$$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 3, 2:01 PM EDT, 52 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Apr 3, 2:01 PM EDT, 52 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Peachtree City GA 201 PM EDT Mon Apr 3 2023 ...New 18Z Aviation Discussion... .SHORT TERM... (Today through Tuesday) Issued at 437 AM EDT Mon Apr 3 2023 Mid-level water vapor satellite imagery and MRMS composite reflectivity show a shortwave trough and associated MCS-type system traversing MS and AL this morning. Light showers moving over the CWA from the southwest will fall into the relatively dry layer below ~700 mb, moistening it through the morning. Light rain showers will give way to more steady rainfall over the course of the morning from southwest to northeast. GOES GLM Total Optical Energy is indicating areas of frequent lightning in the convection associated with the shortwave, so have a slight chance for thunder in the forecast this morning for the majority of the CWA. As the afternoon gets underway, the HREF is progging instability advection across the southwestern CWA as the shortwave passes over, with SBCAPE/MUCAPE of 250-500 J/kg. Progged effective bulk shear ~40 kts and 0-3 km SRH ~200 m^2/s^2 across this area suggest the potential for some strong, organized updrafts and thus damaging winds. In addition, progged 0-1 km SRH ~200 m^2/s^2 is indicative of a non-zero tornado threat. SPC has this southwestern portion of the CWA outlooked in a Marginal Risk for severe storms as a result. Across the rest of the CWA, there is less of a signal for deep convection in the CAMs, but do think occasional thunder will be possible. Showers and storms will wane after ~00z Tuesday as the shortwave axis shifts east of the CWA. In addition to the potential for severe storms, WPC has southwestern GA outlooked in a Marginal Risk for isolated flash flooding as some of the CAMs depict several rounds of convection occurring across this area through the afternoon, and near-surface soils are nearly saturated given recent rainfall. That said, the 00z run of the HREF depicts the greatest rainfall accumulation south of the CWA (a change from the 12z 3/2 run) so could see the flash flooding threat decrease if this trend of a southward shift in convection continues. There will be quite a spread in high temperatures today with portions of central GA in the upper 60s to upper 70s while much of north GA will only reach the upper 50s to mid-60s. Tuesday morning lows will be in the mid-50s to mid-60s with overnight patchy fog a possibility after the rainfall today leaves the surface muggy in its wake. Cloud cover will decrease late Tuesday morning through the afternoon as a shortwave ridge shifts over the CWA. Tuesday afternoon highs will generally be in the mid-70s to mid-80s. Martin && .LONG TERM... (Tuesday night through Sunday) Issued at 437 AM EDT Mon Apr 3 2023 An unsettled and soggy extended forecasts is on tap for north and central Georgia with rain possible every day after mid week. Kicking off on Tuesday night, an upper lvl ridge begins building over the eastern CONUS. This warm and moisture SW-ly flow will set the stage for near record high temps by Wednesday afternoon, with highs in the mid to upper 80s area wide, with potential for some areas across central Georgia to reach into the low 90s for the first time this season. A cool and casual ~15-20 degrees above the seasonal high temperature for this time of year. Thankfully though, these warm temps will be short lived as a FROPA and associated showers and thunderstorms approach NW Georgia by Wednesday night. Not anticipating a widespread severe threat this go around as best parameters will be up near parent low over the US NE. However, expecting this front to stall and elongate with the flow by Friday, with showers and thunderstorms expected through the weekend as several waves of low pressure move along the stalled boundary. Will need to be on the lookout for Flash Flood/River Flood hazards as rivers remain elevated from previous bouts of rainfall. Current forecast rainfall totals are around 1-2" across much of the area Thursday through Saturday, but given PWATS >1.5" in some areas over central Georgia (again near or over the max moving avg), expect totals to fluxuate as event approaches. In addition, moving through mid/end of weekend, another feature to keep an eye on will be a CAD wedge riding down the lee side of the Appalachians and into north Georgia by next Saturday further enhancing rainfall totals. Morgan && .AVIATION... (18Z TAFS) Issued at 142 PM EDT Mon Apr 3 2023 MVFR conditions expected to set in at airport soon as lower cigs noted on satellite move into area. Could see some period of IFR cigs through sunset. SHRA will likely continue on an off next few hours as a few waves of precip moves through. Expecting to go solid IFR cigs by around midnight, then forecasting LIFR potential in the early morning - though forecast models have been trending with less potential. Patchy fog development will also be possible during morning. Winds expected to remain on the east side through period, going more SE into tomorrow. //ATL Confidence...18Z Update...
