AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED FOR AVIATION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PEACHTREE CITY GA
506 AM EDT WED SEP 23 2009

.SHORT TERM /TODAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
HIGH PRESSURE ALOFT WILL SUPPRESS PRECIP CHANCES TODAY FOR MANY
AREAS. WEAKENING EASTERLY WAVE APPROACHING TRIES TO MOVE ACROSS
TODAY AND TONIGHT. INSTABILITY WILL REMAIN RATHER WEAK WITH
GENERALLY SMALL CHANCES FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. A SHORT WAVE
OR TWO MOVING NNE IN THE UPPER FLOW COULD HAVE SOME EFFECT OVER FAR
NW AND N GA...BUT MOST OF THE CONVECTION IN N AL SHOULD STAY OVER
THAT AREA.

BETTER MOISTURE MOVING UP THE W SIDE OF THE RIDGE FOR THURSDAY WILL
BRING BETTER CHANCES FOR SHOWERS AND STORMS TO N GA WITH LESSER
CHANCES FOR CENTRAL GA. A WEAK COLD FRONT WILL BE APPROACHING NE GA
LATE THURSDAY NIGHT WITH MUCH OF THE ASSOCIATED MOISTURE NORTH AND
EAST OF THE AREA.

HIGH TEMPERATURES RUNNING 3-6 DEGREES ABOVE NORMAL TODAY AND
THURSDAY. LOW TEMPERATURES RUNNING 6-8 DEGREES ABOVE NORMAL THE
NEXT 2 NIGHTS.

OVERALL CONFIDENCE IS MODERATE.

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
COLD FRONT TRIES TO BACK DOOR N AND E GA FRIDAY AS HIGH PRESSURE
BUILDS DOWN THE EAST APPALACHIANS AND SETS UP A COLD AIR DAMMING
EVENT THROUGH SATURDAY WITH INCREASED PRECIP CHANCES THROUGH SUNDAY
AS A MORE ACTIVE WEST UPPER FLOW MOVES OVER THE AREA. THE MOISTURE
EXITS LATER SUNDAY INTO MONDAY WITH THE PASSAGE OF A SHORT WAVE.
A COLD FRONT WITH MINIMUM MOISTURE ASSOCIATED THEN SWEEPS ACROSS THE
AREA TUESDAY...WITH COOLING AND DRYING ASSOCIATED. TEMPERATURES WILL
CONTINUE ON THE WARM SIDE FRIDAY WITH THE FRONT NOT LIKELY TO GET
VERY FAR INTO THE AREA. CLOUDS/PRECIP CHANCES AND COLD AIR DAMMING
WILL COOL THINGS OFF FOR SATURDAY.

.AVIATION...
IFR CIGS SLOW TO DEVELOP THIS MORNING...BUT JUST STARTING TO SEE
SOME HINT OF CIGS NEAR 1 THSD FEET EAST SIDE OF STATE JUST SOUTHEAST
OF AHN. NOT SURE IF THESE LOW CIGS WILL MAKE IT AS FAR NORTH AND
WEST AS ATL METRO...BUT WILL PLAY FOR SCT/BKN CLOUDS IN THE 1 TO 2
THSD FOOT RANGE MOST PLACES BY OR SHORTLY AFTER SUNRISE. LOOK FOR
ANY IFR CIGS TO LIFT INTO THE MVFR RANGE BY MID MORNING...THEN
IMPROVE INTO THE LOW VFR RANGE BY NOON. SO FAR VSBYS HOLDING 6
MILES OR BETTER...BUT WITH PATCHY FOG AROUND...MVFR VSBYS NOT OUT OF
THE QUESTION...ESPECIALLY AT FAVORED LOCATIONS...IE AHN AND FTY.
THINK PRECIP CHANCES FAIRLY SLIM TODAY...AND WILL FOLLOW PREVIOUS
TAF TREND WITH MENTION OF CB MOST PLACES AFTER 18Z. EAST/SOUTHEAST
WINDS 5 TO 10 KTS CONTINUES FOR MUCH OF THE PERIOD.
