Area forecast discussion, Jun 20, 2:39 PM EDT, 1 hour 22 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PEACHTREE CITY GA
239 PM EDT SAT JUN 20 2015

.SHORT TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT/...
MODELS IN CLOSE AGREEMENT MOVING THE REMNANTS OF BILL AWAY FROM THE
CWA AND THE H5 RIDGE SLOWLY BUILDING OVER THE SOUTHEAST. THIS WILL
BRING IN DRIER AIR ALOFT FOR SUNDAY WITH POPS CONFINED TO THE
EXTREME NORTH AND THE EXTREME CENTRAL PARTS OF THE STATE...MAINLY
DURING THE AFTERNOON. WITH THE RIDGE BUILDING...EXPECT SLIGHTLY
WARMER TEMPERATURES SUNDAY THAN TODAY.

17

.LONG TERM /MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
EXTENDED MODELS CONTINUE TO ADVERTISE OPPRESSIVE RIDGE BUILDING
INTO THE REGION THROUGH MID WEEK...WITH LIMITED POPS AND HOT
TEMPERATURES. A TRANSITION IN OVERALL PATTERN IS EXPECTED LATE
WEEK AS HIGH PRESSURE RIDGE RETREATS OVER THE ATLANTIC AND
LONGWAVE TROUGH SETS UP OVER THE EASTERN CONUS. THIS SHIFT SHOULD
ALLOW TEMPERATURES TO RETURN CLOSER TO NORMAL WITH BETTER CHANCES
OF RAIN RETURNING. HAVE ONLY MADE MINOR ADJUSTMENTS TO THE
FORECAST. PREVIOUS DISCUSSION IS INCLUDED BELOW.

31

/ISSUED 430 AM EDT SAT JUN 20 2015/
GENERAL BLEND OF GUIDANCE LOOKS REASONABLE FOR THE LONG TERM AS
BROAD UPPER RIDGING PROGGED TO BUILD IN FROM THE WEST AND ALLOW
FOR ANOTHER WAVE OF OPPRESSIVE HEAT THRU THE MAJORITY OF THE WORK
WEEK WITH TUE AND WED BEING THE HOTTEST DAYS AS TEMPS LOOK TO
CLIMB TO THE UPPER 90S ACROSS MUCH OF THE AREA...NEARLY 10 DEG
ABOVE CLIMO NORMS. NEEDLESS TO SAY WILL BE AGAIN LOOKING AT HEAT
ADVISORY CONCERNS FROM MON-THU FOR MAINLY CENTRAL GA WITH
RESULTANT HEAT INDICES NEAR OR EXCEEDING 105. AS FAR AS
POPS...WILL LIMIT TO SLIGHT CHANCES IN THE FAR NE AND SOUTHERN
TIER ON MON/TUE FOR DIURNALLY DRIVEN POTENTIAL OF SHOWERS/STORMS...
THOUGH FCST THERMAL PROFILES CONTINUE TO INDICATE THE GRADUAL
WEAKENING OF A 700 MB CAP BY WED/THU MAKING CAPE MORE EASILY
ATTAINED. HAVE THEREFORE TRENDED POPS TO SLIGHTLY GREATER CHANCE
WED AFTERNOON AND IN THE 30-40 PERCENT RANGE FOR THU/FRI AS RIDGE
BREAKS DOWN.

A MORE ACTIVE PATTERN IS STARTING TO SET UP FOR THE END OF THE
WEEK INTO NEXT WEEKEND AS MODELS ARE IN FAIRLY GOOD CONSENSUS
WITH A TRANSITION TO NW FLOW AND SIGNS OF THE UPPER TROUGH TAKING
RESIDENCE ACROSS THE EASTERN CONUS. WHILE THIS SHOULD BRING A
REPRIEVE TO THE RECENT HEAT SPELLS...IT WILL LIKELY MAKE FOR
ACTIVE PERIODS OF STORM POTENTIAL FROM DISTURBANCES TRAVERSING THE
UPPER FLOW.
