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 Mar 5, 1:27 AM EST, 1 hour 15 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Mar 5, 1:27 AM EST, 1 hour 15 minutes before

.UPDATE...

Updated for the 06Z Aviation Discussion.

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /Issued 1011 PM EST Wed Mar 4 2020/

UPDATE...

Current forecast grids continue on track. Widespread light to
occasionally moderate rain continues across the forecast area. The
persistent area of heavy rain along the southern fringe of the
forecast area has eased somewhat. Threat for isolated severe
thunderstorms, although not completely gone, has also eased a bit for
now, however, the complex system driving this event remains a potent
system. A marginal threat at least, will persist across the southern
end of the forecast area into Thursday.

20

PREV DISCUSSION... /Issued 625 PM EST Wed Mar 4 2020/

.00Z Aviation Forecast Discussion...

SHORT TERM /Tonight through Thursday Night/...

Rain will continue across the area through Thursday
afternoon/evening...Then we finally get a break. Current mosaic
radar loop shows showers and thunderstorms extending from the TX/NW
border to the Carolinas. Also there is a closes low developing along
the TX gulf coast and it will move east along the coast through
tonight. This low will pull all this moisture eastward with it
allowing a high pressure center to build south out of the central
plains behind it. This ridge is what will shut the rain off for the
weekend. The closed low center will be centered over the Northern by
18z  and push off the GA/FL/SC coast by 009z Friday. Drier air
begins to push into N GA Thu evening with things clearing out across
the entire state by Friday morning. With the main low centered
expected to stay south of our CWA the best instabilities are also
expected to stay south. We will see some isolated storms tonight and
Thursday but not expecting much in the way of strong to severe
storms. This is right in line with SPC keeping the slight risk area
across South GA through Thu night. Temps Tonight and Thu night
expected to stay mainly in the 40s. Highs expected in the 50s Thu.

01

LONG TERM /Friday through Wednesday/...

Relief from the rain is on the horizon! The long term period
kicks off on Friday morning with northwest flow aloft across the
eastern U.S. with upper-level ridging and surface high pressure
settling in across the Southeast on Saturday and Sunday. This will
lead to dry conditions and temperatures (especially lows) across
the CWA around 5-10 degrees below average through the weekend.

The next chance for rain will come with a low pressure system and
attendant cold front approaching from the west on Monday
evening/overnight, though there are model discrepancies in terms
of timing. The GFS is faster in bringing rain to north Georgia
(with rain progged to reach northwest Georgia as early as Monday
night) with the main axis of rain meandering across north Georgia
into Tuesday. The ECMWF, on the other hand, is currently a good 6
hours slower in bringing the rain in. While there is still
uncertainty in terms of storm potential, will have to keep an eye
on Tuesday and Wednesday, as the GFS is hinting at marginal
instability across portions of the CWA. The chance for rain
showers will remain in the forecast on Wednesday as the cold front
sinks into Georgia.

After this cooler-than-normal weekend, temperatures will climb
back to around 5-15 degrees above average (with highs in the 60s
and 70s, and lows in the 40s and 50s) for the first half of next
week.

.AVIATION...
06Z Update...

Widespread showers are ongoing across north Georgia and are
expected to redevelop over central Georgia by 12Z, and are
will continue until pushing eastward out of the forecast area
between 18Z and 00Z. Some isolated thunderstorms are also expected
throughout the day, with the greatest chances at CSG/MCN. VFR
ceilings are in place across all TAF sites and are anticipated to
lower to MVFR by 08-09Z, then IFR or lower by 12Z. IFR conditions
will then hold until until 20Z before steadily improving to VFR by
02Z. E to NE winds at 5-10 kts will increase 10-14 kts with gusts
up to 20 kts by 16Z, decreasing in magnitude and shifting to NW
around 02-03Z.
