Fxus62 kffc 231847 afdffc area forecast discussion national weather service peachtree city ga 247 pm edt Fri aug 23 2019 Afternoon area forecast discussion... Short term tonight through Saturday night Weak frontal boundary continues to sag south across far northern ga this afternoon. The front will move slowly southward overnight, and should stall across central portions of the cwfa overnight or into tomorrow. In the mid levels, mostly zonal flow will allow several pieces of shortwave energy to move quickly east within the flow, interacting with the stalled boundary. Scattered to numerous showers and thunderstorms are anticipated for the next two days. Widespread severe weather is not anticipated, but a few stronger storms or an isolated severe storm will be possible. Gusty winds and frequent lightning will be possible with the stronger storms. In addition, pwats of 2"+ with bl winds of less than 15kt will allow for slow moving heavy rainers. Nlistemaa Long term Sunday through Friday To start the new week, a potential tropical low pressure system, currently invest 98l with a 70% chance of development over the next 48 hours, will be making its way northward off the southeastern atlantic coastline. At the same time, a strong surface high pressure will be over maine new brunswick and moving eastward. The high to the nne and the low to the ese will form a pressure gradient with northeasterly winds against the lee side of the appalachian mnts, causing cold air damming and forcing a wedge front to push through most of the forecast area and replace the prepositioned stationary front. This will be our best chance of breaking our current streak of 28 days of temperatures at or above 70 for atlanta, barring any strong outflows later today. This is the 13th longest streak of its kind on record going back to 1978. With the continuing fetch of warm moist air moving overhead from the gulf. Pwats around and over 2" are expected through the beginning of next week. Combined with the extra forcing from the frontal boundary should create likely rain chances with scattered convective showers and thunderstorms until the front begins to lift on Tuesday.

Afterwards, a mid-level trough will sweep across the southeastern conus, returning the forecast area to conditions we've known and 'loved' over the past several weeks. The southwesterly mid-level flow will continue to bring gulf moisture into the region, continuing at least scattered showers and thunderstorms through at least Wednesday. High pressure is then expected to follow by Thursday and Friday with at least slight chances for showers and thunderstorms. It's currently unclear exactly how much drier air will filter into the forecast area with this next weather pattern as things diverge within the model guidance, however, as the time frame gets closer and other synoptic features come and go we should get a better feel if a break from the rains can be expected. Thiem Aviation 18z update... greater cover of shra tsra expected this afternoon. Activity could linger well into the evening hours. About the same coverage expected tomorrow afternoon.

These are not intended to be fact, they are my opinions. 4) Small programs that generate result presented on a web page. Like any computer program, these may and in some cases do have errors. Almost all of these also make simplifying assumptions so they are not totally accurate even if there are no errors. Please verify all results. 5) Weather information is from numerious of sources and is presented automatically. It is not checked for accuracy either by anyone at L-36.com or by the source which is typically the US Government. See the NOAA web site for their disclaimer. Finally, tide and current data on this site is from 2007 and 2008 data bases, which may contain even older data. Changes in harbors due to building or dredging change tides and currents and for that reason many of the locations presented are no longer supported by newer data bases. For example, there is very little tidal current data in newer data bases so current data is likely wrong to some extent. This data is NOT FOR NAVIGATION. See the XTide disclaimer for details. In addition, tide and current are influenced by storms, river flow, and other factors beyond the ability of any predictive program.
