.Update...

No big changes to the forecast. Isolated thunderstorms were
lingering...but should dissipate around midnight.

.Previous...

.SHORT TERM /Tonight through Tuesday Night/...

Despite the frontal boundary having relatively little dynamics and
very weak shear, there is an ample instability axis of ML/SB CAPE
3500-5000 J/kg along and ahead of. Also fairly high DCAPE to aid
momentum transport of downdrafts so cannot rule out some strong to
isolated severe development. Coverage should diminish going into
the evening and allow for some clearing conditions and light to
calm winds.

Tuesday will have another boundary push through but even more
moisture starved so will mainly be a reinforcing push of a drier
airmass, but some enhanced gradient winds will kick in out of the
NW and many areas will have winds 10-15 mph gusting 20 mph. Kept a
sliver of slight pops in the far south for mainly the afternoon
as the boundary and some aided sfc convergence near lingering
moisture could trigger some isolated convection, though vast
majority of CWA should be dry and mostly sunny. Slightly above
normal temps expected for afternoon highs with mid 80s to low 90s
in the north to mid 90s in central GA.

.LONG TERM /Wednesday through Monday/...

The cooler and noticeably drier air will remain in place across the
area through Thursday before the influence of a weak sub-tropical
ridge begins to open the Gulf back up to deeper moisture, heading
into the weekend. As mentioned in previous day/s discussions, medium
range models have been in good agreement with some sort of tropical
wave/low pressure center meandering north across the western Gulf of
Mexico over the next 3-5 days. As of this discussion, the National
Hurricane Center has a 70 percent chance of this "wave" developing
into a tropical system in the next 5 days. Depending on its forward
motion/track and intensity, this could become a player for our
weather as early as this weekend, possibly stretching into the early
and middle part of next week. Of course, much uncertainty remains
this far out.

Safe to say that moisture and upr lvl energy will increase across
the area Fri-Sun with chances for precip gradually going up due to
these factors. Temperatures will gradually warm back up by Friday,
along with the humidity. Temps become dependent on how widespread
rainfall is this weekend. At this time, leaning toward a wetter
scenario.
