1054 AM EDT SAT MAR 28 2009

.UPDATE...

SENT QUICK UPDATE FOR TORNADO WATCH. MAIN THREAT OF SEVERE
/ESPECIALLY TORNADOES/ FOR THE NEXT FEW HOURS APPEARS TO BE ALONG
AND SOUTH OF THE WARM FRONT ACROSS CENTRAL GEORGIA. POTENTIAL FOR
SEVERE EXISTS LATER THIS AFTERNOON ACROSS THE ENTIRE AREA AS DRY
SLOT ACROSS ALABAMA ALLOWS SUN TO HEAT UP THE ATMOSPHERE.

RRH
&&

.SHORT TERM /TODAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
MESOSCALE SYSTEM PUSHING INTO WESTERN GA THIS MORNING. MUCH OF THE
CWA IS STILL MORE STABLE...FOR NOW...THAN AREAS TO OUR WEST. BEST
INSTABILITY REMAINS NEAR THE GULF COAST. HOWEVER...BY LATE MORNING
INTO THE AFTERNOON STRONG LOW LEVEL JET CROSSES THE STATE. AIRMASS
BECOMES MORE UNSTABLE AS LIFTED INDEX VALUES APPROACH MINUS 4 OVER
PARTS OF THE CWA. SEVERE WORDING AND HEAVY RAIN CONTINUED FOR TODAYS
FORECAST. UPPER LOW TRACKING TO THE NORTHEAST TONIGHT...PULLING THE
SURFACE FRONT ACROSS THE CWA. RAIN SHOULD BE ENDING FROM THE WEST
THIS EVENING...WITH ONLY LOW POPS IN THE EAST CENTRAL ZONES AFTER
MIDNIGHT. WINDY...DRY AND COOLER FOR SUNDAY. DRY AND WARMER FOR
MONDAY. MAV/MET TEMPERATURES AGREE FAIRLY WELL AND HAVE TAKEN A
BLEND. FLOOD WATCH STILL IN EFFECT.

.LONG TERM /MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY/...
AFTER A BRIEF DRY PERIOD...MOISTURE RETURNS TO THE SOUTHEAST BY
TUESDAY MORNING. ANOTHER SERIES OF SOUTHERN STREAM SHORT WAVES
SHOULD GIVE US PERIODS OF RAIN THROUGH FRIDAY. AT THIS TIME IT LOOKS
LIKE THERE MAY BE A DRY SLOT BETWEEN WAVES WEDNESDAY INTO
THURSDAY. HAVE KEPT MENTION OF THUNDER MAINLY ACROSS CENTRAL ZONES
AS SURFACE PATTERN SUGGESTS ANOTHER WEAK WEDGE FOR MID WEEK.

&&

.AVIATION...
MORE LOW CLOUDS AND RAIN WITH SOME SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS EXPECTED
ACROSS THE AREA TODAY. MAINLY IFR TO LIFR CEILINGS ACROSS THE AREA
THIS MORNING AS NEXT FRONTAL SYSTEM SWEEPS THROUGH THE SOUTHEASTERN
STATES. CEILINGS SHOULD STAY MVFR TO IFR ALL DAY UNTIL THIS SYSTEM
CLEARS THE REGION. THE LEADING EDGE OF THE HEAVY RAIN IS BEGINNING
TO MAKES ITS WAY INTO WESTERN GA AND SHOULD CONTINUE EASTWARD
THROUGH THE DAY. BIGGEST AVIATION THREAT TODAY WILL BE
THUNDERSTORMS. EXPECTING A LOT OF LIGHTNING AND STRONG GUSTY WINDS
WITH THE STRONGER STORMS. VSBYS WILL BE MVFR TO VFR EXCEPT IN AND
AROUND STRONGER STORMS WHERE YOU WILL SEE SOME IFR TO LIFR VSBYS.
WINDS WILL START OUT OF THE SW THIS MORNING TURNING SE BY 12Z AND
THEN TURN BACK TO THE SW AND EVENTUALLY W LATER TODAY INTO SUNDAY
MORNING. WIND SPEEDS WILL BE IN THE 6 TO 12KT RANGE WITH STRONGER
GUST IN AND AROUND ANY CONVECTIVE DEVELOPMENT.
