What forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this freeze warning 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 freeze warning went out at Oct 29, 3:25 AM EDT, 16 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Oct 29, 3:25 AM EDT, 16 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Peachtree City GA 325 AM EDT Sun Oct 29 2017 .SHORT TERM /Today through Monday/... Cold front is currently clearing the far SE zones within the CWFA. Lingering showers on the back side of the front will also continue to exit the far SE CWFA and should be long gone by 12Z. High pressure will build in from the west through the short term period. CAA will continue for much of today, with gusty NW winds. Winds will be gusty with the tight pressure gradient, and a Wind Advisory will be needed for the outlook area. Sustained winds around 20mph will be possible across the entire CWFA, with slightly higher sustained winds in the highest elevations. Widespread wind gusts 30-35mph will also be likely, with occasional gusts up to 40mph, especially in the mtns. Models have been very consistent with overnight temperatures 32 degrees or less across the far northern portion of the CWFA. There could be another tier of counties just to the south that could potentially be included within the warning, but confidence is not as high at this time that the majority of the county will see freezing temperatures. So, interests from Floyd over Banks counties should continue to monitor later forecasts for possible inclusion into the Freeze Warning. There is also some patchy frost in the grids for overnight. However, conditions may not be too favorable for frost formation - the gradient may not totally relax and just enough mixing may occur. Areas south of the Freeze Warning will also want to monitor later forecasts for the potential issuance of a Frost Advisory. High pressure will move closer to overhead on Monday. The gradient will begin to relax and temperatures will begin to moderate. Dry conditions will continue. NListemaa .LONG TERM /Monday Night through Saturday/... Start of the long term remains quiet with no precip expected through Tuesday night and temperatures starting to warm. The upper flow moistens up starting Wednesday and mainly affects n and some portions of central GA the rest of the long term period with significant surface fronts staying n of the area. This will lead to slight chance or chance of mainly showers as overall forecast instability is limited. Some instability creeps back in the area for Friday and Saturday but nothing to write home about. Forecast Temperatures will continue to warm into the weekend. BDL && .AVIATION... 06Z Update...
