Area forecast discussion, Jul 20, 3:42 PM EDT, 2 hours 16 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PEACHTREE CITY GA
342 PM EDT SUN JUL 20 2014

.SHORT TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT/...
CURRENTLY... A WARM FRONT NEAR A NEWNAN TO SANDERSVILLE LINE IS
EXPECTED TO DRIFT JUST NORTH OF ATLANTA THIS AFTERNOON WHILE AN
UNSEASONABLE COOL WEDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE NOSES IN OVER MUCH OF NE
GA. A WATER VAPOR LOOP SHOWS A STRONG DISTURBANCE APPROACHING FROM
THE WEST AND SHOULD SPARK NUMEROUS SHOWERS WITH SCATTERED EMBEDDED
THUNDERSTORMS FOR AREAS ALONG AND SOUTH OF THE WARM FRONT WHERE THE
GREATER INSTABILITIES ARE NOTED. THE MAIN THUNDERSTORM THREAT WILL
LIKELY REMAIN SOUTH OF THE I-20 CORRIDOR THROUGH THE EVENING... WITH
MAINLY PATCHES OF LIGHT RAIN OR SPOTTY SHOWERS EXPECTED OVERNIGHT.
NO SEVERE STORMS ARE EXPECTED... BUT LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN CONTINUES TO
BE THE MAIN CONCERN THROUGH THE EVENING.

SHORT RANGE MODELS REMAIN IN GOOD AGREEMENT...AND SHOW THE UPPER
TROUGH TO THE WEST DEEPENING TONIGHT... THEN CUTTING OFF OVER AL/GA
ON MONDAY... AND SPINNING OVERHEAD MONDAY NIGHT. AS A RESULT...
EXPECT MOSTLY CLOUDY CONDITIONS TO PREVAIL WITH OCCASIONAL BREAKS
DURING AFTERNOON HEATING TODAY AND AGAIN ON MONDAY... ESPECIALLY
SOUTH OF THE WARM FRONT. AS THE UPPER TROUGH BEGINS TO CUT OFF
OVERHEAD MONDAY AFTERNOON... THE ASSOCIATED SURFACE LOW WILL DRIFT
NORTHWARD ALONG THE AL/GA LINE... SUGGESTING THE GREATER STORM
THREAT WILL BE GENERALLY ALONG AND SOUTH OF THE I-85 CORRIDOR MONDAY
AFTERNOON AND EVENING. HOWEVER... SHOULD SEE THE MORE WIDESPREAD
CONVECTIVE COVERAGE OVER SOUTH AND EAST CENTRAL GA WHERE THE ACTIVE
REGION OF THE UPPER TROUGH/LOW IS FOCUSED. THIS COUPLED WITH AMPLE
INSTABILITY AND DEEPER MOISTURE SUGGEST A FEW STORMS ACROSS CENTRAL
GA COULD BE STRONG MONDAY AFTERNOON... WITH MAYBE WIND GUSTS TO 40
MPH. HOWEVER... STILL NOT EXPECTING SEVERE STORMS ON MONDAY AS SHEAR
VALUES REMAIN WEAK WITH MODEST CAPE AT BEST DUE TO CLOUDY
CONDITIONS. THE GREATER CONCERN ON MONDAY CONTINUES TO BE LOCALLY
HEAVY RAIN AS TRAINING CONVECTION OVER AN ALREADY WET GROUND COULD
PUDDLE QUICKLY. SPC IS SHOWING ONLY A GENERAL THUNDER OUTLOOK FOR
THE AREA THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT. THE THUNDERSTORM TODAY AND AGAIN ON
MONDAY SHOULD GREATLY DIMINISH BY 9-10 PM.

AS FOR TEMPS...AMPLE CLOUDS AND CONTINUED RAIN POTENTIAL HAS
WARRANTED A LEAN TOWARD THE COOLER SIDE OF GUIDANCE FOR HIGHS AGAIN
ON MONDAY. LOWS TONIGHT WILL BE TRICKY AS A COOL WEDGE WILL TRY TO
NOSE BACK IN OVERNIGHT. WILL LEAN CLOSER TO WHAT WAS SEEN LAST
NIGHT. EXPECT WARMER LOWS MONDAY NIGHT AS THE WARM FRONT PUSHES
NORTH WITH THE SURFACE LOW.

39

.LONG TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
NO CHANGES MADE TO THE EXTENDED FORECAST. WET AND ACTIVE PERIOD
CONTINUES INTO THE EXTENDED PERIODS. HIGH PRESSURE RIDGE BUILDING
INTO THE CENTRAL U.S. STOPS SHORT OF THE MISSISSIPPI
RIVER...LEAVING THE SOUTHEAST TO BE INFLUENCED BY AMPLE MOISTURE
AND REMNANTS OF EARLIER WEEK SYSTEM WHICH A FEW MODELS DEPICT AS
AN UPPER LEVEL LOW. THIS COMBINATION WILL KEEP HIGHER THAN NORMAL
POPS ACROSS THE AREA THROUGH THE FIRST HALF OF THE WEEK. BY
THURSDAY...FRONT PUSHES INTO THE AREA...KEEPING RAIN CHANCES HIGH.
EXTENDED MODELS IN BETTER AGREEMENT WITH PUSHING THE TROUGH
SOUTHWARD...ALLOWING THE FRONT TO PUSH INTO SOUTH GEORGIA BY LATE
FRIDAY. WITH PREVAILING NORTHWEST FLOW ACROSS THE
REGION...EXTENDED MODELS ARE INDICATING A SERIES OF DISTURBANCES
TO IMPACT THE REGION THROUGH NEXT WEEKEND.

HAVE CONTINUED TO HIGHLIGHT THE DAYTIME PERIODS WITH THE BEST
CHANCES FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WITH THE DIURNAL ENHANCEMENT
OF CONVECTION. FOR NOW...INSTABILITIES ARE HIGH ENOUGH TO WARRANT
STRONG TO POTENTIAL A BRIEF SEVERE THUNDERSTORM EACH
AFTERNOON...BUT ON THE WHOLE THE MAIN CONCERN WILL BE LOCALLY
HEAVY RAIN. MODELED PWS THROUGH THE WEEK ARE AT 1.6 TO 2
INCHES...WELL ABOVE NORMAL. WITH BREAKS ANTICIPATED DURING THE
OVERNIGHT PERIOD...FLASH FLOOD POTENTIAL IS EXPECTED TO BE
ISOLATED/LOCALIZED.

HAVE CONTINUED WITH GENERALLY NORMAL TO SLIGHTLY BELOW NORMAL
TEMPERATURES THROUGH THE EXTENDED...ESPECIALLY WITH HIGHS AS AMPLE
CLOUD COVER AND CONVECTION LIMIT INSOLATION.

.AVIATION...
18Z UPDATE...
WARM FRONT JUST SOUTH OF ATL IS STILL EXPECTED TO DRIFT NORTH AND
ALLOW IFR/MVFR CIGS TO IMPROVE THROUGH THE AFTERNOON. THIS WILL
ALLOW CURRENT 6-8KT EASTERLY WINDS TO VEER MORE SSE THROUGH THE
AFTERNOON. AN UPPER DISTURBANCE WILL PRODUCE NUMEROUS SHOWERS WITH
SOME EMBEDDED THUNDERSTORMS THROUGH THE AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING.
THE GREATER COVERAGE OF CONVECTION SHOULD BE FROM ATL SOUTHWARD
THROUGH 00Z TODAY. EXPECT IFR CIGS TO SETTLE BACK IN TONIGHT AROUND
07-09Z AS A COOL EASTERLY FLOW SPREADS BACK INTO ATLANTA TAF SITES.
WARM SECTOR SPREADING BACK NORTH WILL ALLOW VFR CIGS BY 16-18Z MON.
