$$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 Jan 9, 9:52 PM EST, 48 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Jan 9, 9:52 PM EST, 48 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Peachtree City GA 952 PM EST Tue Jan 9 2024 ...Evening Update... .UPDATE... Issued at 943 PM EST Tue Jan 9 2024 Forecast remains on track for this evening. Despite briefly slackening after sunset, gusty winds have picked back up over the past hour or two. A Wind Advisory remains in effect for areas south and east of I-85 until 1 AM EST, with gusts to 35 mph possible. Periods of a light rain/snow mix, a light rain/sleet mix, or light snow showers are possible until very early Wednesday morning for areas north of a line extending from Polk to Banks counties. Accumulation will be minimal to negligible -- a dusting to perhaps an inch for highest elevations -- with minimal to no travel impacts expected. 96 && .SHORT TERM... (This afternoon through Wednesday) Issued at 249 PM EST Tue Jan 9 2024 Now that all the severe weather has exited the area, things should overall be calmer through the short term period. A swath of showers extending from Wilkes Count to Wilcox county is moving southeastward across the area which will ultimately move completely out of the CWA in the next couple of hours. Behind this swath of showers is elevated showers across the area using up leftover moisture and energy behind the line. Generally this is not reaching the ground but a couple of areas may see very light precip. Precip estimates over the past 24hrs has shown widespread ares of 2-3" with many areas at 3-4" and some areas from 4-5+" especially just south of I- 85. This has ultimately led to flash flood warnings in these areas and then many river flood warnings especially in the metro. Looking at tonight into tomorrow morning, things could get a tad interesting when it comes to winter weather. With how powerful the low pressure system is, as it sweeps northward into the northeast today, leftover energy will result in wrap around precip in the form of snow showers over much of north GA mainly north of the metro. Accumulations are expected to be from 0.5-1" in elevations mostly >1500 ft. Currently have an SPS out for this so check that for any further details you may want/need. Looking at winds, we have allowed the High Wind Warning to expire and have replaced it with a wind advisory until 00z (7pm) tonight. We have two wind advisories in place. The first one encompasses north GA and central GA from the Athens area southwest to just north of Columbus. This advisory will likely be allowed to expire at 00z (7pm). The second wind advisor is for the remainder of central GA to southeast central GA, which will expire at 06z (1am). This will also likely be allowed to expire at that time. Ultimately when looking at the 925mb winds, they are still in the 40-50kt range which as has been seen through today will continue to mix down with gusts from 30- 40kts across the area. The first advisory is where the winds will taper off first as the jet moves eastward and ultimately out of the second advisory area by 06z tonight. For tomorrow, still expecting cloudy skies for much of the day before clearing begins tomorrow night which will ultimately lead to some clear skies before the next system (Friday) that is talked about in the long term period. Temps today have already reached their max across much of the area and are expected to continue to drop into the low to mid 30s across the area with upper 20s in the northeast. Tomorrow, only expecting temps to top out in the 45-55 degree range before dipping down into the low to mid 30s again tomorrow night. Hernandez && .LONG TERM... (Thursday morning through next Monday) Issued at 249 PM EST Tue Jan 9 2024 Very little change to the long term forecast. Friday continues to have potential for strong to severe weather. Ensembles for the beginning of the week have quite a bit of spread on timing and potential for winter weather, so PoPs remain a bit spread out. Best chances for seeing a snowflake fly remains across north Georgia. See previous discussion below. Lusk (Wednesday night through Monday) Issued at 445 AM EST Tue Jan 9 2024 Key Messages: - Another storm system will bring showers and thunderstorms to the area late Thursday night and Friday. Some thunderstorms may be strong. Colder and drier air will continue to filter into the area Wednesday night on the heels of the departing cold front and upper trough. Most locations will drop to near or just below freezing Wednesday night, with mid 20s across portions of the NE mountains. Warmer temperatures are forecast for Thursday, with most locations reaching into the mid to upper 50s and even some lower 60s across the S. Another storm system will approach the area Thursday night, bringing a chance of showers and thunderstorms. This system will lift NE on Friday as a negatively tilted trough, reaching the Great Lakes by Friday night. A 996 mb surface low is progged to be near Little Rock by Friday morning. A large area of isentropic lift is forecast to precede the low, with increasing MUCAPE and wind shear across most of the forecast area. There will be another threat of severe weather with this system during the day Friday, and the threat area looks to be farther to the N than with today's system. GFS MUCAPE values are forecast to reach near 1000 J/kg as effective shear increases to over 40 knots in the Atlanta metro area. This will coincide maximum daytime heating in the early afternoon, with surface temperatures reaching over 60 degrees and dew points reaching the lower to mid 50s. The wedge/CAD is forecast to hang into NE GA during this time period, but present indications are that it will be NE of the Atlanta metro area. Storm total rainfall amounts with this system are forecast to range from around a quarter inch S of Columbus to close to an inch across N GA. Residents should continue to monitor the latest forecast regarding this storm system. A bit of snow will linger over the N mountains Friday night, but dry weather is forecast to return on Saturday. Temperatures will be rather cold over the weekend, with the potential of even colder weather early next week. A weak southern stream storm system may move along the Gulf Coast on Monday, bringing light rain amounts and the chance for frozen precipitation across N GA. NBM low temperatures Tuesday morning appeared to be too cold. Even though this was at the tail end of the forecast period, opted to blend 2 parts operational NBM with 1 part NBM 90th percentile to bump low temperatures up closer to MEX MOS guidance. SEC && .AVIATION... (00Z TAFS) Issued at 635 PM EST Tue Jan 9 2024 Primarily VFR conds areawide will give way to MVFR cigs by 06-07Z, lingering thru a majority of the pd. A passing -SHRA is psbl thru 06Z at northern sites, but potential currently too low for TAF mention. Winds initially decreasing in speed after sunset will see ocnl gusts to 25-30kts return between 03-07Z, before gradually dropping once again to 10-13kts by 14-15Z.
