AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PEACHTREE CITY GA
950 PM EDT TUE MAY 29 2012

.UPDATE...
I HAVE ISSUED A QUICK UPDATE TO RAISE POPS OVER NORTHWEST COUNTIES
AS LINE OF STORMS MOVE OUT OF TENNESSEE...AND LOWERED POPS
SOUTHEAST AS BERYL CONTINUES TO PULL TO THE NORTHEAST. NO OTHER
MAJOR CHANGES MADE AT THIS TIME.

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 340 PM EDT TUE MAY 29 2012/

.CONTINUED LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL IN BANDS FROM REMNANTS OF BERYL...

SHORT TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT/...

CENTER OF THE REMNANTS OF BERYL HAS NOW ENTERED THE FORECAST AREA
MOVING FROM TELFAIR COUNTY INTO WHEELER. EASTERN SIDE OF THE STORM
HAS DEFINITELY BEEN THE WETTEST IN THE THIS STORMS HISTORY AND
TODAY IS NO DIFFERENT WITH FEEDER BANDS OFF THE ATLANTIC COAST
PROVIDING THE MOST CONSISTENT HEAVY RAINFALL. SHOULD SEE ACTIVITY
LOCALLY ENHANCE THROUGH THE AFTERNOON BUT INSTABILITY WILL REMAIN
MARGINAL DUE TO ENHANCED CLOUD COVER. STILL THINKING THE EASTERN
TIER OF THE FORECAST AREA COULD SEE 1 TO 2 INCHES WITH LOCALLY
HIGHER AMOUNTS WHERE CONVECTIVE BANDS SET UP THROUGH THIS EVENING.

SHEAR IS IMPRESSIVE IN THE LOW LEVELS WITH 30 TO 40 KNOTS AT
925MB...AGAIN OVER THE EASTERN SECTIONS. HAVE JUST NOT HAD THE
INSTABILITY TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF SHEAR PROFILE THUS FAR BUT WILL
NEED TO MONITOR CELLS CLOSELY FOR POTENTIAL FOR ROTATION IN CELLS
OR ISOLATED STRONG GUSTS.

SEPARATE ARE OVER MISSISSIPPI THIS MORNING DISSIPATED FOR THE
MOST PART AS IT MOVED INTO PORTIONS OF ALABAMA. HRRR STILL KEYING
IN ON NW GEORGIA FOR POSSIBLE LATE TSRA DEVELOPMENT AND HAVE KEPT
LOW END CHANCE POPS IN THERE THROUGH THIS EVENING.

ON THE BACK SIDE OF BERYL...SIGNIFICANTLY DRIER AIR TO WORK ITS
WAY IN WITH SOUNDINGS SHOWING A PROFILE BARELY SUPPORTIVE OF CU
FORMATION IN THE AFTERNOON FROM ATL NORTHWARD. SLIGHTLY BETTER
MOISTURE OVER THE SOUTHERN TIER AND EMBEDDED SHORTWAVE DURING THE
AFTERNOON SHOULD ALLOW FOR LOW END SCT THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY.

DEESE

LONG TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
TD BERYL PULLS OUT OF THE AREA WEDNESDAY AS A FRONTAL SYSTEM SWEEPS
THROUGH THE STATE. UPPER LEVEL WESTERLY FLOW KEEPS RESIDUAL MOISTURE
OVER THE AREA THROUGH THURSDAY AHEAD OF ANOTHER FRONTAL SYSTEM
MOVING INTO THE STATE FRIDAY. WILL CONTINUE WITH SLIGHT/CHANCE POPS
THROUGH THE END OF THE WEEK. RAIN CHANCES SIGNIFICANTLY INCREASE FOR
THURSDAY AND FRIDAY AS MODELS SHOWING AN UPPER LOW AND ASSOCIATED
FRONTAL BOUNDARY PUSHING EAST OF THE PLAINS ON THURSDAY AND DRAGGING
A COLD FRONT ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA FRIDAY/FRIDAY NIGHT. EXPECT
THE GREATEST THUNDERSTORM THREAT TO BE DURING THE DAY FRIDAY...WITH
2000-2500 CAPE...40KT LOW LEVEL JET AND MODERATE DIFFLUENT FLOW
ALOFT. TOTAL RAINFALL AMOUNTS FOR THURSDAY AND FRIDAY WILL LIKELY BE
AND INCH OR LESS. ONCE THIS FRONT MOVES THROUGH...HIGH PRESSURE
BUILDS IN AND CLEAR TO PARTLY CLOUDY SKIES PREVAIL FOR THE WEEKEND
AND INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK.

01

AVIATION...
00Z UPDATE...
BERYL PUSHING NORTHEAST WITH OUTER BANDS OF PRECIP ASSOCIATED WITH
IT AFFECTING MAINLY SOUTHEAST COUNTIES. LINE OF SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS
MOVING ACROSS NORTHWEST GEORGIA APPEARS TO WEAKENING SOME BUT MAY
SEE A SHOWER OR THUNDERSTORM APPROACH NORTHERN TAF SITES BUT NOT
READY TO PUT IN TAFS AT THIS POINT...BUT WILL NEED TO KEEP A CLOSE
EYE. ALSO WATCHING SECOND LINE PUSHING ACROSS TENNESSEE...WHICH
HRRR SHOWS SOME OF THIS MAKING IT CLOSE TO ATLANTA. OTHERWISE...EXPECT
VFR CONDITIONS TO DOMINATE TAF SITES THROUGH THE EVENING...BUT MAY
SEE SCT-BKN MVFR CLDS AFFECT MAINLY NORTHERN TAF SITES AFTER
MIDNIGHT. VSBYS GENERALLY UNRESTRICTED...BUT BRIEFLY LOWERING INTO
THE MVFR RANGE AT MCN AND AHN 09-13Z TIME FRAME. MODELS SHOWING
DRIER CONDITIONS OVER THE AREA WEDNESDAY...BUT FEW CU AROUND 5
THSD FT POSSIBLE. NORTHEAST WINDS 4 TO 8 KTS CONTINUING THROUGH
