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.

.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.

.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.
