AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PEACHTREE CITY GA
802 PM EDT FRI JUN 26 2015

.UPDATE...
HAVE UPDATED POPS TO REFLECT CURRENT RADAR TRENDS.
HOWEVER...ADDITIONAL STORMS ARE POSSIBLE OVERNIGHT AS A COLD FRONT
APPROACHES FROM THE NW. THE HI-RES MODELS ARE PRODUCING A COUPLE
OF QUIET HOURS BEFORE THE FRONTAL CONVECTION ENCROACHES UPON THE
NW CORNER OF THE CWFA.

WILL ALSO TWEAK THE HOURLY TEMP AND DEWPOINT GRIDS.

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 727 PM EDT FRI JUN 26 2015/

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 341 PM EDT FRI JUN 26 2015/

SHORT TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/...
THE SHORT AND MID RANGE MODELS CONTINUE TO SHOW GOOD AGREEMENT WITH
AN UPPER TROUGH... CURRENTLY DEVELOPING JUST WEST OF THE UPPER
MISSISSIPPI VALLEY REGION... DEEPENING AND LIFTING EASTWARD ACROSS
THE OHIO AND TENNESSEE VALLEYS ON SATURDAY. THIS WILL DRAG A COLD
FRONT INTO NORTH GEORGIA BY EARLY SATURDAY AFTERNOON... THEN ACROSS
MUCH OF CENTRAL GEORGIA SATURDAY NIGHT. A SERIES OF DISTURBANCES
TRAVERSING THE DEEPENING LONG WAVE TROUGH DURING DAYTIME HEATING
AHEAD OF THE FRONT... COUPLED WITH A MOIST AND MODERATE LOW-MID
LEVEL SOUTHWEST FLOW... SHOULD RESULT IN WIDESPREAD SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS ALONG AHEAD OF THE FRONT SATURDAY AND SATURDAY
EVENING.

MUCAPE VALUES OF 2000-2500 J/KG... COUPLED WITH MODERATE 25-35KT
MODERATE DEEP LAYER SHEAR... SHOULD BE SUFFICIENT TO PUSH SOME
STORMS TO SEVERE LEVELS ACROSS PARTS OF NORTH AND CENTRAL GEORGIA BY
SATURDAY AFTERNOON AND INTO SATURDAY EVENING. DAMAGING WINDS... SOME
LARGE HAIL AND FREQUENT LIGHTNING WILL BE THE MAIN THREATS AT THIS
TIME. PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES OF 1.5 TO 2.0 INCHES WILL SUPPORT
LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN... AND ANY TRAINING OF CELLS WOULD RESULT IN
ISOLATED FLOOD PROBLEMS. AT THIS TIME... IT APPEARS THE GREATER
STRONG/SEVERE STORM THREAT WILL BE MAINLY SOUTH OF A CEDARTOWN TO
BLAIRSVILLE LINE FROM LATE SATURDAY MORNING THROUGH THE AFTERNOON
AND INTO THE EVENING HOURS. SPC HAS PLACED MUCH OF THIS AREA IN A
SLIGHT RISK FOR SEVERE STORMS ON SATURDAY.

THE STORM THREAT WILL QUICKLY END BEHIND THE COLD FRONT... ALTHOUGH
POST FRONTAL SHOWERS/PATCHES OF LIGHT RAIN MAY LINGER FOR A FEW
HOURS. ALSO EXPECT SCATTERED SHOWERS AND POSSIBLY A FEW
THUNDERSTORMS TO PERSIST AHEAD OF THE FRONT ACROSS PARTS OF CENTRAL
GEORGIA OVERNIGHT... BUT THE SEVERE THREAT SHOULD END SHORTLY AFTER
MIDNIGHT ACROSS CENTRAL GEORGIA...EVEN AHEAD OF THE FRONT.

OTHERWISE... TOOK A MAV AND MET BLEND FOR TEMPS AND CONTINUED TO
SHOW HIGHER THEN GUIDANCE POPS THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT.

39

LONG TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
EXTENDED PERIODS MARKED WITH MORE DYNAMIC PATTERN AS UPPER TROUGH
RETURNS TO THE AREA. AFOREMENTIONED COLD FRONT PUSHES THROUGH THE
CWA SATURDAY NIGHT/SUNDAY MORNING....WITH SOME ASSOCIATED STORMS
CARRYING INTO SUNDAY MORNING ACROSS THE FAR SOUTHERN PORTIONS OF
THE CWA. FOR THE MOST PART SUNDAY AND MONDAY CONTINUE TO LOOK
LIKE MORE PLEASANT DAYS WITH TEMPERATURES IN THE 80S...AND
VERTICAL PROFILES SHOWING DRY AIR ACROSS THE AREA. TEMPERATURES
SUNDAY WILL HOVER SLIGHTLY BELOW NORMAL...THEN MODERATE SLIGHTLY
TO NEAR NORMAL MONDAY.

WITH THE UPPER TROUGH AXIS REMAINING WEST OF THE AREA...AN ACTIVE
PATTERN IS EXPECTED THROUGH THE WEEK AS SEVERAL FEATURES PUSH INTO
THE REGION. NEXT BOUNDARY IMPACTS THE AREA TUESDAY...WITH ENHANCED
STORM CHANCES REMAINING ACROSS THE AREA THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF
THE WEEK. AMPLE MOISTURE WILL ALLOW FOR MORE EFFICIENT
PRECIPITATION PROCESSES. HAVE GENERALLY GONE GOOD CHANCE TO LIKELY
POPS ACROSS THE AREA EACH DAY TUESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY...AND SLIGHT
CHANCE TO LOW END CHANCE POPS OVERNIGHT.

01/31

AVIATION...
00Z UPDATE...
THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE TO IMPACT ATL THROUGH 01Z. STORMS HAVE
BEEN PRODUCING OCCASIONAL LIGHTNING STRIKES AND GUSTS TO AROUND
25KT. MID TO UPPER HIGH LEVEL CLOUDINESS IS LIKELY OVERNIGHT...BUT
CIGS SHOULD REMAIN AOA 6KFT THROUGH 13Z. COLD FRONT/ASSOCIATED

THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR PORTIONS OF NORTH AND CENTRAL GEORGIA.

.DAY ONE...TODAY AND TONIGHT...

ISOLATED TO SCATTERED SEVERE STORMS POSSIBLE THIS AFTERNOON AND
EVENING ACROSS NORTH AND CENTRAL GEORGIA...AND AGAIN LATE TONIGHT
ACROSS NORTH GEORGIA

WEATHER HAZARDS EXPECTED...

THE MAIN THREAT FROM THE SEVERE STORMS WILL BE DAMAGING WINDS AND
LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN. UP TO 1 INCH HAIL IS POSSIBLE AS WELL. DUE TO
THE LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN...BRIEF FLOODING OF LOW LYING AREAS IS
POSSIBLE.

DISCUSSION...

AN UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE WILL MOVE INTO CENTRAL GEORGIA THIS
MORNING BRINGING AN INCREASE CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS TO CENTRAL
GEORGIA. DAYTIME HEATING COMBINED WITH AMPLE INSTABILITY ACROSS
NORTH GEORGIA WILL BRING AN INCREASING RISK OF SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS NORTH GEORGIA THIS AFTERNOON AS WELL. THE RISK
OF THUNDERSTORMS WILL DIMINISH THIS EVENING. THEN AS A COLD FRONT
MOVES INTO THE TENNESSEE VALLEY...SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL
INCREASE ACROSS NORTH GEORGIA. SOME OF THE STORMS TODAY AND LATE
TONIGHT COULD BE SEVERE...ESPECIALLY ACROSS NORTH GEORGIA.

THE BEST TIMES FOR SEVERE STORMS WILL BE FROM 2 PM TO 10 PM TODAY
ACROSS NORTH AND CENTRAL GEORGIA. ALSO...FROM 9 AM INTO SATURDAY
MORNING ACROSS NORTH GEORGIA.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY...

WIDESPREAD SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED AGAIN SATURDAY
AND SATURDAY NIGHT AS A COLD FRONT PUSHES SOUTHEASTWARD. SOME
STORMS REACHING STRONG TO POSSIBLY SEVERE LEVELS ARE POSSIBLE BOTH
PERIODS. DAMAGING WINDS...LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN AND FREQUENT CLOUD TO
GROUND LIGHTNING WILL BE THE MAIN THREATS. HAIL UP TO 1 INCH IN
DIAMETER IS ALSO POSSIBLE.

THUNDERSTORM CHANCES RETURN MAINLY TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY AS OTHER
DISTURBANCES LOOK TO INFLUENCE THE AREA. THERE IS STILL UNCERTAINTY
IN THE FORECAST ON TIMING AND LOCATIONS OF GREATER CHANCES. STAY
TUNED TO FUTURE UPDATES.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

SPOTTER ACTIVATION IS NOT REQUESTED BUT SPOTTERS ARE ENCOURAGED
