What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this special weather statement went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS Atlanta, GA wrote its last area forecast discussion before this special weather statement went out at Jul 6, 3:35 PM EDT, 1 hour 49 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jul 6, 3:35 PM EDT, 1 hour 49 minutes before

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Peachtree City GA
335 PM EDT WED JUL 6 2016

.UPDATE...
Updated to extend the Severe Thunderstorm Watch into the far
southeast CWFA.

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /Issued 304 PM EDT WED JUL 6 2016/

SHORT TERM /Tonight through Thursday Night/...
Solid line of strong to severe thunderstorms has evolved out of the
convection associated with the short wave lifting out of Alabama.
This should progress east across the southern half of the forecast
area through the remainder of the afternoon with most if not all
activity south and east of the area by this evening. Will still see
some residual instability across the area and there is some
potential for redevelopment across the north later tonight along if
we see any significant outflow pushing southeast out of the
thunderstorm complex in the Mid-South/Ohio Valley region this
afternoon. Upper-level flow turns somewhat northwesterly in nature
Thursday...but best energy running through this flow remains mostly
north and east of the state. Without the cool mid-level temperatures
and direct short wave support we saw today...Thursday severe
potential looks marginal at best.

Forecast Heat Index values are around Heat Advisory levels across
the far southeast tomorrow afternoon. Right now confidence is not
quite high enough to go with the advisory...mid-shift will need to
re-evaluate with the new model input.

20

LONG TERM /Friday through Wednesday/...

Previous Discussion...

Long Range models show good agreement with weak disturbances
exiting east Thursday night... with increased ridging and a weak
northwest flow aloft developing by Friday morning. This should
spread some drier air into the forecast area on Friday and help
hold afternoon convection down to more isolated in coverage at
best. The drier... less active pattern may be short-lived as
models agrees on a strong low pressure system pushing across the
Great Lakes region Friday night-Saturday that drags a frontal
boundary into the TN Valley region on Saturday... then possibly
into north Georgia Saturday night. It appears an active west to
northwest flow aloft could interact with the front to produce
scattered showers and thunderstorms across the forecast area over
the weekend and into the first part of next week. This daily
scattered convection is much needed with much of north Georgia in
a severe drought. Otherwise... expecting near or slightly warmer
than normal temperatures to prevail... with highs generally in the
90s and lows in the 70s... except 80s and 60s respectively in the
mountains.

39

AVIATION...
18Z Update...

VFR conditions are expected to predominate across the area through
06Z outside of convection. Areas of MVFR or lower visibilities and
ceilings are possible 06Z-14Z...however confidence not high enough
to include in any TAFs right now. Line of strong convection across
the forecast area will continue to push east impacting mainly the
southeastern half of the area through 22-24Z. Could see additional
convection pushing southeast into the northern half of the area
after 04Z...however confidence is medium at best. Winds will remain
southwest to west through the period. Winds speeds 7-12kt w/ gusts
15-20kt through 00Z...diminishing to 3-7kt after.

//ATL Confidence...18Z Update...

High concerning wind direction/speed...medium all other parameters.
