AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHARLESTON SC
143 PM EDT MON MAY 14 2012

.SYNOPSIS...
A BROAD AND WEAK AREA OF LOW PRESSURE AND A TRAILING COLD FRONT WILL
MOVE VERY SLOWLY TOWARD THE SOUTHEAST COAST THROUGH THE MIDDLE OF THE
WEEK...BEFORE SHIFTING INTO THE WESTERN ATLANTIC THURSDAY. HIGH PRESSURE
WILL THEN BUILD IN FROM THE NORTH FRIDAY THROUGH MONDAY. LOW PRESSURE
COULD FORM FAR OFFSHORE IN THE WESTERN ATLANTIC IN ASSOCIATION WITH
A CLOSED LOW ALOFT SATURDAY THROUGH MONDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
EARLY MONDAY AFTERNOON...MULTICELL THUNDERSTORMS CONTINUED TO
DEVELOP AND ADVANCE TOWARD THE E/NE ACROSS THE REGION. CONVECTION
COVERAGE WAS GENERALLY ENHANCED ALONG A BROAD AXIS OF LOW LEVEL
CONVERGENCE EXTENDING FROM THE NE GULF OF MEXICO THROUGH THE
FORECAST AREA...WITHIN A DEEP LAYER CYCLONIC FLOW REGIME FEATURING
WEAK SHORTWAVES/UPPER DIFFLUENCE AS DEPICTED BY WATER VAPOR
IMAGERY. WITHIN THIS SYNOPTIC SCALE REGIME...THUNDERSTORM
CLUSTERS/BANDS WERE FOCUSED ALONG NUMEROUS MESOSCALE BOUNDARIES.
0-6 KM SHEAR AROUND 25 KT AND SBCAPES AS HIGH AS 1500-2500 J/KG
WILL CONTINUE TO SUPPORT AN ACTIVE CONVECTION REGIME FEATURING
MULTICELL THUNDERSTORMS THIS AFTERNOON.

MID LEVEL DRY AIR DEPICTED BY 12Z UPPER AIR OBSERVATIONS/ONGOING
WATER VAPOR IMAGERY AND MESOSCALE THUNDERSTORM/BOUNDARY
INTERACTIONS COULD BRIEFLY ENHANCE UPDRAFTS...SUPPORTING ISOLATED
PULSE SEVERE EVENTS FEATURING DAMAGING MICROBURSTS AND EVEN LARGE
HAIL. HOWEVER...WEAK MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES LESS THAN 6 C/KM AND
COVERAGE OF CLOUDS/PRECIPITATION WILL LIMIT THE OVERALL THREAT FOR
SEVERE WEATHER. ALSO...PWATS AROUND 1.5 INCH COULD SUPPORT VERY
HEAVY RAINFALL RATES. HOWEVER...THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE TO
MOVE STEADILY TOWARD THE NORTHEAST...LIMITING RESIDENCE TIME OF
HEAVY RAINFALL...AND ANY LOCALIZED FLOODING THREAT SHOULD REMAIN
LIMITED TO ECHO TRAINING SITUATIONS...IF ANY OCCUR.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH THURSDAY/...
TONIGHT...VERY LITTLE CHANGE TO THE OVERALL PATTERN FROM THE
AFTERNOON WITH THE LOSS OF DAYTIME HEATING...COVERAGE OF
SHOWERS/STORMS WILL DIMINISH AND SHOULD BECOME INCREASINGLY CONFINED
OFFSHORE. THE WEAK SURFACE LOW WILL REMAIN TO THE WEST WITH SW FLOW
IN THE LOWER LEVELS...AND WITH LINGERING MOISTURE AT LEAST ISOLATED
SHOWERS COULD CONTINUE TO DEVELOP THROUGH THE NIGHT. ANOTHER WARM
NIGHT IS ON TAP WITH LOWS ONLY REACHING THE MID TO UPPER 60S.

TUESDAY...SHORT WAVES WILL DROP INTO THE TROUGH FOUND ALIGNED NE TO
SW FROM TENNESSEE TO TEXAS...KEEPING A DEEP SW FLOW AND A FEED OF
SUB TROPICAL MOISTURE ACROSS THE SE STATES AND THE LOCAL FORECAST
AREA. AT THE SAME TIME THERE IS THE BROAD AND WEAK LOW PRESSURE
SYSTEM AND ITS ASSOCIATED COLD FRONT FOUND STRUGGLING TO MOVE EAST
INTO THE SE PART OF THE COUNTRY. WITH WEAK NVA TO PREVAIL DURING THE
FIRST PART OF THE DAY....MUCH OF OUR RAIN CHANCES WILL COME DURING
THE AFTERNOON. MUCH OF THE DRIVING FORCE FOR CONVECTION WILL COME IN
THE FORM OF DAYTIME HEATING...THE SEA BREEZE...AND ANY BOUNDARIES
THAT FORM UPSTREAM FROM THE NEARLY STATIONARY COLD FRONT FOUND JUST
THIS SIDE OF THE APPALACHIANS. PWATS ARE NEAR THE 75TH PERCENTILE FOR
MID MAY...SO CHANCE POPS ARE IN ORDER FOR MOST LOCATIONS THE SECOND
HALF OF THE DAY. ALTHOUGH MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES ARE POOR...OUR LOW
LEVEL LAPSE RATES ARE MORE FAVORABLE. SBCAPE IN AS HIGH AS 1500-2000
J/KG AND LIFTED INDICES ARE NEAR -4 OR -5. BUT WITH DRY MID LEVEL
AIR NOTED ON SOUNDINGS AND CROSS-SECTIONS...THE RISK FOR GUSTY WINDS
CAN OCCUR IN A FEW OF THE STRONGER STORMS. BUT THIS RISK I NOT
SUFFICIENT ENOUGH TO INCLUDE IN THE HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK. WE
DIDN/T GO AS HIGH AS THE LOW LEVEL THICKNESS FORECAST...BUT SOME
COMPRESSIONAL HEATING AHEAD OF THE UPSTREAM COLD FRONT WILL YIELD
MAX TEMPS IN THE MID AND UPPER 80S AWAY FROM THE SHORELINE.

WEDNESDAY...THE POSITIVELY TILTED TROUGH ALOFT WILL MOVE INTO CLOSER
PROXIMITY TO THE LOCAL AREA...WHILE ITS ASSOCIATED COLD FRONT MAKES
FURTHER RELUCTANT HEADWAY TOWARDS US. ACTUALLY PART OF THE FRONT
WILL MAKE IT TO THE COAST DURING THE AFTERNOON...BUT THAT/S NORTH OF
THE LOCAL AREA. THE PART OF THE FRONT WE/RE MOST CONCERNED WITH WITH
BE HESITANT IN MOVING IN...AS IT BECOMES PARALLEL TO THE FLOW ALOFT.
STILL...WITH THE FRONT IN CLOSER PROXIMITY AND CONSIDERABLE MOISTURE
YET AGAIN...WE/RE LOOKING AT A BETTER CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND
T-STORMS. THERE IS THE LEFT FRONT QUAD OF THE UPPER LEVEL JET TO
PROVIDE FORCING FOR ASCENT...AS UPPER DIVERGENCE AND DIFLUENCE
OCCURS. THIS ALONG WITH SOME COLDER MID LEVEL AIR...AS 500 TEMPS
DROP TO -13 OR -14C...WE MIGHT SEE SOME STRONG OR ISOLATED SEVERE
T-STORMS. STRONG WINDS AND MAYBE SOME HAIL WITH WET BULB NEAR 9K
FEET CAN OCCUR. HOWEVER...PROBABILITIES AND AREAL COVERAGE DOES NOT
JUSTIFY INCLUDING IN THE HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK. TEMPS WILL AGAIN
REACH ABOVE SEASONAL NORMS.

THURSDAY...IT LOOKS LIKE THE MID LEVEL TROUGH AND SURFACE COLD FRONT
FINALLY MAKES IT INTO THE ATLANTIC. WHILE SOME DRIER AIR DOES WORK
IN FROM THE NW...THE CLOSE PROXIMITY TO THE DIFFUSE FRONT AND THE
SEA BREEZE SHOULD STILL PROVIDE US WITH SLIGHT CHANCE AND CHANCE
POPS. HOWEVER...ADJUSTMENTS TO THE RAIN CHANCES MIGHT BE NEEDED
IN LATER FORECASTS...PENDING THE TIMING OF THIS TRANSITION. LOWER
AND MIDDLE 80S WILL BE COMMON.

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY/...
THE FORECAST FOR THE END OF THIS WEEK INTO THE EARLY PART OF NEXT
WEEK IS STILL SOMEWHAT UP IN THE AIR...BUT CONSENSUS SUGGESTS THAT
WE MIGHT GET BY WITH A FEW DAYS WITHOUT RAINFALL.

THE TROUGH IN THE ATLANTIC WILL CLOSE OFF DURING FRIDAY...CAUSING A
SURFACE LOW TO FORM SOMEWHERE OUT NEAR 30 NORTH AND 70 WEST. THAT
LOW LOOKS TO MEANDER WELL OFFSHORE DURING AT LEAST THE
WEEKEND...BEFORE TURNING NORTH AT SOME POINT EARLY NEXT WEEK AS THE
CLOSED LOW OPENS AND LIFTS OUT. AT THE SAME TIME...STRONG HIGH
PRESSURE WILL BUILD INTO THE AREA FROM THE NORTH. LARGE SCALE
SUBSIDENCE LOOKS TO TAKE HOLD...WHILE THE BEST LOW LEVEL CONVERGENCE
REMAINS SOUTH OF THE AREA. THIS SHOULD KEEP THE AREA GENERALLY FREE
OF RAINFALL...ALTHOUGH SOME COASTAL SHOWERS COULD CERTAINLY OCCUR.

ADDITIONALLY....A TIGHTER PRESSURE GRADIENT WILL FORM AND BREEZY
CONDITIONS WILL OCCUR EACH DAY FRIDAY THROUGH SUNDAY...ESPECIALLY
OVER OUR COASTAL COUNTIES. THE DRIER AIR MASS WILL ALLOW FOR NIGHT
TIME LOWS TO FALL INTO THE UPPER 50S ACROSS INTERIORS SECTIONS EACH
NIGHT...WHILE AMPLE INSOLATION WILL BOOST DAYTIME HIGHS INTO THE
LOWER 80S EACH AFTERNOON AWAY FROM THE COAST.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
EARLY AFTERNOON RADAR TRENDS SUGGEST THAT THUNDERSTORMS WILL
IMPACT KCHS AND KSAV THIS AFTERNOON. WITHIN 18Z TAFS...INITIALLY
INDICATED GUSTY WINDS BUT VFR CONDITIONS WITHIN
THUNDERSTORMS...BUT EXPECT AMENDMENTS TO ADDRESS NEAR TERM
CONVECTIVE TRENDS. OTHERWISE...VFR EXPECTED OUTSIDE ANY
SHOWERS/TSTMS THIS AFTERNOON. TONIGHT...VFR THIS EVENING. ODDS
FAVOR VFR THROUGH THE NIGHT BUT BRIEF MVFR OR LOWER CONDITIONS
COULD OCCUR AT EITHER TERMINAL IF HEAVY RAIN OCCURS THIS
AFTERNOON.

THUNDERSTORMS SHOULD REDEVELOP TUESDAY...ESPECIALLY IN THE
AFTERNOON...BUT PROB30 IS NOT YET JUSTIFIED PRIOR TO 18Z.

EXTENDED AVIATION OUTLOOK...PERIODIC MVFR OR LOWER CONDITIONS WILL BE
POSSIBLE TUESDAY PM THROUGH WEDNESDAY OR PERHAPS THURSDAY DUE TO
LOW LEVEL MOISTURE AND SCATTERED SHRA/TSRA. VFR CONDITIONS WILL
RETURN BY FRIDAY.

&&

.MARINE...
THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT...AS THE WEAK SURFACE LOW TO THE WEST
DRAWS SLIGHTLY CLOSER...S/SE WINDS WILL PREVAIL...ENHANCED BY THE
SEA BREEZE THIS AFTERNOON. THEN LATE TONIGHT THE FLOW WILL VEER
TOWARD THE SOUTHWEST. ASIDE FROM GUSTS AS HIGH AS 20 KT ESPECIALLY
ON CHS HARBOR THIS AFTERNOON...WINDS ARE EXPECTED TO REMAIN AT OR
BELOW 15 KTS THROUGH TONIGHT. SEA OF 2-4 FEET WITHIN NEARSHORE
WATERS AND AS HIGH AS 5 FT BEYOND 20 NM SHOULD PREVAIL.

ALTHOUGH PERIODIC SHOWERS AND T-STORMS WILL IMPACT THE COASTAL
WATERS TUESDAY THROUGH THURSDAY...THE GENERAL WIND AND WAVE
CONDITIONS WILL REMAIN WELL BELOW ANY SCA LEVELS. THAT COULD CHANGE
LATE IN THE WEEK...WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR A DECENT PINCHING OF THE
PRESSURE GRADIENT TO OCCUR. STRONG HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD OUT OF
THE NE STATES THURSDAY NIGHT INTO THE WEEKEND...WHILE LOW PRESSURE
FORMS FAR OFF THE SE COAST. THE RESULTING PRESSURE DIFFERENCE
BETWEEN THESE TWO FEATURES WILL BE LARGE ENOUGH TO CAUSE WINDS AND
SEAS TO LIKELY REACH HIGH ENOUGH WHERE SCA/S WILL BE REQUIRED LATER
THIS WEEK.
