Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Peachtree City GA
357 AM EDT Tue Oct 9 2018

|
.SHORT TERM /Today through Tonight/...
Deep easterly flow will continue across the area through tonight
ahead of Hurricane Michael. The airmass will continue to moisten,
with thickening cloud cover and increasing chances for showers in
the short term. Surface instability remains low, so the chances for
thunderstorms will remain very low, in the isold/slight chance
category.

Temperatures will still be a few degrees above normal through the
period.

NListemaa

.LONG TERM /Wednesday through Monday/...
The main focus of the long term period will center around Hurricane
Michael as the remnants move across the CWFA. Michael is expected to
make landfall along the Florida panhandle early on Wednesday, and
then rapidly accelerate northeastward later Wednesday into Thursday.
The main impacts from Michael expected across the CWFA should be
felt Wednesday afternoon into early Thursday morning. The main
hazards will be tropical storm force wind gusts and heavy rainfall.
A Flash Flood Watch has been issued for areas along and south of a
line from Madison County to Chattahoochee county (see Hydro
discussion). Currently, the strongest wind gusts associated with the
storm are expected to impact areas along and south of Warrenton to
Macon to Columbus line. However, both the heaviest rainfall axis and
wind gust forecast could change if the track of Michael is adjusted
even slightly with respect to speed/location.

Strong high pressure will build behind Michael through the early
weekend. The high center is expected to move offshore by Sunday as a
cold front moves into the Lower Mississippi River Valley. The
frontal boundary will move east fairly quickly and is expected to
move through the CWFA Monday into Monday night. High pressure is
expected to return for the middle of the week.

If there is one thing to look forward to in the extended forecast,
its the more Fall-like temperatures for early next week. Low
temps in the 50s!

NListemaa

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
Currently, the heaviest rainfall axis associated with Michael will
be south and east of a line from Athens to Columbus. The heaviest
rainfall is expected to fall Wednesday afternoon through Thursday
morning. Widespread totals of 3" to 5" are possible, with some
locally higher amounts between 6" and 7". For areas just north and
west of the Athens to Columbus line (lets say along the I-85
corridor), will be in the gradient between the highest rainfall
amounts to the southeast and the lowest across northwest GA. In the
85 corridor, amounts between 1" to 3" are possible, with some
locally higher amounts. If the track/speed of Michael changes, this
could make big changes to the rainfall forecast, especially in the I-
85 corridor. Will go ahead and issue a Flash Flood Watch along and
southeast of the line from Madison County to Chattahoochee County.

&&

.AVIATION... 06Z Update... Sct MVFR clouds flirting with the
airports currently. Do expect IFR clouds to develop around 10z
this morning. Cigs should lift to around 035-040 for the
afternoon, staying mostly cloudy. Winds will be gusty through the
period with frequent gusts between 20-25kt out of the east.
Scattered shra most likely this afternoon, only very small chances
for thunder so have left out of the prob group for now. The
highest coverage should be during the late afternoon, but cannot
rule out an isold shra/sprinkle through mid morning.

//ATL Confidence...06Z Update...
Med confidence overnight cigs and precip timing for the afternoon.
Otherwise, high confidence all elements.

This Hazardous Weather Outlook is for portions of North and
Central Georgia.

.DAY ONE...Tonight...

The probability for widespread hazardous is low.

Isolated showers and thunderstorms will gradually diminish this
evening. Locally heavy rain and occasional cloud to ground lightning
will be the primary threats.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Tuesday through Sunday...

Hurricane Michael is expected to continue strengthening as it moves
north across the Gulf of Mexico Tuesday and Wednesday. It is
expected to approach the Florida panhandle sometime Wednesday. The
storm is expected to then turn northeast, moving across parts of
Georgia Wednesday night into Thursday. Based on the latest forecast
from the National Hurricane Center, chances are increasing for heavy
rain and strong, potentially tropical storm-force winds, to affect a
large portion of central and even north Georgia, including the
Atlanta metro area Wednesday night into Thursday. However, the exact
intensity and timing of these winds and rain will continue to be
dependent on Michael's track and forward movement.

Please continue to stay updated with the latest forecasts over the
next few days.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

Spotter activation will not be needed through tonight.
