS THIS AFTERNOON. FOLLOWING A TYPICAL DIURNAL PATTERN...WINDS WILL VEER MORE SOUTHWEST TONIGHT...WHILE SPEEDS REMAIN IN THE 10 TO 15 KT RANGE. SEAS WILL BE 3 FT OR LESS. SATURDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY...WINDS AND SEAS ARE EXPECTED TO REMAIN BELOW SCA CRITERIA THROUGH WEDNESDAY. SEABREEZE CIRCULATIONS AND NOCTURNAL WIND SURGES MAY BRIEFLY INCREASE SFC WINDS BETWEEN 15 TO 20 KNOTS...BUT SOUTH/SOUTHWEST WINDS BETWEEN 10 TO 15 KNOTS SHOULD PREVAIL OVER ALL WATERS THROUGH THE WEEKEND. WINDS AND SEAS MAY APPROACH SCA CRITERIA LATE SUNDAY INTO MONDAY MORNING AHEAD OF AN APPROACHING COLD FRONT. WINDS ARE EXPECTED TO INCREASE TO AROUND 20 KNOTS AND SEAS WILL LIKELY BUILD TO 4 TO 5 FEET...MAINLY OVER THE SOUTH CAROLINA WATERS. HIGHEST SEAS ARE EXPECTED TO REMAIN BEYOND 20 NM FROM THE COAST. SOUTHWEST WINDS WILL QUICKLY BEGIN TO SUBSIDE AS THE FRONT STALLS JUST SOUTH OF THE COASTAL WATERS LATE MONDAY. THE POSITION OF THE STALLED BOUNDARY AND ASSOCIATED WINDS/SEAS REMAIN HIGHLY UNCERTAIN THROUGH MIDWEEK. WINDS HOWEVER...ARE EXPECTED TO BECOME SOUTH/SOUTHEASTERLY AND REMAIN WELL BELOW SCA CRITERIA AS ONSHORE FLOW DEVELOPS BY LATE WEEK. && .CHS WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... GA...NONE. SC...NONE.
