LithiaWx Posted April 3, 2017 Author Share Posted April 3, 2017 Reduced threat trending towards a small event. West GA is out, maybe east GA and west SC can get some but that's about it. Stick a fork in this system. Huge amount of rain headed to GA though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kayman Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 The velocity has gotten noisy now with the cell associated with the TW in Fulton. I am under the impression the rotation was a brief spin up. However, this line is quasi-linear cells in make up so, any of the cells can start to rotate briefly with a possible tornado as it continues to approach Atlanta.

kayman Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 Also the main threats remains to be damaging winds and possible microbursts/downbursts with the storms as the QLCS go through Metro Atlanta. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
downeastnc Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 The greater ATL metro area is getting hammered pretty good, and little spin ups can occur just about anywhere along the line, right now though best chance of that happening looks to be around East Point....

downeastnc Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 This coming Wed has MHX NWS spooked havent seen a AFD like this in a while.... Wednesday through Thursday...Dangerous severe weather aprroach possible during this period. Large scale upper trough amplification is expected over the Eastern US Wed/Thur in response to upstream flow and phasing jet streams. This will result in powerful cyclogenesis across the central Appalachian region to the lower Great Lakes through Thursday. Some timing differences remain with exact placement of synoptic features during this time frame, though it appears that a potentially widespread severe weather outbreak could affect the region. The aforementioned trough attains a strong negative tilt as it swings through the Southeast US and as a result deep rich moisture gets advected into the region in tandem with very strong dynamics to support severe thunderstorms. Tremendous height and pressure falls occur early Thursday as the sfc low deepens to around 980MB to the north. 03/00Z GFS/CMC/ECM global suite continue to indicate 850H flow of 50-70 kt aided by 110+ kt 300MB jet, and PW values AOA 1.5". Even if timing of the severe threat is relegated to Wednesday night and early Thursday, instability parameters are quite high due to the sharp height falls yielding steep mid level lapse rates, and sfc TD`s rising through the 60s overnight Wednesday. Hodographs are quite troubling in that strong SRH values aoa 400 M2/S2 are fcst by the NAM/ECMWF with low LCLs present. If all these ingredients come together the threat for a few strong tornadoes and strong damaging winds would be present. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jrips27 Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 Probability of Watch Issuance...80 percent SUMMARY...Tornado threat appears to be increasing ahead of a progressive MCS from eastern GA into SC. Tornado watch may be issued soon to address this threat. DISCUSSION...Convective temperatures appear to have been breached across the warm sector over central GA well ahead of a progressive MCS. Convection is evolving/deepening within a strongly sheared and increasingly buoyant air mass that should support supercell development. A few updrafts have penetrated levels necessary for lightning discharge and further maturation is expected over the next few hours. There is increasing concern that a few tornadic supercells will evolve ahead of the forced line and spread into SC later this afternoon. Isolated QLCS tornadoes and wind damage may also be noted along the squall line. Tornado watch will likely be required to address this threat.

SharonA Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 Once again a decent couplet + TOR warning blew its energy on Carroll County and was all worn out by the time it hit me in western Douglas County. 20 miles west of here people were posting pics on social media of SVR winds, tree damage, a fire station with structural damage - we got regular non-SVR-levels of wind blasts and some moderate rain. I'm not complaining, there are still plenty of small branches to pick up I've seen some comments elsewhere to the effect that tornado touchdown report(s) in Paulding County were a hoax call to EMS? Now to see how much this cloud cover hanging around impacts the afternoon heating. There's still light rain with intermittent thunder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
