What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this river flood warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS Atlanta, GA wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at Dec 29, 6:40 PM EST, 1 hour 53 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Dec 29, 6:40 PM EST, 1 hour 53 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED FOR AVIATION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PEACHTREE CITY GA
640 PM EST TUE DEC 29 2015

.SHORT TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT/...
STATIONARY FRONTAL BOUNDARY REMAINS POSITIONED ACROSS CENTRAL
GEORGIA THIS AFTERNOON. LUCKILY...MOST OF TODAY HAS BEEN DRY.
REGIONAL RADAR HAS PICKED UP A FEW LIGHT SHOWERS ACROSS THE FAR SE
CWFA...BUT TOTAL QPF HAS BEEN VERY LIGHT.

A WAVE OF LOW PRESSURE ACROSS THE WESTERN GULF OF MEXICO WILL MOVE
NORTHEAST ALONG THE BOUNDARY OVERNIGHT AND WEDNESDAY. ACCOMPANYING
THIS LOW WILL BE ANOTHER ROUND OF WIDESPREAD SHOWERS AND ISOLATED
THUNDERSTORMS. THERE IS A FEW HUNDRED JOULES OF CAPE
PRESENT...MAINLY ALONG AND SOUTH OF THE INTERSTATE 85 CORRIDOR. WILL
KEEP THE THUNDER IN MAINLY AFTER 06Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH EARLY
THURSDAY MORNING. EVEN THOUGH SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ARE NOT
ANTICIPATED...SUB SEVERE STORM WINDS WILL BE CAPABLE OF UPROOTING
TREES DUE TO THE SATURATED SOILS.

THE MAIN HAZARD ASSOCIATED WITH THIS SYSTEM WILL BE THE LOCALLY
HEAVY RAINFALL. IN GENERAL...ONE TO THREE INCHES OF RAINFALL IS
ANTICIPATED ALONG AND SOUTH OF THE INTERSTATE 85 CORRIDOR. LOCALLY
HIGHER AMOUNTS ARE POSSIBLE WHERE STORMS REPEATEDLY TRAIN. EVEN
THOUGH AMOUNTS ARE NOT LARGE THROUGH FRIDAY...THE SOILS ARE
SATURATED AND ANY ADDITIONAL RAINS WILL CREATE RUN-OFF. IN
ADDITION...SEVERAL CREEKS/STREAMS/RIVERS REMAIN ABOVE FLOOD STAGE
AND THE ADDITIONAL RAINS WILL PROLONG THE ONGOING ISSUES.  HAVE
EXTENDED THE FLOOD WATCH TO THE ENTIRE CWFA.

HI-RES MODELS ARE PROGGING THE AXIS OF LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL TO
DEVELOP ALONG THE INTERSTATE 85 CORRIDOR AFTER 06Z WEDNESDAY...AND
THEN SHIFT SOUTHWARD THROUGH THE DAY. FROM RUN TO RUN...THE AXIS HAS
SHIFTED SOUTHWARD.

NLISTEMAA

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
NO MAJOR CHANGES MADE TO THE EXTENDED FORECAST. THE GFS/ECMWF ARE
IN PRETTY GOOD AGREEMENT FOR THE LONG TERM. THE UPPER FLOW REMAINS
WEST SOUTHWEST WITH A SECONDARY DISTURBANCE MOVING ALONG THE GULF
COAST FRIDAY. MODELS DIFFER IN THE NORTHWARD EXTENT OF THE
MOISTURE ON FRIDAY WITH THE GFS THE FURTHEST NORTH. WILL CONTINUE
WITH CONSISTENCY AND LEAN TOWARD THE ECMWF SOLUTION WHICH BRINGS A
CHANCE OF SHOWERS TO PARTS OF CENTRAL GA. THE CWA DRIES OUT FOR
THE WEEKEND AS CANADIAN HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS INTO THE CWA. THIS
WILL ALSO BRING OUR TEMPS NEAR NORMAL...SOMETHING WE HAVENT SEEN
IN A WHILE. THE MORE SEASONAL WEATHER WILL LAST INTO EARLY NEXT
WEEK.
