Area forecast discussion, Jan 10, 12:34 PM EST, 2 hours 19 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PEACHTREE CITY GA 1234 PM EST MON JAN 10 2011 .PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 1036 AM EST MON JAN 10 2011/ UPDATE... HAVE ADJUSTED THE WORDING IN THE FORECAST ZONES DUE TO CURRENT RADAR AND PRECIPITATION TYPE TRENDS. WILL CONTINUE WINTER STORM WARNING AND WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY IN THE FORECAST AREA FOR A FEW MORE HOURS EVEN THOUGH THE NEW WINTER PRECIPITATION AMOUNTS THIS MORNING ARE NOT MEETING THE CRITERIA. THIS HAS BEEN A MAJOR WINTER STORM FOR NORTH GA AND I DO NOT WANT TO GIVE THE IMPRESSION THE PUBLIC SAFETY THREAT HAS DIMINISHED BY LOWERING THE WARNING AND ADVISORY YET. WILL CONSIDER SOME COUNTIES AROUND NOON. 16 PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 505 AM EST MON JAN 10 2011/ SHORT TERM /TODAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/... WINTRY PRECIP MOVED INTO WESTERN GEORGIA SUNDAY AFTERNOON. BAND OF HEAVY SNOW MOVED THROUGH THE METRO AREA SUNDAY NIGHT AND INTO TN/SC. THIS WAS THE HEAVIEST PRECIPITATION SEEN DURING THE EVENT AND PROVIDED THE BULK OF THE SNOW AMOUNTS. MOST OF SNOW HAS BEEN CONFINED TO THE AREA NORTH OF I-20 WITH LOCATIONS SOUTH OF THIS SEEING LESS THAN 1 INCH IN GENERAL. SHORTWAVE ALOFT ASSOCIATED WITH THIS SYSTEM WAS PUSHING ACROSS THE LOWER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY WHILE THE SFC LOW WAS SITUATED ALONG THE NORTHERN FLORIDA GULF COAST. WATER VAPOR IMAGERY SHOWS THE UPPER LEVEL FEATURE QUICKLY PULLING OFF TO THE NORTHEAST. A DRY SLOT ATTEMPTED TO FORM OVERNIGHT...BUT RADAR IMAGERY SHOWS ANY DRY SLOTTING WAS ABLE TO FILL IN AT LEAST ACROSS GEORGIA. IN THE NAM/GFS BUFR SOUNDINGS THERE WAS SOMEWHAT OF A SWITCH FROM LAST NIGHT WITH THE NAM INDICATING A STRONGER WARM LAYER THAN THE GFS AT THE BEGINNING OF THE SHORT TERM. WARM LAYER ALOFT IS ADVANCING NORTHWARD AS IS EVIDENCED BY THE FREEZING RAIN LINE ADVANCING NORTHWARD. FREEZING RAIN HAS MADE IT TO ATLANTA AS OVER THE LAST TWO OBSERVATIONS WE HAVE SEEN A TRANSITION FROM RAIN/SLEET TO FREEZING RAIN/SLEET. BACK EDGE OF THE BULK OF THE PRECIPITATION CAN BE SEEN IN EASTERN ALABAMA AND EXPECT PRECIP TO COME TO AN END TODAY FROM WEST TO EAST. SOME FREEZING DRIZZLE WILL BE POSSIBLE BEHIND THE BACK EDGE OF THE SYSTEM. FOR DETAILS ON P-TYPES AND ADDITIONAL ACCUMULATIONS...SEE THE WINTER STORM WARNING /WSWFFC/. POPS FOR TUESDAY ARE LIMITED TO NORTH GEORGIA MOUNTAINS AS A SECONDARY LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM SWEEPS ACROSS THE OHIO VALLEY. ECMWF IS SHOWING MORE PRECIP ACROSS NORTH GEORGIA THAN BOTH THE NAM AND GFS. NAM KEEPS ALL THE PRECIP TO THE NORTH OF THE CWA. BASICALLY TOOK A GFS/ECMWF BLEND WITH THIS. THE FREEZING DRIZZLE AND SNOW SHOWERS SHOULD COME TO AN END BY WEDNESDAY AS BOTH THE UPPER LEVEL AND SFC FEATURE PUSH EASTWARD. WEDNESDAY SHOULD BE DRY ACROSS THE CWA. WITH MAX TEMPS HOVERING AROUND FREEZING ACROSS THE NORTHERN PORTION OF THE STATE ON WEDNESDAY LITTLE MELTING OF SNOW/ICE COVERED SURFACES WILL BE BAD NEWS FOR RECOVERY FROM THE WINTER STORM. 11 LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY/... THURSDAY LOOKS DRY AS STRONG AND COLD SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS TOWARD THE AREA. A SHORT WAVE COULD BRING A CHANCE OF FLURRIES TO N GA THURSDAY NIGHT. MODELS ARE CONSISTENT WITH MOISTURE LACKING FOR ANYTHING MORE. FRIDAY LOOKS DRY AT THIS POINT. ANOTHER WEAK UPPER SYSTEM FOR SATURDAY COULD BRING FLURRIES OR SPRINKLES TO N GA BUT THIS TIME THE EUROPEAN IS DRIER THAN THE GFS. THE NEXT MAIN SYSTEM LOOKS TO AFFECT THE AREA SUNDAY INTO MONDAY WITH POTENTIAL FOR RAIN AND SNOW FOR NORTH GEORGIA. HOWEVER...THE GFS AND EUROPEAN ARE SIGNIFICANTLY DIFFERENT WITH THE GFS BEING FASTER AND COLDER AND THE EUROPEAN BEING SLOWER AND WARMER SO CONFIDENCE WITH THE SYSTEM IS LOW. TEMPERATURES THIS PERIOD WILL BE MAINLY BELOW NORMAL. BDL && .AVIATION... 18Z UPDATE... THE FOCUS HAS SHIFTED AT AREA TERMINALS FROM SN/PL TO PREDOMINANTLY FZRA/FRDZ THROUGH LATE THIS EVENING. WILL EMPHASIZE FZDZ AFT 22Z WITH NO PRECIP AFT 00Z. WILL THEN TURN ATTENTION TO CIG AND VSBY WHICH WILL FALL TO IFR TONIGHT. SOME INDICATIONS OF LIFR VSBY...SO CONFIDENCE IS LOWER FOR THE OVERNIGHT PERIOD. WILL NOT CLEAR THINGS OUT NEARLY AS EARLY AS GUIDANCE AND KEEP MVFR/IFR THROUGH THE END OF THE FORECAST PERIOD. //ATL CONFIDENCE...18Z UPDATE...
