Area forecast discussion, May 26, 3:06 PM EDT, 1 hour 26 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PEACHTREE CITY GA
306 PM EDT TUE MAY 26 2015

.SHORT TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT/...
GOOD AGREEMENT WITH THE MODELS ON POSITION OF THE MOISTURE AXIS
SETTING UP OVER THE CWA THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT...HOWEVER THE NAM IS
JUST A LITTLE DRIER. WILL LEAN MORE WITH THE GFS/ECMWF SOLUTION
GIVEN THE AMOUNT OF PRECIP THAT IS CURRENTLY OVER AL/GA. THINKING
THAT THE SHORT WAVE MOVING OVER THE AREA WILL SHIFT EAST OF THE CWA
THIS EVENING DIMINISHING THE PRECIP SOMEWHAT...BUT THEN ANOTHER
SHORT WAVE WILL MOVE INTO THE CWA LATE TONIGHT INCREASING THE
PRECIP...MAINLY ACROSS NORTH AND WEST GA. WITH DAYTIME HEATING
EXPECT MORE WIDESPREAD CONVECTION LATE WEDNESDAY MORNING/AFTERNOON.
HIGH K INDEX VALUES ALONG WITH RELATIVELY HIGH PRECIP WATER WILL
KEEP THE THREAT OF BRIEF HEAVY RAIN IN THE STRONGER STORMS THIS
AFTERNOON AND AGAIN WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON.

17

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
EXTENDED MODELS CONTINUE SHOW A MOIST FLOW OVER THE SOUTHEAST
THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE WORK WEEK...WITH GOOD CHANCE TO
LIKELY POPS THROUGH THURSDAY. INFLUENCE OF SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE
FRIDAY AND INTO THE WEEKEND WILL SCALE BACK RAIN CHANCES AND KEEP
CONVECTIVE ACTIVITY MORE DIURNAL IN NATURE. HAVE ONLY MADE SLIGHT
ADJUSTMENTS TO TEMPERATURES AND POPS TO ACCOUNT FOR NEIGHBOR
CONSISTENCY AND LATEST MODEL GUIDANCE. PREVIOUS FORECAST
DISCUSSION FOLLOWS.

31

&&

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 333 AM EDT TUE MAY 26 2015/
A MOIST SW FLOW ALOFT WILL WEAKEN WEDNESDAY NIGHT INTO THURSDAY.
THIS WILL DECREASE THE CHANCE FOR UPPER LEVEL SHORTWAVE POTENTIAL
TO AFFECT THE AREA. PLENTY OF MOISTURE STILL IN PLACE TO CONTINUE
RATHER HIGH CHANCES FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS THROUGH
THURSDAY.

A MORE DIURNAL TENDENCY LOOKS TO BE IN STORE TO THE SHOWERS AND STORMS
FRIDAY INTO SUNDAY DUE TO A WEAKER FLOW ALOFT BUT STILL PLENTY OF
MOISTURE IN PLACE ALONG WITH DIURNAL INSTABILITY.

AN UPPER LEVEL TROUGH OVER THE MID U.S. APPROACHES THE AREA MONDAY AND
TUESDAY. THIS WILL PROVIDE INCREASED CHANCES FOR SHOWERS AND STORMS.

TEMPERATURES RUNNING AROUND TO SEVERAL DEGREES ABOVE NORMAL THROUGH
THE LONG TERM.

.AVIATION...
18Z UPDATE...
CONVECTION WILL CONTINUE TO DEVELOP THROUGH THE AFTERNOON WITH ALL
TAFS FEELING THE IMPACT OF TSRA THIS AFTERNOON/EVENING. ACTIVITY
SHOULD DIMINISH LATE THIS EVENING BUT INCREASE AGAIN AS WEAK
DISTURBANCES MOVE OVER THE FORECAST AREA. EXPECT TSRA TO DEVELOP
AGAIN LATE WEDNESDAY MORNING/AFTERNOON. MOST AREAS HAVE GONE VFR
BUT THERE WILL CONTINUE TO BE SCATTERED AREAS OF MVFR CIGS. CIGS
WILL BECOME IFR LATE TONIGHT AND SLOWLY INCREASE TO MVFR BY 18Z
WED. WINDS WILL BE SOUTHERLY THIS AFTERNOON...BECOMING SOUTHEAST
THIS EVENING AND BACK TO SOUTHERLY WEDNESDAY.
