Severe Thunderstorm Warning 410, NWS Atlanta, GA

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PEACHTREE CITY GA
630 PM EDT THU AUG 23 2007

.SHORT TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/...
STRONG SUBTROPICAL UPPER RIDGE...CENTERED NEAR BHM...WILL DRIFT
SLIGHTLY FURTHER WEST...THEN START A NEWRD MOVEMENT TOWARD THE
TN/SOUTHERN APPALACHIAN REGION...ALL THE WHILE WEAKENING. THE
UPPER HIGH WILL THEN DRIFT WEST AND BE CENTERED OVER THE ARLKATEX
REGION INTO THE WEEKEND...BUT REMAIN ELONGATED ALL THE WAY FROM TX
INTO THE SE. AROUND THE EASTERN PERIPHERY OF THE UPPER HIGH...A
WEAKNESS/INVERTED TROUGH/EASTERLY WAVE WILL DEVELOP ALONG THE SE
U.S. COAST...AND SLOWLY PROPAGATE SW INTO THE WEEKEND.
MEANWHILE...THE WESTERLIES ARE STRENGTHENING WITH A STRONG SHORT
WAVE PROGGED TO MOVE THROUGH THE OH VALLEY INTO THE WEEKEND. THIS
SHORT WAVE IS NOW SUPPORTING A MAJOR SEVERE WEATHER OUTBREAK IN
THE NORTHERN PLAINS/MIDWEST.  AS THE UPPER HIGH DRIFTS WEST OF THE
AREA...NORTHWEST FLOW ALOFT WILL ALLOW THE SHORT WAVE AND
ASSOCIATED FRONT TO PENETRATE INTO THE SE U.S. FOR SAT-SUN. THIS
WILL RESULT IN INCREASED CONVECTION OVER THE WEEKEND...WITH LATE
SAT - SUN APPEARING TO BE THE MOST FAVORABLE TIME FROM N-S. BEYOND
THAT...THE UPPER HIGH BUILDS BACK INTO THE SE FOR THE FIRST HALF
OF NEXT WEEK...BUT GA REMAINS NEAR THE EASTERLY PERIPHERY...WHICH
WILL CONTINUE TO ALLOW SHORT WAVES AND COLD POOLS ALOFT TO DRIFT S
ACROSS THE AREA FROM THE OHIO VALLEY AND MID-ATLANTIC REGION. SFC
HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE MID-ATLANTIC...BRINGING AN EASTERLY FLOW
TO THE REGION NOW...WILL BE SHORT LIVED AS BERMUDA HIGH TAKES
OVER AGAIN BY FRI...BRINGING SFC WINDS BACK TO THE SW.

THE MCS...WHICH BROUGHT WIDESPREAD SEVERE WEATHER TO SOUTHERN
PARTS OF THE CWA LAST NIGHT...WAS WELL DEPICTED BY GFS ON 12Z RUN
YESTERDAY. CURRENT GFS HAS THIS CONTINUING TO DRIFT WSW THROUGH
THE DAY AND INTO FRI...CENTERED NEAR MSY BY TONIGHT. NAM DOES NOT
INITIALIZE WELL AT ALL AND DOES NOT SEE MCS. IN ADDITION...IT
TRIES TO BRING THE AREA UNDER THE WESTERN SIDE OF AN ATLANTIC
SUBTROPICAL RIDGE...INSTEAD OF THE EASTERN SIDE OF THE SOUTHERN
U.S. SUBTROPICAL RIDGE. ECMWF AND UKMET ARE IN GOOD AGREEMENT WITH
GFS. SUBSIDENCE ON BACK SIDE OF MCS SYSTEM SHOULD INITIALLY LIMIT
CONVECTION ACROSS SOUTHERN/CENTRAL PARTS OF THE STATE.
HOWEVER...AIR MASS ACROSS THE REGION IS EXTREMELY UNSTABLE WITH LI
AROUND -7 AND CAPES IN EXCESS OF 3000 J/KG....K INDEX
45...ETC...AND UPSLOPE FLOW PROVIDING OROGRAPHIC LIFTING ACROSS
THE MOUNTAINS THIS AFTERNOON...AND BEST THREAT FOR CONVECTION
THROUGH THE EVENING HOURS WILL BE IN THE N MOUNTAINS...AND
POSSIBLY NW GA AS WELL...ALTHOUGH THAT AREA IS CLOSER TO LARGE
SCALE SUBSIDENCE NEAR THE UPPER RIDGE CENTER.

HOTTEST TEMPERATURES WILL DRIFT WEST WITH THE UPPER HIGH AND
HOPEFULLY WE HAVE SEEN THE LAST OF THE 100S...WITH THE POSSIBLE
EXCEPTION OF THE WESTERN BORDER.

FOR FRI...MOST OF THE AREA SHOULD SEE BETTER CHANCES FOR
CONVECTION THAN TODAY AS THE UPPER RIDGE BACKS OFF TO THE WEST AND
THE WEAK UPPER LOW DRIFTS CLOSER TO THE SE SECTIONS. THE HIGHEST
POPS WILL BE ACROSS THE SE...BUT CANNOT RULE OUT CONVECTION
ANYWHERE. GIVEN PATTERN...IT SHOULD BE LARGELY DIURNAL. FOR SAT-
SUN...BETTER CHANCES FOR CONVECTION AS THE FRONT AND UPPER TROUGH
DRIFT INTO THE AREA FROM THE NW. BEST CHANCES FOR SAT SHOULD BE IN
THE NORTH...BUT CANNOT RULE OUT CONVECTION ANYWHERE BECAUSE OF
WEAK LOW PRESSURE AND EASTERLY FLOW OVER THE SOUTHERN AREAS. FOR
SUN...CHANCE POPS WARRANTED EVERYWHERE AS THE FRONT STALLS ACROSS
THE CENTRAL PART OF THE CWA AND SHORT WAVE ENERGY CONTINUES TO
DRIFT SOUTH AROUND THE EASTERN PERIPHERY OF THE UPPER HIGH.

.LONG TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
MON-WED...CONVECTION WILL BECOME MORE DIURNAL AND MORE SCATTERED AS
THE FRONT WASHES OUT AND THE UPPER HIGH...ALBEIT WEAKER...DRIFTS
BACK OVER THE AREA. BEST CHANCES APPEAR IN THE SOUTH PART OF THE
CWA MON-TUE. BY WED...YET ANOTHER SHORT WAVE AND FRONT DRIFT INTO
THE AREA FROM THE NORTH AND ENHANCE THE CHANCES FOR CONVECTION
AGAIN. CHANCE POPS APPEAR WARRANTED THROUGH MUCH OF THE EXTENDED
PERIOD...ESPECIALLY DURING THE AFTERNOON/EVENING HOURS. AT THIS
POINT...IT APPEARS THAT THU OFFERS THE BEST CHANCE OF WIDESPREAD
CONVECTION SUPPORTED SYNOPTICALLY. BOTH THE FRONT THIS WEEKEND AND
THE ONE LATE NEXT WEEK ARE WELL SUPPORTED BY LARGE AREAS OF
CANADIAN HIGH PRESSURE...ALTHOUGH THE GENERAL TRAJECTORY OF THIS
WILL BE EASTWARD TOWARD THE NE U.S. IT IS CLEAR THAT THE TREND
TOWARD A FALL PATTERN IS BEGINNING THROUGH THIS FORECAST PERIOD.
HOPEFULLY...WE HAVE JUST ABOUT SEEN THE LAST OF THE 100 DAYS.
COULD NOT TOTALLY RULE OUT A FEW SPOTS REACHING 100 AHEAD OF THE
FRONT MID PART OF NEXT WEEK...BUT MAX TEMPS...ALTHOUGH REMAINING
ABOVE NORMAL...SHOULD BE DROPPING CLOSER TO SEASONAL NORMALS AS
THE WEEK PROGRESSES.

&&
.AVIATION...
AIRMASS REMAINS VERY MOIST OVER THE AREA WITH DWPTS IN THE 70S. THE
WINDS SHOULD CONTINUE OUT OF THE E-SE AT THE SURFACE...BUT
FROM THE NE ALOFT. THIS FLOW...AND THE HIGH MOISTURE POOL COULD SEE
THESE STORMS DRIFT FURTHER SOUTH DURING THE EVENING...THOUGH THE
UPPER LEVEL SHORTWAVE ROTATING AROUND THE RIDGE PULLS BACK INTO
ALABAMA. SATL SHOWS THE CIRRUS SHIELD SPREADING AND WE MIGHT SEE
REDUCED VSBYS DURING THE MRNG HOURS DUE TO HAZE.

THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR NORTH AND CENTRAL GEORGIA.

.DAY ONE...THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT
SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS ARE POSSIBLE ACROSS PORTIONS OF NORTH AND
CENTRAL GEORGIA THIS EVENING.

.SYNOPSIS...
THE UPPER LEVEL RIDGE THAT HAS DOMINATED THE SOUTHEAST U.S. FOR
THE PAST FEW DAYS WILL BEGIN TO WEAKEN AS IT DRIFTS WESTWARD AND
BECOME CENTERED OVER ALABAMA TODAY. A WEAK SHORTWAVE ALOFT WILL MOVE
ACROSS THE CAROLINAS INTO EAST GEORGIA THIS EVENING AND INTO ALABAMA
BY MORNING.

.PRIMARY HAZARDS...
STRONG GUSTY WINDS...FREQUENT LIGHTNING AND HAIL WILL BE THE PRIMARY
HAZARDS WITH THE THUNDERSTORMS THAT DEVELOP. THE BEST CHANCE

CENTRAL GEORGIA MAINLY BEFORE 10 PM.

.DISCUSSION...
A WEAK SHORTWAVE MOVING ACROSS THE CAROLINAS INTO EAST GEORGIA
WILL AID IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF THUNDERSTORMS TODAY. LIFTED INDICES
HAVE CLIMBED INTO THE -2 TO -4 RANGE WITH CAPES INCREASING INTO THE
1500 TO 2500 RANGE...WHILE DIFFERENTIAL HEATING AND WEAK UPSLOPE
FLOW ARE AIDING IN THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT IN THE MOUNTAINS. SOME
STORMS WILL BE STRONG...AND BECOME SEVERE.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY
ISOLATED TO SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS ARE POSSIBLE EACH DAY...MAINLY
DURING THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...
SPOTTER ACTIVATION IS NOT ANTICIPATED AT THIS TIME.
