Area forecast discussion, May 22, 10:43 AM EDT, 3 hours 40 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PEACHTREE CITY GA
1043 AM EDT TUE MAY 22 2012

.UPDATE...INITIAL MCS WHICH MOVED THROUGH THE COLUMBUS REGION WITH
JUST LIGHT SHOWER ACTIVITY CONTINUES TO DISSIPATE. ATTENTION NOW
TURNS TO THIS AFTERNOON AND THE ARRIVAL OF COLD CORE LOW WHICH
WILL BRING -16C 500 TEMPS TO THE AREA. GIVEN STEEP LAPSE RATES AND
GOOD PARTICLE SEPARATION DUE TO ADEQUATE MID LEVEL FLOW WILL
SEE SEVERE STORMS WITH LARGE HAIL PERSISTING THROUGH THE EVENING
HOURS. THE LIMITING FACTOR WILL BE THE DRY AIR MOVING IN BETWEEN
700MB AND 300MB AS EVIDENCED BY THE LATEST BIRMINGHAM SOUNDING.
MODELS ALL SHOW THIS DRY AIR MOVING IN OVER MOST OF THE AREA BY
18Z AND VERY DIFFICULT TO ASCERTAIN IF DRY AIR OR EXTREME LAPSE
RATES ALOFT WILL WIN OUT. FEEL THERE WILL BE ENOUGH MOISTURE OVER
EASTERN SECTIONS TO WARRANT SMALL AREA OF LIKELY BUT WILL SHOW A
SHARP POP GRADIENT TO THE WEST.

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 745 AM EDT TUE MAY 22 2012/

SHORT TERM /TODAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
AN UPPER LOW CONTINUES TO ROTATE OVER NRN GA AND E TN TODAY AND
TONIGHT...BUT SLOWLY LIFTS OUT WEDNESDAY AS HIGH PRESSURE SLOWLY
BUILDS EASTWARD FROM THE LOWER MISSISSIPPI RIVER VALLEY. THE SLOW
MOVEMENT OF THE LOW WILL CONTINUE THE CHANCE FOR SCATTERED SHOWERS
OR THUNDERSTORMS OVER PORTIONS OF NORTH GEORGIA AND EASTERN
SECTIONS TODAY AND NORTHEAST LATER THIS EVENING. MODELS SHOW THE
AREA OF HIGH PRESSURE BRINGING A DRIER AIR MASS INTO THE
AREA...BUT WILL BE SLOW CLEARING THE SKIES WEDNESDAY AS THE UPPER
LEVEL TROUGH REMAINS OVER PORTION OF THE STATE.

37

LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT/...
LONG TERM GUIDANCE IS IN FAIRLY GOOD AGREEMENT WITH MAIN INFLUENCING
SYNOPTIC FEATURES. AS A CLOSED UPPER LEVEL LOW OVER THE EAST CENTRAL
CONUS DAMPENS OUT AND EJECTS NORTHEASTWARD BY THURSDAY... A STRONG
UPPER RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD INTO THE EASTERN HALF OF THE
COUNTRY AND PERSIST INTO MONDAY. THE GFS HAS A BIT STRONGER RIDGING
AND FARTHER EASTWARD SETUP THAN THE ECMWF... NONETHELESS A RATHER
WARM AND STAGNANT PATTERN LOOKS TO BE THE RULE THROUGH THE HOLIDAY
WEEKEND. CANNOT RULE OUT ISOLATED CONVECTIVE DEVELOPMENT IN THE
HIGHER ELEVATIONS OF THE NORTH FOR MOST AFTERNOON AND EVENING
PERIODS DUE TO WEAK SOUTHERLY FLOW AND OROGRAPHIC ENHANCEMENT. WHILE
HAVE ONLY SLIGHT CHANCE POPS FOR MOSTLY THE NORTHERN PORTION... THE
BEST CHANCE FOR PRECIP WILL BE NEAR THE END OF THE FORECAST PERIOD
AS THE RIDGE FINALLY BEGINS TO BREAK DOWN.

FOR TEMPS...MEX GUIDANCE LOOKED REASONABLE SO MADE ONLY MINOR
TWEAKS. ABOVE NORMAL TEMPS SHOULD PERSIST THROUGH THE FORECAST
PERIOD WITH THE WARMEST DAYS BEING FRIDAY THROUGH SUNDAY AS MANY
AREAS ARE PROGGED TO REACH HIGHS IN THE LOW 90S.

BAKER

AVIATION...
12Z UPDATE...
THE STORM COMPLEX THAT WAS OVER AL CONTINUES TO WEAKEN AS IT SINKS
SOUTH AND EAST AND NOW MOVING INTO WESTERN GA. THINKING IT MIGHT
HOLD TOGETHER LONG ENOUGH FOR FEW SHOWERS IN VICINITY OF NRN TAFS
AROUND 15Z. THE LINGERING MOISTURE COULD AID IN AFTERNOON
CONVECTION. WINDS TO REMAIN NORTHWESTERLY INCREASING 8 TO 10 KTS
AFTER 15Z. OTHERWISE...EXPECT VFR CONDITIONS TO PREVAIL THROUGH
PERIOD.

//ATL CONFIDENCE...12Z UPDATE...
MEDIUM ON CONVECTION...HIGH ALL ELEMENTS.
