Area forecast discussion, Aug 8, 3:05 PM EDT, 12 hours 5 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED FOR AVIATION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PEACHTREE CITY GA 305 PM EDT WED AUG 8 2007 .SHORT TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY/... SURFACE TROUGH OVER CENTRAL GA WILL CAUSE ONLY ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS INTO THE EVENING. OTHERWISE STRONG HIGH PRESSURE ALOFT CONTINUES OVER THE SOUTHERN STATES THROUGH THURSDAY...BUT DRIFTING WEST OF AREA. THIS WILL CONTINUE THE HOT WEATHER WITH ONLY ISOLATED CONVECTIVE ACTIVITY OVER CENTRAL GEORGIA. A WEAK COLD FRONT OR SURFACE TROUGH MOVES OVER THE AREA FRIDAY. THIS WILL GIVE SOME POTENTIAL FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE CWA. HOW MUCH POTENTIAL WILL NEED TO BE WATCHED CLOSELY. TEMPERATURES WILL BE ABOUT THE SAME OR SLIGHTLY COOLER FOR PARTS OF N GA. .LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/... UPPER RIDGE WILL HAVE MOVED WEST OF AREA BY SATURDAY. A WEAK FRONT OR TROUGH ACROSS CENTRAL GA SHOULD HELP SHOWER/THUNDERSTORM POTENTIAL FOR THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING. A RELATIVELY DRY AIRMASS IN PLACE FOR SUNDAY WITH SOME RAIN POTENTIAL FOR CENTRAL GA. THE SAME LOOKS TO HOLD TRUE FOR MONDAY INTO WEDNESDAY BUT WILL NEED TO WATCH FOR SHORT WAVE ACTIVITY THAT COULD AFFECT THE AREA IN THE NNW FLOW ALOFT. && AVIATION... LITTLE HAS CHANGED OVER THE PAST COUPLE OF DAYS WITH AVIATION. STRONG HIGH PRESSURE ALOFT CONTINUES TO LEAD TO HAZY CONDITIONS WITH WIDELY SCATTERED CONVECTION...MAINLY ALONG AND SOUTH OF A WEAK PRESSURE TROUGH...WHICH IS A LITTLE FURTHER NORTH TODAY...BRINGING CONVECTIVE ACTIVITY A LITTLE CLOSER TO ATL AND AHN AIR SPACES. STORMS SHOULD BE DONE BY 01Z SO ANY MENTION OF VCSH/VCTS TONIGHT WILL GO UNTIL THEN. WILL LIKELY SEE WIDESPREAD MVFR/IFR CONDITIONS AT ALL SITES NEAR SUNRISE...ALTHOUGH TODAY HAS SEEN IMPROVED VSBYS WITH THE HAZE SO WILL DELAY THE LOWER VSBYS UNTIL ABOUT 09 OR 10Z AT MOST LOCATIONS THURSDAY MORNING. UPPER LEVEL RIDGE DOES NOT START RETROGRADING BACK TO THE WEST UNTIL AFTER THIS FORECAST PERIOD...SO EXPECT MOST OF THE CONVECTION TO STAY SOUTH OF THE ATL AND AHN AREAS TOMORROW AFTERNOON...NEAR THE SURFACE TROUGH WHICH WILL AGAIN FIND ITSELF DRAPPED ACROSS CENTRAL GEORGIA. WILL MENTION VCTS AT MCN AND CSG ONLY. WINDS WILL AGAIN GO CALM OVERNIGHT AND PICK UP INTO THE 5 TO 10 KT RANGE OUT OF THE WEST TOMORROW AFTERNOON. && MG .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
