Area forecast discussion, Apr 5, 7:39 AM EDT, 1 hour 15 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Peachtree City GA 739 AM EDT Wed Apr 5 2017 .PREV DISCUSSION... /Issued 348 AM EDT Wed Apr 5 2017/ SHORT TERM /Today through Thursday/... Severe weather is expected across much of Georgia today. Be ready to execute your severe weather plan in case a Severe Thunderstorm Warning or Tornado Warning is issued for your location. Keep a way to receive weather warnings nearby - such as a NOAA weather radio or your smart phone. Please stay weather aware today, and stay safe out there. A very vigorous storm system will impact the CWFA today. There could be several rounds of severe thunderstorms today, so don't let your guard down if you experience relatively quiet conditions for a period of time. The first round of severe weather is currently impacting portions of southern Alabama and the Florida panhandle. This activity is associated with a northward moving warm front. This warm front is expected to move into SW GA early this morning and keep moving to near the I-20 corridor by daybreak. South of the warm front, the airmass is very unstable and lapse rates are very steep for this time of the morning. Reports of up to half dollar sized hail have been reported across portions of SE AL. With this first round of thunderstorms, expect the primary modes of severe weather to be large hail (up to 2 inches possible) and damaging wind gusts in excess of 60 MPH. An isolated tornado cannot be ruled out either, as the front will provide an excellent source of low level shear. The warm front may end up settling somewhere in the vicinity of the northern 'burbs of Atlanta by mid morning. This means that most of the CWFA will be in the warm sector for the afternoon. The atmosphere should have enough time to recuperate from the morning storms, and become very unstable during the peak heating of the afternoon - especially if the clouds begin to break. All the ingredients for severe weather will be present: strong mid and upper level forcing, strong surface instability, plenty of deep level shear, a 40-50kt 850mb jet, etc. This will be the time that discreet cells ahead of the front are expected to develop and supercells will be likely. (Prime time for tornado development.) The actual cold front isn't expected to move through until later in the evening and into the overnight hours. The actual front will provide enough focus for additional storms well into the evening and overnight. However, the atmosphere *may* be worked over enough by the time the front moves through that the coverage and *possibly* severity of the storms may decrease. However, not entirely confident on this situation - so continue to stay weather aware even after the sun sets. There is plenty of much cooler air behind this system and Thursday's will be a (relatively) cold and windy day. A Wind Advisory will likely be needed, but don't want to over complicate the headlines for today. NListemaa 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. 31 HYDROLOGY... Widespread QPF amounts of 1.5 to 2.25 inches still look to be handled well across middle Georgia today. Flash Flood Guidance suggests that the area can handle these rainfall amounts, even if they were to fall in a one to three hour time frame. WPC does have the area outlooked for a slight risk of flash flooding, and isolated flash flooding cannot be ruled out, particularly as storms train over the same area, or where localized rainfall amounts are higher. Site specific headwater forecasts are largely keeping river gage locations at or below action stage following the precipitation today. Modeled precipitable water values remain near seasonal maximums, and expect high rainfall rates from efficient storms. Have opted to issue a Flash Flood Watch mainly along the Interstate 20 corridor for the heaviest QPF axis. AVIATION... 06Z Update... Main changes to the TAF this cycle were to tweak the timing for the early morning shra/tsra and change the prob group to a tempo. Several rounds of shra/tsra expected for the afternoon. Will likely have to tweak the prevailing tsra wording at later updates. //ATL Confidence...12Z Update... Medium confidence all elements. && .AVIATION... 12Z Update... Made some slight timing tweaks to the TAFS for the first round of thunderstorms this morning. Otherwise, no major changes through the day. After the first round of storms, there could be a lull, but do expect convective activity to develop again during the early afternoon. This activity could linger into the early evening hours. Winds are currently flirting with due south, but do expected them to switch to the SW by mid morning. //ATL Confidence...12Z Update... Medium confidence all elements. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
