AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PEACHTREE CITY GA
135 PM EDT WED JUN 24 2015
.SHORT TERM /TODAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
REMNANTS OF A CONVECTIVE COMPLEX CONTINUE TO DRIFT SOUTH FROM
TN INTO AL AND MS. SEVERAL BOUNDARIES ASSOCIATED WITH THIS FEATURE
WILL PROBABLY AFFECT THE FORECAST AREA TODAY. SHOWERS AND A FEW
THUNDERSTORMS HAVE ALREADY DEVELOPED OVER THE SOUTHERN COUNTIES IN
THE FORECAST AREA. HAVE INCLUDED POPS AREA WIDE THROUGH THE DAY WITH
BETTER CHANCES FOR CENTRAL ZONES THIS MORNING. HAVE LEFT SLIGHT
CHANCE MOST AREAS OVERNIGHT TONIGHT SINCE CONVECTION HAS BEEN
LINGERING. A WEAK FRONTAL BOUNDARY VICINITY OF NORTH GA AND THE
SOUTHERN APPALACHIANS MAY STALL IN THAT AREA FOR THE REMAINDER OF
THE SHORT TERM. SO FOR THURSDAY...HAVE CONTINUED WITH CHANCE POPS
FOR THE ENTIRE AREA.
THE UPPER RIDGE WILL PERSIST THROUGH THE SHORT TERM AND HOT
TEMPERATURES ARE EXPECTED AGAIN TODAY AND THURSDAY. SOME INCREASE IN
CLOUDS AND CONVECTION MAY MODIFY SOME AREAS A BIT...HOWEVER HEAT
INDEX VALUES STILL EXPECTED TO REACH ADVISORY CRITERIA MAINLY
CENTRAL ZONES AND THE HEAT ADVISORY WILL REMAIN IN PLACE.
41
&&
.LONG TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY/...
GUIDANCE IN FAIRLY DECENT CONSENSUS WITH THE FORECAST AS WE SHIFT
INTO A MORE ACTIVE PATTERN WITH THE LONG AWAITED RETURN OF THE UPPER
TROUGH...PROGGED TO DIG AND AMPLIFY INTO THE SOUTHEAST STARTING
FRIDAY. WHILE IT IS A WELCOMED CHANGE FOR COOLER TEMPS...IT WILL
HAVE TO COME WITH A SIDE EFFECT OF MORE ACTIVE PRECIP POTENTIAL AS
WE BECOME SUSCEPTIBLE FOR DISTURBANCES TRACKING ALONG THE UPPER
FLOW. THE FIRST OF WHICH PHASES WITH AN ENHANCED MOISTURE FIELD FROM
THE SOUTH AND SHOULD BRING LIKELY CHANCES OF SHOWERS AND STORMS FOR
FRIDAY. QUICKLY ON THE HEELS OF THIS...MODELS INDICATE A COLD FRONT
PASSAGE PROGGED TO PUSH ACROSS THE CWA SATURDAY AFTERNOON INTO
OVERNIGHT. WHILE GUIDANCE HAS SOME SUBTLE DISCREPANCIES ON STRENGTH
AND TIMING OF THIS...IT IS STILL RATHER ROBUST FOR THIS TIME OF YEAR
AND BRINGS SOME MARGINAL ENVIRONMENTAL SHEAR...THEREFORE HAS
POTENTIAL OF MORE ORGANIZED STORM MODES. HAVE GONE LIKELY POPS AREA
WIDE FOR SATURDAY WITH EVEN SOME CATEGORICAL POPS IN THE NORTH.
STORM TOTAL QPF FROM THE FRIDAY THRU EARLY SUNDAY PERIOD RESULT IN
UPWARDS OF 2 INCHES FOR THE FAR NORTH TO NEAR 1 INCH IN CENTRAL
GA...THOUGH HIGHER LOCALIZED AMOUNTS WILL LIKELY BE THE CASE.
POST-FRONTAL SUNDAY SHOULD HAVE TEMPS FEELING DOWNRIGHT PLEASANT
COMPARED TO WHAT WE HAVE HAD TO DEAL WITH THE LAST FEW WEEKS AND
MOST LOCATIONS SHOULD BE IN THE LOW TO MID 80S...ABOUT 5 DEGREES
BELOW CLIMO. AS THE FRONT PUSHES SOUTHEAST OF THE AREA...THERE
SHOULD BE A BREAK IN POPS THOUGH THE UPPER TROUGH AXIS STAYS WEST OF
THE AREA AND MODELS REALLY START TO DIVERGE IN THE EVOLUTION OF
ADDITIONAL DISTURBANCES TRAVERSING THE FLOW GOING INTO EARLY NEXT
WEEK. CANNOT RULE OUT A ROGUE MCS OR TWO POSSIBLY COMING ACROSS
THE TENNESSEE VALLEY OR MORE FOCUSED ROUNDS OF CONVECTION ANYTIME
AFTER MONDAY. TO DIFFICULT TO PIN DOWN ATTM FOR GREATER THAN LOW
END CHANCE POPS.
