$$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 Dec 9, 5:04 AM EST, 29 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Dec 9, 5:04 AM EST, 29 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Peachtree City GA 504 AM EST Sun Dec 9 2018 .SHORT TERM /Today through Monday/... Main concerns in the short term period are winter precipitation and amounts, strong winds and flooding from overnight heavy rainfall. Winter precip and temperatures have evolved very close to forecast values in most areas, though icing in trees a little less than expected. With the strong winds and light icing in trees, have had numerous reports of trees down across northeast GA, especially in winter storm warning areas, White and Dawson counties in particular. Near term, hires model guidance still indicating temps will cool a degree or two over southern part of wedge, north of I-20 today and am hesitant to cancel advisory in this area in spite of limited icing in trees. Have had some reports of trees down from strong winds and icing in Hall and Banks counties and would not be surprised if this continues and happens a little further south today. Fortunately, bulk of heaviest precip has moved out and will now be in a period of scattered light precip with lessening chances through Monday. Temperatures in the warm nose aloft quite warm this morning based on 06Z RAOB and hires model profile so expect more FZRA/RA than SN/IP today before cooling takes place aloft and we transition to very light RA/SN after 6pm. Later shifts may want to clear out winter advisories and warnings a little sooner based on reports and feedback from partners. Likewise, heavy rain has also mostly ended with scattered areas of moderate precip. Runoff from heavy rainfall has led to several flood warnings for observed or expected minor flooding. Will continue watch until runoff and rising streamflows have decreased. Strong winds have also subsided some but with risk of falling trees from ice or wet soils, will allow wind advisory to expire at noon. SNELSON .LONG TERM /Monday Night through Saturday/... Precip finally ends Mon evening as short wave moves out. Med range guidance in fair agreement up until Thursday with NW flow becoming WSW in advance of strong, digging short wave plowing down into TX on Thurs. GFS and EC cutoff this wave into a deep upper low over the southern plains early Fri with vigorous ascent over GA, though EC tracks this upper low over south GA and GFS takes it north. CMC meanwhile keeps wave open but still strong as it also brings strong vertical motion over GA on Fri. Luckily, even with southern track of EC, temps will be too warm for any winter precip. There could be some convection if GFS solution verifies, though instability so far appears meager. There is some potential for heavy rainfall with any of these solutions so will need to watch this closely. SNELSON & .AVIATION... 06Z Update... IFR Conditions through the forecast. Winds will remain east/northeast with frequent gusts of 30 to 35 kts overnight and diminish later this Sunday morning...but still with a few gusts to 20 to 25 kts. A wintry mix will begin late tonight and continue into this afternoon. //ATL Confidence...06Z Update... High on ceilings...wind...and probability of precipitation. Low on timing and type of wintry mix this Sunday morning. 41 && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
