AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PEACHTREE CITY GA
1247 PM EST FRI NOV 13 2015

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 946 AM EST FRI NOV 13 2015/

UPDATE...
HIGH PRESSURE WILL CONTINUE ACROSS THE REGION THROUGH TONIGHT.
WINDS WILL REMAIN GUSTY THROUGH THE AFTERNOON. ONLY MADE A FEW
TWEAKS TO THE SKY GRIDS TO ACCOUNT FOR THE CIRRUS COMING IN FROM
THE SW.

WILL NOT BE MAKING ANY CHANGES TO THE FREEZE WATCH HEADLINE AT
THIS TIME. WOULD LIKE TO SEE THE 12Z GUIDANCE COME IN TO GET A
LOOK AT THE TRENDS. PLUS...ALSO CONCERNED ABOUT THE CIRRUS COMING
IN FROM THE SW AND THE WIND STAYING UP.

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 627 AM EST FRI NOV 13 2015/

.FREEZE WATCH IN EFFECT SATURDAY MORNING FOR PARTS OF NORTH
GEORGIA...

UPDATE...
/ISSUED AT 449 AM EST FRI NOV 13 2015/
DECIDED TO PLAY IT SAFE AND EXPAND THE FREEZE WATCH TO INCLUDE
AREAS OF NORTH GEORGIA GENERALLY ALONG AND NORTH OF A ROME TO
CANTON TO CLEVELAND LINE. STILL HAVE SOME UNCERTAINTY THAT WINDS
WILL LAY DOWN ENOUGH TO ALLOW MORE WIDESPREAD FREEZING TEMPS
AND/OR FROST... BUT TEMPS ARE CLOSE ENOUGH TO WARRANT AT LEAST A
WATCH ACROSS THIS AREA. /39

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 402 AM EST FRI NOV 13 2015/

SHORT TERM /TODAY THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/...
LATEST SURFACE ANALYSIS SHOWS A WEAKENING COLD FRONT ALONG THE
GEORGIA COAST... A LARGE DOME OF HIGH PRESSURE CENTERED OVER THE
CENTRAL PLAINS AND DRIFTING EAST... AND AN EXITING LOW PRESSURE
SYSTEM NOW WELL NORTHEAST OF THE GREAT LAKES REGION. THE RESULTING
PRESSURE GRADIENT IS PRODUCING A BRISK NORTHWEST WIND THIS
MORNING... AND THESE WINDS WILL INCREASE AND BECOME RATHER GUSTY BY
MID TO LATE THIS MORNING. THE DRY/COOL DOME OF HIGH PRESSURE
BUILDING OVER THE AREA WILL RESULT IN A RAIN FREE FORECAST... WITH A
NEAR ZONAL FLOW ALOFT EXPECTED TO SPREAD SCATTERED TO OCCASIONALLY
BROKEN HIGH CLOUDS ACROSS THE AREA THROUGH THE WEEKEND.

THE COOL DOME OF HIGH PRESSURE WILL BRING COOLER THAN NORMAL
TEMPERATURES TO THE REGION... WITH LOWS TONIGHT AND SATURDAY NIGHT
RUNNING FROM 5 TO 8 DEGREES COLDER THAN NORMAL FOR ALL AREAS.
ALTHOUGH NO RECORD LOWS WILL BE BROKEN... THERE WILL BE A THREAT OF
FREEZING TEMPERATURES ACROSS PARTS OF NORTH GEORGIA TONIGHT AND
AGAIN SATURDAY NIGHT... ALONG WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR PATCHY TO
MORE WIDESPREAD AREAS OF FROST.

STILL SOME UNCERTAINTY WITH THE WIDESPREAD FROST THREAT FOR TONIGHT
AS MODELS CONTINUE TO SHOW 15-30KTS OF WIND AT 2500 FEET WHICH WOULD
RESULT IN SUFFICIENT MIXING TO HINDER FROST DEVELOPMENT. HOWEVER...
MOS GUIDANCES HAVE CONSISTENTLY SHOWN SPOTTY FREEZING TEMPS IN THE
NORTH GEORGIA MOUNTAINS... AND THINK THIS THREAT WILL BE GREATEST
TONIGHT IN THE PROTECTED VALLEYS. THEREFORE... HAVE DECIDED TO POST
A FREEZE WATCH FROM 1 AM TO 9 AM SATURDAY MORNING FOR MAINLY THE
PROTECTED AREAS ALONG AND NORTH OF A CHATSWORTH TO DAHLONEGA TO
CLEVELAND LINE. THE DAYSHIFT CAN FINE TUNE THIS THREAT WITH A FREEZE
WARNING LATER TODAY WHEN THE NEW MOS GUIDANCE NUMBERS COME OUT.

THINK THE GREATER FREEZE AND MORE WIDESPREAD FROST THREAT WILL BE
SATURDAY NIGHT-SUNDAY MORNING... SO STAY TUNED FOR ADDITIONAL
WATCHES/WARNINGS AND/OR ADVISORIES FOR THIS PERIOD WITH LATER
FORECAST.

39

LONG TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE AREA TO START THE EXTENDED FORECAST BUT
THINGS CHANGE AT THE END AS A FRONTAL SYSTEM NEARS THE AREA.
THE MODELS START OFF IN VERY GOOD AGREEMENT AND THEY STAY IN GOOD
AGREEMENT THROUGH DAY SEVEN BUT THERE ARE SOME MINOR DIFFERENCES
IN THE TIMING OF THE NEXT FRONTAL SYSTEM. THE MODELS START OFF
WITH THE HIGH PRESSURE RIDGE CENTERED OVER THE MID ATLANTIC/NEW
ENGLAND STATES WITH THIS RIDGE AXIS NOSING DOWN THE EASTERN
SEABOARD. AS THE FRONTAL SYSTEM MOVES INTO THE MS RIVER VALLEY THE
RIDGE KEEPS THE MAIN FRONTAL SYSTEM FROM TO FAR EAST TO FAST. FOR
THE FORECAST WE ARE STILL LEANING TOWARD THE ECMWF WHICH IS A BIT
FASTER AND BRINGS IN A BIT MORE MOISTURE BEGINNING TUES AS THE
SOUTHEASTERLY FLOW SETS UP. CURRENTLY MY CONFIDENCE IS FAIRLY LOW
AS TO WHEN THE ACTUAL FRONT WILL MAKE IT INTO WESTERN GA BUT I AM
CONFIDENCE THAT IT WILL MAKE ITS WAY IN SOMETIME BETWEEN 00Z THU
AND 00Z FRI. THERE IS ALSO A SMALL THREAT FOR SOME POSSIBLE SEVER
WEATHER WED INTO THU WITH A LOW CAPE HIGH SHEER ENVIRONMENT
FORMING JUST AHEAD OF THE MAIN FRONTAL SYSTEM. SHOULD BE ABLE TO
GET A BETTER HANDLE ON TIMING AS THE SYSTEM NEARS BUT FOR NOW WILL
AVE TO STICK WITH A 24 HOUR DIFFERENCE.
