400 PM EDT SAT MAR 15 2008

.SHORT TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT/...
HAVE HAD SVR WX ALL AFTERNOON SO WILL MAKE THIS SHORT. SURFACE
LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM ALONG THE AL/GA STATE LINE WEST OF CARROLLTON
CONTINUES TO GRADUALLY DEEPEN AS IT MOVES EAST TO NORTHEAST. SPC
HAS PUT MOST OF NORTH AND CENTRAL GA IN A MODERATE TO HIGH RISK
OF SEVERE WX FOR THE REMAINDER OF THIS AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING.
18Z FFC SOUNDING SHOWS STRONG SHEAR ENVIRONMENT WITH HELICITY VALUES
OF 536 M2/S2 AND INSTABILITY WITH CAPES VALUES OF NEAR 800 J/KG AND
LIFTED INDICES OF -5 TO -6 TO SUPPORT SUPERCELLS. NUMEROUS REPORTS
OF LARGE HAIL UP TO GOLFBALL SIZE WITH SEVERAL TORNADOES HAVE
ALREADY OCCURRED AND CAN BE EXPECTED. THE ATLANTA METRO AREA IS
UNDER THE GUN RIGHT NOW.

OTHERWISE...THE LOW WILL MOVE EAST TO NORTHEAST OVER NORTH GA
THIS EVENING AND INTO THE WESTERN CAROLINAS TONIGHT ENDING THE
SVR WX THREAT. A HIGH PRESSURE RIDGE WILL BUILD OVER THE STATE
SUNDAY AND CONTINUE INTO MONDAY WITH FAIR AND SEASONAL WEATHER.
NO SIGNIFICANT CHANGES TO MOS GUIDANCE DUE TO THE EXTREME
CIRCUMSTANCES TODAY.

.LONG TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
UPPER LOW PROGGED BY GFS AND ECMWF TO MOVE INTO THE SRN PLAINS
TUES AND MS VALLEY WED...HOWEVER GFS KEEPS SYSTEM MUCH MORE

SCATTERED SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED ACROSS NORTH AND CENTRAL
GEORGIA THIS EVENING.

.SYNOPSIS...
A COMPLEX OF STRONG THUNDERSTORMS WAS MOVING ACROSS NORTH GEORGIA AT
LATE THIS AFTERNOON...AND WILL CONTINUE TO PUSH ACROSS NORTH AND

POWERFUL UPPER LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM THAT WILL BE MOVING INTO THE OHIO

FUELING THE DEVELOPMENT OF STRONG THUNDERSTORMS ALONG THIS LINE.
HIGH CAPE VALUES AND FAVORABLE LIFTED INDICES ARE HELPING TO ENHANCE
THE SEVERE THREAT ACROSS NORTH AND CENTRAL GEORGIA. STRONG WIND
SHEAR WILL CONTRIBUTE TO A RISK FOR ISOLATED TORNADOES.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY
NO HAZARDOUS WEATHER EXPECTED SUNDAY THROUGH TUESDAY. THERE IS
ANOTHER CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS LATE TUESDAY NIGHT AND WEDNESDAY.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...
SPOTTERS ARE ENCOURAGED TO SUBMIT REPORTS OF SEVERE WEATHER
