.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 340 PM EDT SUN MAY 20 2012/

SHORT TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT/...
ALL MODELS HAVE TS ALBERTO MOVING NORTHEAST AFTER 06Z AND THIS
SHOULD DIMINISH THE WINDS OVER THE SOUTHEAST PART OF THE CWA. WITH
THE CURRENT PROXIMITY OF ALBERTO TO THE CWA...THE SUBSIDENCE RING
WILL HOLD OVER PARTS OF THE CWA FOR THE REST OF THIS AFTERNOON AND
EVENING. THIS SHOULD KEEP CONVECTION LIMITED TO EXTREME NORTH GA
THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING. ALL MODELS HAVE THE NEXT SHORT WAVE AND
ASSOCIATED SURFACE TROUGH MOVING INTO NORTHWEST GA MONDAY MORNING
AND BECOMING NEARLY STATIONARY ACROSS THE CWA MONDAY AFTERNOON AND
REMAINING OVER THE CWA THROUGH TUESDAY. THIS WILL BRING A CHANCE OF
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS TO THE CWA BEGINNING ACROSS NORTHWEST GA
MONDAY MORNING AND ACROSS THE ENTIRE CWA MONDAY AFTERNOON INTO
TUESDAY.

LONG TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
EARLY EXTENDED PERIOD FORECAST DEPENDENT ON TRACK OF TROPICAL
STORM ALBERTO. SHORTWAVE ENTERING THE REGION MONDAY WILL EXIT THE
REGION BEHIND ALBERTO...KEEPING SLIGHT TO CHANCE POPS ACROSS THE
AREA THROUGH WEDNESDAY. DEVELOPING UPPER LEVEL LOW ASSOCIATED WITH
THIS SHORTWAVE TROUGH REMAINS OVER THE REGION THROUGH
WEDNESDAY. BY THE LATTER HALF OF THE WEEK HIGH PRESSURE RIDGE
BUILDS INTO THE AREA...AND EXPECT RISE IN AFTERNOON TEMPERATURES.
OVERALL...HAVE CONTINUED WITH PREVIOUS FORECAST...ONLY INCREASING
HIGH TEMPERATURES FRIDAY THROUGH THE WEEKEND BY 1-2 DEGREES. PREVIOUS
DISCUSSION IS INCLUDED BELOW...

BELANGER

/ISSUED AT 443 AM EDT SUN MAY 20 2012/
PRIMARY FEATURE IN FIRST PART OF LONG TERM PERIOD REMAINS TS
ALBERTO WHICH IS PROGGED BY NEARLY ALL MODELS TO BE EJECTED NE BY
PROGRESSIVE UPSTREAM SHORT WAVE. REGARDLESS OF TRACK FROM NHC OR
ANY OF THE MODELS...SHOULD BE NO MAJOR IMPACT TO SENSIBLE WEATHER
FIELDS IN CWA FROM ALBERTO. OF GREATER IMPACT WILL BE APPROACHING
UPPER TROUGH AND FRONT WHICH BY MONDAY NIGHT WILL EXTEND FROM IN
TO ERN KY TO MS/AL. INSTABILITY AND SHEAR PARAMETERS DO NOT
INDICATE MUCH POTENTIAL FOR MANY SEVERE STORMS MON NIGHT AND
TUESDAY. CAPE SHOULD REMAIN AROUND 1000 J/KG AND 0-6KM BULK SHEAR
10-15KTS. COULD SEE A FEW STORMS PRODUCE SMALL HAIL AS WE HAVE IN
RECENT DAYS. AFTER FRONT PUSHES THROUGH LATE TUESDAY...POPS AND
SVR THREAT WILL DECREASE.

BEYOND THIS...THE REST OF THE WEEK APPEARS MOSTLY DRY. HOWEVER
WITH UPPER HIGH PROGGED BY BOTH 00Z GFS AND ECMWF TO DEVELOP AND
BECOME CENTERED ACROSS THE MID SOUTH...FLOW AROUND PERIPHERY WILL
ALLOW SOME ISOLATED DIURNAL CONVECTION TO FIRE. HAVE KEPT POPS IN
SLT CHC CATEGORY FOR THE DAYTIME PERIODS THROUGH THE WEEK. TEMPS
UNFORTUNATELY WILL LIKELY CLIMB TO ABOVE NORMAL VALUES IN THIS
PATTERN. HAVE TRIMMED BACK FROM LATEST GUIDANCE SINCE THIS RUN
SEEMS TO BE THE FIRST TO BUILD THE UPPER RIDGE A LITTLE STRONGER.
BUT BASED ON CONSISTENCY WITH NEW 00Z ECMWF...WOULD NOT BE
SURPRISED TO SEE MAX TEMPS WELL IN THE 90S FROM MID WEEK ON.
