AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PEACHTREE CITY GA
325 PM EDT MON AUG 12 2013

.SHORT TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT/...
UPPER HIGH REMAINS IN PLACE OVER THE SOUTHEAST...WHILE AN UPPER LOW
REMAINS OVER SOUTHEAST CANADA. AS THE SHORT TERM PROGRESSES...A
SHORTWAVE ROUNDING THE BASE OF THE LOW WILL DEEPEN THE TROUGH...
FORCING THE UPPER HIGH TO RETROGRADE BACK TOWARD TE SOUTHERN PLAINS.
AS THE UPPER TROUGH DEEPENS...IT WILL PUSH A FRONT AHEAD OF IT INTO
THE SOUTHEAST...MAKING IT INTO CENTRAL GEORGIA BY THE END OF THE
SHORT TERM. SYNOPTIC GUIDANCE IS IN REASONABLE AGREEMENT...THOUGH
THE NAM IS ON THE STRONG SIDE OF SOLUTIONS. GFS AND ECMWF PRETTY
CLOSE WITH THE EXCEPTION OF SOME CONVECTIVE FEEDBACK ON THE GFS.

WITH PW VALUES REMAINING NEAR 2 INCHES AND WITH VERY WEAK WESTERLY
FLOW ALOFT...SCATTERED TO WIDESPREAD CONVECTION WILL CONTINUE THIS
AFTERNOON AND EVENING...FORCED MAINLY BY DIURNAL HEATING AND WEAK
RIPPLES IN THE FLOW ALOFT. SHOULD SEE A DIURNAL LULL TONIGHT BUT AS
THE SURFACE FRONT APPROACHES SHOULD SEE AN INCREASE IN ACTIVITY
TUESDAY MORNING. AS HAS BEEN THE CASE THE PAST SEVERAL DAYS...MAIN
THREAT BOTH WITH TONIGHT AND TOMORROW WILL BE BRIEF HEAVY RAIN AND
OF COURSE OCCASIONAL LIGHTNING. LUCKILY THERE IS ENOUGH FLOW ALOFT
TO KEEP STORMS MOVING...ALBEIT SLOWLY...BUT THERE IS ALWAYS THE
POSSIBILITY THAT A STORM MAY GET STUCK ON TERRAIN. HOWEVER...WITH
THE FRONT IN THE VICINITY ON TUESDAY ISOLATED DAMAGING WIND GUSTS
CANNOT BE RULED OUT.

TOOK A BIAS-CORRECTED BLEND FOR TEMPERATURES WITH ONLY MINOR
ADJUSTMENTS. HIGHS TOMORROW SHOULD BE COOLER THAN TODAY BUT THEN
AGAIN THAT MAY DEPEND ON HOW MUCH IT RAINS THIS AFTERNOON...WHICH
WOULD OF COURSE KEEP TEMPS DOWN. IN ANY CASE...FOR THE MOST PART
THROUGH THE SHORT TERM TEMPS SHOULD BE AT TO JUST SLIGHTLY BELOW
NORMAL...WITH THE BEGINNING OF A COOLING TREND TOWARD THE END OF THE
PERIOD.

AS THE DEEP UPPER TROUGH DIGS TOWARD THE EASTERN SEABOARD...HIGH
PRESSURE WILL BUILD IN BEHIND THE FRONT. THIS IS JUST BARELY HINTED
AT WITH SLOWLY LOWERING DEWPOINTS LATE IN THE PERIOD AND COOLER LOWS
FOR TUESDAY NIGHT...BUT MORE IMPORTANTLY WITH THE CONFLUENT FLOW
ALOFT...ONCE THE APPROACHING HIGH CLEARS THE APPALACHIANS...IT WILL
BEGIN TO RIDGE DOWN THE EASTERN SEABOARD IN A HYBRID CAD SETUP.
AGAIN...THROUGH THE SHORT TERM WE SEE ONLY THE BEGINNING HINTS OF
THIS...BUT WITH SIGNIFICANT IMPACTS INTO THE EXTENDED.

TDP

.LONG TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY/...
SOME TWEAKS MADE TO POPS TO ACCOUNT FOR BETTER POSSIBILITY OF
CONVECTION CLOSER TO FRONT WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY.
OTHERWISE CURRENT EXTENDED FORECASTS LOOK ON TRACK.

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 406 AM EDT MON AUG 12 2013/
LONG TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY/...
GFS AND ECMWF MODELS ARE IN GENERAL AGREEMENT THROUGH THE
EXTENDED FORECAST PERIOD. A COLD FRONT FROM THE MID ATLANTIC
STATES THROUGH THE TN VALLEY SHOULD GRADUALLY MOVE SOUTH INTO GA
WEDNESDAY THROUGH THURSDAY. THE VERY MOIST TROPICAL AIRMASS OVER
GA...PWS AROUND 2 INCHES...WILL COMBINE WITH A SERIES OF UPPER
LEVEL DISTURBANCES MOVING OVER AND PARALLEL TO THE FRONTAL
BOUNDARY TO PRODUCE SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS THUNDERSTORMS. A BROAD
UPPER LEVEL TROUGH OVER THE GREAT LAKES REGION IS EXPECTED TO
DEEPEN OVER THE MS RIVER VALLEY THURSDAY THROUGH SUNDAY. AS THIS
OCCURS THE SURFACE FRONT SHOULD REMAIN NEARLY STATIONARY OVER
SOUTH GA. THE CLOUDY AND WET PATTERN SHOULD CONTINUE WITH SHOWERS
AND THUNDERSTORMS LIKELY OVER THE STATE THURSDAY THROUGH SUNDAY.
SIGNIFICANT QPF AMOUNTS UP TO 3 INCHES CAN BE EXPECTED OVER
CENTRAL GA DURING THE END OF THE WEEK WITH AROUND 1 INCH OVER
NORTH GA. NEAR SEASONAL TEMPERATURES ON WEDNESDAY WILL LOWER 5 TO
10 DEGREES BELOW NORMAL DURING THE DAY THURSDAY THROUGH SUNDAY DUE
TO CLOUDS AND RAIN.
