$$What forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this special weather statement went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Atlanta, GA wrote its last area forecast discussion before this special weather statement went out at Jul 27, 3:10 PM EDT, 23 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Jul 27, 3:10 PM EDT, 23 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PEACHTREE CITY GA 310 PM EDT FRI JUL 27 2012 .SHORT TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/... MAIN FORECAST CONCERN IS THUNDERSTORM POTENTIAL THROUGH TOMORROW ASSOCIATED WITH SEVERAL SHORTWAVES TRAVELING ALONG THE UPPER LEVEL TROUGH SITUATED ACROSS THE EASTERN CONUS. A VERY MOIST AND UNSTABLE ATMOSPHERE IS IN PLACE WITH MLCAPE VALUES OF NEAR 3000 J/KG AND PW VALUES NEAR AND ABOVE 2.0 INCHES. SCATTERED SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT HAS BEEN OCCURRING ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA EARLY THIS AFTERNOON WITH A BIT BETTER ORGANIZED ACTIVITY ACROSS THE SOUTHERN PORTION THAT INITIATED NEAR AN AREA OF ENHANCED BAROCLINICITY DUE TO SOLAR SHELTERING FROM REMNANT CLOUD COVERAGE THIS MORNING. AMONG THE ENSEMBLE OF AVAILABLE HI-RES GUIDANCE SOLUTIONS...THE HRRR SO FAR HAS BEEN VERIFYING WELL WITH THE EARLY CONVECTIVE DEVELOPMENT AND IS STARTING TO PICK UP MORE ON THE INFLUENCE OF THE SHORTWAVE IN THE NORTHERN PORTION CLOSER TO 00Z THIS EVENING. THE WRF IS A BIT MORE ROBUST WITH THIS LATER DEVELOPMENT. WILL THEREFORE EXPECT SEVERAL ROUNDS OF DEVELOPMENT FROM THIS AFTERNOON THROUGH TONIGHT WITH THE MORE ORGANIZED DEVELOPMENT AND GREATER SEVERE POTENTIAL OCCURRING FROM ABOUT 23-02Z ACROSS THE NORTH. SPC ALSO HAS THIS AREA INCLUDED IN A SLIGHT RISK. THE MAIN THREATS WILL BE STRONG WINDS AND HEAVY RAINFALL WITH DOWNDRAFT CAPE ALREADY NEAR 1000 J/KG ACROSS THE NORTH AND MUCH HYDROMETEOR LOADING EXPECTED WITH SUCH A MOIST THERMAL PROFILE. FREQUENT LIGHTNING AND SMALL HAIL WILL ALSO BE POSSIBLE. ISOLATED SEVERE STORM POTENTIAL IS ACROSS THE SOUTH AS WELL AS THE MORE ENHANCED MOISTURE FIELD RESIDES NEAR A PERSISTENT SFC TROUGH. HAVE GONE WITH LIKELY POPS IN THE NORTH AND SOUTH FROM 21-00Z TRENDING INTO CHANCE POPS TONIGHT AND DECREASING TO SLIGHT ACROSS THE NORTH NEAR EARLY MORNING. MAINTAINING CHANCE POPS ACROSS SOUTHERN PORTION OVERNIGHT AND EXPANDING BACK ACROSS MAJORITY OF AREA ON SATURDAY AS THE NAM SUGGESTS ANOTHER SHORTWAVE RIPPLING ALONG UPPER TROUGH. GUIDANCE IS IN GENERAL AGREEMENT WITH THE MAIN TROUGH AXIS LINGERING NEAR THE EASTERN PORTION OF THE AREA INTO SUNDAY. PORTIONS OF THE SOUTH AND EAST WILL THEREFORE HAVE SLIGHT TO CHANCE POPS OVERNIGHT SATURDAY. FOR TEMPS...BLEND OF MAV AND MET LOOKS REASONABLE WITH GENERALLY LOWER TEMPS THAN PREVIOUS DAYS AND INCREASED CLOUD COVERAGE EXPECTED. ATTM THE PROGGED TEMPS AND DEWPOINTS DO NOT MEET HEAT ADVISORY CRITERIA FOR SATURDAY... SO AM CURRENTLY PLANNING ON NO ADDITIONAL ISSUANCE. BAKER .LONG TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/... NOT MUCH CHANGE TO THE PREVIOUS GRIDS. DID INCREASE POPS ON SUNDAY IN RESPONSE TO THE WEAK STATIONARY FRONT AND PROXIMITY OF THE TROUGH AXIS...PROGGED TO BE PRETTY MUCH PARKED OVER THE APPALACHIANS DURING THE DAY ON SUNDAY...WITH A SHORTWAVE PUSHING INTO THE AREA. BEST CHANCES WILL BE IN THE SOUTHEAST HALF TO 2/3 OF THE FORECAST AREA...BUT CANNOT RULE OUT TOPOGRAPHICALLY-INDUCED CONVECTION IN THE NORTHEAST MOUNTAINS. THE NAM GOES A LITTLE NUTS WITH CONVECTION AS THE RESULT OF A VORT LOBE RIDING DOWN THE FLOW ALOFT. ECMWF DOES ACTUALLY HAVE SOMETHING SIMILAR BUT WITH LESS CONVECTIVE FEEDBACK AND THUS A MORE REASONABLE QPF FIELD. OTHERWISE...ONLY MINOR CHANGES MADE TO THE EXTENDED PARTIALLY TO ACCOUNT FOR NEW GUIDANCE MODERATING THE TEMPS SOMEWHAT MONDAY INTO TUESDAY. SEE PREVIOUS DISCUSSION BELOW. TDP PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 346 AM EDT FRI JUL 27 2012/ A COLD FRONT OVER THE CENTRAL GA AREA EARLY SUNDAY WILL LIKELY BECOME STATIONARY...DISSIPATING INTO TUESDAY. DURING THIS TIME AN UPPER TROUGH SETS UP OVER THE EASTERN STATES WITH NW FLOW AFFECTING THE AREA AND THE POTENTIAL FOR SHORT WAVES IN THAT FLOW TO BRING SOME AMOUNT OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS TO THE AREA. THIS PATTERN LOOKS TO CONTINUE THROUGH THE REST OF THE LONG TERM WITH INDICATIONS OF ANOTHER FRONT MOVING TO THE AREA ON THURSDAY. AS THE UPPER TROUGH BECOMES BETTER ESTABLISHED AND DEEPENS OVER THE AREA DURING MID WEEK OR SO...THIS SHOULD COOL HIGH TEMPERATURES CLOSER TO NORMAL. && .AVIATION... 18Z UPDATE... MOSTLY VFR CONDITIONS EXPECTED AND REDUCED VSBYS POSSIBLE WITH ANY CONVECTION. SCATTERED SHOWERS AND ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS HAVE BEEN DEVELOPING THIS AFTERNOON AND SHOULD CONTINUE INTO THIS EVENING WITH ANOTHER MORE WIDESPREAD ROUND POSSIBLE CLOSER TO 00Z FOR THE NORTHERN SITES. CURRENTLY INCLUDING TEMPO GROUP FOR -TSRA FROM 19-23Z TODAY WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR EXTENDING IT TO ABOUT 02Z LATER ON. CIGS HAVE RAISED TO NEAR BKN040. THERE IS THE POTENTIAL FOR MVFR CIGS NEAR 13Z TOMORROW WITH SOME LOW LEVEL MOISTURE...BUT WILL GO FEW030 BECOMING SCT040 BY 15Z FOR NOW. WINDS MOSTLY WEST BECOMING WNW. //ATL CONFIDENCE...18Z UPDATE... MEDIUM CONFIDENCE IN DURATION OF CONVECTION TODAY AND CIGS OVERNIGHT. HIGH CONFIDENCE ALL ELSE.
