AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATE
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PEACHTREE CITY GA
1000 PM EDT SUN OCT 6 2013

.UPDATE...
NO BIG CHANGES TO THE FORECAST...BUT HAVE TRIED TO ADJUST POPS AND
QPF TO REFLECT RADAR TRENDS AND SHIFT THE HIGHEST POPS A BIT TO THE
EAST AND NORTH UNTIL AT LEAST AROUND 06Z.

41

.PREVIOUS...
.SHORT TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH MONDAY/...
SHORT TERM MODELS ARE IN GOOD AGREEMENT ON ABSORBING THE REMNANTS OF
KAREN INTO THE APPROACHING FRONTAL SYSTEM THAT IS STILL ON TAP TO
PUSH ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA TONIGHT THROUGH EARLY MONDAY. AS A
RESULT... MODELS SHOW AMPLE 2.0+ INCH PW'S SPREADING NORTHWARD BY
EARLY THIS EVENING AHEAD OF THE COLD FRONT...WHICH WILL SERVE TO
ENHANCE WIDESPREAD SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ALONG AND AHEAD OF THE
FRONT. DESPITE THE ABUNDANT AVAILABLE TROPICAL MOISTURE... IT SEEMS
THE FRONT SPEEDS UP ENOUGH LATER TONIGHT TO HELP HOLD WIDESPREAD
RAINFALL AMOUNTS DOWN TO AROUND 1 TO 2 INCHES. HOWEVER...EXPECT TO
SEE SOME ISOLATED HIGHER TOTALS IN THE 3-4 INCH RANGE BY EARLY
MONDAY MORNING AS CONVECTION BEGINS TO TRAIN UP FROM THE SOUTH AND
SOUTHWEST AHEAD OF THE COLD FRONT. THESE POTENTIAL HIGHER RAINFALL
AMOUNTS COULD RESULT IN ISOLATED BRIEF FLASH FLOODING TONIGHT...
AND/OR MINOR FLOODING ALONG STREAMS/RIVERS BY SOMETIME EARLY-MID
MONDAY MORNING AS WIDESPREAD RUNOFF RESULTS IN RISING WATER
LEVELS.

AS FOR SEVERE POTENTIAL... SPC CONTINUES TO SHOW A 5 PERCENT CHANCE
OF DAMAGING WINDS THIS EVENING AND OVERNIGHT ACROSS MUCH OF NORTH GA
AS MODELS SHOW A MORE ORGANIZED LINE/CLUSTER OF SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS PUSHING INTO NW GA BY 5-7 PM... AND CONTINUING TO
TRACK ACROSS MUCH OF NORTH GA THROUGH THE EVENING AND EARLY MONDAY
MORNING HOURS AHEAD/ALONG THE COLD FRONT. ALTHOUGH AN ISOLATED
TORNADO CANNOT BE RULED OUT... THE MAIN SEVERE THREAT APPEARS TO BE
DAMAGING WIND WITH THUNDERSTORMS THAT DEVELOP AND MOVE ACROSS NORTH
GA TONIGHT AND EVEN PARTS OF CENTRAL GA EARLY ON MONDAY.

THE FRONT IS EXPECTED TO PUSH JUST SOUTH AND EAST OF THE FORECAST
AREA BY LATE AFTERNOON/EARLY EVENING MONDAY... WITH HIGH PRESSURE
AND A MUCH DRIER AIR MASS SPREADING IN FROM THE NORTHWEST BEHIND THE
FRONT. AS FOR TEMPS... TOOK A MAV/MET BLEND FOR LOWS TONIGHT AND
HIGHS ON MONDAY... WITH MOS GUIDANCE AGREEING ON MID-UPPER 50 DEGREE
LOWS SPREADING INTO NW GA BY MONDAY MORNING BEHIND THE FRONT. THE
COOLER POST FRONTAL AIR WILL HELP HOLD MONDAY HIGHS IN THE LOWER TO
MID 70S ACROSS NORTH GA AS WELL.

39

.LONG TERM /MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY/...
NO MAJOR CHANGES PLANNED TO THE LONG TERM. MODELS INDICATING AN
UPPER TROUGH MOVES ACROSS THE AREA ON TUESDAY WITH SOME PRECIP
POTENTIAL OVER PORTIONS OF THE ERN FORECAST AREA LATE MONDAY NIGHT
AND TUESDAY. HAVE INCLUDED LOW POPS FOR THAT AREA.

BDL

PREVIOUS DISCUSSION...
A FEW SHOWERS WILL STILL BE EXITING THE SOUTHEASTERN PART OF THE CWA
MONDAY EVENING...BUT BY MIDNIGHT MONDAY NIGHT ALL THE PRECIP SHOULD
BE TO OUR EAST WITH DRIER AIR SPREADING ACROSS NORTH AND CENTRAL
GEORGIA. THROUGH THE REST OF THE WEEK AND H5 RIDGE WILL BE BUILDING
OVER THE EASTERN U.S. WITH A SURFACE RIDGE BUILDING DOWN THE EAST
SIDE OF THE APPALACHIANS AND INTO THE CWA. THIS WILL KEEP A COOL
NORTHEAST FLOW OF AIR ACROSS THE CWA BRINGING NEAR NORMAL HIGHS AND
BELOW NORMAL LOWS. BY NEXT WEEKEND THE MODELS ARE TRYING TO BRING A
WEAK SHORT WAVE INTO THE CWA BUT AT THIS POINT WILL LEAVE IT DRY FOR
NEXT WEEKEND.

17

&&

.AVIATION...
00Z UPDATE...
COLD FRONT VICINITY OF NE AL SHOULD PUSH INTO NORTH GA AND REACH THE
ATLANTA AREA AROUND 06Z...AND MACON AREA BY 12Z. RAIN AND A FEW
THUNDERSTORMS WILL PREVAIL ACROSS THE TAF SITES OVERNIGHT AND END
FROM THE NW BY EARLY MONDAY MORNING. EXPECT MAINLY MVFR CEILINGS
OVERNIGHT WITH SOME AREAS OF IFR. CEILINGS IMPROVING AFTER 14Z
MONDAY. WINDS VARIABLE TO SOUTHWEST 5 TO 10KT AHEAD OF THE FRONT
EXCEPT GUSTY IN THUNDERSTORMS. WINDS BECOMING NORTHWEST 10KT AFTER
FROPA WITH SOME GUSTS.

//ATL CONFIDENCE...00Z UPDATE...
CONFIDENCE MEDIUM ON ALL ELEMENTS.

.DAY ONE...TONIGHT...

ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS EXPECTED TONIGHT.

WEATHER HAZARDS EXPECTED...
LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN AND GUSTY WINDS.

EXPECTED TO PRODUCE AREAS OF LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN THAT HAS THE
POTENTIAL TO CAUSE ISOLATED FLASH FLOODING AND MINOR RIVER
FLOODING. THE MOST LIKELY AREA FOR THIS WILL BE ACROSS NORTH
GEORGIA. IN ADDITION...GUSTY WINDS TO 35MPH WILL BE POSSIBLE WITH
THE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS THROUGH TONIGHT.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY...
