AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PEACHTREE CITY GA 1118 PM EDT SAT APR 14 2007 .UPDATE... SENDING A QUICK UPDATE TO ACCOUNT FOR UPDATED WATCH...AND ADJUST POPS BASED ON CURRENT CONDITIONS. SIGNIFICANT 850 LL JET AND 500 CAA ALOFT...BUT PLACEMENT OF RIGHT EXIT REGION OF 250 JET MAY HAVE PROVIDED ENOUGH SYNOPTIC SUBSIDENCE TO PREVENT MORE WIDESPREAD THUNDER ACTIVITY. ZONES ALREADY OUT. && .PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 630 PM EDT SAT APR 14 2007/ SHORT TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT/... PRIMARY CONCERN IS THE THREAT FOR SEVERE WEATHER AND HEAVY RAINFALL THROUGH TONIGHT AND STRONG WINDS ON SUNDAY. STRONG UPPER SYSTEM MOVING ALONG VERY SIMILAR TO MODEL PROGS SO FAR. HOWEVER...BULK OF TSRA ACTIVITY BECOMING CLUSTERED OVER SRN AL. FEELING IS THAT THIS COMPLEX OF STORMS MAY INTERFERE WITH MOISTURE RETURN AND LOW LEVEL JET DEVELOPMENT ACROSS GA LATER THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING. ON THE FLIP SIDE...18Z RAOB FROM FFC SHOWS -3 LI AND 240 M2/S2 0-3KM SRH WITH NO MODIFICATION. TEMPS HAVE WARMED QUITE A BIT ABOVE FCST AND THE 500 J/KG SFC-BASED CAPE LINE HAS CREPT NORTH TO COLUMBUS TO DUBLIN LINE. EXPECT INSTABILITY TO INCREASE SOME MORE TODAY WITH ISOLATED SVR STORMS LIKELY NORTH OF COLUMBUS TO MACON TO EASTMAN. SOUTH OF THIS LINE...VERY LARGE SUPERCELL STORM MAY IMPACT FAR SW ZONES INCLUDING STEWART AND CHATTAHOOCHEE COUNTIES AROUND 7 TO 8 PM. THICK CLOUDS ARE ERODING IN FAR SRN CWA AND TEMPS HAVE RISEN TO WELL INTO 80S IN THIS AREA. WILL CONTINUE TO HIGHLIGHT ENHANCED THREAT IN THIS AREA. 12Z GFS AND NAM PRETTY CLOSE ON TIMING AND NOTICEABLY SLOWER THAN 00Z AND 06Z RUNS. 18Z HPC QPF USED FOR FCST...STILL SHOWING LARGE SWATCH OF 1 TO 2.5 INCHES OF RAIN DURING THE EVENT. SHOULD BE PROGRESSIVE ENOUGH TO PRECLUDE ANY THREAT OF FLOODING OR FLASH FLOODING. ALSO AS EARLIER MENTIONED...COMPLEX OF STORMS OVER SC AL MAY DISRUPT FLOW AND VERTICAL MOTION FURTHER NORTH. PRECIP SHOULD END SUNDAY WITH JUST A FEW SCT SHRA DURING THE DAY. STRONG CAA AND RAPIDLY DEEPENING SFC LOW IN THE MID ATLANTIC WILL PRODUCE STRONG WINDS SUNDAY. MAV GUIDANCE STILL PROGGING 22-27KT SUSTAINED WINDS. HAVE HOISTED WIND ADVISORY FOR ENTIRE AREA FOR SUNDAY FROM 10AM TO 8PM. COULD GO ON A LITTLE LONGER IN MOUNTAINS SO LATER SHIFTS SHOULD MONITOR THIS. LONG TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/... PATTERN SHOULD BE PRETTY QUIET IN LONG TERM PERIOD. NEXT CHC FOR PRECIP WILL BE ON WED AS GFS/ECMWF BRING SYSTEM ACROSS THE SRN STATES. 12Z GFS A BIT STRONGER WITH THIS SYSTEM COMPARED WITH THE RUN FROM 24 HOURS AGO. WILL CONTINUE WITH SLT CHC TO CHC POPS ALTHOUGH WILL LIKELY HAVE TO RAISE POPS SIGNIFICANTLY IF THIS TREND CONTINUES. AS WAS THE CASE YESTERDAY...INSTABILITY APPEARS TOO WEAK TO PRODUCE MUCH CONVECTION. BY THE END OF THE WEEK ..BELOW NORMAL TEMPS LOOK ON TAP FOR THE AREA AGAIN. SNELSON AVIATION... CIGS WILL SLOWLY DROP AS RAIN INCREASES THIS EVENING. MVFR MOST LIKELY...AS STRONGEST TSRA APPEAR POISED TO CROSS CENTRAL GA AND WILL STAY SOUTH OF METRO AREA. MAY SEE PERIODIC IFR IN HEAVY TSRA...BUT IT WILL BE SHORT LIVED. WINDS WILL VEER GRADUALLY THROUGHOUT THE EVENING AND INCREASE AFTER FRONTAL PASSAGE AROUND SUNRISE. MAY SEE GUSTS UP TO 30KT. NOT EXPECTING SIGNIFICANT VSBY PROBLEMS OVERNIGHT OTHER THAN IN BRIEF TSRA. STRATUS DECK WILL PERSIST OVERNIGHT AND BETTER PART OF SUNDAY BEHIND THE FRONT. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...

HOWEVER...AREAS SOUTH OF AMERICUS TO SWAINSBORO REMAIN WARM AND UNSTABLE WITH SOUTHERLY WINDS FEEDING SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. VERTICAL WIND SHEAR IN THIS REGION IS MARGINALLY FAVORABLE FOR ROTATING THUNDERSTORMS WHICH COULD PRODUCE DAMAGING WINDS AND POSSIBLY A TORNADO. AS THE THUNDERSTORMS PROPAGATE SOUTHWARD OVERNIGHT...THIS AREA WILL STABILIZE AND THE THREAT FOR SEVERE WEATHER SHOULD END AFTER 2 AM. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY NO HAZARDOUS WEATHER IS EXPECTED AT THIS TIME. .SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT... SPOTTERS NETWORKS ACROSS CENTRAL GEORGIA SOUTH OF AMERICUS TO SWAINSBORO SHOULD REMAIN ACTIVE THROUGH AT LEAST MIDNIGHT. SPOTTERS ACROSS OTHER AREAS OF NORTH AND CENTRAL GEORGIA MAY STAND DOWN.
