.PREV DISCUSSION... /Issued 619 PM EDT THU JUL 7 2016/

UPDATE...
MCS over eastern Tennessee moving southeast and is likely to move
across the northeast part of the CWA. Have increased pops to
likely over parts of northeast Georgia for the next several hours.
This system is moving rapidly and should be out of the CWA between
04-06z. No other changes planned

PREV DISCUSSION... /Issued 316 PM EDT THU JUL 7 2016/

SHORT TERM /Tonight through Friday Night/...
Closely watching observed trends. Still appears convection if it
develops will be confined to northeast and eastcentral GA counties
this afternoon. 12z hires models still not showing much coverage
of convection which may fire along outflow boundary currently
slipping through northeast GA. with mlcape values 2000-3000 J/kg
and 0-6km nw oriented bulk shear 20-25kts...if a storm could fire
on a well defined boundary it would likely be severe.

By this evening...any forcing and and instability drops
dramatically so have tapered off and removed pops for all but far
northeast GA after 01z.

Could see similar situation tomorrow and will be highly dependent
on any MCS development and evolution overnight. For this reason...
hard to be comfortable with hires or even HRRR guidance beyond 12
hours. Temps should be quite a bit warmer Friday so will need to
monitor for possible heat advisory again. As it stands advisory
criteria will likely be met for Friday afternoon for SE counties.
Will wait for more recent guidance and better consensus from
neighboring offices before issuing any advisories.

SNELSON

LONG TERM /Saturday through Thursday/...

No major changes to the extended forecast.

Unsettled weather is expected for much of the long term portion of
the forecast.

A frontal boundary will remain draped across northern GA through the
weekend into early next week. With several perturbations in the flow
expected to move se/e in the mid levels...precip chances should be
enhanced. The highest chances should remain in the vicinity of the
boundary through Tuesday.

The boundary should become diffuse by the middle of next week.

Heat Index values may approach Heat Advisory criteria in the
southeast CWFA on Saturday.

PREV LONG TERM DISCUSSION...
/Issued 400 AM EDT THU JUL 7 2016/
The long term period begins with yet another strong shortwave
moving through the Tennessee valley which allows a surface front
to approach North GA. Best deep layer moisture remains over the
southern portions of the area but certainly enough over the North
to warrant low end pops even into the overnight period. Hot
conditions continue for Sat as 592DM high remains over Central GA
and along with increased low level moisture...will need to monitor
for possible heat advisory conditions. Otherwise...decaying front
will provide the focus for storms which will try to overcome warm
mid levels and cap in place. For these reasons...will hold pops
at low end chance for now.

For much of the remainder of the long term period...including
Sunday...we will see a more active pattern characterized by strong
shortwaves moving through and surface trough providing focus for
convective initiation. Timing of individual shortwaves and
position of meandering trough will ultimately define where best
rain chances reside but have favored the northern zones for now in
the latest grid set. This disturbed pattern will also help keep
temps down through the period...closer to climo values.

.AVIATION...
00Z Update...
VFR through the forecast. CU is dissipating with a few cirrus left
for the night. There could be pockets of mvfr clouds but at this
time will go with SCT015 late tonight all areas. MCS over SE
Tennessee and NE Georgia should continue moving southeast and stay
away from the TAF sites. Winds will diminish this evening and then
gust again Friday.
