What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this river flood 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 river flood warning went out at Apr 5, 3:47 PM EDT, 1 hour 38 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Apr 5, 3:47 PM EDT, 1 hour 38 minutes before

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Peachtree City GA
347 PM EDT Wed Apr 5 2017

.SHORT TERM /Tonight through Thursday Night/...

A very active weather day continues this afternoon with a large area
of thunderstorms across central Georgia and additional isolated
thunderstorm activity farther north in northwest Georgia.

Expect the risk for severe thunderstorms to continue into the
evening hours both in association with the cluster of thunderstorms
in southern sections of the area as well as with additional
development in west and northwest Georgia ahead of the cold front.
With abundant instability to our west across Alabama and extending
into northwest Georgia, expect this area to become the focus for
strong to severe convection later this evening. As favorable shear
is also in place, tornadoes would be possible with any discreet
storms that develop and push into Georgia from the west later this
evening. There is a question how far east any severe thunderstorms
that develop ahead of the front will be able to reach given a tongue
of lower instability from the Atlanta metro area and northeastward;
however, if this area is able to destabilize then the risk would
exist farther east. At this time, an additional Tornado Watch has
been issued for far northwest Georgia to cover the aforementioned
potential increasing from the west. If conditions warrant, this
watch could be extended eastward later this evening.

A Flash Flood Watch also continues for much of north and portions of
central Georgia into tonight given the copious amounts of rainfall
experienced in many locations and associated flash flooding issues.
Many locations in a band running from Carroll County eastward across
the Atlanta metro and into the Athens area have already experienced
3+ inches of rainfall today with additional rainfall possible this
evening.

There is light at the end of the proverbial tunnel, however, as the
cold front will begin to sweep through the area from the west
tonight. The severe threat will end as this occurs. Gusty west to
northwest winds will build in behind the front, especially during
the day Thursday when sustained winds over 20 mph and gusts over 30-
35 mph will be plentiful. These winds in association with mostly
cloudy conditions and even a few showers across north Georgia will
provide for a much cooler day than today. Most areas across north
Georgia will remain in the 50s for highs with central Georgia only
mustering the 60s. Widespread low temperatures in the 40s can be
expected by Friday morning with some frosty 30s possible in the
north Georgia mountains.

RW

.LONG TERM /Friday through Wednesday/...

No significant changes were made to the extended forecast. See
previous discussion for more details.

RW

LONG TERM /Thursday Night through Tuesday/...
Extended period largely overshadowed by short term severe threat.
Following the aforementioned system, wrap around moisture will
linger over the northeast Georgia mountains through Friday morning,
with the potential for some mixed precip as temperatures drop into
the low to mid 30s. For now, have limited the p-type to rain or
snow, and will need to revisit this in subsequent forecast packages.
Not expecting any accumulations at this time. Will also need to
consider issuing a Freeze Warning for this area given the expected
low temperatures.

Below normal temperatures expected Friday will slowly warm through
the weekend, with highs in the 60s on Saturday and the mid to upper
70s on Sunday with sunny skies. High pressure will hold through the
weekend and into next week, with the next system approaching late
Tuesday - a tad slower than the previous model runs. GFS and ECMWF
differ in timing by 6-12 hours, with the better activity currently
timed for Wednesday. For now have limited pops to good chance.
Temperatures will generally stay in the mid 70s to near 80 through
next week.

AVIATION...
18Z Update...
Through this afternoon, expect rounds of shower and thunderstorm
activity to affect TAF sites. Expect at least a brief general
break in activity late afternoon at Atlanta area sites before
additional convection over Alabama potentially affects TAF sites
late this evening. Expect MVFR ceilings and occasional IFR
visibility in and near convection. Variable to southeasterly winds
initially at ATL area sites should trend to southwest late
afternoon. Overnight winds will become westerly and gusty behind a
cold front and remain westerly and gusty on Thursday.

//ATL Confidence...18Z Update...
Low to medium confidence on all elements through this evening.
High confidence on winds tonight into Thursday.
