Thank you!
I just told them that. They responded by saying that yesterday downtown got flooded but they got none. They were originally hoping they’d get enough rain this weekend to be able to leave it and take a trip but are now afraid it might ruin the seed if they don't get enough rain and aren’t there to water.

But:
1) I thought ATL area was forecasted to only get scattered storms yesterday (50% pops), which did verify. So them getting none yesterday wasn’t a surprise.

2) Am I correct in saying that the next few days are forecasted to be quite wet everywhere in metro ATL as opposed to just scattered showers?

3) If so, the lack of rain at their place yesterday isn’t a reason to worry about getting missed the next few days. Thus they should not water and could even travel without worry if they want. Is this correct?

Yeah, I missed all of the storms yesterday, too.

That said, the lowest rain chances per FFC for metro Atlanta on any given day for the next week is 50%. Several days, including Monday, are 90%. That's quite bullish and tells me that widespread rains will fall with certainty over at least several days over the next week. And, the chances of heavy rain in T-storms are also quite high.

Unsurprisingly, there is significant model support as well.

Meso discussion with an interesting snippet

“Increasing storm coverage may result in a southward-acceleration of the cold front across southern VA/northern NC through late afternoon, which could result in a broader area of strong but generally subsevere gusts and localized wind-damage potential.”

Anyone seen that before ?
