$$What forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this severe thunderstorm 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 severe thunderstorm warning went out at Apr 14, 11:31 AM EDT, 47 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Apr 14, 11:31 AM EDT, 47 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Peachtree City GA 1131 AM EDT Sun Apr 14 2019 .UPDATE... Updated afternoon pops to hold onto a slower propagation of the initial band of storms. Hi-res solutions of the HRRR and Nam Nest are consistently having some convective redevelopment across portions of north GA this afternoon closer to the actual front and east of trough axis so while this initial round has damaging wind and brief tornado threats, the afternoon could still have damaging wind and perhaps hail threats with steepening lapse rates. Don't let your guard down after this first pre-frontal wave. Previous discussion follows... Baker && .PREV DISCUSSION... /Issued 730 AM EDT Sun Apr 14 2019/ SHORT TERM /Today through Monday/... Very active day expected for the CWFA as the potential for severe weather remains high across the area. Pre-frontal trough/squall line is currently moving across western Alabama. This line will continue eastward through the overnight and early morning hours and should begin approaching the AL/GA state line right around 12Z. The hi-res models have been very consistent run to run with the timing of this system for the past 24 hours. Yesterday, there were some hints in the models that as the initial line approached GA, some weakening was possible with additional strong/severe convection firing up along the actual cold front during the late morning/afternoon. Today's runs of the HRRR and local WRF, continue to show this trend. However, individual cells out ahead of the line will have to be watched very closely. Winds aloft remain impressive today with a 60kt 850mb jet moving across as the front/squall line moves across. With temps near 80 degrees and dewpoints in the mid/upper 60s, plenty of surface instability will be available. The best mid level lapse rates are across northern GA, with more marginal values mainly south of Interstate 20. In addition, this is a very dynamic system aloft. The combination of all of these ingredients lead to the high potential for severe weather across the entire CWFA today. The primary weather hazard will be damaging wind gusts in excess of 60mph. Even the 06Z sounding is showing close to 1000 j/kg of DCAPE. With mid level lapse rates between 6-6.5 C/km across the northern CWFA, large hail is also possible. An isolated tornado is also not out of the question as decent shear will also be present. Locally heavy rainfall will also be likely, with widespread 1" to 2". Locally higher amounts possible. The gradient has tightened head of the cold front. Do think that the highest elevations will have the best chances for achieving the sustained/gust potential for criteria. Outside of the mountains, values will be a bit more marginal. However, even sub wind advisory winds will bring down trees with wet soils. No changes expected for the NPW. The line of shra/tsra should clear the CWFA by the early evening. High pressure will build in behind the frontal boundary. Near or slightly below normal temps expected for tonight and Monday. NListemaa LONG TERM /Monday Night through Saturday/... Extended forecast starts with high pressure over the area, lasting through mid week. Next system moves in late Thursday, and have backed off pops Wednesday given the slightly later model solutions. Strong frontal system looks well organized and brings the next chance for severe storms. SPC already highlighting the area for Day 6 and 7 severe threat risk, and so this system will certainly be the forecast concern through the latter half of the week. A secondary wave swings through the long-wave trough Friday night into Saturday, keeping chance pops in the forecast. High pressure returns to the state late Saturday. Saturday, expect the coolest temperatures for the week, with highs only in the 60s, and lows largely in the mid to upper 40s by Sunday morning. 31 && .AVIATION... 12Z Update... Line of convection is poised to move through during the first few hours of the TAF period. The hi-res models have been very consistent with the timing of the convective line. After the main line of convection, do expect sct shra/isold tsra for the remainder of the afternoon as the upper level system moves through. Not confident on CIGS behind the line, but BKN MVFR seems reasonable. VFR CIGS expected towards 12Z MON. Winds should shift to the SW behind the front/convective line and remain gusty. //ATL Confidence...12Z Update... High confidence on timing of convective line. Med-high confidence on CIGS behind the line. Otherwise, high confidence all elements. NListemaa && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
