Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Columbia SC 210 PM EST Sat Feb 8 2025
SYNOPSIS
Well above normal temperatures this weekend with isolated rain chances Sunday afternoon and evening. Cooler conditions set up next week behind a front with continuing rain chances as a series of weak disturbances and fronts move through the region.
NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/
Key Message(s):
- Persistent low level moisture lingers ahead of an approaching front.
Well above typical low level moisture (surface dew points in the mid 60's) for early February remains in place across the region with persistent southwesterly warm, moist advection. A blanket of stratus continues as of 1pm and will be slow to erode through the early afternoon, before becoming more scattered.
Consequently, temps have not climbed quite as fast as guidance initially showed, so near or exceeding record high temps looks a bit less likely as of now. But temps should still climb into the low-mid 70's by late this afternoon. The pressure gradient will steadily strengthen into Sunday morning as a front pushes down in the Appalachians and eventually through our area Sunday.
Winds will therefore strengthen overnight tonight, with some sustained winds 10-15 mph and gusts over 20 mph likely; not quite Lake Wind criteria, since the gust factor due to diurnal timing will be low and the lakes themselves are quite cool and should prevent mixing. While any showers associated with this front should push through after 10z, the line will steadily weaken as flow turns more parallel to the front and there is a complete of lack instability overnight.
SHORT TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT/
Key message(s):
- Mild for one more day Sunday.
- Significant cooldown for Monday.
Sunday and Sunday Night: Cold front should be just west of the forecast area early in the day, although the colder air will be lagging a ways behind the surface front. Area starts off in the warm sector, with some clouds around. There should be a narrow band of showers moving through the western cwa to start off the day, with limited coverage as it moves eastward into the Midlands through 15z. Would not be surprised to see the activity dissipate by early afternoon before possibly redeveloping across the eastern Midlands later in the afternoon. Qpf amounts remaining light. Temperatures are trending slightly cooler than the record highs we have been mentioning, mainly due to the timing of the front and some slightly cooler air trying to making it in around peak heating over the northern and central Midlands. Best chance for record highs would be over the CSRA.
Still should be a nice day temperature wise across the entire forecast area. The stronger push of colder air will occur Sunday night as high pressure north of the area brings a surge of colder temperatures on northerly winds through the night. Lows in the middle 40s north, to the middle 50s south. Rain chances still somewhat scattered through the night, lowering towards morning.
Monday and Monday Night: The surge of colder air continues through the day Monday, and many areas across the northern and central Midlands will see only a slow rise in temperatures through the day. CSRA may see a better recovery of temperatures into the afternoon. Rain chances appear limited through the day Monday. Another re-enforcing surge of cold air moves in Monday night, along with a shortwave aloft moving through. Temperatures over the Pee Dee will reach the middle 30s, but the precip late Monday night will remain all rain due to a nose of warmer air aloft. Central Midlands fall to around 40, while the CSRA will be in the low to middle 40s.
LONG TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/
Key Message(s):
- Unsettled weather expected during the mid-week period.
Confidence has increased in precipitation chances with lower confidence in the temperature forecast.
- A cold front should move through the region on Thursday resulting in a brief break in the active weather to close out the work week.
Cold air remains through Wednesday, with a series of cold front and rainfall re-enforcing the cold pool. There continues to be a threat for periods of heavy rainfall through Wednesday, with WPC having the western areas of the cwa close to a Marginal Risk of Excessive rainfall each day. While much of this region is still dealing with dry soils, and the rain will be welcome, runoff on dry soils could cause some minor flooding issues. The temperature forecast remains uncertain with a large spread in the box and whiskers plots each day through Wednesday.
Thursday will see yet another cold front marching towards the region from the west. This one will have the potential to clear out some of the rainfall and push it off to the east once it move through by Thursday night. With a slight return of warm advection through the day, temperatures may see a rebound back into the 60s for most areas, with the eastern cwa possible getting into the lower 70s. In addition, ahead of the front Thursday we will keep the mention of showers, and even the potential for some thunderstorms, along the front. Behind the front, some drying should occur Thursday night into Friday, along with a return again of some slightly cooler temperatures.
Another surge of moisture comes up from the southwest on Saturday ahead of a weekend system.
AVIATION /19Z SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/
Lingering MVFR cigs into the afternoon, with additional restrictions likely overnight into Sunday morning.
Low level moisture continues the broad stratus deck over much of eastern GA and central SC as of 18z. MVFR cigs will likely continue through mid-afternoon before this deck finally erodes and lifts to scattered VFR. Southwest winds at all sites will steadily strengthen this afternoon and overnight ahead of an approaching cold front; sustained 10-12 knots with gusts to 20 knots likely overnight into Sunday. Winds around 2k feet will be quite strong, 40-50 knots, but surface flow should remain strong enough through the period to prevent a LLWS mention in the TAF's, but it will be close to TAF criteria early Sunday. A few showers are possible early Sunday morning as well, mainly at AGS and DNL so included a prob30 for showers at those TAF sites. Just ahead of and along the front, MVFR- IFR cigs are likely and these will continue later into Sunday morning.
EXTENDED AVIATION OUTLOOK...There will be multiple fronts which work into the region in the extended continuing to support rain chances and potential restrictions.
