$$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 26, 7:38 AM EDT, 1 hour 29 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Apr 26, 7:38 AM EDT, 1 hour 29 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Peachtree City GA 738 AM EDT Sun Apr 26 2020 ...12z Aviation Forecast Discussion... .PREV DISCUSSION... /Issued 531 AM EDT Sun Apr 26 2020/ SHORT TERM /Today through Monday/... The low pressure that brought a couple of brief strong storms to far north Georgia Saturday afternoon will continues to lift and depart northeastward today. As the upper trough axis swings over north Georgia today, mostly cloudy skies can be expected in far north Georgia with sufficient wraparound moisture for slight chance to low end chance showers for this areas through this evening. Otherwise, with strong northwest flow, gusty winds will be the primary sensible weather concern today. Sustained winds likely in the neighborhood of 20 mph with intermittent gusts over 30 mph are forecast through the afternoon. For this reason, a Wind Advisory has been issued for the afternoon hours. Afternoon high temperatures will run well below normal across north Georgia under mostly cloudy skies with much of far north Georgia struggling to near 60 degrees. Surface high pressure will settle overhead on Monday. After morning temperatures in the 40s areawide, high temperatures will moderate back into the 70s for most of the area under mostly sunny skies. RW LONG TERM /Monday Night through Saturday/... The long term picks up on Monday night where some cloudiness may be possible across north GA as moisture aloft moves in along the northwesterly flow. Some cloudiness may persist through Tuesday before the next system moves in on Wednesday. Fire weather conditions will need to monitored as RHs are expected to be low and fuels will remain dry into this period. The GFS and Euro have come into agreement on the timing of our next chance of rain/thunderstorms on Wednesday, with the Canadian lagging behind the other two. Upper level PV-anomaly moving along the jet will move into the midwest and encounter a surface baroclinic zone leading to development and deepening of both a surface low and the upper level trough. As the surface low moves northeast into the Great Lakes region, an associated cold front will move into the forecast area Wednesday morning. Moisture will be pulled northward from the gulf ahead of the front, though strength of the return varies in the models. Instability will be limited, with lapse rates not very favorable. The front may be the primary forcing mechanism for any storms which do form, preventing any surface based activity, which will further limit the overall severe potential. Continued to include thunder in the forecast for Wednesday and increased precip chances given model agreement on timing. Some chances of wrap around precip in the north Georgia mountains as the systems pulls to the northeast on Thursday. High pressure moves in along with upper-level ridging, allowing temperatures to quickly rebound and become unseasonably warm. Guidance is hinting at the potential for record warmth in the Day 7 to 8 range (early next week), with temperatures potentially into the 90s in central Georgia. Stay tuned! Lusk FIRE WEATHER... A Fire Danger Statement has been issued for much of central Georgia. While current forecast RH values are borderline (upper 20 percent range), gusty west to northwest winds and dry fuel moistures meet the conditions. RW && .AVIATION... 12Z Update... Largely VFR cigs prevail this morning with a small patch of borderline MVFR cigs briefly affecting RYY. Otherwise, VFR will prevail through the period.
