AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PEACHTREE CITY GA
204 AM EDT TUE MAR 12 2013

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 902 PM EDT MON MAR 11 2013/

.UPDATE...
RAIN EXPECTED TO MOVE ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA OVERNIGHT ENDING
FROM WNW TO ESE. EXCEPT FOR TWEAKS OF THE FORECAST...NO MAJOR
CHANGES EXPECTED. BDL

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 722 PM EDT MON MAR 11 2013/

UPDATE...
HAVE CANCELLED THE WIND ADVISORY. WINDS HAVE DIMINISHED ACROSS
THE AREA. THERE MAY BE SOME GUSTS ESPECIALLY AHEAD OF THE
FRONT...BUT WINDS SHOULD REMAIN BELOW ADVISORY CRITERIA.

41

PREVIOUS...
.SHORT TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY/...
PRIMARY CONCERN THROUGH THE SHORT TERM REMAINS TO BE PASSING FRONTAL
SYSTEM BRINGING RAIN TO THE AREA THIS AFTERNOON. MODELS HAVE HAD
DIFFICULTY WITH THE OVERALL TIMING OF THE FRONT INTO THE AREA...BUT
OVERALL CONSENSUS IS THAT THE PRECIP WILL PUSH THROUGH THE AREA
DURING THE EARLY TUESDAY MORNING HOURS.

ALTHOUGH THE MAJORITY OF THE RAIN HAS BEEN MODERATE SHOWERS...THERE
STILL IS ENOUGH INSTABILITY TO SUPPORT MENTION OF ISOLATED THUNDER
THROUGH TONIGHT. FORECAST MUCAPE CONTINUES TO BE LIMITED...BUT EVEN
SO...SIMILAR INSTABILITY OVER ALABAMA PRODUCED SOME LIGHTNING
EARLIER TODAY. STRONG SHEAR IS STILL PRESENT IN THIS ENVIRONMENT BUT
DO NOT EXPECT ANY RISK OF SEVERE STORMS.

WINDS ASSOCIATED WITH THE AREA OF SHOWERS HAVE BEEN REACHING 15 TO
25 MPH WITH GUSTS TO 35 MPH...AND HAVE GONE WITH WIND ADVISORY FOR
THE ENTIRE AREA. ALTHOUGH THE ADVISORY IS NOT SET TO EXPIRE UNTIL 8
PM...THE RISK OF THE HIGHEST WIND SPEEDS IS GENERALLY FOCUSED ALONG
THE LEADING PORTIONS OF THE PRECIP SHIELD...MORE SO IN THE AREAS OF
MODERATE RAIN. WINDS ARE EXPECTED TO SHIFT TO THE WEST AND THEN
SUBSIDE SOMEWHAT IN THE AREA OF LIGHTER PRECIP RETURNS.

HPC CONTINUES TO BE REASONABLE GUIDANCE FOR THE SHORT TERM
QPF...WITH WIDESPREAD 1-1.25 INCHES AND ISOLATED HIGHER AMOUNTS.
THOUGH WIDESPREAD MODERATE RAIN IS EXPECTED...LOCALIZE HEAVY
DOWNPOURS ARE POSSIBLE.

BEHIND THE FRONT...NORTHWEST FLOW WILL USHER A COOLER AND DRIER AIR
MASS INTO THE REGION. HAVE GONE WITH A BLEND OF THE MAV/MET THROUGH
THE SHORT TERM FOR TEMPERATURES AND DEWPOINTS.

31

&&

.LONG TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY/...
DRY CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED FOR THE MAJORITY OF THE LONG TERM
PORTION OF THE FORECAST AS HIGH PRESSURE REMAINS ACROSS THE SE US.
THE NEXT BEST CHANCE OF PRECIPITATION WILL BE EARLY NEXT WEEK AS A
COLD FRONT MOVES THROUGH THE REGION.

HIGH PRESSURE AT THE SURFACE BUILDS IN FROM THE WEST TUESDAY NIGHT
INTO WEDNESDAY. THE GRADIENT WILL TIGHTEN UP A BIT...AND BREEZY
CONDITIONS ARE LIKELY ON WEDNESDAY. WINDS LOOK TO BE THE STRONGEST
ON THE BACKSIDE OF A 500MB LONG WAVE THROUGH THAT MOVES THROUGH EARLY
WEDNESDAY. A WIND ADVISORY MAY BE NEEDED FOR PORTIONS OF THE CWA FOR
THE LATE MORNING AND AFTERNOON HOURS.

EVEN THOUGH WINDS WILL NOT COMPLETELY DECOUPLE TUESDAY
NIGHT...WEDNESDAY NIGHT OR THURSDAY NIGHT...COOLER AIR IN PLACE
COULD LEAD TO TEMPERATURES ACROSS PORTIONS OF THE CWFA AT OR NEAR
FREEZING. FOR TUESDAY NIGHT AND THURSDAY NIGHT...THE BEST CHANCES
FOR FREEZING TEMPS ARE ACROSS THE NORTHERN CWFA. HOWEVER...FREEZING
TEMPS ARE POSSIBLE ACROSS MUCH OF THE CWFA WEDNESDAY NIGHT.

MOST OF THE AREA WILL RECEIVE RAINFALL TODAY. THIS WILL HELP
INCREASE/KEEP FUEL MOISTURES ABOVE CRITICAL THRESHOLDS FOR TUESDAY.
HOWEVER...WITH GUSTY WINDS AND RH VALUES APPROACHING 25 PERCENT ON
WEDNESDAY...THERE IS THE POTENTIAL FOR AN ENHANCED FIRE WEATHER
THREAT. WILL HAVE TO MONITOR THE FUEL MOISTURES. MIN RH VALUES MAY
STAY AROUND 25 PERCENT ON THURSDAY...BUT WINDS ARE NOT EXPECTED AS
GUSTY AT THIS TIME.

NLISTEMAA

&&

.AVIATION...
06Z UPDATE...
IFR TO MVFR CONDITIONS OVERNIGHT IMPROVING TO VFR AFTER 14-15Z. LINGERING
LIGHT PRECIP AND SOME MVFR VSBYS LOOK TO CONTINUE OFF AN ON FOR FIRST
FEW HOURS...THEN IMPROVE WITH ADVANCE OF COLD FRONT. CIGS LOOK TO
HANG AROUND 1000-2500 FT AND COULD WAIVER BACK AND FORTH FROM IFR
TO MVFR. THEY SHOULD BEGIN TO SCATTER OUT AFTER 14Z. WINDS WILL
CONTINUE TO SHIFT NW NEAR 10-12 KTS AND NORTHERN SITES WITH GUSTS
UP TO 20 KTS. WINDS SHOULD INCREASE AFTER 14Z TO 12-15 KTS AND
GUST UP TO 22-25 KTS...THEN DECREASE TO 5-8 KTS AFTER 01Z
WEDNESDAY.
