$$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 Mar 30, 11:18 AM EDT, 1 hour 7 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Mar 30, 11:18 AM EDT, 1 hour 7 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Peachtree City GA 1118 AM EDT Thu Mar 30 2023 ...Morning Update... .UPDATE... Issued at 1113 AM EDT Thu Mar 30 2023 It's shaping out to be a beautiful Thursday across North and Central Georgia! Current temperatures are in the upper 50s to mid 60s with calm to light SE winds. High temperatures this afternoon will climb into the 70s areawide. Made a few tweaks to grids to reflect current trends, otherwise, forecast largely remains on track. && .SHORT TERM... (Today through Friday) Issued at 317 AM EDT Thu Mar 30 2023 Another gorgeous spring day for the southeast. Southeasterly winds will help drive temperatures up in to the mid to upper 700s for most of the region today. Overnight lows will fall into the mid 50s with some mid 40s across the highest elevation of northern GA. Dewpoints will continue to climb tomorrow as moist humid air pushes in out ahead another front set to move in over the weekend. Showers and a few rumbles of thunder may be possible late tomorrow afternoon across far northern Georgia. Northern Georgia will likely see minimum RH values fall below 25% for a good portion of today and tomorrow afternoon. Please see the Fire Weather Forecast for more information on critical fire danger and the thresholds. Vaughn && .LONG TERM... (Friday night through Wednesday) Issued at 317 AM EDT Thu Mar 30 2023 Front still expected for this weekend...with the potential for strong/severe storms. A second frontal boundary is anticipated for late next week...brining another chance for showers and thunderstorms. Models have slowed the frontal passage down a few hours from run to run for this weekend. The front should approach far NW GA early Saturday morning and then move through the remainder of the CWA during the day on Saturday. The potential is definitely there for thunderstorms, especially with the boundary moving through during the day. With 50-70kt of shear, steep lapse rates, SBCAPE of 500 to 1500 J/kg and RRJ dynamics, there will be plenty of fuel for strong to severe thunderstorms. There is one caveat...the best mid level forcing will remain well to the north of the CWA. The best moisture will be along and south of Interstate 20, with PWATS well above normal. Locally heavy rainfall will be possible within this area. There is also some potential for frost in the NE mountains late Saturday night/early Sunday morning with temps in the middle 30s. Winds may stay up just enough to prevent widespread formation though. High pressure will build back in for Sunday. Models are progging a strong shortwave moving through in the flow Sunday night into Monday that is producing precip (potential MCS?). A second cold front is expected to impact the CWA late Wednesday into Thursday. NListemaa && .AVIATION... (12Z TAFS) Issued at 706 AM EDT Thu Mar 30 2023 Light and variable winds will eventually pick up on the SE side after 16Z today. Otherwise VFR with no issues through the TAF period. A few areas of patchy fog are possible for CSG and MCN this morning. //ATL Confidence...12Z Update... High on all elements Vaughn && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
