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 Apr 19, 7:50 PM EDT, 1 hour 11 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Apr 19, 7:50 PM EDT, 1 hour 11 minutes before

Area Forecast Discussion...Updated for Aviation
National Weather Service Peachtree City GA
750 PM EDT Sun Apr 19 2020

.SHORT TERM /Tonight through Monday Night/...

Warm front and sharp sfc instability gradient continues to remain a
bit farther south and flirting with the southernmost tier of
counties or even just a tier even farther south. Some of the
stronger convective triggering has still been on the northern
elevated CAPE side. An axis of training cells and heavier rain has
set up mainly along and south of a zone near Columbus to Macon and
flash flooding concerns could ramp up shortly given upstream trends
back in AL and fairly good consensus in CAMs. The Flash Flood Watch
continues for the southern majority of the area - see Hydrology
section below for more details.

While parts of north GA transitioned to a lull in precip coverage,
we are still in an open upper wave and could easily fill back in
ahead of main trough axis later tonight. This feature with attendant
sfc low and a strong LLJ kicking in late this evening into the early
morning hours looks to allow for the last one to two rounds of
strong to severe storms even farther north with possible bowing
segments or QLCS anywhere from the Atlanta metro into all of central
GA. SPC has maintained the MDT risk across central GA with a tighter
gradient of Enhanced/Marginal north.

Expect rapidly improving conditions with some enhanced NW gradient
winds in the post frontal regime for Monday. Highs will be mainly
in the low 70s north to mid 70s south and then lows Monday night
generally ranging from the upper 40s to low 50s.

Baker

&&

.LONG TERM /Tuesday through Sunday/...

Dry conditions will prevail at the onset of the long-term forecast
period. A reinforcing dry cold front will push through the area on
Tuesday, bringing breezier conditions during the day and cooler
overnight temperatures. Surface high pressure will gradually shift
eastward through the day Wednesday with one more dry day through
Wednesday night.

By Thursday, the next storm system will be quickly approaching.
While there is fairly good model agreement regarding the general
track of the surface low on Thursday, some discrepancies remain with
the ECMWF favoring a slightly more southerly track across the
Tennessee Valley while the GFS is more northerly across the Ohio
Valley. Convective parameters do favor some severe potential on
Thursday, though questions remain regarding the quality of
instability. Additionally, rainfall totals of 1-2" again look
probable with this system.

Behind this strong midweek system, model discrepancies increase
significantly by late week into next weekend. Given substantial
differences in timing and evolution by this time frame, maintained
a return to chance PoPs by the weekend.

.HYDROLOGY...
The Flash Flood watch remains in effect generally along and south
of the I-20 corridor through tonight into early Monday. While one
to two and a half inches have fallen already, an additional one to
four inches and locally higher amounts are possible through
tonight. Heavy rainfall will likely lead to localized flooding.
Flooding of low-lying areas, creeks and streams can be expected
with additional larger river rises anticipated as well, well after
the rain ends.

.AVIATION...
00Z UPDATE...

Warm front remains across north FL and not expected to push north
until after 06z. The southern taf sites will continue to have more
predominant TSRA coverage into this evening while there is more
uncertainty along the northern sites. Stronger forcing could have
predominant TSRA in the 06-09z across the taf sites. Ceilings are
LIFR/IFR and should remain there until after sunrise...with an
improving trend during the day Monday. Winds should stay east to
southeast 6 to 9 kts through much of the night...then become
northwest with gusts after 12z.
