AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PEACHTREE CITY GA
343 PM EST FRI DEC 18 2009

.SHORT TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT/...
WINDS HAVE DROPPED BELOW ADVISORY CRITERIA AS OF 3 PM...AND THUS
WILL DROP THE WIND ADVISORY SHORTLY. HEAVY RAIN ALSO BEGINNING TO
WIND DOWN THIS AFTERNOON ACROSS WESTERN GA AND WILL START
DIMINISHING BY EARLY EVENING OVER EASTERN PORTIONS OF THE LOCAL
FORECAST AREA. LOW PRESSURE DEPARTING TO THE NORTHEAST AND HIGH
BUILDING IN FROM THE WEST WILL SHIFT WINDS FROM THE NORTHWEST LATE
TONIGHT...WITH STRONGER LOW LEVEL COLD ADVECTION DEVELOPING BY 12Z
SATURDAY. WET BULB TEMPERATURES DROP BELOW FREEZING IN THE
NORTHEAST GA MOUNTAINS BY THAT TIME...THUS WE COULD SEE RESIDUAL
PRECIP CHANGING BACK TO LIGHT SNOW BY MORNING...BECOMING MORE
LIKELY ACROSS THE TYPICAL NORTHWEST UPSLOPE FLOW SNOW LOCATIONS
OVER THE NORTH GA MOUNTAINS SATURDAY MORNING. MOUNTAIN SNOW
ACCUMULATION SHOULD BE LIMITED BY SURFACE TEMPERATURES JUST ABOVE
FREEZING AS BEST CHANCE OF SNOW OCCURS DURING THE DAY ON
SATURDAY...AROUND TIME OF PEAK DIURNAL HEATING. MAY SEE A FEW
LIGHT SNOW SHOWERS LAST INTO SUNDAY IN THE FAR NORTH.

.LONG TERM /MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
THE SURFACE HIGH BUILDING IN FROM THE WEST WILL CROSS GEORGIA ON
MONDAY...LIFTING NORTHEAST INTO THE MID-ATLANTIC STATES BY
TUESDAY. GLOBAL MODELS SHOW THIS HIGH MERGING WITH A NEW ENGLAND
HIGH LATE NEXT WEEK SETTING THE STAGE FOR OUR NEXT WEDGE SCENARIO.
WARM ADVECTION/ISENTROPIC ASCENT OVER THE WEDGE FRONT DEVELOPS ON
WEDNESDAY NIGHT IN ADVANCE OF THE NEXT SIGNIFICANT LOW PRESSURE
SYSTEM MOVING THROUGH THE SOUTHEASTERN STATES ON CHRISTMAS EVE AND
CHRISTMAS DAY. THE MODELS ARE HANDLING THE UPPER LEVEL FEATURES OF
THIS NEXT SYSTEM WITH SOME CONSISTENCY...THOUGH THE EVOLUTION OF
THE SURFACE LOW IS A BIT MORE UNCERTAIN. THE MOST PROBABLE
SITUATION IS THAT THIS SYSTEM SHOULD BE PRIMARY RAIN PRIOR TO A
STRONG COLD FRONT PASSAGE ON CHRISTMAS EVE. MODELS CONTINUE TO
HINT AT THE POSSIBILITY OF LIGHT SNOW IN THE STRONG COLD ADVECTION
BEHIND THE FRONT ON CHRISTMAS DAY FOR PORTIONS OF NORTH GA.
