Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Peachtree City GA
753 AM EDT Mon Mar 27 2023

...New 12Z Aviation Discussion...

.SHORT TERM...
(Today through Tuesday)
Issued at 349 AM EDT Mon Mar 27 2023

Torrential rainfall will continue tonight and into the morning
hours. Some areas have already received 4 inches of rain across
central Georgia south of I-20. Some of these storms have been
extremely efficient rain producers with up to 2" per hour. Up to 3
additional inches may fall overnight as a result, isolated flash
flooding is possible. If you have to drive, please exercise extreme
caution as high water will be difficult to recognize.

The axis for precipitation should begin pushing south early this
afternoon, and finally come to an end late this evening for areas of
south and central GA. The front that has caused so many problems for
the south will likely stall somewhere north of the FL panhandle and
as a result another wave of precipitation will be likely for
Tuesday. While rainfall totals will remain less than a quarter of an
inch, areas that have been saturated will likely see quick flash
flooding responses and swollen rivers may react quickly to
additional rainfall.

Temperatures will remain seasonal through the short term, with highs
in the upper 60s and 70s. However, overnight lows could reach
freezing, especially across NE Georgia after the front moves
through. A frost advisory may be necessary for some areas of
northern GA.

.LONG TERM...
(Tuesday night through Sunday)
Issued at 349 AM EDT Mon Mar 27 2023

I'm on a roll and everyone else is busy so I'll be your long term
forecaster for this morning as well. The front will finally kick out
and return dry weather to the area come Wednesday. Cooler temps will
settle in on the backside of the front, with temps comfortably in
the mid 60s for the highs and overnight lows in the low 40s with
some 30s in the higher elevation.

Temps will start to rebound on Thursday as warm moist air advects
back into the area once again and we're back in the 80s come Friday.
On Saturday our chance for thunderstorms returns as a cold front
pushes in from the west. There is some discrepancies between the
major models. The GFS has a sharp cold front that pushes through
relatively quickly. The EURO shows another boundary that stalls
across the area as the upper level dynamics turn more zonal and the
low levels get cut off from the parent low. This is ultimately what
drives the uncertainty in the weekends PoPs which have been capped
for now at slightly.

In the Euro's solution a boundary that sets up may be able to tap
into dewpoints in the upper 60s. A weak disturbance in the upper
level flow may be all it takes to set off more severe weather.
Capped thunder at chance for much of the CWA until a better picture
comes into view.

.AVIATION...
(12Z TAFS)
Issued at 752 AM EDT Mon Mar 27 2023

Conditions are set to rapidly improve for ATL this TAF period. A
cold front will push remaining TSRA out of ATL by 15Z. CIGS should
rise to VFR shortly after. Winds are pick up this afternoon after
18Z and become NW. CSG and MCN will likely continue to see TSRA
until after 18Z with damaging winds and large hail possible.

//ATL Confidence...12Z Update...

Medium to high on all elements.
