302 AM EST SAT DEC 26 2015

.SHORT TERM /TODAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
LATEST GUIDANCE INDICATES A LULL IN THE RAIN FOR THE SHORT TERM.
ALTHOUGH THE MAIN LIFTING MECHANISM HAS SHIFTED NORTH AND WEST OF
THE CWA...WILL MAINTAIN POPS THROUGHOUT THE SHORT TERM WITH THE
HIGHEST POPS ACROSS NORTH GA AS ABUNDANT LOW LEVEL MOISTURE WILL
REMAIN OVER THE CWA AND SURFACE HEATING MAY BE ENOUGH TO INITIATE
CONVECTION. THE THREAT OF HEAVY RAIN APPEARS TO BE SUBSIDING FOR
THE WATCH AREA. THE EXCEPTION FOR EARLY THIS MORNING WILL BE
EXTREME NORTHWEST GA AS TSTORMS OVER NORTH AL WILL MOVE ACROSS THE
EXTREME NORTHWEST GA COUNTIES. HOWEVER THESE SHOULD BE OUT OF THE
AREA BY 12Z WHICH IS WHEN THE FLOOD WATCH EXPIRES. WILL THEREFORE
ALLOW THE FLOOD WATCH TO EXPIRE.

A LITTLE MORE SUNSHINE ON SUNDAY COULD ALLOW FOR A LITTLE MORE
CONVECTION AND HAVE GONE SLIGHTLY HIGHER POPS ON SUNDAY THAN
TODAY.

TEMPERATURES WILL REMAIN WELL ABOVE NORMAL THROUGH SUNDAY AND
GUIDANCE LOOKS LIKE IT MAY HAVE A HANDLE ON THIS.

17

.LONG TERM /SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY/...
THE NEXT SYSTEM STILL AIMING AT THE BEGINNING OF THE
WEEK...ALTHOUGH THERE ARE TIMING DIFFERENCES IN THE MODELS WITH
THE GFS BEING THE FASTEST. HAVE MAINTAINED LIKELY/CATEGORICAL POPS
ACROSS MAINLY NORTH GA MONDAY/MONDAY NIGHT. THERE SHOULD BE A
BRIEF BREAK IN THE RAIN...THEN THE NEXT KICKER WAVE WILL BRING
ANOTHER ROUND OF RAIN BY MID WEEK. THIS IS SHAPING UP TO BE THE
WAVE THAT WILL BRING MORE SEASONABLE TEMPS BACK TO THE CWA BY THE
END OF THE LONG TERM.
