Baker && .PREV DISCUSSION... /Issued 301 PM EST Wed Jan 23 2019/ SHORT TERM /Tonight through Thursday Night/... High pressure over the area is weakening as frontal system moves in across the region. looks like the front has moves into western AL and making its way east. It should push into NW GA by 21-23z this evening and continue moving east through tonight. Expecting showers to increase from west to east over the next few hours and continue across the state over night. By 12z Thursday...the frontal boundary should be just east of our CWA with only a few lingering showers remaining over eastern GA. With this rain moving through tonight there will be an increased chance of flooding mainly across N GA where the larger amounts are expected. Could see 1 to 3 inches of accumulations for areas North of a Rome to Canton to Cleveland line. Have issued a flood watch for those areas through 12z Thu morning. Gusty winds are also an issue with this system and have been seeing winds gusting into the 30-35kt rage across the area. These wind speeds are expected to stay elevated through tonight. With the increased rain on top of the already saturated soils...could see a tree or two fall tonight. We have a wind advisory going and are extending it to include more of central GA and taking it through 06z Thu. Once this system exits the area tomorrow morning will see clearing skies and cooler temps as a cooler airmass moves in. High temps Thu will stay mainly in the 40s and 50s with lows Thu night in the 20s and 30s. 01 && .LONG TERM /Friday through Wednesday/... High pressure and fair weather will be the rule for much of the long term forecast period. However, a sharp cold front and colder temperatures are expected by the end of the week. This system will bring some potential for wintry weather across a good portion of the CWFA. Dry conditions and near to slightly below normal temperatures are expected through the first half of the weekend. Both the ECMWF and GFS are progging a shortwave and weak frontal boundary to impact far northern GA by late Sunday into early Monday. Neither model is producing much precip with this system, but the ECMWF is slightly wetter and further south with the shortwave energy. The next system is expected to impact the CWFA Tuesday in the form of a sharp cold front. Much colder air is anticipated on the back side of this boundary, and there is some potential for wintry weather before all of the low level moisture clears out. Kept the p- type as ra/sn as it it way to early to nail down specifics. For now, the chances for precip remain low, but will have to continue monitoring. NListemaa && .AVIATION... 00Z Update... Expecting primarily MVFR to high end IFR cigs filling in here soon with main area of precip along frontal system pushing in from the west. Vsbys could also be in the IFR/MVFR range as well before the majority of rain (possibly isolated TS south) pushes east of the sites by 06-08z with some lingering VCSH. MVFR cigs lingering until about 15z Thursday then quickly scattering out to be mostly clear after 18z. Winds initially near south 15 kts gusting 25 kts with some LLWS then swinging west to NW overnight and some gusts continuing Thursday near 20 kts. //ATL Confidence...00Z Update... Medium on cigs/vsbys overnight. High on all else. Baker && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
