AN UPPER LOW OVER THE MID-ATLANTIC REGION WILL SLOWLY WEAKEN AND LIFT NORTHEAST. A LARGE SURFACE HIGH WILL DEVELOP OFF THE SOUTH CAROLINA COAST.

THE MOST LIKELY TIME FOR THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE FROM 4 PM UNTIL MIDNIGHT. .DISCUSSION... A SERIES OF WEAK DISTURBANCES WILL RIDE AROUND THE NORTHEAST PERIPHERY OF A BUILDING UPPER RIDGE OVER THE MIDWEST. THIS COMBINED WITH SLOWLY INCREASING LOW-LEVEL MOISTURE AND INSTABILITY ACROSS GEORGIA WILL LEAD TO A MORE FAVORABLE ENVIRONMENT FOR THUNDERSTORMS DURING THE NEXT 24 HOURS. THUNDERSTORMS THIS AFTERNOON ARE EXPECTED TO BE OF THE PULSE VARIETY...BUT BECAUSE OF RELATIVELY COLD AIR ALOFT...-8C AT 500MB...SOME THUNDERSTORMS COULD PRODUCE HAIL. LIFTED INDICES BY AFTERNOON ARE FORECAST TO BE IN THE -3 RANGE ACROSS NORTHWEST GEORGIA WITH CAPES OF 2500 TO 3000. THE LACK OF ANY ORGANIZED SURFACE OR UPPER AIR WIND FIELD SHOULD INHIBIT THE DEVELOPMENT OF MORE THAN JUST ISOLATED SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS. LITTLE TO NO THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT IS EXPECTED ACROSS CENTRAL GEORGIA TODAY. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY THERE WILL BE AN INCREASING THREAT FOR THUNDERSTORMS THROUGH SATURDAY...ESPECIALLY FOR THE PERIOD MONDAY THROUGH THURSDAY.
