AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATE
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PEACHTREE CITY GA
916 PM EST FRI DEC 18 2009

.UPDATE...
LATEST SURFACE ANALYSIS SHOWS THE SURFACE LOW ALONG THE GA AND SC
COASTS AND CONTINUING TO PUSH OFF TO THE NE. RADAR SHOWS THE HEAVIER
RAINS HAVE PUSHED WELL EAST...WITH ONLY PATCHES OF LIGHT RAIN AND
DRIZZLE LINGERING IN PLACES. HAVE UPDATED ZONES TO WORD FOR A SLIGHT
CHANCE OF RAIN OR DRIZZLE FOR MOST AREAS...CHANCE FURTHER NORTH AND
EAST. LATEST OBS SHOW TEMPS STILL WELL ABOVE FREEZING. HOWEVER...
WILL CONTINUE TO MENTION A CHANCE OF SNOW OVER THE NORTH GA MTNS
AFTER MIDNIGHT AS THE COLDER AIRS ADVECTS SOUTHWARD BEHIND THE
DEPARTING SURFACE LOW...AND AMPLE WRAP AROUND CLOUDS/MOISTURE
CONTINUE TO SPREAD ACROSS THE AREA. /39

-------------------PREVIOUS FORECAST------------------------
.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.
RRH

.AVIATION...
SURFACE LOW PRESSURE CURRENTLY MOVING ACROSS SOUTH GA...WILL
CONTINUE TO PUSH OFF TO THE ENE OVERNIGHT. AS A RESULT...EXPECT
CURRENT NNE WINDS 10KTS TO SHIFT NW AND DIMINISH UNDER 10KTS BY 03Z
THIS EVENING. WINDS WILL GO WESTERLY BY SATURDAY AFTERNOON. AS FOR
CIGS AT ATL...IT APPEARS CIGS WILL WAVER BETWEEN IFR (BKN008) AND
MVFR (BKN015) BETWEEN 00Z-03Z AS THE -RA PULLS OFF TO THE ENE AND
SHORTWAVE ENERGY ALOFT SWINGS THRU THE BASE OF THE LONGWAVE TROUGH.
AS WINDS DIMINISH...SUSPECT CIGS WILL SETTLE DOWN INTO THE IFR
(OVC007) RANGE BY 03-04Z SAT. NAM SUPPORTS THIS TREND...ALTHOUGH
HOLDS THE IFR CIGS OFF UNTIL 06Z SAT. BOTH NAM AND GFS SHOW LIFR
CIGS DEVELOPING EARLY SAT MORNING...WITH NAM BY 09Z AND GFS BY 12Z
SAT. WOULD LEAN TOWARD DELAYING LIFR (OVC004) CIGS UNTIL 06Z OR
LATER...THEN IMPROVING TO IFR (OVC007) BY 15Z...AND MVFR (OVC015)
BY 18Z SAT. EXPECT THE MVFR CIGS TO PERSIST THROUGH SATURDAY...AND
LIKELY THROUGH SUNDAY MORNING DUE TO AMPLE WRAP AROUND MOISTURE
SPREADING  ACROSS THE STATE...AND MAIN AXIS OF LONGWAVE TROUGH NOT
SWINGING EAST UNTIL 16-18Z SUN.  /39
