...Afternoon Area Forecast Discussion...

.SHORT TERM...
(This afternoon through Thursday)
Issued at 141 PM EST Wed Jan 4 2023

The main area of precip is exiting the SE corner of the CWA with
the actual front just sweeping through the ATL area. There is a
thin line of showers along the front but they are light and not
causing any issues. Things are clearing fast behind the frontal
boundary as the front ushers in a much drier and cooler airmass.
Seeing dewpoints in the 30s around the TN/AL/GA boarders with
good W to NW flow setting up. This drier airmass will dominate the
weather patter through the rest of the short term and into the
beginning of the extended periods. Will see temps dip tonight
into the 40s across North and Central GA but they are still
expected to rebound into the mid to upper 60s for Thu. These
warmer temps are still about 10 degrees above average; a trend
that will likely continue through the long term.

.LONG TERM...
(Friday morning through next Tuesday)
Issued at 141 PM EST Wed Jan 4 2023

No major changes made to the extended forecast. A comparatively
cooler and drier airmass will be in place across north and central
Georgia as the extended period begins Friday. An upper level
ridge and associated surface high will move over the Southeast on
Friday, which will keep weather conditions benign and skies mostly
clear across the region through Saturday. Low temperatures are
forecast to drop into the 30s across the forecast area as the
morning begins. Afternoon highs will still be 3-6 degrees above
climatological normals, but no longer pushing record values,
rising into the mid 50s in north Georgia and upper 50s to low 60s
in central Georgia. After starting the morning in the mid 30s
across the area on Saturday, temperatures will climb under the
influence of the ridge, reaching into the low to mid 60s across
the area in the afternoon.

A weak frontal system will drop into north Georgia Saturday
night/Sunday, However low-level moisture and instability continue
to appear limited with this system. Keeping a slight/chance of
showers with no thunderstorms in the forecast across north
Georgia. The frontal boundary is anticipated to sag into north
Georgia before stalling and washing out early Monday. Model
guidance continues to diverge on the upper level flow pattern
during the early portions of next week. The potential remains for
additional waves to traverse the remnant boundary, so slight to
low- end chance PoPs have been maintained on Monday and Tuesday.
The potential for a wintry mix in the higher elevations of
northeast Georgia will need to be monitored at the tail-end of the
period, as there is a slight chance that precip overrunning the
frontal zone may overlap with border-line freezing temperatures in
this area Monday night into Tuesday morning.

.AVIATION...
(18Z TAFS)
Issued at 1235 PM EST Wed Jan 4 2023
The main area of rain has exited the area but there is a small
line of showers along the actual front moving through the ATL
area now. The ATL/CSG area TAF sites are now done with the rain
but AHN and MCN will still see some over the next few hours. IFR
and MVFR ceilings will lift in the ATL area within the next hour
and will see clear skies by 20-24z across the entire area. Winds
are mainly out of the SW and will turn to the NW through this
evening. Wind speeds will stay in the 4-8kt range. Restrictions to
VSBYs are not expected in the ATL/CSG areas but may see some MVFR
VSBYs in AHN/MCN with the thin line of showers moving in over the
next few hours.

//ATL Confidence...Avi Update...
Confidence high on all elements.
