727 PM EST FRI DEC 25 2015

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 256 PM EST FRI DEC 25 2015/

SHORT TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/...

PREVIOUSLY ANTICIPATED TRENDS HAVE EVOLVED TODAY AS THE AXIS OF
BETTER MOISTURE AND PRECIPITATION HAVE SHIFTED NORTH. STILL HAVE A
GOOD-SIZED AREA OF PERSISTENT MODERATE TO HEAVY RAINFALL ACROSS THE
FAR NORTH...BUT THIS IS EXPECTED TO DIMINISH THROUGH THE EVENING AND
SHIFT NORTH AS THE UPPER RIDGE BULGES BACK INTO THE REGION THROUGH
SATURDAY NIGHT.

20

&&

.HYDROLOGY...

THIS HAS BEEN...AND CONTINUES TO BE...A LONG-DURATION AND COMPLEX
HEAVY RAIN EVENT. SOME RIVERS AND STREAMS MAY TAKE SEVERAL DAYS TO
RESPOND AND CONTINUE TO FLOOD EVEN AFTER THE HEAVY RAIN ENDS...OTHERS
WILL FLOOD MORE QUICKLY. FOR THESE REASONS I HAVE EXTENDED THE FLOOD
WATCH FOR THE ENTIRE AREA...EVEN AREAS WHERE LITTLE OR NO ADDITIONAL
HEAVY RAIN IS ANTICIPATED...SINCE RIVERS CONTINUE TO RISE IN ALL
AREAS.

.LONG TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...

MADE MINIMAL CHANGES IN THE LONG TERM FORECAST GRIDS. PLEASE SEE THE
PREVIOUS LONG TERM FORECAST DISCUSSION BELOW.

PREVIOUS LONG TERM FORECAST DISCUSSION/SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH
THURSDAY/...

MODELS IN GENERAL AGREEMENT FOR THE LONG TERM. STRONG LOW PRESSURE
DEVELOPING THE THE WESTERN GULF FORECAST TO MOVE NORTHEAST INTO
THE MID MS VALLEY BY THE FIRST OF THE WEEK...CONTINUING INTO THE
GREAT LAKES BY MID WEEK. THIS SHOULD EVENTUALLY PUSH A COLD FRONT
INTO CENTRAL GA BY EARLY TUESDAY WITH SOME DRYING MAINLY NORTH.
HOWEVER MOISTURE RETURNS BY THE END OF THE PERIOD AS THE STALLED
FRONT BEGINS TO DRIFT BACK NORTH. SOME COOLER TEMPERATURES IN
STORE TOWARD THE END OF THE PERIOD.

LINGER INTO LATE EVENING. WINDS SHOULD RETURN TO SE FOR MAJORITY
OF PERIOD AT 10 KTS OR LESS. CIGS BACK TO MVFR OR LOWER AGAIN
SATURDAY EVENING WITH POSSIBLE SCATTERING/LIFTING IN THE AFTERNOON
BUT WILL KEEP BKN FOR NOW.
