AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PEACHTREE CITY GA
451 AM EDT MON AUG 19 2013

.SHORT TERM /TODAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
LATEST SURFACE ANALYSIS SHOWS A SUBTLE WARM FRONT SOMEWHERE NEAR OR
JUST SOUTH OF A RMG TO ATL TO AGS LINE BASED ON DEWPOINTS... WITH A
COOL WEDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE STILL NOSING IN OVER THE NE ZONES.
ALTHOUGH THE WEDGE WILL LIKELY PUSH ACROSS ATLANTA AREA THIS
MORNING... MODELS AGREE THE WEDGE RETREATS TO THE NE WHILE THE WARM
FRONT...WITH A VERY MOIST AND UNSTABLE AIRMASS IN ITS WAKE... WITH
LOWER-MID 70 DEWPOINTS... SPREADS NORTHWARD THIS AFTERNOON. THIS
COUPLED WITH 2.0+ INCH PWS AND AN ACTIVE UPPER TROUGH TO THE WEST
WILL SET THE STAGE FOR ANOTHER ROUND OF SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS AGAIN TODAY. EXPECT CONVECTION TO
INITIATE ALONG THE WARM FRONT AND AN ACTIVE SEA BREEZE DRIVING
INLAND FROM THE GA COAST. ALL THIS ACTIVITY WILL SPREAD NORTHWARD
THROUGH THE LATE AFTERNOON AND EVENING HOURS ALONG AND BEHIND THE
ADVANCING WARM FRONT AND ABUNDANT STORM OUTFLOWS. AS A RESULT...
PERIODS OF HEAVY RAIN REMAIN POSSIBLE ACROSS MUCH OF THE FORECAST
AREA AGAIN TODAY... WITH 1 TO 2 INCHES LIKELY... WITH ISOLATED
HIGHER AMOUNTS POSSIBLE... AND MAINLY FROM MID AFTERNOON THROUGH
THE MID TO LATE EVENING HOURS. THESE RAINFALL AMOUNTS OVER AN
ALREADY VERY SATURATED GROUND FROM 1 TO 3 INCHES THAT OCCURRED ON
SUNDAY... WILL CONTINUE TO BRING A THREAT OF FLASH FLOODING. WILL
PLAY IT SAFE AND POST A FLASH FLOOD WATCH FOR ALL BUT THE FAR NE
ZONES THROUGH 8 PM THIS EVENING. THE FLOOD THREAT WILL GREATLY
DIMINISH BY LATE EVENING AS CONVECTION BEGINS TO DISSIPATE WITH
LOSS OF DAYTIME HEATING AND THE UPPER TROUGH SHEARING OUT.
ALTHOUGH NO SEVERE STORMS ARE EXPECTED... ANYTIME A BOUNDARY IS IN
THE AREA WITH WARM DEWPOINTS AND INCREASING INSTABILITY... AN
ISOLATED STRONG TO POTENTIALLY SEVERE STORM CANNOT BE RULED OUT.
THE PATTERN CHANGES LITTLE FOR TUESDAY... WITH A DEEP TROPICAL
MOISTURE PLUME STILL IN-PLACE. THEREFORE...EXPECT AT LEAST
SCATTERED CONVECTION AGAIN TUESDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING.

TEMPERATURES WILL CONTINUE TO BE TRICKY...AS THE WARM FRONT DRIFTS
NORTH AND OCCASIONAL BREAKS IN THE CLOUDS ALLOW FOR WARM SPOTS JUST
ABOUT ANYWHERE. A BLEND BETWEEN THE MAV AND MET TEMPS LOOK
REASONABLE THROUGH THE PERIOD.

39

.LONG TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY/...
THE WET PATTERN CONTINUES INTO THE EXTENDED. THE SLOW MOVING
FRONTAL BOUNDARY IS NOW OVER CENTRAL GA AND SHOULD CONTINUE MOVING
SLOWLY NORTHWARD THROUGH TUE/WED. THIS FRONT WILL WEAKEN SOME BUT
IT WILL STILL ACT AS A GUIDE FOR GULF MOISTURE TO MOVE NORTHWARD
ACROSS THE REGION THROUGH THE END OF THE WEEK. THE WEDGE LOOKS TO
FINALLY BREAK DOWN TODAY WHICH WILL ALLOW FOR A MORE DIURNALLY
DRIVEN CONVECTIVE WEATHER PATTERN BEGINNING TUE AND CONTINUING
THROUGH DAY 7. BEST TIMING FOR THE HEAVIEST RAIN STILL APPEARS TO
BE IN THE SHORT TERM BUT DEEP TROPICAL MOISTURE REMAINS OVER THE
REGION THROUGH WED/THU WITH PRECIPITABLE WATERS IN THE 1.5 TO 2.0
INCH RANGE THROUGH THU. PRECIPITABLE WATERS GET BELOW 1.3 INCHES
BY FRIDAY MORNING AS THE DEEPER MOISTURE MOVES NORTH AND EAST OF
THE STATE. TEMPS WILL BEGIN TO REBOUND TUE AND BE BACK TO NEAR
SEASONAL NORMS BY THU/FRI.

01

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
AN UPPER TROUGH JUST TO THE WEST WILL INTERACT WITH A WARM...AND
VERY MOIST AIRMASS AS A WARM FRONT ACROSS CENTRAL GA DRIFTS NORTH
TODAY. THIS COUPLED WITH AN ACTIVE SEA BREEZE DRIVING INLAND FROM
THE GA COAST WILL RESULT IN THE POTENTIAL FOR PERIODS OF VERY HEAVY
RAIN AGAIN THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING. ALTHOUGH MODEL AND HPC
RAINFALL AMOUNTS ARE GENERALLY LESS THAN ONE INCH TODAY...
PERSISTENCE SUGGEST OTHERWISE... WITH ANYWHERE FROM 1 TO 2 INCHES
WITH ISOLATED HIGHER AMOUNTS POSSIBLE. THEREFORE... HAVE POSTED A
FLASH FLOOD WATCH THROUGH 8 PM THIS EVENING FOR ALL AREAS EXCEPT THE
FAR NE ZONES WHERE A WEDGE OF COOLER/MORE STABLE AIR WILL BE SLOW TO
RETREAT NORTH. HOWEVER... STILL MUCH UNCERTAINTY ON LOCATION...
INTENSITY AND DURATION OF CONVECTION THROUGH THE AFTERNOON AND
EVENING...SO JUST ABOUT ANYWHERE COULD SEE PERIODS OF BRIEF HEAVY
RAINFALL.

&&

.AVIATION...
06Z UPDATE...
FRONTAL BOUNDARY JUST SOUTH OF ATL SHOULD REMAIN THERE TONIGHT...
THEN DRIFT NORTH OF ATL MON AFTERNOON. LIGHT EAST WINDS WILL
PERSIST TONIGHT...THEN BECOME MORE SE BY MON AFTERNOON AT 7-9KTS.
EXPECT IFR/LIFR CIGS TO PREVAIL AGAIN TONIGHT WITH -DZ/BR
RESTRICTING VSBY DOWN TO 1-3SM AT TIMES. CIGS GRADUALLY IMPROVE TO
MVFR BY 15Z...THEN POSSIBLY LOW VFR LEVELS BY 17-19Z MON AS THE
WARM FRONT DRIFTS NORTH. MODELS SHOW SCT -SHRA/-TSRA AROUND BY MON
AFTERNOON SO WILL INCLUDE A PROB30 -TSRA 20-24Z MON AS ATL GETS IN
THE WARM SECTOR.

//ATL CONFIDENCE...06Z UPDATE...

529 AM EDT MON AUG 19 2013

THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR PORTIONS OF NORTH AND CENTRAL GEORGIA.

.DAY ONE...TODAY AND TONIGHT...

WEATHER HAZARDS EXPECTED...
LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN IS EXPECTED WHICH MAY CAUSE SOME FLASH FLOODING.
ISOLATED TO SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS COULD PRODUCE OCCASIONAL
LIGHTNING AND WIND GUSTS TO 40 MPH ACROSS PORTIONS OF NORTH AND
CENTRAL GEORGIA. ISOLATED STRONG STORMS CAN BE EXPECTED ALONG AND
SOUTH OF A CARROLLTON TO MACON LINE BUT NOT EXPECTING ANY SEVERE
STORMS THROUGH TONIGHT.

DISCUSSION...
A WEDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE IS WEAKENING ACROSS NORTH GEORGIA THIS
MORNING WITH A WARM FRONT MOVING NORTH ACROSS CENTRAL GEORGIA.
THIS FRONT IS EXPECTED TO CONTINUE MOVING NORTH THROUGH TONIGHT.
TROPICAL MOISTURE AND INSTABILITY WILL COMBINE TO PRODUCE ISOLATED
TO SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS OVER NORTH AND CENTRAL GEORGIA. THE
MAIN CONCERN REMAINS FLOODING ACROSS MOST OF THE AREA...SEE THE
FLASH FLOOD WATCH /FFAFFC/ FOR MORE DETAILS...HOWEVER MODERATE
INSTABILITY AND SHEAR ACROSS PORTIONS OF WEST AND CENTRAL GEORGIA
WILL PROVIDE A CHANCE FOR ISOLATED STRONG STORMS THIS AFTERNOON
AND EARLY EVENING.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY...

WEATHER HAZARDS EXPECTED...
HEAVY RAIN WITH LOCALIZED FLOODING AND RIVER FLOODING IS POSSIBLE.
OCCASIONAL LIGHTNING AND GUSTY WINDS WITH THE STRONGER STORMS ARE
POSSIBLE MAINLY ACROSS CENTRAL GEORGIA CLOSE TO THE NEARLY
STATIONARY FRONTAL BOUNDARY DURING THE AFTERNOON PERIODS THROUGH
THE END OF THE WEEK.

DISCUSSION...
A STATIONARY FRONT AND DEVELOPING UPPER LEVEL TROUGH WILL BECOME
THE FOCUS FOR A WET PERIOD AS DEEP TROPICAL MOISTURE MOVES OVER
THE AREA THROUGH THE END OF THE WEEK. CONDITIONS WILL CONTINUE TO
BE MONITORED CLOSELY FOR POTENTIAL FLOODING THROUGH THURSDAY. A
MORE DIURNALLY DRIVEN THUNDERSTORM PATTERN MAY RETURN BY THE END
OF THE WEEK.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...
SPOTTER ACTIVATION IS NOT REQUESTED BUT SPOTTERS ARE ENCOURAGED
TO SUBMIT REPORTS OF SEVERE WEATHER OR FLOODING THROUGH THE WEB BY
GOING TO WEATHER.GOV/ATLANTA.
