SATELLITE ANALYSIS AND TRENDS...THE CHARLESTON METRO AREA APPEARS TO
BE THE FOCUS OF INCREASING WARM-TOP CONVECTIVE SHOWERS OVER THE NEXT
COUPLE HOURS.  LATEST VISIBLE IMAGERY SHOWS A WEAK AND SLOW-MOVING OUTFLOW
PUSHING EASTWARD TOWARD THE LINE OF NORTHWARD MOVING THUNDERSHOWERS THAT
ARE LINED UP INTO CHARLESTON AND EVENTUALLY SOUTHERN BERKELEY COUNTY.
WATER VAPOR IMAGERY SHOWS A MOIST MID TO LOWER LEVEL CONFLUENCE AND THE
SOUNDER PW LOOP SHOWS INCREASING PW VALUES PUSHING 2.00".  WITH THESE
FACTORS AND CURRENT PRESENTATION ON IR IMAGERY, A SUGGESTION OF .6"
TO 1.0" PER HALF-HOUR RAIN RATES WILL BE LIKELY MOVING ACROSS THE URBAN
AND COASTAL AREA SHORTLY.
