This bulk download tool provides the NWS text
in a raw form, hopefully directly usable by your processing system.
You can either provide a complete 6-character PIL/AFOS ID or provide
the 3-character base ID (e.g., AFD
). The start and end
dates represent 00 UTC for those dates. The Zip format is useful as
the filenames will have the product timestamp, which is useful for
when the product format has ambiguous timestamps.
755 FXUS62 KFFC 060631 AAA AFDFFC Area Forecast Discussion...UPDATED National Weather Service Peachtree City GA 131 AM EST Sun Nov 6 2022 ...New 06Z Aviation Discussion... .SHORT TERM... (This afternoon through Sunday) Issued at 242 PM EDT Sat Nov 5 2022 Cold front is currently situated across the Mississippi River Valley. High pressure continues across the western Atlantic with a ridge axis stretching into much of Georgia. Regional radar shows the leading edge of the precip out ahead of the cold front. This system has significantly weakened since yesterday and the hi-res models also indicating additional weakening as it approaches the AL/GA state line. Light shra are also coming in off the deep easterly fetch. These showers will mainly impact eastern portions of the CWA while the showers associated with the front should impact the NW and far W portions of the CWA...leaving a drier slot across the central CWA. QPF will be very light and average under a tenth of an inch. Some instability is noted across the eastern portions of the CWA, so have kept the mention of isold thunderstorms in this area. Low clouds and fog will develop again overnight. The fog/clouds should break by the late morning/early afternoon. NListemaa && .LONG TERM... (Monday morning through next Friday) Issued at 242 PM EDT Sat Nov 5 2022 Unseasonably warm temps will start us off Monday due to the upper level ridging that will be over our area through early this week. With this daily highs will be threatened as temps reach into the 80s. Like previously mentioned a CAD looks to set up and move into our area mid week which should help cool off our temperatures just a bit. No real change look to happen until late this coming week though. The main focus will be on the low pressure systems that looks to start to set up over the Atlantic off the east coast of Florida. Models have it crossing Florida into the gulf by Friday. After that, uncertainty lies over where the the low will move, so stay tuned for further updates. Either way, we will see some affects from this system with gusty winds as the pressure gradient tightens up. PoPs, like the last update, are gradually introduced into the weekend as the low moves over Florida. Looking beyond this system, models are favoring a cold frontal passage, dropping temps significantly into the later part of the weekend, but this is 7-8 days out so we will see how well that plays out. Hernandez && .AVIATION... (06Z TAFS) Issued at 154 AM EDT Sun Nov 6 2022 IFR cigs spreading west into most TAF sites by 08Z. Some LIFR cigs possible as well.
