Our local National Weather Service office in Peachtree City, GA, has produced a unique long-range forecast for this week, written all in Haiku. I appreciate their creativity in what is a very boring forecast situation, and I think they have done a great job showing the “rinse and repeat” nature of our daily thunderstorms (one of which has just passed through Athens as I write this).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

LONG TERM \/Wednesday through Monday\/...\n\nTo avoid a redundant, monotonous, and repetitive monologue regarding the long term forecast, the following discussion will be provided through a series of haikus...\n\nExtended forecast:\nIt`s warm and wet in Georgia,\nwith no end in sight.\n\nThe forecast remains\nunchanging, uneventful,\nsteady everyday.\n\nInsignificant\nsynoptic influences\nplanned for the Southeast.\n\nWith no real focus,\nexpect a rinse and repeat\ndiurnal<\/a> forecast.\n\nAbundant moisture<\/a>,\nprecipitable water<\/a>\nclose to two inches.\n\nHigh temps near ninety,\nforty to sixty percent\nchance of rain each day.\n\nScattered<\/a> thunderstorms\nforecast each afternoon with\ngusts and heavy rain.\n\nMost storms should be weak,\nbut isolated<\/a> severe\ncannot be ruled out.\n\nAlso possible\nis isolated<\/a> flooding\nwith persistent rains.\n\nA mid-level ridge<\/a>\nwill begin to be displaced\nby a trough<\/a> next week.\n\nHow far the trough<\/a> sinks\nis yet to be determined.\nOnly time will tell.\n\nThiem\n\n<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
