SHORT TERM
(Today through Saturday)
Issued at 335 AM EDT Fri Apr 19 2024
Key Messages:
- Scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms will move across N GA late tonight and early Friday morning.
- More thunderstorms will accompany a cold front sinking into N GA this afternoon and evening. Some of these storms may be strong.
A large upper low will continue to march E across Ontario and S Hudson Bay. Over the local area, upper NW flow will become more zonal today and tonight. At the surface, a cold front from the OH Valley to the Arklatex region will gradually sink SE into N GA this afternoon and evening.
After a lull in convection late Thursday evening, scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms have developed across N AL during the past couple of hours. With little in the way of dynamic support, this activity is being supported by low-level convergence and fairly decent nighttime instability. Activity was initially moving almost due E, but now appears to be moving more ESE to SW. Instability appears to be slowly waning with increasing CIN. However, expect at least shower activity to hold together as this convection moves toward the Atlanta metro area, and isolated thunderstorms will remain possible.
A broken line of stronger thunderstorms is ongoing along and just ahead of the surface front, with the most organized storms over W TN. This activity, along with leading outflows, will continue to march SE toward N GA through the day. The models are not handling ongoing convection particularly well, but still expect scattered storms to enter N GA by early afternoon. The extent of these storms will likely be affected by how worked over the atmosphere is from early morning convection along with persistence of residual cloud cover. A few storms could be strong. Wind shear will not be particularly strong. The main threats from thunderstorms will be gusty winds and hail.
Cooler air will begin to filter into the area from the N early Saturday morning. High temperatures on Saturday are forecast to range from near 70 across the extreme N to near 90 SE of Macon.
Scattered thunderstorms will be possible along and S of the cold front generally near and S of Macon, mainly Saturday afternoon.

LONG TERM
(Saturday night through Thursday)
Issued at 335 AM EDT Fri Apr 19 2024
Highlights:
-Another round of rain expected Sunday with thunder chances confined to south GA.
-Drier and cooler conditions return next week.
Lingering showers and thunderstorms may still be present at the start of the long term period (Saturday night) with a frontal boundary draped across south-central GA. A weak midlevel impulse will move across the Southeast on Sunday accompanied by an additional wave of moisture. This will ramp up rain chances during the day Sunday for much of North and Central Georgia. Latest ensemble guidance continues to back off on sufficient instability and forecast soundings indicate generally stable conditions setting up across the northern two-thirds of the forecast area. Thus, elected to keep any thunder chances confined to far south-central GA (south of a line from Columbus to Macon). A secondary more prominent shortwave will drop south late Sunday accompanied by a cold front which will bring an end to precipitation from west to east. Much drier and cooler air will filter in behind as surface high pressure builds across much of the south and eastern U.S. Dry conditions will prevail through most of the work week with rain potentially creeping back into the forecast in time for the weekend.
Cooler conditions can be expected on Sunday as a result of clouds and rain with high temperatures largely in the upper 50s to 60s (70s across extreme southeast GA). In the wake of the cold frontal passage, temperatures on Monday will be in the 60s with low temperatures 40s. Temperatures will moderate through the week with forecast high temperatures climbing back into the 70s and low 80s across south-central GA with forecast low temperatures in the 50s (and 40s in the NE GA mountains).

Isold thunder possible in and around ATL this afternoon. Have added a tempo group for this afternoon/evening. Winds will remain on the west side. Some patchy few/sct MVFR possible towards 12Z, higher potential for bkn if it actually rains at ATL. Sct-bkn cu around 035-050 tomorrow afternoon with any widespread precip after 00Z Sun.

18Z Update
Low-med confidence for tsra at ATL this afternoon. High confidence remaining elements.
