Area Forecast Discussion

1238 PM EST Thu Jan 5 2023

...New 18Z Aviation Discussion...

.SHORT TERM...
(Today through Friday)
Issued at 328 AM EST Thu Jan 5 2023

We can all take a deep breath and let it out as zonal flow settles
across the area bringing long(ish) days and pleasant nights. Highs
for the near term will be a few 5 to 10 degrees above normal in the
mid 60s with upper 50s across areas of higher elevations. Lows will
be in the mid to upper 30s Thursday night and going into Friday.

Winds this afternoon will be generally west at 5 to 10mph with the
occasional gusts up to 15mph. But besides a little wind and a few
clouds it will be a lovely start to the weekend.

.LONG TERM...
(Friday night through Wednesday)
Issued at 328 AM EST Thu Jan 5 2023

As the extended period begins on Friday night, much of Georgia will
be positioned under northwesterly mid level flow ahead of an
approaching ridge. A surface high pressure system associated with
this ridge will be positioned over the Southeast, and benign weather
conditions are expected during the daytime on Saturday as a result.
Temperatures are expected to lower to the mid 30s across the area by
Saturday morning. Temperatures will continue to climb under the
influence of the ridge and surface high, rising into the low to mid
60s in the afternoon. On Saturday night into Sunday, the ridge axis
will move across the forecast area as a longwave trough moves
eastward across the Midwest. A surface low ahead of the trough will
also be moving eastward at this time, but there is disagreement in
the mid-range guidance regarding where this low will be positioned.
For example, the latest run of the GFS progs the low further to the
north, moving across the Ohio Valley region as the latest ECMWF
meanwhile progs the low to the south, moving across Tennessee.

A weak cold front will extend from this low into the lower
Mississippi River valley on Saturday night and push eastward towards
the area. Broad lift ahead of the advancing front will allow for
scattered showers starting late Saturday night and throughout the
day on Sunday. The highest rainfall chances are expected to be
across the northern tier where front is expected to be strongest,
with diminishing chances to the south as the forcing ahead of the
front weakens. Rainfall totals from this system are trending upward,
but still appear to be limited by a lack of deep-layer moisture, and
are forecast to be between 0.25-0.5" across the far northern tier
and less than 0.25" across the remainder of the area. Rain chances
are expected to diminish Sunday night and into Monday morning.

The progressive flow pattern will persist into the early parts of
the week, with a ridge and associated surface high moving across the
Southeast on Monday. This will limit rain chances during the daytime
on Monday and promote gradually clearing skies throughout the
daytime. By Monday night, a trough will begin to lift northeastward
from the ArkLaTex and advance towards the Mid-Atlantic coast over
the course of the day on Tuesday. Rain chances are anticipated to
increase from west to east during the daytime Tuesday as the
trough quickly swings through the area. However, model guidance is
divergent on the development of an associated surface low and its
progression, so PoPs have been limited to low-end chance on
Tuesday into Wednesday.
