NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PEACHTREE CITY GA
324 PM EDT THU JUL 23 2015

.SHORT TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT/...
CURRENT RADAR LOOP SHOWS NUMEROUS SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
ACROSS THE REGION. THESE STORMS ARE ASSOCIATED WITH A WAVE ALONG A
WEAK FRONTAL BOUNDARY WHICH IS MOVING SE. THIS WAVE SHOULD
CONTINUE MOVING SE THROUGH TONIGHT AND MOVE OFF THE GA/SC COAST
BY 06-12Z FRI. THERE WILL STILL BE SOME LINGERING MOISTURE ACROSS
THE STATE FRIDAY...BUT THE DEEPER MOISTURE WILL BE SOUTH AND EAST
OF THE CWA. THIS WILL KEEP THE BEST CHANCES FOR PRECIP ACROSS OUR
SOUTHERN CWA FRI. TEMPS WILL BE MAINLY IN THE 90S ACROSS THE AREA
FRI WITH SOME 80S IN THE MOUNTAINS.

01

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
CURRENT EXTENDED PORTION IN GREAT SHAPE AS MAIN SURFACE TROUGH AND
ASSOCIATED MOISTURE REMAINS OVER SOUTH GEORGIA AND NORTH FLORIDA
INITIALLY LEAVING OUR LOCAL AREA MUCH DRIER THAN CLIMO FOR THIS
TIME OF YEAR. CONSEQUENTLY POPS FOR SUN ARE QUITE LOW WITH NIL
POPS FOR MOST OF NORTH AND CENTRAL GEORGIA AND ONLY SMALL POCKETS
OF ISOLATED. AREA REMAINS ON THE EASTERN SIDE OF LARGE UPPER HIGH
FOR EARLY NEXT WEEK WHICH SHOULD EVENTUALLY ALLOW FOR SOME UPPER
ENERGY AND DEEPER MOISTURE TO MOVE INTO THE AREA. HAVE INCREASED
POPS SLIGHTLY FOR THE MON AND TUE TIMEFRAME BUT AGAIN OVERALL
GRIDS LOOKS IN GREAT SHAPE.

WEAKNESS IN THE UPPER RIDGE LEAVES THE AREA IN BETWEEN MAJOR
WEATHER SYSTEMS BY THE END OF THE WEEK BUT RESIDUAL HIGH MOISTURE
CONTENT SUGGESTS HIGH END CHANCE POPS CLOSE TO CLIMO FOR THIS
PERIOD. TEMPERATURES ALSO NEAR NORMAL FOR THIS TIME PERIOD
ALTHOUGH COULD SEE SOME SLIGHTLY HIGHER VALUES FOR THE CENTRAL
GEORGIA PORTION.
