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 24, 3:43 PM EDT, 4 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Mar 24, 3:43 PM EDT, 4 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Peachtree City GA 343 PM EDT Tue Mar 24 2020 .SHORT TERM /Rest of today through Wednesday Night/... Main focus of fcst will largely be the strong to severe storm threat in the near term and tonight period. An upper shortwave looks to amplify some across the area late this afternoon into overnight. While a lingering wedge has persisted in the northeast, mainly from northern half of the Atlanta Metro over to Athens and northward, the other portion of the CWA has had more destabilization with some scattering of stratocu and increased daytime heating. The RAP even has an axis of progged SBCAPE getting up to near 1500 J/kg going into this evening ahead of the trough. With ample low and deep layer shear expected, the Slight to Marginal severe outlook looks well justified for damaging winds with any bowing segments, along with hail and isolated tornado threats. The HREF probs for STP greater than 1 do get above 90 percent for late afternoon into evening across mainly western portions of the CWA, though any localized interaction with the aforementioned wedge front could focus an increased risk for stronger rotating convection and will need to be monitored. Otherwise expecting a drying postfrontal regime for Wednesday and a switch to NW flow aloft. Should still be pleasant above normal temps getting into the 70s for most areas then lows in the upper 40s to 50s Wednesday night. Baker && .LONG TERM /Thursday through Tuesday/... The highlights of the extended forecast are above average temperatures with a couple dry days followed by a late weekend frontal passage. The forecast picks up on Thursday morning with northwesterly mid- /upper-level flow and a surface high sinking providing dry conditions through Friday. South to southwesterly lower and upper level flow returns on Saturday ahead of developing surface low over the Midwest region. PoPs increase through the day Saturday into Sunday as the associated cold front approaches and sweeps through the CWA. Models have come into better alignment with the timing of this system with some minor discrepancies in precipitation amounts, ranging between .01 and .25 inches. Medium range models bring in quasi-zonal flow with a weak surface high over the Ohio River Valley on Monday then begin major to have major disagreement through the rest of the extended forecast. Currently, the GFS has the development of a faster and more progressive mid-level over the Appalachians on Tuesday while the ECMWF has a more amplified mid-level trough with a surface low developing over the SE. Regardless, rain chances look to continue into early next week even though confidence remains low on potential system impacts. High temperatures should remain above average through the period, except on Sunday and Monday, thanks to the aforementioned cold front. Lows should remain above average through the rest of the extended. Morgan && .AVIATION... 18Z UPDATE... LIFR/IFR cigs lingering near KAHN, with 2500-3500 ft range and some VCSH for other sites. Shower and TSRA coverage increases this evening, mainly in the 02-06z period for the northern sites then later south. Strong to severe storms possible as well so could have stronger gusts in any development. Expecting return of some IFR cigs close to 800 ft near KATL overnight and MVFR vsbys before front passes through (cigs a bit lower for KAHN and higher for southern sites). SW winds mainly 7-12 kts with some gusts near 18kts for KATL. Should shift more west to NW by Wednesday morning. //ATL CONFIDENCE...18Z UPDATE... Medium on overall cig and vsby trends. High on all else. Baker && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
