AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PEACHTREE CITY GA
949 PM EDT SUN JUN 3 2012

UPDATE...
NEXT ROUND OF CONVECTION WELL UPSTREAM IN WESTERN TENNESSEE JUST
ENTERING NORTHWEST ALABAMA AT THIS TIME. CURRENT CONFIGURATION OF THE
FORECAST GRIDS AND THE TEXT PRODUCTS CONTINUE TO COVER THIS EVOLUTION
WELL SO NO FURTHER UPDATES ARE PLANNED AT THIS TIME. MAIN SHORT WAVE

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 329 PM EDT SUN JUN 3 2012/

SHORT TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT/...
AN UNSETTLED WEATHER PATTERN GETTING READY TO AFFECT THE AREA AS
SHORT WAVES IN THE UPPER FLOW LOOK TO BRING A COUPLE OF ROUNDS OF
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS...ROUGHLY LATER TONIGHT/EARLY MONDAY AND
LATER MONDAY TO MONDAY NIGHT. ENOUGH INSTABILITY ASSOCIATED THAT
THERE IS A CHANCE OF STRONG STORMS LATER TONIGHT AND A SLIGHT RISK
OF SEVERE STORMS ACROSS MOST OF THE AREA ON MONDAY. ENOUGH
UNCERTAINTY EXISTS FOR HOW MUCH OVERALL INSTABILITY BUT GENERALLY
THINK THERE IS PLENTY OF DYNAMICS ASSOCIATED WITH THE SHORT WAVES.
THERE IS ALSO CONCERN THAT THE GFS AND NAM ARE EITHER OVERDOING OR
UNDER-DOING THE SHORT WAVE ACTIVITY. HIGHEST POPS OVER NW GA TONIGHT
WITH 60-70 PERCENT AND 60 TO 70 PERCENT FOR N AND MUCH OF CENTRAL GA
MONDAY INTO MONDAY NIGHT.

FORECAST LOW TEMPERATURES NEAR TO SLIGHTLY ABOVE NORMAL TONIGHT AND
MONDAY NIGHT. FORECAST HIGH TEMPERATURES NEAR TO SLIGHTLY BELOW
NORMAL FOR MONDAY.

OVERALL CONFIDENCE IS MEDIUM.

LONG TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
LATEST RUN OF MODELS CONTINUE TO INDICATE ONGOING PRECIP AT THE
START OF THE PERIOD WITH THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY MEANDERING SOMEWHERE
ACROSS NORTH CENTRAL GEORGIA EARLY TUESDAY...BEFORE SHIFTING INTO
SOUTH GEORGIA DURING THE AFTERNOON. WILL NEED TO CONTINUE PREVIOUS
FORECAST TREND WITH SLIGHT CHANCE TO CHANCE POPS MUCH OF THE AREA
WITH BEST CHANCE OVER CENTRAL GEORGIA AS THE FRONT MOVES THROUGH.
LOW CHANCE POPS TUESDAY NIGHT/WEDNESDAY MAINLY EAST AND SOUTHERN
PORTIONS OF THE COUNTY WARNING AREA WITH MODELS SHOWING A WEAK
IMPULSE SKIRTING ACROSS THE TENNESSEE VALLEY INTO THE CAROLINAS...AND
THE REMNANTS OF THE WEAK BOUNDARY MEANDERING NEAR THE GEORGIA-
FLORIDA BORDER. SOMEWHAT DRIER AIR WORKS INTO THE STATE WEDNESDAY
NIGHT/THURSDAY BUT COULD STILL SEE AN ISOLATED SHOWER OR
THUNDERSTORM SOUTHEAST COUNTIES WHERE MODELS HOLD ON TO SOME
LINGERING MOISTURE. GENERALLY DRY FORECAST ON TAP FRIDAY INTO
SATURDAY WITH HIGH PRESSURE DOMINATING...BUT LATEST GFS SHOWING
SOME RETURN MOISTURE ON THE BACK SIDE OF THE HIGH AS IT SHIFTS OFF
THE SOUTHEAST COAST SUNDAY.

FIRE WEATHER...
HUMIDITY LEVELS STRUGGLING TO REACH CRITICAL VALUES THIS
AFTERNOON AND WINDS HAVE NOT BEEN AN ISSUE. WILL LET FIRE DANGER
STATEMENT EXPIRE AT 6 PM. SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS EXPECTED TO
AFFECT MUCH OF THE COUNTY WARNING AREA MONDAY INTO TUESDAY SO NO
FIRE WEATHER CONCERNS ARE ANTICIPATED AT THIS TIME.
