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 Feb 14, 3:57 AM EST, 2 hours 2 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Feb 14, 3:57 AM EST, 2 hours 2 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Peachtree City GA 357 AM EST Wed Feb 14 2024 ...Morning Area Forecast Discussion... .SHORT TERM... (Today through Thursday) Issued at 355 AM EST Wed Feb 14 2024 At a glance: -Dry and cool today. -Winds will finally mellow out today. Clear skies this morning with be the theme of the day. High pressure is firmly in control and dry air has settled into the area. Dew points will be in the 30's and it will certainly feel that way. Keep that chapstick on you. Daytime highs for the next two days will be comfortably in the low 60s for most of the CWA with overnight lows at or slightly above freezing. Enjoy it out there today! Vaughn && .LONG TERM... (Thursday night through Tuesday) Issued at 355 AM EST Wed Feb 14 2024 Weak ridging develops across the Southeast to start the extended outlook, weakening the surface high. At the same time, a deep sub- tropical trough continues to build across the Western CONUS, priming the area for weak Southwest flow. Upper level support by both the resultant sub-tropical and polar jet streaks will initiate cyclogenesis in the AR-OK-TX border area. The resultant system will likely bring widespread showers to the cwa on Friday night into Saturday morning. A few models (GFS, and ECMWF to some extent) are indicating reduced-to-no precipitation due to drier air and limited frontogenetic support in North and Central GA, however more than likely will see at least light showers across the area. In either scenario, limited WAA will mean instability remains limited and thunderstorms unlikely. Southwesterly flow does not last long, as the western trough makes its way eastward. High pressure and dry air will mean a return to clear but cold conditions. Highs through the weekend will be in the low 50s, however lows may be in the mid 20s to near freezing. SM && .AVIATION... (06Z TAFS) Issued at 1202 AM EST Wed Feb 14 2024 SKC and VFR all night. Winds are 5-10kts out of the NW but they should gradually ease to less than 5kts after 16Z.
