4/19/20-4/20/20 Severe Weather

HRRR ticked a hair south from the 6z on severe parameters, still is close for much later on one frame and is looking problematic in southern SC.

Rain totals are really going to add up in the metro area though.

Yeah probably about 1.5-3 in Atlanta, 1-2 to the north, and 2-4 inches in the south metro if I were to guess. Nothing like in central Georgia and Alabama though. Probably will see 4-6 inches there with isolated 6-8 totals and maybe even an occasional total higher then that.
 
The NAM made a pretty decent shift southward.

In fact, if it were correct, the round of storms later today / tonight will miss the BHM - ATL corridor largely to the south.
 
It seems from what you guys are posting that a lot of the threat seems to mostly be east of Mississippi, is that right or since a lot of you guys are from AL/GA that's just what a lot of the conversations been about?

Welcome. There will be significant threat in central MS. Most posters are East if your location, glad to have another Mississippi poster onboard

I hope so, I don’t want anymore rain. Currently 48 with light rain. Just a awful day.

So, BMX is showing the severe threat ending around midnight for all of their forecast counties. WSBTV in ATL shows another line coming through my area around 2-3 am... I tend to monitor both since I’m on the state line... why the discrepancy with another line early Monday as shown by WSB in ATLANTA?

I guess it's going to take 2-3 hrs to get from the state line to your house.

WSB (and the other Atlanta Stations) are modeling for the Atlanta DMA. which is large. BMX is forecasting for their CWA. Also keep in mind Central vs Eastern time zones.
 
Im guessing everybody can probably tell were the warm front will likely be stationed Screenshot_20200419-102348_Chrome.jpg
 
I know we are not under the gun here like you guys down south but i did find this 1030 update a little intriguing from MHX.


Winds becoming more from the S this afternoon,
both temps and dewpoints will increase slightly higher than what
was in the forecasted...therefore increasing instability for
this afternoon. CAPE values are expected to reach btw 700-1000
J/kg, LI values around -4C with sufficient bulk shear for late
this afternoon...can lead to strong to severe thunderstorms.
SPC continues to have the area in marginal south of HWY 264 with
a slight risk along our southern counties.
