AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PEACHTREE CITY GA
255 PM EST TUE FEB 12 2013

.SHORT TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY/...
SHORT TERM /TODAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
SHOWERS AND ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS MOVING INTO THE AREA AHEAD OF
DEVELOPING LOW PRESSURE CENTER DEEPENING ALONG THE TX/LA GULF COAST.
THIS LOW PRESSURE IS EXPECTED TO MOVE NE AND PUSH OFF THE MID
ATLANTIC COAST BY 00Z-06Z THU. THIS LOW CENTER WILL PULL GOOD GULF
MOISTURE IN ACROSS GA THROUGH WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON/EVENING. CURRENTLY
THERE IS A WARM FRONT OUT AHEAD OF THIS LOW CENTER THAT IS ALONG
THE GA/FL BORDER. THIS FRONT IS EXPECTED TO MOVE NORTHWARD TONIGHT
WHICH WILL HELP TO INCREASE INSTABILITY ACROSS CENTRAL GA.
ISENTROPIC LIFT ALSO INCREASES NORTH OF THIS WARM FRONT THIS
AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT SO WILL CONTINUE WITH WIDESPREAD SHOWERS AND
ISOLATED THUNDER. OVER THE PAST 48 HRS...THE AXIS OF HEAVIEST
RAINFALL HAS BEEN ACROSS CENTRAL GA WITH TWO TO FOUR INCHES ON
AVERAGE. ACROSS THE NORTH...ONE TO TWO INCHES OF RAIN HAS FALLEN.
WITH THE EXTRA 1 TO 3 INCHES EXPECTED WITH THIS SYSTEM WE WILL
CONTINUE WITH THE FLOOD WATCH THROUGH WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON. THE
ASSOCIATED COLD FRONT WILL MOVE THROUGH THE REGION DURING LATE
AFTERNOON WEDNESDAY WITH A DRYING TREND FROM WEST TO EAST BEGINNING
WED NIGHT.

01

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY/...
UPDATED THE FORECAST FOR THIS SATURDAY AND THE SNOW POTENTIAL.
MODEL SOUNDINGS DEPICT A DRY LOW LEVEL...SNOW IS EXPECTED TO FORM
ALOFT AND SUBLIMATE AS IT FALLS INTO THE DRY AIR NEAR THE SURFACE.
MODELS ARE ALSO BACKING OFF ON THE AMOUNT OF OVERALL MOISTURE IN
THE COLUMN. THE ONLY MODEL THAT HAS QPF ACROSS FAR NORTH GEORGIA
IS THE EURO. DECIDED TO LOWER THE POPS AND GO WITH A SLIGHT CHANCE
OF SNOW ACROSS THE NORTH GA MOUNTAINS. OTHERWISE NO OTHER CHANGES
WERE MADE.  SEE PREVIOUS DISCUSSION BELOW.

ARG

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 107 PM EST TUE FEB 12 2013/

LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY/...
THE UPPER LEVEL SHORT WAVE FINALLY PULLS THE REMAINING PRECIP OUT OF
THE CWA WEDNESDAY NIGHT LEAVING A DRY FORECAST FOR THURSDAY AND
THURSDAY NIGHT. FOR FRIDAY...A SHORT WAVE WILL DROP OUT OF CANADA
AND INTO THE MIDWEST DEEPENING THE H5 TROUGH OVER EASTERN CANADA AND
THE GREAT LAKES. IN RESPONSE AN ARCTIC FRONT WILL MOVE ACROSS THE
CWA FRIDAY NIGHT AND EARLY SATURDAY. MOST OF THE MOISTURE ASSOCIATED
WITH THIS FRONT WILL BE ALONG AND BEHIND THE FRONT. LOW LEVEL
THICKNESS PROGS INDICATE A RAIN/SNOW MIX ACROSS MUCH OF THE AREA
FRIDAY NIGHT AND SATURDAY...HOWEVER SURFACE TEMPS WILL KEEP MOST OF
THE PRECIP IN THE LIQUID FORM OVER MOST OF THE AREA...EXCEPT FOR THE
EXTREME NORTH WHERE THERE WILL BE A RAIN/SNOW MIX. THE PRECIP SHOULD
BE OUT OF THE CWA BY 00Z SUN. A STRONG NORTHWEST UPSLOPE FLOW IN THE
MOUNTAINS SATURDAY NIGHT COULD HOLD MOISTURE AND LIGHT SNOW IN FOR A
LITTLE LONGER AND WILL KEEP A 20/30 POP GOING FOR THE NORTHEAST
MOUNTAINS SATURDAY NIGHT. IT APPEARS GUIDANCE TEMPS ARE COMING MORE
IN LINE WITH AN ARCTIC AIRMASS...BUT THEY STILL APPEAR TOO WARM AND
WILL NEED TO DROP THEM A FEW DEGREES.

MUCH DRIER AIR MOVES INTO THE CWA SATURDAY NIGHT AND SUNDAY AND THIS
WILL HOLD THROUGH MONDAY.

17

AVIATION...
18Z UPDATE...
RAIN CONTINUING ACROSS THE AREA BUT MAINLY ACROSS CENTRAL GA.
INSTABILITIES ARE INCREASING ACROSS CENTRAL GA SO MAY SE SOME
TSRA LATER THIS AFTERNOON/EVENING. WINDS ARE IN THE PROCESS OF
TURNING FROM THE NW TO NE AND WILL EVENTUALLY TURN TO THE SE BY
12-14Z WED. WIND SPEED WILL STAY IN THE 5-10KT RANGE THROUGH
TONIGHT...THEN INCREASE INTO THE 12-16KT RANGE WED AFTERNOON AFTER
THE LOW CENTER MOVES EAST OF THE AREA. CEILINGS WILL GENERALLY
STAY IN THE VFR TO MVFR RANGE. THERE WILL BE SOME IFR CEILINGS
BETWEEN 02Z AND 14Z WITH SHRA.

THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR NORTH AND CENTRAL GEORGIA.

.DAY ONE...THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT...

...ADDITIONAL FLOODING IS POSSIBLE ACROSS CENTRAL AND PARTS OF NORTH
GEORGIA TODAY AND TONIGHT...

...SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ARE POSSIBLE LATE THIS EVENING AND OVERNIGHT...

DISCUSSION...
A STATIONARY FRONT WILL REMAIN ACROSS NORTH FLORIDA THROUGH
TONIGHT. GULF MOISTURE WILL CONTINUE TO OVERRUN THE FRONT AND INTO
NORTH AND CENTRAL GEORGIA. THIS WILL BRING WIDESPREAD RAIN TO THE
REGION. SOME OF THE RAIN COULD BE HEAVY...ESPECIALLY ACROSS
CENTRAL AND PARTS OF NORTH GEORGIA. FOR MORE INFORMATION ON THE
FLOODING POTENTIAL...SEE THE LATEST FLOOD WATCH STATEMENT.

AN UPPER LEVEL LOW WILL APPROACH THE AREA LATE THIS EVENING AND
TONIGHT. IN RESPONSE TO THIS LOW...THE STATIONARY BOUNDARY SHOULD
RETREAT NORTH OVERNIGHT AS A WARM FRONT. LOW LEVEL AND DEEP LAYER
SHEAR ASSOCIATED WITH THIS WARM FRONT AND THE RETURN OF LOW LEVEL
MOISTURE COULD LEAD TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS. AT
THIS TIME...IT APPEARS THAT DAMAGING WINDS AND HAIL WILL BE THE
PRIMARY THREATS ALONG WITH AN ISOLATED TORNADO.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY...

THUNDERSTORMS ARE POSSIBLE DURING THE DAY ON WEDNESDAY. SOME OF
THESE STORMS COULD BE STRONG TO SEVERE. THE THREAT OF SEVERE
WEATHER WILL DECREASE AS THE COLD FRONT SWEEPS THROUGH THE STATE
TOMORROW DURING THE DAY.

ALSO...AN ARCTIC COLD FRONT WILL MOVE ACROSS NORTH AND CENTRAL
GEORGIA FRIDAY NIGHT AND SATURDAY. RESIDUAL MOISTURE FROM THE
FRONT COULD PRODUCE LIGHT SNOW ACROSS THE NORTHEAST MOUNTAINS
WHICH COULD MAKE ROADS SLICK SATURDAY AND INTO SATURDAY NIGHT.

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

...SMALL ICE PELLETS POSSIBLE IN HEAVIER SHOWER ACTIVITY...

A BAND OF MODERATE RAIN AND EMBEDDED SHOWERS WILL MOVE ACROSS THE
AREA OVER THE NEXT 3 TO 4 HOURS. GIVEN THE TEMPERATURE
PROFILE...IT WILL BE POSSIBLE FOR SMALL ICE PELLETS TO MIX IN AT
TIMES WITH THE HEAVIER SHOWER ACTIVITY. THIS WILL BE AN ISOLATED
EVENT AND GROUND TEMPERATURES REMAIN MUCH TOO WARM FOR ANY
ACCUMULATIONS.
