AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PEACHTREE CITY GA
924 PM EDT WED JUL 10 2013

.UPDATE...
MUCH OF AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING CONVECTION ACROSS CENTRAL GA
HAS WANED THOUGH A CLUSTER OF STRONG STORMS AHEAD OF AN UPPER
SHORTWAVE HAS PUSHED SOUTHWARD INTO NORTH GA AND MAY CONTINUE TO
POSE ADDITIONAL FLASH FLOODING THREATS. SHORT TERM HI-RES GUIDANCE
IN DECENT AGREEMENT WITH SHORTWAVE ACROSS TENNESSEE BRINGING
ENHANCED SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM POTENTIAL INTO NORTH GA NEAR 04-06Z
TONIGHT AS WELL...THOUGH MAY DECREASE IN COVERAGE BY THE TIME IT
GETS CLOSER TO THE ATLANTA METRO AREA. CONFIDENCE IS NOT VERY HIGH
THOUGH ON THIS AND COULD VERY WELL SEE SOME LINGERING DEVELOPMENT
THROUGH THE OVERNIGHT. REST OF FORECAST LOOKS TO BE ON TRACK AS
MOIST UNSTABLE ENVIRONMENT CONTINUES THURSDAY WITH SOME UPPER
LEVEL FORCING FOR ASCENT ALONG WAVE AS IT PUSHES SOUTHEASTWARD.
WILL CONTINUE TO KEEP CURRENT FLASH FLOOD WATCH GOING FOR PORTION
OF NORTHEAST AS SOME STORMS HAVE WARRANTED SEVERAL ISOLATED FLASH
FLOOD WARNINGS ALREADY THIS EVENING AND CANNOT RULE OUT MORE AS
CONVECTION CONTINUES TO MOVE INTO AREA. REST OF FORECAST LOOKS TO
BE ON TRACK AND SO HAVE MADE ONLY MINOR OTHER ADJUSTMENTS TO TEMP
AND DEWPT TRENDS TONIGHT DUE TO INFLUENCE OF CONVECTION. PREVIOUS
DISCUSSION FOLLOWS...

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 355 PM EDT WED JUL 10 2013/

.SHORT TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT/...
CURRENT RADAR LOOP SHOWS NUMEROUS SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS
THE AREA THIS AFTERNOON. AS FOR THE BIG PICTURE...THE LARGE UPPER
LEVEL HIGH PRESSURE RIDGE OVER THE PLAINS CONTINUES AND BEGINS TO
SHIFT A BIT EAST IN THE SHORT TERM. THERE IS ALSO ANOTHER WEAKER
UPPER RIDGE OUT OVER THE ATLANTIC WITH A WEAK TROF AND MOISTURE
PLUME WEDGED IN BETWEEN THE TWO RIDGES. THIS TROPICAL PLUME
CONTINUES TO PUMP MOISTURE ACROSS THE REGION. THE MAIN SURFACE COLD
FRONT NOW EXTENDING FROM THE CENTRAL GREAT LAKES STATES TO KS/CO
WILL CONTINUE MOVING SOUTHEAST AND PUSH INTO NW GA BY 00Z-06Z FRI.
THIS FRONT WILL BRING A BIT DRIER AIR MASS INTO NW GA FRI MORNING BUT
NOT SURE IF THAT FRONT WILL MOVE THAT FAR BY 12Z FRI. WILL DEFIANTLY
HAVE TO MONITOR ITS MOVEMENT. WITH INCREASED LIFT FROM THE
APPROACHING FRONT...MOISTURE INCREASING ACROSS THE AREA...AND
INCREASED INSTABILITY THU...EXPECT INCREASED COVERAGE AND INTENSITY
OF SHRA/TSRA DEVELOPMENT ACROSS THE REGION THURSDAY. CANNOT RULE OUT
STRONG TO ISOLATED SEVERE STORMS WITH DAMAGING WINDS AND POSSIBLY
LARGE HAIL. ANOTHER THING TO KEEP IN MIND...WITH THE SATURATED SOILS
AND A TONE OF DROUGHT STRICKEN TREES...IT WILL NOT TAKE SEVERE
WINDS...60MPH OR GREATER...TO KNOCK TREES DOWN.

01

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
NO MAJOR CHANGES WERE MADE TO THE EXTENDED AS MODELS CONTINUE TO
SHOW A WEAK FRONT STALLING ACROSS CENTRAL GA ON FRIDAY WITH SOME
DRIER AIR FILTERING INTO NORTH GA BEHIND THE FRONT. ADJUSTED
DAYTIME TEMPS UP A BIT NORTH OVER THE WEEKEND AS THE DRIER AIR
SHOULD RESULT IN MORE SUNSHINE AND LESS STORM COVERAGE THERE. THE
GREATER CHANCES FOR STORMS SHOULD REMAIN FOCUSED ALONG AND SOUTH
OF THE FRONT AND CURRENT FORECAST STILL HAS A GOOD HANDLE ON THIS.
THERE IS STILL MUCH UNCERTAINTY ON THE PATH AND POSSIBLE EFFECTS OF
T.S. CHANTAL OVER THE WEEKEND. THE LATEST FORECAST SUGGEST NORTH
AND CENTRAL GA WILL NOT BE EFFECTED BY THE STORM OVER THE
WEEKEND... BUT EARLY NEXT WEEK COULD SEE ADDITIONAL TROPICAL MOISTURE
SPREAD IN OVER THE AREA... AND CONTINUE THE WET PATTERN INTO MID
NEXT WEEK.

39

PREV LONG TERM DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 357 AM EDT WED JUL 10 2013/

LONG TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
STALLED FRONTAL BOUNDARY STILL SITUATED ACROSS CENTRAL/SOUTH
PORTIONS OF THE CWFA ON FRIDAY. SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ARE
EXPECTED TO DEVELOP ALONG AND AHEAD OF THE BOUNDARY...ESPECIALLY
DURING PEAK HEATING. THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE CAPABLE OF PRODUCING
HEAVY RAINFALL THAT COULD LEAD TO LOCALIZED FLOODING OF ALREADY
SATURATED SOILS. MODELS HAVE THE FRONT BECOMING NEARLY DIFFUSE
ACROSS SOUTH CENTRAL GA ON SATURDAY...BUT THE BOUNDARY COULD STILL
PROVIDE SOME FOCUS FOR CONVECTIVE ACTIVITY MAINLY ACROSS THE
SOUTHERN ZONES.

FORECAST FOR THE LATE WEEKEND INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK WILL DEPEND
HEAVILY UPON THE TRACK OF CHANTAL. THE EXACT MOVEMENT OF CHANTAL
WILL BE INFLUENCED BY THE WEAK FRONTAL BOUNDARY AND RIDGING BUILDING
IN ALONG THE SPINE OF THE APPALACHIANS. ALL INTERESTS IN GA SHOULD
MONITOR THE FORECAST FOR T.S. CHANTAL OVER THE WEEKEND. PLEASE REFER
TO NHC FOR THE LATEST TRACK GUIDANCE.

.HYDROLOGY...
THE FLASH FLOOD WATCH OVER PORTIONS OF EAST CENTRAL GEORGIA FROM
2 PM TODAY UNTIL 2 AM TONIGHT WILL BE ALLOWED CONTINUE AS THIS
AREA HAS SEEN SO MUCH RAINFALL THE PAST FEW DAYS THAT FLASH FLOOD
GUIDANCE IS ESPECIALLY LOW... AND AN INCH OR SO OF RAINFALL IN A
SHORT TIME COULD LEAD TO FLOODING. THE WET PATTERN WILL CONTINUE
ON THURSDAY AS A FRONTAL BOUNDARY PUSHES INTO THE TN VALLEY...
THEN INTO NORTH GA THURSDAY EVENING. ABUNDANT MOISTURE AHEAD OF
THE FRONT WILL ALLOW A VERY WET PATTERN TO CONTINUE. AS A
RESULT... A LARGER- SCALE FLOOD THREAT IS POSSIBLE FOR THURSDAY
AFTERNOON AND EVENING... AND A FLOOD WATCH MAY BE NECESSARY FOR A
MUCH LARGER AREA... DEPENDING ON THE COVERAGE OF STORMS AND RAINFALL
AMOUNTS THAT OCCUR THIS AFTERNOON AND OVERNIGHT. WILL LET THE
MIDNIGHT SHIFT ADDRESS THIS POTENTIAL AND POST A FLASH FLOOD WATCH
IF CONDITIONS AND EXPECTED RAINFALL AMOUNTS WARRANT. 39

&&

.AVIATION...
00Z UPDATE...
VFR CONDITIONS TONIGHT WITH 4 KFT CIGS RAISING TO NEAR 8
KFT...THEN MVFR TO LOW END VFR CIGS THURSDAY AFTER 11Z AND
POSSIBLY LOWER VSBYS WITH ANY STORM DEVELOPMENT. MOST DEVELOPMENT
SHOULD BE DIMINISHING THIS EVENING THOUGH AN ISOLATED SHOWER OR
THUNDERSTORM CANNOT BE RULED OUT. A WAVE APPROACHING THE NORTHERN
SITES NEAR 06Z TONIGHT MAY BRING AN ENHANCED CHANCE FOR
DEVELOPMENT THOUGH CONFIDENCE IS LOW ON THIS RIGHT NOW AND WILL
LEAVE OUT OF TAF FOR TIME BEING. BEST CHANCE FOR TSRA LOOKS TO BE
AFTER 19Z THURSDAY. WINDS STAYING MAINLY SW TO NW AT 7 KTS OR LESS
WITH VRB GUSTS POSSIBLE IN ANY STORM DEVELOPMENT.

//ATL CONFIDENCE...00Z UPDATE...
MEDIUM CONFIDENCE ON CIGS AND TIMING OF PRECIP.
HIGH CONFIDENCE ALL ELSE.

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

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

...FLASH FLOOD WATCH IN EFFECT FOR PARTS OF EAST CENTRAL GEORGIA...

AMPLE MOISTURE AND DAYTIME HEATING WILL RESULT IN SCATTERED SHOWERS
AND THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE STATE THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING. THE
GROUND IS SATURATED AND ADDITIONAL HEAVY RAIN COULD LEAD TO FLOODING
OR FLASH FLOODING. RESIDENTS ARE URGED NOT TO LET THEIR GUARD DOWN
DURING THIS PROLONGED CONVECTIVE LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL PERIOD.

WEATHER HAZARDS EXPECTED...

PERIODS OF MODERATE TO LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL THIS AFTERNOON AND
EVENING MAY LEAD TO ADDITIONAL FLASH FLOODING AND RIVER
FLOODING...ESPECIALLY ACROSS EAST CENTRAL GEORGIA WHERE HEAVY
RAINS HAVE FALLEN FOR THE LAST FEW DAYS. RAINFALL AMOUNTS
AVERAGING AROUND HALF AN INCH CAN BE EXPECTED ACROSS THE
AREA...WITH LOCALLY HIGHER AMOUNTS POSSIBLE. WHILE THIS AMOUNT OF
RAIN IS NOT PARTICULARLY HIGH... SOILS ARE EXTREMELY SATURATED AND
RIVER LEVELS ARE HIGH...THUS IT WILL NOT TAKE MUCH TO PRODUCE
ADDITIONAL FLOODING.

THUNDERSTORMS WILL PRODUCE OCCASIONAL LIGHTNING... WIND GUSTS TO 45
MPH AND POSSIBLY SOME SMALL HAIL. WITH SATURATED SOILS...IT WILL NOT
TAKE MUCH WIND TO DOWN TREES.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY...

ALTHOUGH THE RAINFALL THROUGH THE WEEK AND INTO THIS WEEKEND WILL
NOT BE AS PROLONGED OR WIDESPREAD AS WHAT WE SAW LAST WEEK...THERE
WILL STILL BE PERIODS OF MODERATE TO HEAVY RAINFALL IN SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS. THIS IS ESPECIALLY THE CASE THURSDAY AND FRIDAY AS
A FRONT MOVES INTO THE STATE. NORTH GEORGIA WILL AGAIN HAVE THE
BEST CHANCES FOR ADDITIONAL RAINFALL AND THERE IS SOME CONCERN
THAT ACCUMULATING HIGH RAINFALL TOTALS MAY LEAD TO MORE
SIGNIFICANT FLOODING ACROSS THE AREA. PERSONS PLANNING OUTDOOR
ACTIVITIES FOR THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS SHOULD MONITOR THE LATEST
FORECASTS.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

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