AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PEACHTREE CITY GA
338 AM EDT TUE JUN 9 2015

.SHORT TERM /TODAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
SCATTERED CONVECTION ONGOING ACROSS NORTH GEORGIA ASSOCIATED WITH
THE SHORT WAVE SWEEPING THROUGH THE OHIO/TENNESSEE VALLEYS EARLY
THIS MORNING. COVERAGE AND INTENSITY HAS DECREASED AS EXPECTED WITH
THE DECREASE IN INSTABILITY...HOWEVER MODERATE UPPER-LEVEL SUPPORT
HAS KEPT ISOLATED STRONGER STORMS GOING. THIS FOCUS SHIFTS SOUTH
THROUGH THE MORNING INTO CENTRAL GEORGIA BY THIS AFTERNOON. UPPER
SUPPORT WEAKENS THROUGH THIS PERIOD AS THE MAIN SHORT WAVE SWEEPS
EAST INTO THE MID-ATLANTIC COASTAL REGION AND THE NORTHEASTERN U.S.
CANNOT RULE OUT LINGERING ISOLATED TO SCATTERED CONVECTION ACROSS
THE NORTH INTO THE AFTERNOON AS THE ASSOCIATED SURFACE FRONT ONLY
SLOWLY SPREADS A SLIGHTLY DRIER AND MORE STABLE AIRMASS INTO NORTH
GEORGIA. THREAT OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS REMAINS MARGINAL AT BEST AS
BETTER UPPER DYNAMICS SHIFT AWAY FROM THE REGION AND INSTABILITY
REMAINS ONLY MODERATE. CONVECTION WANES THROUGH THE EVENING WITH
BETTER CHANCES REMAINING ACROSS CENTRAL GEORGIA WHERE THE WEAK
FRONTAL BOUNDARY SETTLES AND STALLS. FOR WEDNESDAY...BETTER CHANCES
FOR THUNDER REMAIN ACROSS CENTRAL GEORGIA IN THE VICINITY OF THE
STALLED AND WEAKENING FRONTAL BOUNDARY...BUT WEAK TROUGHING ALOFT
AND MARGINAL TO MODERATE MOISTURE AND INSTABILITY KEEP AT LEAST
ISOLATED CONVECTION IN THE FORECAST ACROSS THE NORTH.

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY/...
NO MAJOR CHANGES WERE NOTED IN THE OVERALL PATTERN THROUGH THE
EXTENDED... AS MODELS CONTINUE TO SHOW GOOD AGREEMENT WITH AN
ONGOING ACTIVE WEATHER PATTERN EXPECTED FOR THURSDAY AND INTO
FRIDAY. THEN HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN FROM THE EAST AND WARRANTS
REDUCED OVER THE WEEKEND AND FIRST OF NEXT WEEK. THEREFORE...
STILL LOOKING AT ABOVE NORMAL POPS THROUGH END WEEK... THEN ONLY A
SLIGHT CHANCE OF MAINLY AFTERNOON AND EVENING CONVECTION OVER THE
WEEKEND AND ON MONDAY... EXCEPT MAYBE SLIGHTLY HIGHER CHANCES IN
THE NORTH GEORGIA MOUNTAINS DUE TO OROGRAPHIC LIFT. A WEAK WIND
SHEARED ENVIRONMENT CONTINUES TO SUGGEST MAINLY UNORGANIZED
DIURNALLY DRIVEN CONVECTION EACH DAY... WITH MOST STORMS REMAINING
BELOW SEVERE LIMITS. HOWEVER... STILL CANNOT RULE OUT AN ISOLATED
SEVERE STORM AS A WARM SOUTHWEST FLOW ON THURSDAY... THEN
INCREASING HIGH PRESSURE INFLUENCE FRIDAY THROUGH MONDAY ALL HELP
PUSH DAYTIME HIGHS INTO THE UPPER 80S AND 90S... RESULTING IN AT
LEAST 2000-2500 J/KG OF MUCAPE EACH DAY. ALL INTEREST WITH OUTDOOR
PLANS... ESPECIALLY THIS WEEKEND... ARE ENCOURAGED TO CLOSELY
MONITOR THE RADAR BEFORE VENTURING OUTDOORS DESPITE THE LOW RAIN
