The episode as NWS CHS wrote it up.
Moderate instability and favorable shear profiles supported widespread wind damage as an upper level disturbance and associated severe QLCS moved across southeast Georgia.

NWS Charleston, SC wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Apr 19, 12:47 PM EST, 1 hour 31 minutes earlier.
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHARLESTON SC 147 PM EDT SUN APR 19 2015 .SYNOPSIS... A WARM FRONT WILL LIFT INTO THE AREA TODAY...ACCOMPANIED BY AN UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE. A COLD FRONT WILL APPROACH THE AREA MONDAY... MOVING OFFSHORE MONDAY NIGHT. HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD IN TUESDAY THROUGH THURSDAY. A WEAK COLD FRONT WILL DROP THROUGH THE AREA THURSDAY NIGHT...THEN A STORM SYSTEM WILL AFFECT THE REGION NEXT WEEKEND. && .NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/... EARLY THIS AFTERNOON...QUICK UPDATE TO INCLUDE TORNADO WATCH 79 WHICH IS IN EFFECT THROUGH 8 PM. NO CHANGE TO PREVIOUS FORECAST THINKING AND PREVIOUS DISCUSSION FOLLOWS BELOW. LATE THIS MORNING...THE WARM FRONT PRECIPITATION THAT HAD BLOSSOMED EARLIER THIS MORNING ACROSS SOUTHEAST GEORGIA HAS DISSIPATED PRETTY RAPIDLY AS IT LIFTS TO THE NORTHEAST. AS SUCH...THE REST OF THE MORNING WILL BE RELATIVELY QUIET AHEAD OF THE MAIN FORECAST PROBLEM WHICH IS THE LARGE AREA OF CONVECTION CURRENTLY IMPACTING MUCH OF ALABAMA/GEORGIA/FLORIDA. OVERALL...THERE WILL BE LIMITED PRECIPITATION COVERAGE OUT AHEAD OF THE APPROACHING LINE OTHER THAN SCATTERED DISCRETE SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS THAT SHOULD DEVELOP RIGHT AS THE LINE PUSHES INTO THE WESTERN ZONES. CURRENTLY...THE RECENT RUNS OF THE HRRR SEEMS TO HAVE AN EXCELLENT HANDLE ON THE POSITION OF THE CONVECTION AND ITS AFTERNOON PROGRESSION SEEMS QUITE REASONABLE. REGARDING TIMING...THE HRRR IS RUNNING ABOUT AN HOUR OR TWO ON THE SLOW SIDE SO WE THINK THE LINE OF STORMS WILL BEGIN IMPACTING THE WESTERN ZONES IN THE 1-2PM WINDOW. THIS WOULD PUT THE LINE INTO THE SAVANNAH METRO AREA 3-5PM AND THEN THE CHARLESTON REGION BETWEEN 6-8PM. THE POTENTIAL FOR SEVERE WEATHER APPEARS TO BE INCREASING. UPSTREAM OFFICES HAVE BEEN ISSUING A MIXTURE OF SEVERE/TORNADO WARNINGS THIS MORNING WITH A NUMBER OF WIND DAMAGE REPORTS. BASED ON ITS LOCATION RELATIVE TO THE LINE AT 12Z...THE TAE MORNING SOUNDING IS LIKELY THE BEST SAMPLING OF THE APPROACHING NEAR STORM ENVIRONMENT. AS SUCH...WE EXPECT A STRONGLY SHEARED ENVIRONMENT WITH A NICE VEERING OF THE LOW LEVEL PROFILE AND CAPE VALUES INCREASING INTO THE 1500-2000 J/KG RANGE. IN FACT...THE TAE SOUNDING HAS A DISTINCT ELEVATED MIXED LAYER THAT ACTUALLY SHOWS UP WELL WHEN LOOKING AT HRRR SOUNDINGS LATER THIS AFTERNOON. ONE OF THE MORE TROUBLING ASPECTS IS THE POTENTIAL FOR A WINDOW OF CLEARING NOTED ON VISIBLE SATELLITE IMAGERY. AS THIS CLEARING HAS MOVED ACROSS SOUTH GEORGIA TEMPERATURES HAVE RISEN INTO THE UPPER 70S AND EVEN TO 80 WITHIN JUST AN HOUR. GIVEN LOW LEVEL THICKNESS VALUES AS THEY ARE...EVEN A BRIEF PERIOD OF SUN WILL LEAD TO A RAPID WARM UP AND INCREASE THE SURFACE DESTABILIZATION POTENTIAL. SO USING THE HRRR AND ITS SOUNDINGS AS THE BEST REPRESENTATION OF THE AFTERNOON NEAR STORM ENVIRONMENT...IT APPEARS WE ARE LOOKING AT CAPE VALUES AS HIGH AS 2500 J/KG...0-3 KM SHEAR OF 30-35 KT...AND SRH VALUES BETWEEN 150-250 THANKS TO THE SOUTHEAST BACKED LOW LEVEL FLOW. SUCH AN ENVIRONMENT WILL LIKELY FAVOR A CONVECTIVE MODE OF LINEAR SEGMENTS WITH EMBEDDED SUPERCELL ELEMENTS AND EVEN THE POTENTIAL FOR A DISCRETE SUPERCELL OR TWO. DAMAGING WIND GUSTS CONTINUES TO BE THE PRIMARY SEVERE WEATHER THREAT...BUT THE SHEAR AND LOW LEVEL VEERING WILL ALSO PROVIDE A TORNADO THREAT AS WELL. MUCH WILL BE DETERMINED BY HOW MUCH SUN CAN BREAK THROUGH AND TEMPERATURES WARM. ONE OTHER POTENTIAL THING TO WATCH IS THAT THE CURRENT SOUTHEAST WINDS COULD ADVECT IN A SLIGHTLY MORE STABLE MARINE ENVIRONMENT. HOWEVER...GIVEN THAT WE ARE OUT OF THE COOLEST SHELF WATER SEASON THIS IMPACT IS EXPECTED TO BE LIMITED. && .SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 AM MONDAY/... TONIGHT...THE SHORTWAVE WILL PUSH OFF THE COAST AND ELEVATED POPS DURING THE EVENING HOURS SHOULD DECREASE BELOW 15 PERCENT AS SOMEWHAT DRIER AIR AND TEMPORARY SUBSIDENCE DEVELOP OVERNIGHT INTO EARLY MONDAY. ANOTHER IN A SERIES OF VERY MILD OVERNIGHTS WITH TEMPS ONLY FALLING TO THE MID 60S ONCE AGAIN. THE LONGWAVE TROUGH WILL PERSIST TO OUR WEST ON MONDAY WHILE A SERIES OF POTENT SHORTWAVES LIFT NORTHEAST THROUGH THE LOCAL FORECAST AREA. A 145 KT SOUTHERN STREAM JET STREAK IS PROGGED TO SLIDE ALONG THE CENTRAL GULF COAST REGION DURING THE DAY...SPREADING A REGION OF ENHANCED UPPER LEVEL DIVERGENCE INTO SC/GA IN THE AFTERNOON. MODEL TIME SECTIONS SHOW CONSIDERABLE DRYING ABOVE 850 MB EARLY IN THE PERIOD...WITH PWATS DROPPING BELOW 1.25" BY MONDAY AFTERNOON. THE MAIN COLD FRONT WILL SLOWLY MOVE EAST DURING THE DAY...CROSSING THE REGION AT SOME POINT MONDAY EVENING. GIVEN THE DRY AIR ALOFT... CONSIDERABLE BREAKS IN THE CLOUDS AND COMPRESSIONAL HEATING AHEAD OF THE FRONT SHOULD HELP PUSH TEMPS INTO THE MID/UPPER 80S. THE BIG QUESTION ON MONDAY IS HOW MUCH CONVECTIVE COVERAGE DEVELOPS. THE DEEP DRY LAYER ABOVE THE SURFACE MAY LIMIT THE INITIAL CONVECTIVE DEVELOPMENT. HOWEVER...MODELS ARE HINTING AT AN UPSTREAM CONVECTIVE CLUSTER MOVING INTO WESTERN AREAS LATER IN THE AFTERNOON. THERMODYNAMICS AND KINEMATICS ARE QUITE IMPRESSIVE ON MONDAY. 40-50 KT OF 0-6 KM BULK SHEAR...CAPES OF 1500-2000 J/KG AND DOWNDRAFT CAPES 1000 TO 1500 J/KG. A FAIRLY ROBUST SEA BREEZE IS EXPECTED TO DEVELOP IN THE AFTERNOON GIVEN SUCH WARM TEMPS INLAND AND PREVAILING SOUTHERLY FLOW. THIS MAY COME INTO PLAY LATE IN THE DAY IF UPSTREAM CONVECTION MOVES IN FROM THE WEST. GIVEN THE SOMEWHAT DRIER TREND IN THE LATEST MODELS...WE MINIMIZED POPS MONDAY MORNING WITH VALUES INCREASING TO 30-40% IN THE AFTERNOON...ESPECIALLY ACROSS INTERIOR SC/GA. AS THE ACTIVITY AHEAD OF THE FRONT MOVES THROUGH OUR AREA IT SHOULD BE GRADUALLY WEAKENING. THEN SOME ADDITIONAL ACTIVITY...LIKELY WEAKER...COULD ACCOMPANY THE ACTUAL FRONT LATER IN THE EVENING OR OVERNIGHT. WE PLAN TO MAINTAIN SEVERE WEATHER POTENTIAL IN THE HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK. HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD IN BEHIND THE FRONT WITH DRY WEATHER AND SEASONABLE TEMPERATURES TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY. HIGHS WILL CLIMB TO NEAR 80 BOTH DAYS WITH OVERNIGHT LOWS IN THE MID 50S. && .LONG TERM /MONDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/... A ZONAL PATTERN WILL EXIST MUCH OF THE PERIOD. A WEAK BACK DOOR COLD FRONT DROPS THROUGH THE AREA THURSDAY NIGHT. THE FRONT WILL STALL TO THE SOUTH BEFORE LIFTING BACK NORTH AS A WARM FRONT FRIDAY NIGHT AND SATURDAY. A PRONOUNCED SHORTWAVE EMBEDDED IN THE QUASI-ZONAL FLOW WILL MOVE THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT ACCOMPANIED BY A COLD FRONT. PRECIPITATION POSSIBLE STARTING FRIDAY NIGHT AND CONTINUING INTO SATURDAY NIGHT. TEMPS WILL BE MODERATED BY INCREASING CLOUD COVER AND WEAK COLD ADVECTION. && .AVIATION /18Z SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/... MVFR CEILINGS HAVE RETURNED TO BOTH TERMINALS EARLY THIS AFTERNOON AND THE MAIN FORECAST ISSUE THROUGH THE EVENING WILL BE TIMING THUNDERSTORMS INTO THE FORECAST. BASED ON CURRENT RADAR TRENDS AND HI-RES MODEL GUIDANCE...IT LOOKS LIKE THUNDER WILL REACH KSAV AND IMPACT THE TERMINAL BETWEEN 20Z-22Z. HAVE GONE WITH IFR CONDITIONS IN THUNDER WITH GUSTY WINDS TO ALMOST 40 KT BASED ON SOME UPSTREAM OBSERVATIONS. AT KCHS...THUNDER WILL ARRIVE LATER AND IT IS UNCLEAR IF IT WILL BE AS STRONG AS IT IS EXPECTED AT KSAV. HAVE GONE WITH 22Z-00Z AT KCHS WITH IFR CONDITIONS AND SLIGHTLY LESSER WIND GUSTS. ONCE THE CONVECTION MOVE EAST OF THE TERMINALS THERE WILL BE A BIT OF A LULL UNTIL IFR CEILINGS ARE PROGGED TO RETURN AFTER MIDNIGHT. BOTH SITES GET PREVAILING IFR CEILINGS THROUGH THE LATE NIGHT...SCATTERING OUT MONDAY MORNING. EXTENDED AVIATION OUTLOOK...SCATTERED SHOWERS/TSTMS EXPECTED AT BOTH TERMINALS MONDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING WITH BRIEF MVFR CEILING/VSBY RESTRICTIONS POSSIBLE. OTHERWISE VFR CONDITIONS EXPECTED. && .MARINE... A WARM FRONT WILL LIFT THROUGH THE WATERS TODAY...FOLLOWED BY INTENSIFYING SOUTH/SOUTHWEST FLOW. LIGHT AND VARIABLE WINDS EARLY THIS MORNING WILL BECOME SE PRIOR TO THE WARM FRONT WHICH WILL SHIFT FLOW SW TO S TONIGHT. WHILE SPEEDS INCREASE TONIGHT AND SEAS SLOWLY BUILD...THE AVERAGE SPEED COULD REACH ONLY 15 KT BY DAYBREAK OVER NEAR SHORE WATERS WITH SEAS 3 TO 4 FT. THE POTENTIAL EXISTS FOR THUNDERSTORMS WITH STRONG WINDS OVER THE WATERS THIS AFTERNOON EVENING. VERY HEAVY DOWNPOURS REDUCING LOCAL VSBYS BELOW 1 NM ARE ALSO POSSIBLE WITH THE STRONGEST STORMS MOVING OFFSHORE LATE IN THE DAY AND EARLY THIS EVENING. A PREVAILING SSW FLOW WILL EXIST MONDAY MORNING AS A COLD FRONT APPROACHES FROM THE WEST. THE GRADIENT WILL STRENGTHEN DURING THE AFTERNOON...ESPECIALLY ALONG THE COAST WHERE A STRONG SEA BREEZE DEVELOPS DUE TO MID/UPPER 80S TEMPS OVER LAND. THE LATEST GFS AND NAM MOS AT FOLLY BEACH SC SHOW SFC WINDS EXCEEDING 20 KT LATE MONDAY AFTERNOON WHEN THE SEA BREEZE IS STRONGEST. THIS SEEMS FAIRLY REASONABLE GIVEN THE PATTERN AND THE WARMER INLAND TEMPS EXPECTED. A SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY MAY EVENTUALLY BE REQUIRED FOR CHARLESTON HARBOR MONDAY AFTERNOON FOR WINDS/GUSTS IN THE 20-30 KT RANGE. A BRIEF PERIOD OF SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY CONDITIONS MAY DEVELOP OVER OFFSHORE WATERS MONDAY NIGHT AS THE COLD FRONT MOVES THROUGH AND WINDS GUST TO 25 KT WITH SOME 6 FT SEAS ALSO POSSIBLE. TUESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY LOOK FAIRLY QUIET OVER THE WATERS AS HIGH PRESSURE PREVAILS. && .TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING... THERE IS A CHANCE THAT THE HIGH TIDE COULD REACH OR SLIGHTLY EXCEED 7.0 FT MLLW ON CHARLESTON HARBOR THIS EVENING. && .CHS WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... GA...NONE. SC...NONE. MARINE...NONE. && NEAR TERM...BSH SHORT TERM...JRL LONG TERM...JRL AVIATION...BSH MARINE...JRL TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING...
