AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATE
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PEACHTREE CITY GA
1002 PM EST TUE FEB 26 2013

.EVENING UPDATE...
CLOUDS WILL PERSIST TONIGHT ACROSS MOST OF NORTH GA. THIS COUPLED
WITH BRISK 8-12 MPH WESTERLY WINDS WILL HELP HOLD TEMPS IN THE UPPER
30S AND 40S FOR MOST AREAS. HAVE UPDATE ZONES TO WARM LOWS UP A
DEGREE OR FEW IN MOST PLACES AS HIGH CLOUDS CONTINUE TO TRAVERSE
MUCH OF CENTRAL GA. OTHERWISE... REST OF FORECAST LOOKS ON TRACK
WITH CLEARING SKIES AND BREEZY CONDITIONS ON TAP FOR WEDNESDAY. /39

.SHORT TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT/...
/ISSUED AT 333 PM EST TUE FEB 26 2013/
THE WEDGE NOSING IN FROM THE NE IS BEING STUBBORN...AS A SFC AND
UPPER LOW CONTINUES TO TRACK INTO THE OHIO VALLEY. THE WEDGE FRONT
IS HOLDING ACROSS THE NORTHERN ZONES...BUT SHOULD GRADUALLY GIVE WAY
AS A COLD FRONT SLIPS ACROSS FROM THE WEST... ESTABLISHING A DRY
GUSTY WESTERLY FLOW FOR TONIGHT AND WEDNESDAY. STILL HAVE ABUNDANT
CLOUD COVER WRAPPING AROUND THE UPPER LOW TO THE NORTH... AND THIS
COULD BRING SOME LIGHT PRECIP TO THE FAR NORTHERN ZONES AS THE LOW
SLOWLY PULLS OFF TO THE NE. OVERNIGHT LOWS WILL BE TRICKY AS GRADUAL
CLEARING IS EXPECTED IN THE ATLANTA AREA... WHILE NORTH GA MAY STAY
CLOUDY. KEPT LOWS ABOVE FREEZING ALL ZONES TONIGHT... BUT FAR NORTH
GA SHOULD GET INTO THE MID 30S WHERE ANY LIGHT RAIN COULD POSSIBLY
GET MIXED WITH SOME FLURRIES... BUT NO ACCUMULATIONS ARE EXPECTED.
THE BETTER CHANCE FOR ANY WINTRY PRECIP WOULD BE TOMORROW NIGHT
ACROSS NORTH GA WHEN DEEPER WRAP AROUND MOISTURE GETS ENHANCED BY AN
UPPER DISTURBANCE TRAVERSING THRU THE BASE OF THE UPPER TROUGH TO
THE NORTH. HAVE MENTIONED RAIN OR SNOW WITH THIS DISTURBANCE
WEDNESDAY NIGHT. THE WESTERLY FLOW WILL ALLOW A NICE WARM-UP THROUGH
WEDNESDAY... WITH LOWS REMAINING ABOVE FREEZING FOR MOST AREAS
EXCEPT THE FAR NE GA ZONES WEDNESDAY NIGHT.

41

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
/ISSUED AT 333 PM EST TUE FEB 26 2013/
OVERALL...VERY FEW CHANGES MADE TO MOST OF THE EXTENDED. DID MAKE
UPDATES TO MOST ELEMENTS FOR PERIODS 4 AND 5 JUST TO REFRESH WITH
NEW DATA...THOUGH RESULTING CHANGES ARE SMALL. WEATHER WILL
CONTINUE TO BE DOMINATED BY STRONG MID-LEVEL LOW AND TROUGHING
OVER THE EAST COAST...WITH BRIEF NEAR-ZONAL FLOW TOWARD THE END OF
THE WORK WEEK BEFORE ANOTHER SHORTWAVE PUSHES IN FOR THE WEEKEND.
CONCERN REMAINS AMOUNT OF MOISTURE AVAILABLE TO SQUEEZE OUT IN
EITHER RAIN OR SNOW SHOWERS. THE MINOR CHANGES MADE TO TEMP GRIDS
BROUGHT SLIGHTLY COOLER MIN TEMPS FOR THE WEEKEND.

TDP

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 407 AM EST TUE FEB 26 2013/
LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY/...
NO SIGNIFICANT CHANGES MADE TO THE EXTENDED FORECAST TRENDS. MEDIUM
RANGE MODELS CONTINUE TO KEEP THE REGION UNDER A PERSISTENT UPPER
TROUGH THROUGH THE WEEKEND WITH A TIGHT SURFACE GRADIENT AND STOUT
LOW-LEVEL CAA. GFS FLIRTS WITH VERY LOW QPF IN THE FAR NORTH EACH DAY
THROUGH FRIDAY BEFORE BRINGING IN SLIGHTLY BETTER PRECIPITATION
CHANCES AND SLIGHTLY HIGHER QPF VALUES SATURDAY AS A SMALL BUT POTENT
SHORT WAVE SWEEPS THROUGH THE BROAD UPPER TROUGH. ECMWF KEEPS ANY
MEASURABLE QPF AMOUNTS GENERALLY NORTH OF THE STATE UNTIL THE SYSTEM
SWEEPS THROUGH SATURDAY. IN THE MEANTIME TEMPERATURES WILL CONTINUE
BELOW NORMAL WITH AT LEAST MIXED PRECIPITATION POSSIBLE IN THE FAR
NORTH WHERE ANY PRECIPITATION MANAGES TO MATERIALIZE. I HAVE CONFINED
POPS TO SLIGHT CHANCE ACROSS THE MOUNTAIN COUNTIES UNTIL SATURDAY...
WHEN I BUMP UP TO CHANCE POPS ACROSS THE FAR NORTH WITH SLIGHT CHANCE
AS FAR SOUTH AS THE ATLANTA METRO AND ATHENS. BOTH THE GFS AND ECMWF
STILL KEEP QPF AMOUNTS GENERALLY BELOW 1/10TH OF AN INCH PER 12 HOUR
PERIOD ON SATURDAY SO THIS CONTINUES TO BE A LOW QPF/LOW CONFIDENCE
FORECAST RIGHT NOW...ALTHOUGH CONFIDENCE IS INCREASING FOR THE
SATURDAY CHANCES. AFTER THE SHORT WAVE PASSES LATE SATURDAY...MODELS
ARE SHOWING THE LARGE UPPER TROUGH FINALLY SHIFTING EAST AS WELL.
THIS WOULD INDICATE A MAINLY DRY AND WARMING START TO NEXT WEEK.
