    323 PM EDT Mon May 05 2025

    Areas affected...portions of northern Mid-Atlanitc and central
    Appalachians to Lake Erie

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 051846Z - 060045Z

    SUMMARY...Training of showers and thunderstorms from the northern
    mid-Atlantic and central Appalachians to the southern shore of
    Lake Erie may result in isolated to widely scattered areas of
    flash flooding through the early evening. Rainfall rates of 1-2
    in/hr are expected.

    DISCUSSION...Visible satellite and regional radar imagery from
    1830Z showed scattered showers and thunderstorms extending from
    northern VA into northern MD, northwestward into PA, western NY
    and eastern OH. These showers/storms were located northeast of a
    closed mid to upper-level low over the OH Valley with low level
    southeasterly flow advecting moisture northwestward across the
    region. Broadly diffluent flow aloft was in place to the northeast
    of the closed low, helping increase synoptic scale lift over the
    region. Blended TPW imagery showed that PW values ranged from ~1.4
    inches to the southeast over northern MD to ~0.7 inches over
    eastern OH. SPC mesoanalysis data from 18Z showed MLCAPE was
    generally weak at 500-1000 J/kg with cloud cover or lower moisture
    values limiting instability to some degree.

    However, flash flood guidance values across a large portion of the
    region were about 1.0 to 1.5 inch/hr or slightly less and
    similarly oriented low level and mean steering flow wind vectors
    were supportive of repeating cells. While 925-850 mb winds were
    generally weaker than the mean steering flow, low level axes of
    confluence will support lines of showers/thunderstorms with a
    tendency for cell repeating and short term training. The
    environment is supportive of 1-2 in/hr rainfall rates and some
    indications from the RAP support a minor increase in the low level
    flow toward 00Z which could help increase the threat for
    backbuilding cells. The flash flood threat is expected to be
    isolated to widely scattered in nature through 01Z.

    NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD
    638 PM EDT Mon May 05 2025

    Areas affected...portions of eastern VA into the DMV and far
    eastern WV

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 052235Z - 060300Z

    Summary...Training convection will be capable of hourly totals of
    1-3" with short-term (3-hr) totals as high as 2-4". Isolated to
    scattered instances of flash flooding are possible (and may be
    locally significant in sensitive urban/mountainous terrain).

    Discussion...Radar and GOES-East satellite imagery indicate the
    proliferation of convection across portions of eastern VA/NC over
    the past several hours, moving fairly rapidly (~25 kts) towards
    the N-NE within nearly unidirectional flow on the eastern
    periphery of a large, deep layer (850-200 mb) closed low centered
    over IL/IN/KY. The mesoscale environment in the vicinity and
    downstream of the aforementioned convection is characterized by
    SBCAPE of 1000-2000 J/kg, PWATs of 0.8-1.3" (between the 75th and
    90th percentile, per IAD sounding climatology), and deep layer
    (0-6km shear) of 20-40 kts (per 22z SPC SFCOA analysis). The
    strongest cells have been capable of impressive instantaneous
    rainfall rates of 3-5"/hr (per MRMS estimates), which has resulted
    in estimated hourly rainfall totals of up to 2.5" (where deeper
    convective cells have been able to occasionally train, mainly to
    the east of I-95 in eastern VA).

    Recent hi-res CAMs have not handled the evolution of convection
    particularly well, and recent observational trends (including
    continued overshooting/cooling cloud tops via GOES-East imagery)
    suggest that localized hourly totals of 1-3" will continue to
    manifest farther north (into the more sensitive DMV region) with
    storm propagation (as a pool of 1500-2000 J/kg of SBCAPE remains
    untapped). While both of the hourly updating CAMs (HRRR/RRFS) are
    handling the convection poorly, the 18z HREF suite does still give
    a good idea of the potential for excessive rainfall through 03z
    (with 40-km neighborhood probabilities for 2" and 3" exceedance of
    20-30% and ~10%, respectively). Given locally sensitive terrain
    (per FFGs as low as 0.75-1.50" and 1.50-2.50" for 1-hr and 3-hr
    periods, respectively) over urbanized terrain along and near I-95
    and over portions of the Appalachians in the vicinity of northern
    VA, western MD, and far eastern WV, isolated to scattered
    instances of flash flooding are possible (and may be locally
    significant, should 2-4" totals occur over the most sensitive
    localities).

    NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD
    1047 PM EDT Mon May 05 2025

    Areas affected...Central & Eastern NM...Cap Rock & Northern
    Permian Basin of TX...

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 060245Z - 060830Z

    SUMMARY...Streaks of thunderstorms with repeating flanking line
    development will become increasingly efficient with moistening
    profiles. Increasing rates to 1.5-1.75" with 1.5-3" totals
    resulting in widely scattered incidents of possible flash flooding.

    DISCUSSION...GOES WV continues to show fairly static deep upper
    low across east-central AZ with trof extending southward as
    stronger 120-130kt 250mb jet undercuts it resulting in broad
    downstream diffluence across the Southern High Plains into W TX.=20
    An embedded vorticity center can be seen near the SW Heel of NM
    starting to sharpen, ready to lift northeastward providing even
    further mid to upper level forcing through strong DPVA. As a
    result a strong 995-6 surface low exists in the vicinity of the
    Davis mountains with a strong 50-60 Td gradient across it in less
    than a few miles. This dryline extends north toward an
    intersection with old stationary front between CNM and GDP (which
    extends along the Sacramento Mtns toward ABQ and southeastward
    across the Pecos Valley toward ECU/ERV. Isallobaric response in
    the lowest levels is supporting very strong convergence along the
    axis of both the dry line and stationary front providing very
    solid moisture and instability transport, with 40-50kts of
    southeasterly flow off the Rio Grande Valley into the W Texas
    Panhandle; PWs are trickling into the 1.25" range and capped 2000+
    J/kg CAPE (a subsequent MPD may be required if/when cap breaks
    across southern Permian/Pecos River Valley).

    North of the front/dryline intersection, flow is backed further
    out of the east-northeast to northeast at similar 20-40kts from
    surface to boundary layer. The flux into the front is pooling to
    .75-1" PW and support a narrow ribbon of 1000 J/kg as far north as
    ABQ. As such, strong thunderstorms have been developing along the
    stationary front and given deep layer steering, have been lifting
    north (further west) and northeast (across the northern Permian
    Basin to southern Cap Rock).=20

    Given the upstream forcing remains upstream, the surface response
    has locked the front and these localized convergence maxima to
    support back-building or flanking redevelopment that generally
    follow similar paths. Initially, large hail and gusty winds have
    been the primary factor, but the continued flux and rainfall has
    been locally moistening the profile and increasing rainfall
    efficiency. Combine this with continued expanding divergence
    aloft, upscale growth into clusters and 'wedges' in satellite
    appearance will increase, though the source/redevelopment regions
    will decouple as the DPVA and FGEN ascent lifts north and
    northeast. As such, rates up to 1.5"/hr will become possible and
    with training/repeating, streaks of 1.5-3" will become more likely
    across north-central NM into the Cap Rock.=20

    AHPS 7-10 precipiation anomalies show much of these areas have
    seen well above normal rainfall (200-400%) and NASA SPoRT 0-40cm
    soil saturation graphics denote this as well rising into the
    70-80th percentiles, especially further north and east across the
    Cap Rock into the Big Country. As such, scattered incidents of
    flash flooding should become possible through the overnight
    period.

    107 AM EDT Tue May 06 2025

    Areas affected...Stockton & Edwards Plateau of Western Texas...

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 060505Z - 060930Z

    SUMMARY...Continued risk of regenerative thunderstorms along the dryline/surface front. Deep layer steering may support
    training/repeating locally for streaks of 2-3" totals and possible

    DISCUSSION...GOES WV suite depicts very deep (3-3.5 Std. Dev.)
    closed low generally centered in the Lower Colorado River Valley
    and is currently reorienting as very strong shortwave energy
    rotates around the western to southwestern edge of current center.
    This is elongating the overall low favorably across eastern AZ
    into much of NM to support strong divergent/diffluence pattern
    with 100-120kt jet streak rounding the base of the upper-low in NW
    Old Mexico. In also supporting/broadening updraft strength for
    any convection that does develop, it is has be strengthening solid
    moisture return through the Rio Grande and Pecos Valley through
    the southern High Plains. Strong easterly and confluent
    southeastern flow at 15-20kts exist across much of north-central
    to southeast NM.

    CIRA LPW denotes deepest moisture remains upstream across the
    western TX panhandle through the Guadeloupe Mtns with nose of
    .5-.75" sfc-850mb wedge trying to filter in. Concurrently, the
    850-700mb layer from the southeast on 35-40kts of flow (per VWP)
    is reaching .5"...reaching near 1" totals across southeast NM.=20
    EML's are steepening lapse rates to support sufficient lapse rates
    to support 500-1000 MUCAPE pooling along the stationary frontal
    boundary toward a surface low in the northern Rio Grande Valley
    north of ONM. As such, orographic ascent and localized
    convergence is sparking widely scattered thunderstorms in the
    vicinity of the frontal zone. Weak isallobaric pressure falls aid inflow/maintenance of updrafts for a few hours to over-come the
    strong effective bulk shear in the weakly unstable environment.=20
    As such, steering flow in diffluent pattern supports short-term
    training of the updrafts oriented more south to north across
    northern NM, while more SW to NE in the vicinity of the Sacramento
    Range into eastern NM. Rates of .75"/hr and 1-2 hours of
    repeating, may support localized totals of 1.5-2.5" and given
    dry/hard ground conditions has the potential to exceed the lower
    FFG values (1-1.5"/hr, 1-2.5"/3hrs).=20

    Eventually, shortwave energy will round the base and the
    associated jet will increase southwesterly flow and the frontal
    zone will start to lift east and northeast with further enhanced
    moisture flux convergence along the leading edge. This should
    help to expand overall coverage, but may limit the increased
    duration locally into the early morning hours. Isolated incidents
    of flash flooding remain possible through morning.

    155 AM EDT Tue May 06 2025

    Areas affected...Central PA...West Central Upstate NY...

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 060555Z - 061100Z

    SUMMARY...Additional 1-2" of rainfall in 1-2 hours across recently
    saturated soils and low FFG pose possible localized flash flooding
    over next few

    DISCUSSION...GOES-E WV shows an eastward extension of the deep
    upper low, extending across WV into central MD providing increased
    downstream DPVA ascent and a localized increase in low level WAA
    across MD into central PA. 05z surface analysis shows the cold
    front remains fairly banked up along the front range/Blue Ridge of
    the Appalachians into central PA connecting to a triple point
    south of BFD, with warm front bisecting PA just north of SEG
    toward the Lehigh Valley. Along with the slight increase in LLJ
    to 30kts, increased low level moisture is bringing back 1.0-1.25"
    total PWats and some weak instability about 250-500 J/kg. Solid
    southwesterly flow along/behind the cold front further strengthens
    FGEN ascent through the area. As such, recent RADAR and 10.3um
    EIR show increasing shallow convective cells across the
    Mason-Dixon line from RSP to DMW, but extend northward through
    much of the warm sector in central PA.=20

    Deep layer steering along/ahead of the cold front will support
    training of cells; with 1"/hr rates, so with length supportive of
    1-2 hours of training across a narrow axis. This may result in an
    additional 1-2" in less than 2hrs across areas that already had
    some heavy rainfall this afternoon, especially further north into
    south-central NY. The combination over saturated ground
    conditions and 1-3hr FFG values of .5-1.25 and .75 to 2,
    respectivly; suggest flash flooding may be possible through the
    remainder of the overnight period.

    Areas affected...TX Big Country through Hill Country...Adj Ext
    Southweset OK...

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 060800Z - 061400Z

    SUMMARY...Broad area of ascent across much of TX ahead of
    anomalously deep closed low exiting the Southwest. Scattered
    incidents of flash flooding possible with localized 2-3" totals
    across recently saturated grounds/low FFG.=20

    DISCUSSION...GOES-E WV shows core of 3-3.5 Std Dev. closed low is
    finally starting to translate eastward given upstream kicker
    resulting in very broad downstream diffluence/divergence area to
    shift out of the High Plains into the Big Country and eastern
    Edwards Plateau. A convectively reinforced shortwave is starting
    to shear along the northeast quadrant of the low and pivot into E
    NM still providing an axis of 700mb isentropic ascent/WAA channel
    to maintain elevated convection/broadening moderate shield
    precipitation across the Rolling Plains into the Big Country and
    Red River Valley. Activity is scattered and generally lighter
    with occasional embedded cores capable of 1"+/hr rates but
    increased duration over greatest saturated soil conditions (where
    precip anomalies are 300-500% of normal and remain in the upper
    90th percentiles of saturation). As such, limited infiltration
    will result in some enhanced run-off, but likely be limited in
    coverage to those random/scattered elevated cores.

    Southward into the Edwards Plateau/Hill Country...
    A broad/strong axis of DPVA ahead of the main height-falls is
    maintaining the 999mb low near/south of MAF, the stationary front
    is starting to lift northeast as a warm front ahead of the low and
    the dry line across the Western TX Panhandle is shifting eastward
    increasing moisture convergence ahead of it. Warm moist winds out
    of the Rio Grande Valley continue to advect 1.3-1.5" total PWats
    (loaded mainly below 850mb) will continue to be highly confluent
    even as they veer more southerly/southwesterly over the next few
    hours. Higher unstable air with MUCAPE of 2000+ j/kg will
    isentropically ascend across the front and maintain stronger thunderstorms/clusters along the boundary as they shift eastward.=20
    Rates of 2"/hr are probable, though 1.5" may fall in 15-30 minutes
    given 06z HRRR forecast and given some upstream cells may allow
    for two rounds and/or flanking line repeating/training resulting
    in spots of 2-3.5" totals mainly near/just north of the front
    across the Edwards Plateau toward the Hill country. This area has
    experienced less heavy rainfall than further north, so soil ratios
    are much more supportive of infiltration, but the shear intense
    rates have a solid probability to result in scattered incidents of
    flash flooding through daybreak.=20

    Mesoscale Precipitation Discussion 0232
    NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD
    935 AM EDT Tue May 06 2025

    Areas affected...South-Central and Eastern Texas

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 061331Z - 061931Z

    SUMMARY...Increasing thunderstorm coverage, including scattered
    supercells, along a lifting warm front are expected to congeal
    with thunderstorms from an eastward moving cold front to produce
    locally 3"+ rainfall amounts. Flash flooding is possible with the
    potential for locally considerable impacts through early this
    afternoon should the heaviest rainfall occur over vulnerable urban
    locations.

    DISCUSSION...GOES-E WV depicts clearly a deep closed low sliding
    over the southern High Plains and producing broad ascent
    throughout the south-central U.S., amplified by the nose of a
    110kt upper jet reaching over the Concho Valley per the 12z RAP
    analysis. At the surface, a lifting warm front is evident in
    recent METAR observations throughout southern and eastern TX,
    between Austin and San Antonio at 12z. It is along and just north
    of this boundary where the greatest potential for discrete
    supercells are possible before quickly merging with an approaching
    line of storms along the advancing cold front through 17z-19z.
    MRMS highlights current storms of producing locally up to 2"/hr
    rainfall rates, but as these storms expand, these rates will
    likely cover a larger area and more likely to lead to flash
    flooding impacts. However, as this line moves further into eastern
    TX by midday, eastward progression will slow as flow becomes more
    uniform out of the west-southwest along a stalled out boundary,
    supporting back-building cells. This places areas near College
    Station on eastward toward the TX-LA as having the greatest
    potential for locally considerable impacts. It is this area where
    the 06z HREF depicts 20-40% chances for 3"+ amounts through 18z,
    with heavy rainfall likely continuing after 18z.

    Recent HRRR runs highlight hourly totals of 1-4" through 19z,
    which would occur within somewhat compromised terrain and where
    FFG of 1-3" per 1-hr and 2-4" per 3-hr exists. This seems
    reasonable given the current radar representation and environment
    given the widespread 1.6-1.9" PWATs.

    1102 AM EDT Tue May 06 2025

    Areas affected...Northern Texas and Southern/Central Oklahoma

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 061501Z - 062101Z

    SUMMARY...Broad area of moderate rainfall with embedded
    thunderstorms and heavier rates could lead to scattered flash
    flooding with more widespread nuisance flooding through this
    afternoon.

    DISCUSSION...Strong ascent continues east of the closed low moving
    over the southern Rockies/High Plains, while a squall line pushes
    eastward across Texas. Ahead of this squall line, some scattered
    supercells are possible within an elevated warm sector and MUCAPE
    of 1,000-2,000 J/kg. Rainfall rates per MRMS have generally
    remained below 1.5"/hr, but this area along the Red River Valley
    has experienced saturated ground conditions as of late. NASA SPoRT
    LIS 0-40 cm soil moisture percentiles are generally in the 70-95th
    range (lower in northeast TX and southeast OK). The longer
    duration of moderate to heavy rainfall (pockets of 1-2"/hr)
    expected through this afternoon could lead to localized flash
    flooding where terrain and ground conditions are most susceptible.
    However, even where flash flooding does not occur, nuisance
    flooding and ponding of water in fields/near roads is possible.

    Recent HRRR runs depict 3-hrly totals up to 1.5" possible in the
    highlighted MPD area, with some locations already recording
    0.5-1.0" since 12z. 3-hrly FFGs in the area are less than 2.5"
    from a line between DAL and OKC on westward, with eastern sections
    of the MPD highlighted by 3-hrly FFGs of 3-4". PWATs over the 90th climatological percentile extend northward to the Red River, with
    values over 1.7" into north-central TX ahead of the squall line.
    Storms developing in this region of better moisture and strong
    southern 850mb flow of 40-50kts in eastern TX will surge northward
    overriding a mid-level warm front and add to the heavier mostly
    stratiform rainfall through this afternoon with embedded
    convection leading to the isolated flash flooding threat.

    Areas affected...Northern Mid-Atlantic into the Interior Northeast

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 061625Z - 062225Z

    SUMMARY...Developing convection this afternoon is expected to
    repeat over areas of the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic where recent
    rainfall has lowered flash flood guidance. Isolated rainfall
    totals over 2 inches could lead to scattered areas of flash
    flooding, with the most likely impact along the NY-PA border and
    nearby areas.

    DISCUSSION...A closed low over the Upper Ohio Valley continues to
    churn and usher in broad southerly flow along the East Coast.
    PWATs are highest along the immediate East and into New England,
    where values range from 1.0-1.2" and near the 90th climatological
    percentile, but the greater mix of instability and shear exists
    just to the west from central New York to northern Maryland. Here,
    GOES-E visible imagery depicts broken cloud cover allowing for
    SBCAPE to increase over 1,000 J/kg in southeast PA, which
    coincides with where the deepest convection has developed over the
    last hour.

    Thunderstorms are expected to continue building (although
    scattered in nature) over the next few hours as instability
    continues to grow and expand northward. However, a focus in
    convection is possible along a weak frontal boundary/convergence
    axis. All of this activity will become more widespread in
    northeast PA/southern NY by about 20z once a shortwave rounding
    the base of the upper trough very quickly pushes over the recent.
    This increased ascent may allow for rainfall rates to approach
    2"/hr and broader coverage of moderate rain, but more importantly
    impact areas prone to flash flooding due to recent rainfall. NASA
    SPoRT LIS 0-40 cm soil moisture is above 98th percentile for much
    of northern PA and NY. This goes along with 3-hr FFG under 2"
    (even as low as 1" in localized areas). The 12z HREF highlights
    impressive probabilities for exceeding this FFG along the PA-NY
    border just west of Binghamton by 21z this afternoon. Will
    continue to monitor rainfall rates in case the need for more considerable/significant language is needed this afternoon.

    Areas affected...Eastern Texas and Louisiana

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding likely

    Valid 061859Z - 070059Z

    SUMMARY...Organized line of thunderstorms with hourly rates up to
    3 inches expected to continue sliding eastward while additional
    merging cells along a warm front increase the potential for 5 inch
    totals, likely resulting in areas of flash flooding.

    DISCUSSION...GOES-E CH9 WV loop this afternoon depicts a
    picturesque upper low churning over the southern High Plains with
    an expansive area of increased ascent extending to the east and
    north, with a well-organized line of thunderstorms entering
    eastern TX along a cold front. Additionally, a surface warm front
    extends eastward from the squall line across southern LA, with
    low-to-mid 70s dew points south of the front and 60s north. PWATs
    continue to creep upward and are generally 1.7-2.0" in the
    highlighted area, but will continue to rise above 2.0" across a
    larger region of the central Gulf Coast per the RAP. The 06z ECWMF
    highlights these values as exceeding the 99th percentile when
    compared to climatology.

    Rainfall totals up to 3 inches have been observed from this line
    near Round Rock, TX and are expected to maintain or increase in
    intensity through this evening given the increasing moisture and
    daytime instability being advected northward. Helping this
    northward advection is a potent 40-50kt 850mb jet extending into
    eastern TX as of 18z.

    Recent HRRR runs support the potential for hourly rates up to 3
    inches and 5 inch totals, with the 12z HREF highlighting
    widespread 20-50% chances for 3-hrly totals greater than 3 inches
    in the MPD area. Although, the HRRR has been developing too much
    leading convection compared to current radar data. Outside of the
    eastern extent of the Texas Triangle, where 3-hrly FFGs are under
    3 inches, much of LA does have elevated FFG that could inhibit the
    initial impacts of heavy rainfall. However, for southern sections
    of LA along the warm front, thunderstorms are anticipated to
    remain less progressive and oriented more west-east (similar to
    the mean wind) by this evening. Current convection near Baton
    Rouge shows this potential for slow-moving warm frontal storms
    that may continue and congeal with the approaching line. Scattered
    flash flooding is likely within this area, with greatest potential
    for significant impacts where convection is slower to progress on
    the southern flank from east-central TX through central LA.

    Areas affected...central NY to PA/NJ border

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 062230Z - 070400Z

    SUMMARY...Isolated to widely scattered areas of flash flooding
    will remain possible across a broad section of Upstate NY down to
    the PA/NJ border through 04Z. Peak hourly rainfall up to 1.0-1.5
    inches (especially early on) will be likely on an isolated basis.

    DISCUSSION...Radar imagery at 2230Z showed that a broken line of showers/thunderstorms extended from near Syracuse to the NY/PA/NJ
    border. A mesoscale axis of low level convergence to the west of
    Syracuse has resulted in a localized area of hourly rainfall in
    excess of 2 inches (north of Skaneateles) with surrounding
    locations in and around central NY to northeastern PA, in the 1-2
    inch range (in 60 minutes). Water vapor imagery showed a
    well-defined, negatively tilted shortwave trough swinging toward
    the north over eastern PA, to the east of a mid to upper-level low
    center over northwestern PA. Flow ahead of this feature was
    strongly diffluent, aiding in lift within a weakly unstable
    airmass (500-1000 J/kg MUCAPE), though infrared cloud tops have
    been warming over the past hour.

    Through 04Z, the shortwave spoke is forecast to lift northward
    into central NY, sending the broken convective line toward the
    north and east into the Catskills and Hudson Valley. There is a
    low end threat for south to north training as the line advances
    east, though advection of drier and more stable air into the
    region from the southwest should lessen this the heavy rain/flash
    flood threat with time over eastern portions of NY.

    Over central NY, weaker deeper layer mean flow will continue to be
    supportive of slower movement of heavy rain cores with the ongoing
    axis west of Syracuse expected to advance off toward the northeast
    over the next couple of hours. Meanwhile additional heavy rain may
    move in from the south through 04Z with peak rainfall rates
    lowering into the 0.5 to 1.0 in/hr range as instability diminishes
    with the loss of daytime heating. An additional 1-2 inches of rain
    (locally a little above 2 inches over central NY) is expected on a
    localized basis which may linger the flash flood threat for
    another few hours over northern PA/NJ into NY.

    Areas affected...eastern CA, southern NV, western AZ

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 062323Z - 070500Z

    SUMMARY...An increasing coverage of thunderstorms across portions
    of eastern CA, southern NV and western AZ over the next 2-4 hours
    will be capable of flash flooding. Rainfall of 0.25 to 0.50 inches
    in 15 minutes and storm totals of 1-2 inches are expected on a
    spotty basis.

    DISCUSSION...GOES West water vapor imagery placed a closed
    mid-level low over south-central NV at 23Z, advancing slowly to
    the south. The approach of this low and its southern elongation
    into CA has allowed low level winds to shift from a northerly
    direction this morning to southwesterly to its south, increasing
    low level theta-e values into the lower Colorado River Valley. The
    combination of surface heating and low level moisture advection
    has increased MLCAPE values into the 500-1000 J/kg range from
    southern NV into eastern CA and western AZ via the 23Z SPC
    mesoanalysis. Visible satellite and radar imagery showed a few
    thunderstorms along the NV/AZ border, co-located with severe and
    flash flood warnings. Visible satellite imagery also showed
    developing cumulus over eastern CA with a few early thunderstorms
    over the Mojave Desert.

    Continued low level moisture advection into eastern CA and western
    AZ is expected to allow for marginal increases in an already
    highly anomalous moisture axis (standardized PW anomalies of +3 to
    +4). Mean westerly deeper layer flow of roughly 10 kt from the
    west will be co-located with similarly oriented and slightly
    stronger 700 mb winds which will be likely to support repeating
    cells and brief upwind propagation of cells. Rainfall rates within
    this environment should be easily capable of producing 0.25 to
    0.50 inches of rain in 15 minutes or less, which could result in
    some flash flooding of low lying areas and normally dry washes.
    Storm total rainfall of 1 to 2 inches is expected through 05Z.

    Areas affected...southeastern TX into LA and central/southern MS

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding likely

    Valid 070110Z - 070700Z

    SUMMARY...Areas of heavy rain will continue a significant flash
    flood threat across portions of south-central LA into MS through
    07Z. Hourly rainfall in excess of 3 inches will be possible along
    with additional rainfall of 5 to 8 inches. These higher end
    rainfall totals could result in life-threatening conditions.

    DISCUSSION...Radar mosaic imagery at 0045Z depicted widespread
    thunderstorm coverage from western MS into central and southern
    LA, with a narrow tail of thunderstorms extending into the TX
    Coastal Plain. A weakening bowing segment was observed to be
    crossing into western LA with warming cloud tops over the past
    hour while a persistent area of cooling cloud tops has been
    observed from near JAS (far southeastern TX) to near and south of
    AEX (south-central LA), co-located with the low level overrunning
    via ~50 kt of 850 mb flow. The region from Newton County to
    Beauregard Parish has experienced hourly rainfall in excess of 3
    inches since 21Z and has MRMS-derived rainfall of 4-6 inches over
    the past 3 hours ending 00Z.

    As a pair of convectively induced mesoscale circulations, located
    on either side of the southern AR/MS border, advance toward the
    northeast within the 700-500 mb flow, the axis of strongest 850 mb
    flow will slowly advance east toward the LA/MS border through 06Z.
    While some weakening of the low level flow is anticipated, the
    northern portion of the convective cluster should advance into MS,
    while the southwestern flank will be slower to advance downstream,
    being met by developing thunderstorms atop the front and
    rain-cooled air over southern/southwestern LA. Training of heavy
    rainfall axes will continue to be capable of hourly rainfall in
    excess of 3 inches beneath a strongly diffluent flow pattern
    aloft.

    23Z and 00Z WoFS guidance showed a small region of 40 to 70+
    percent probabilities of 5+ inches over portions of south-central
    LA into southwestern MS over their 6-hr forecast range. Using the
    90th percentile output as a reasonable localized high-end of
    additional rainfall potential, 7 to 8 inches could fall over
    portions of south-central LA into southwestern MS. These rains
    could result in locally considerable to life-threatening flash
    flooding through 07Z.

    Areas affected...Central Gulf Coast...

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding likely

    Valid 070700Z - 071300Z

    SUMMARY...Mature MCS starting to weaken with reduced inflow, but
    embedded intense rates of 2"/hr will continue to over-run frontal
    zone and repeat over saturating soils along I-10 maintaining
    likely rapid inundation flooding concerns through daybreak.

    DISCUSSION...GOES-E WV suite shows very large, anomalous closed
    low over the Southern Plains with large mature MCS well displaced
    at the far eastward extent of its influence. Given the broadening
    of the larger cyclone, the mid to upper-level forcing is
    diminishing as the jet slowly reduces in speed and responding
    winds in the lower levels continue to weaken in turn. While they
    are weakening, the strength and orientation remain sufficient to
    maintain the complex throughout the remainder of the overnight
    period with ideal split in dual jet structure with 100 kt jet
    lifting northeast across NE TX into TN, while the subtropical jet
    (60-70kt) ridges ideally, bending southeastward across the western
    to central Gulf providing excellent divergence/evacuation for to
    maintain the MCS.

    The MCS's MCV is over eastern-MS but is slowly shearing along the
    SW to NE flow and low level winds are veering across the central
    Gulf, reducing orthogonality of LLJ to the leading squall line
    across S MS into far SE LA. Source of greatest instability and
    enhanced moisture also resides upstream into the northwest Gulf,
    so the fast moving, but intense rain-rates will further reduce
    overall totals crossing into S AL/W FL though scattered incidents
    of sub-hourly 1.5-2" remain possible and urban flooding concerns
    remain.

    The greater concern remains upstream across western LA into
    central LA, where outflow from aforementioned bow is starting to
    lay flat west to east southeast LA, and perhaps align with the
    slowly sagging cold front. Currently, surface to boundary layer
    flow remains orthogonal to the boundary-combining front; but 850mb
    flow is already veering less orthogonal out of the SW to WSW. The
    jet is also expected to reduce in magnitude from 30kts toward
    15kts by 10z, reducing upglide ascent. Given the Gulf remains
    very warm, MLCAPEs of 2000-3000 J/kg will remain with deep moist
    profile support 2-2.25" total PWats. So while flux may reduce,
    the unstable environment will support scattered development from
    SW LA across south-central LA with capability of 2"/hr rates.=20
    Cells will once again cross saturated/flooded areas and maintain
    ongoing flooding conditions through morning, with slow improvement
    as scattered cells further reduce to isolated. Still pockets of
    additional 3-4" totals are probable through 12z and so flooding
    remains likely especially along of I-10 in LA.=20

    Note: Low level flow environment is going to slack for a time
    toward the end of the valid time; however, there is an upstream
    shortwave that will trail the right entrance of the exiting
    upper-level jet streak AoA 12z and appears to be triggering
    convection west of the Lower Rio Grande Valley currently; this
    will slide eastward and increase lower level flow/convergence
    again with another shot of thunderstorms. Will continue to
    monitor those trends closely.

    Areas affected...Middle to Upper Texas Coasts

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 071118Z - 071505Z

    SUMMARY...Repeating heavy rain along stationary front over Middle
    to Upper Texas Coasts this morning. Embedded intense rates of
    2"/hr will continue over the next few hours with localized
    additional rain >4" and flash flooding possible immediately inland
    from the coast, but south of Houston proper.

    DISCUSSION...Ample Gulf moisture has surged back over the coast
    along a stationary front stretching from Matagorda Bay to the
    coastal border with Louisiana. Deep layer SWly flow around an
    centered over western OK is parallel to a stationary front along
    the coast which is limiting previous progression into the Gulf.
    This analysis is not seen in recent RAP runs which depict the
    front having pushed into the Gulf. So the 2" PW axis remains along
    the coast where the heavy rain is occurring. This moisture,
    combined with 2000 J/kg MUCAPE has allowed a line of heavy
    thunderstorms to develop.

    The SWly flow will allow motion in the orientation of the activity
    as fresh air moves in from the Gulf allowing redevelopment. KHGX
    has 1hr rainfall estimates of 1.5-2"/hr near Matagorda Bay to
    southern Brazoria County. Redevelopment ahead of a multi cell
    cluster just north of Matagorda Bay at 11Z, associated with a
    surface low, will continue allowing repeating heavy activity and
    the potential for 4" locally through about 14Z. This area has high
    FFG, so any flash flooding should be limited to urbanized areas.
    Since the front is quite strong, expect the heaviest activity to
    remain south of Houston proper, but should a concern for the
    Galveston area until the surface wave passes, shunting activity
    into the Gulf.

    Areas affected...Southern Louisiana

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 071250Z - 071805Z

    SUMMARY...Continued repeating heavy rain through midday for far
    southern Louisiana. The focus is pushing into the Gulf, so the
    flash flood threat is considered possible, including for New
    Orleans.

    DISCUSSION...A stationary front remains over southern Louisiana,
    though outflow is noted from regional radar as pushing into the
    Gulf. There remains a heavy rain focus along the frontal boundary
    south of I-10 with rainfall rates around 1.5"/hr from KLCH and
    KHDC. This is despite IR GOES imagery depicting warming cloud tops
    over the past couple of hours.
    There is quite a PW gradient over southern LA with values of 1.75
    to 1.9" south of I-10 with an east-west gradient to instability
    with more over southwest LA (1500-2000 J/kg) vs southeast (around
    1000 J/kg). Deep layer SWly flow around 25kt with upwind
    propagation to the east will keep activity moving along the
    frontal boundary to in or near New Orleans over the next few hours.
    Southwest LA has been spared from the heavy rain of the past day,
    so this activity is moving into less susceptible areas (though
    NOLA is perpetually susceptible). The main flash flood threat
    through midday is for urbanized areas.

    Areas affected...portions of the Lower Ohio Valley and Tennessee

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 081722Z - 082322Z

    Summary...Slow-moving showers and thunderstorms are producing
    spots of 1-1.5 inch/hr rain rates at times across southern
    Illinois. These rates should continue, with storms translating
    slowly eastward toward central Kentucky and Middle Tennessee
    through 23Z/6p CDT.

    Discussion...A combination of factors was contributing to a
    focused area of convective development across western areas of the
    discussion area (from southern IL through northwestern TN) over
    the past couple hours: 1) insolation/surface destabilization
    occurring beneath a slow-moving mid/upper low over Missouri and 2)
    convergence along a synoptic front extending from near SAR
    east/northeast to ILN. Mid-level flow fields are relatively weak,
    resulting in slow-moving and weakly organized convection that has
    exhibited multiple cell mergers at times. Moisture/instability
    profiles are supporting areas of 1-1.5 inch rain rates beneath the
    most persistent convection and merging cells, which was resulting
    in areas of FFG exceedance especially where heavier rates have
    persisted for more than an hour.

    Models/obs suggest that the area of convection will gradually
    translate eastward mainly across Kentucky and Tennessee over the
    next 6 hours or so. Occasional cell mergers/spots of FFG
    exceedance are expected on an isolated basis. The combination of
    both propagation and newer downstream development of convective
    activity suggests that a modest increase in flash flood potential
    should occur from western Kentucky eastward through the I-65
    corridor, with central KY/middle TN risk peaking from 19Z onward.

    Areas affected...southern NY into southern/central New England

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 082030Z - 090130Z

    Summary...Isolated to widely scattered areas of flash flooding
    will be possible across parts of southern NY into southern/central
    New England through late evening. Hourly rainfall of 1-2 inches
    with localized totals between 2 and 3 inches will be possible with
    activity likely diminishing in coverage and intensity after
    sunset.

    Discussion...20Z visible satellite and radar imagery showed
    scattered showers and thunderstorms in the vicinity of a wavy
    stationary front analyzed from coastal ME into southern
    NY/northern NJ. Earlier breaks in cloud cover and daytime heating
    have allowed for the development of weak instability (MLCAPE up to
    and locally in excess of 500 J/kg along the front over southern
    New England via SPC mesoanalysis). GPS data showed PWATs were
    modest, hovering near 1 inch but cell motions should be a bit
    slower, somewhere between 10-20 kt from the southwest.

    The coverage of showers and thunderstorms is expected to increase
    within the corridor between the front and a sea breeze boundary
    over southern CT into RI over the next couple of hours. The front
    is also forecast by the RAP to sweep southward, west of a surface
    low in east-central MA. Cell mergers, subsequent outflow and brief
    training with similar cell movement and boundary orientations
    could support a few spots with hourly rainfall between 1-2 inches
    and perhaps storm totals between 2 and 3 inches prior to expected
    dissipation after the loss of daytime heating.

    The expected total rainfall is certainly on the low side, but it
    may fall somewhat quickly atop a region of the Northeast which has
    seen 200 to 400+ percent of average rainfall over the past 7 days,
    leaving soil moisture values above average. This fact, combined
    with the urban nature of the region and rush hour could result in
    isolated to widely scattered instances of flash flooding over the
    next 3-5 hours.

    Areas affected...southern TX

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 090012Z - 090345Z

    SUMMARY...Localized flash flooding will be possible across
    portions of southern TX with high rainfall rates of 2-3 in/hr and
    isolated totals of 3-5 inches over the next 2-4 hours.

    DISCUSSION...Radar imagery through 00Z showed an uptick in
    thunderstorm coverage to the northwest of Corpus Christi across
    the I-37 corridor where outflows were merging. Upstream, a pair of
    thunderstorm clusters were advancing toward the ESE from the Rio
    Grande between Eagle Pass and Laredo, co-located with an MCV-like
    feature, as well as a cluster just east of I-35 near Cotulla. The
    environment over southern TX was unstable with 500-2000 J/kg
    MLCAPE although pockets of CIN were present near the coast from
    earlier storms via SPC mesoanalysis data.

    It appears probable that lift out ahead of the east-southeastward
    advancing circulation/convective clusters to the west and
    divergent/diffluent flow aloft, will continue to encourage
    convective development downstream. Following a general ESE motion
    over the next 2-4 hours will support cell mergers and occasional
    slow propagation which could support high rainfall rates of 2-3
    in/hr and perhaps localized totals of 3-5 inches through ~04Z over
    portions of southern TX. Due to relatively high FFG values across
    southern TX, any flash flooding that develops would likely be tied
    to impervious surfaces tied to towns/cities within the path of the
    advancing clusters of heavy rain.

    Areas affected...southwestern NC, northwestern SC and northern GA

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding likely

    Valid 090300Z - 090700Z

    Summary...Continued localized rainfall rates up to 1-2"/hr may
    train and repeat over the same areas over the next several hours,
    likely resulting in isolated to scattered instances of flash
    flooding (with short-term totals of up to 3-5").

    Discussion...Ongoing convection over the TN/NC/GA/SC border region
    is tending to align in a west-to-east training axis, along an
    effective low-level front (most pronounced at 1000-925 mb, per
    SPC's SFCOA 02z analysis, but also apparent from 925-700 mb). This
    low-level convergence is being driven by inflow/moisture transport
    from the S-SW (10-20 kts from 925-850 mb), which is isentropically
    ascending over rain-cooled outflow from earlier storms (and is
    most apparent in the surface theta E gradient which ranges from
    336K to the south to 324K to the north across the MPD).
    Significant upper-level divergence is complementing the low-level
    convergence, as the region is located near a phased jet structure
    in the right-entrance region of a ~90 kt jet streak centered near
    the Delmarva and the left-exit region of an increasingly defined,
    broader jet streak spanning much of the Deep South (with the
    latter becoming more of the primary influence over time).
    Otherwise, the mesoscale environment is characterized by MUCAPE of
    500-1000 J/kg (plenty sufficient on its own, and possibly
    underselling the influence of slantwise instability via isentropic
    ascent), precipitable water values of 1.1-1.4 inches (between the
    75th and 90th percentile, per GSO sounding climatology), and
    effective bulk shear of 30-40 kts.

    While convection should have the tendency to propagate towards
    towards the southeast over the course of the night (out of the MPD
    area and into sandy soils beyond the fall line into the coastal
    plain of SC/GA), there may be a several hour period where
    convection trains from west-to-east near the aforementioned
    effective front (as the upwind propagation vector, subtracting the
    850 mb flow from the mean flow of the cloud bearing layer,
    supports more due easterly storm motions parallel to the effective
    front, as observational trends indicate backbuilding of cells over
    the GA/TN/NC border region). Some of the most recent hi-res
    guidance (00z ARW/ARW2 and select recent runs of both the HRRR and
    experimental RRFS) indicate the potential for localized 3-5"
    totals (driven by rainfall rates of up to 1-2"/hr, per both
    observational trends and hi-res model data). With FLASH CREST unit
    flow data already indicating localized instances of flash flooding
    ongoing, expect areal coverage of flash flooding to expand over
    the next several hours (with isolated to scattered instances of
    flash flooding being likely, given 3-hr FFGs generally ranging
    from 2.0-3.0" and the increasing likelihood of training
    seagmants).

    Areas affected...Southeastern Louisiana and the Central Gulf Coast

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 091715Z - 092215Z

    SUMMARY...Heavy rain threat for southeast Louisiana through the
    central Gulf Coast continues through this afternoon. Convergence
    of ongoing activity over southern Louisiana that should lift
    northeast raises a localized flash flooding threat for vulnerable
    areas including Lafayette, Baton Rouge, New Orleans, and Mobile.

    DISCUSSION...A positively tilted upper trough over the Mid-South
    this afternoon is providing broad scale moisture advection to the
    Central Gulf Coast. A pair of surface lows over southwest and
    southeast LA have slow-moving heavy thunderstorms that are
    producing 2-3" in two hours per regional radar and rain gauges.
    Continued low level 15-20kt southerly flow between these features,
    MLCAPE of 500-1000 J/kg, and lift from the right entrance region
    of an 80kt jet to the north should allow further development to
    the east/north which includes the I-10 corridor and vulnerable
    metro areas.
    This area has seen 2-5" rainfall over the past few days with
    saturated soil helping vulnerability to extend somewhat beyond the
    typical vulnerable urban areas from Lafayette to Mobile. Flash
    flooding is considered possible through this afternoon with
    additional threats this evening as the system slowly shifts east.

    Areas affected...FL Panhandle...Far Southwest GA

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 092015Z - 100115Z

    SUMMARY...Slow-moving thunderstorms across portions of the FL
    Panhandle and far southwest GA over the next several hours may
    result in isolated areas of flash flooding.

    DISCUSSION...The latest radar imagery continues to show several
    slow-moving areas of thunderstorms across portions of the FL
    Panhandle and far southwest GA. The convection has been forming
    over the last couple of hours in close proximity to a frontal zone
    draped across the region. A rather substantial pool of moisture
    and instability is focused along this boundary with MLCAPE values
    of locally near 1500 J/kg and PWs of 1.6 to 1.8 inches.

    An upper-level trough upstream approaching the central Gulf Coast
    will tend to favor some downstream upper-level divergence
    downstream over the FL Panhandle going through the remainder of
    the afternoon and into the early evening hours. This coupled with
    the favorable thermodynamic environment should tend to favor
    convective sustenance over the next several hours near the front
    where this is also a corridor of at least modest moisture
    convergence.

    There will be some potential for backbuilding and training of
    convective cells, and especially with some modest increase in the
    low-level flow expected near the front. The presence of
    smaller-scale cold pools/outflow boundaries will also tend to act
    as secondary catalysts for regenerating convective cells.

    Recent RRFS guidance has been tending to handle the ongoing
    convective cells rather well, and suggests some localized 3 to 5
    inch rainfall totals going through early this evening which will
    be supported by rainfall rates of up 2 to 2.5 inches/hour.

    Isolated areas of flash flooding will be possible as a result and
    especially if any of these stronger storms and heavier rainfall
    rates focus over the more urbanized locations.

    Areas affected...portions of far southern AL/MS into the FL
    Panhandle

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 100600Z - 101200Z

    Summary...Localized rainfall rates of up to 2-3"/hr may result in
    short-term totals of 5"+ through 7am CDT. Isolated instances of
    flash flooding are possible (and could be locally significant over
    more sensitive low-lying and metro areas).

    Discussion...A deep layer (surface to 500 mb) vertically tilted
    cut-off low is becoming more convectively active over the past few
    hours near the low-level (surface to 850 mb) center (just offshore
    southeast LA and southern MS). GOES-East infrared imagery depicts
    cooling cloud tops in association with this recent deep
    convection, though a rainband farther east (within the core of the
    warm conveyor belt) has maintained more impressive cold cloud tops
    with occasional overshooting tops. Both areas of convection are
    only just beginning to come ashore, though lapse rates remain
    unimpressive both in the vicinity of the convection and well
    onshore of both areas (max 2-6 km lapse rates of less than 7deg
    C/km). That said, a corridor of increasing instability (+300-600
    J/kg) is evident over the past several hours in association with
    the convection near the core of the low-level center (with little
    change so far in instability farther east into the FL Panhandle).
    CIRA composite advected layer precipitable water (PWAT) imagery
    depicts a clear increase in low-level PWAT (sfc-850 mb and 850-700
    mb layers), pivoting around the center of the low-level
    circulation (with both NEXRAD VWP and GOES Derived Motion Wind
    Vectors (DMW) indicating 15-25 kt flow around a well-defined
    surface circulation from an ideally placed ~330z ASCAT pass).
    Total PWATs range from 1.7-1.9 inches (between the 90th percentile
    and max moving average, per LIX sounding climatology), and
    low-level moisture transport and convergence (iscentropically
    ascending) is also being complemented by upper-level diffluence
    (also evident in NEXRAD VWP and GOES DMW between 400-250 mb) with
    deep layer (0-6 km) shear of 30-50 kts.

    The latest hi-res guidance (00z HREF suite, 18z REFS suite, and
    more recent runs of both the HRRR and RRFS) generally indicates
    the potential for extreme localized rainfall rates (2-3"/hr) with
    resulting isolated totals of 3-6"+ through 12z. The spatial
    disparities in these high QPF totals are relatively wide, but have
    come into better agreement (with 00z guidance onward) in depicting
    the greatest potential for localized 5"+ totals in the vicinity of
    the low-level center (confined to far southern portions of MS/AL,
    possibly extending into the far western FL Panhandle). This is
    consistent with the most recent observational trends, and 00z HREF
    40-km exceedance probabilities for 5" are indicated to be as high
    as 10-20% (with corresponding 100-yr ARI exceedance probabilities
    of 5%). Given the high uncertainty in the manifestation of these
    localized extreme rainfall rates/totals (which are largely
    conditionally dependent on localized backbuilding of convection
    near the low center), isolated instances of flash flooding are
    considered to be possible. Given the proximity to relatively
    sensitive low-lying and urbanized metropolitan areas (with 3-6
    hour Flash Flood Guidance as low as 1.5-2.0"), locally significant
    flash flooding is also possible.

    Areas affected...Florida Panhandle into Alabama and Georgia

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 101756Z - 102256Z

    SUMMARY...Repeating thunderstorms moving north from the eastern
    Florida Panhandle into Alabama and Georgia rest of this afternoon
    may result in localized flash flooding.

    DISCUSSION...A multi-cell thunderstorm cluster with hourly
    rainfall rates of 1.5-2"/hr has developed from the eastern FL
    Panhandle through far southeast AL per regional radar. This
    activity expanded in the past couple of hours from an isolated
    supercell in a renewed warm conveyor belt lifting from the Gulf
    east of an upper low centered over southern MS. PW of 1.75" and
    MLCAPE >1500 J/kg in this axis will enable further development.
    Strong southerly flow from the Gulf around 35kt and a warm frontal
    boundary across this axis will allow this development to continue
    to be along the axis, causing repeating heavy thunderstorms and
    thus a flash flood risk.

    Recent HRRR runs depict a risk of 2-4" rainfall over the next few
    hours. Areas in the eastern FL Panhandle received 3-5" rainfall
    since last night where vulnerability is greater. Areas in
    southeast AL/southwest GA have only received around an inch of
    rain over the past week and are less vulnerable. Localized flash
    flooding will be possible where the most repeating occurs and over
    more urbanized locations.

    Areas affected...Central/Eastern MS...Western /Central AL

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 101920Z - 110120Z

    SUMMARY...Some focused areas of heavy rainfall from slow-moving
    and locally training showers and thunderstorms may result in at
    least isolated areas of flash flooding heading through the
    afternoon and early evening hours.

    DISCUSSION...The latest GOES-E visible satellite imagery shows a
    fair amount of clearing across central and southern AL with strong
    solar insolation ensuing. This is destabilizing the boundary layer
    with the latest RAP analysis showing a nose of MLCAPE values of
    500 to 1000 J/kg already nosing up around the northeast flank of
    surface low pressure over eastern MS.

    The greater instability is over much of southern AL, but with
    additional surface heating and convergent deep layer flow
    associated the slow-moving upper-level low/trough over the South,
    there should be a corridor of higher instability that wraps up
    across areas of central AL and into eastern MS which will be in
    close proximity to a frontal occlusion.

    Slow-moving bands of heavy showers and thunderstorms are expected
    to evolve over the next several hours which will be supported by
    divergent flow aloft around the northeast flank of the closed low
    and the presence of frontal convergence and increasingly favorable thermodynamic environment.

    Rainfall rates of 1 to 2 inches/hour are likely with the stronger
    convective cells, and with slow cell-motions and some training
    concerns, there may be some rainfall totals of 3 to 4 inches that
    materialize with potential for spotty heavier amounts. This is
    generally consistent with the 12Z HREF guidance which shows a 40%
    to 60% chance of 6-hour rainfall totals exceeding 3 inches across
    portions of west-central AL, with somewhat lower probabilities
    into eastern MS.

    Given the moist antecedent conditions that are in place and these
    additional rainfall totals going through the early evening hours,
    at least some isolated areas of flash flooding will be possible.

    Areas affected...Central GA

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 102220Z - 110420Z

    SUMMARY...Slow-moving supercellular MCS cluster over central GA
    may result in sufficiently high enough rainfall rates for some
    isolated flash flooding concerns this evening.

    DISCUSSION...A long-lived supercellular MCS cluster moving
    gradually through central GA continues to remain very
    well-organized and has been tending to gradually track a tad to
    the right over the last few hours as it begins to interact with a
    warm front draped west to east across the region.

    Much of the convection is aligned with a rather strong instability
    gradient with as much as 1500 J/kg of MLCAPE pooled along the
    front. Meanwhile, there is favorable shear in place with 0-3 km
    effective bulk shear values of 30 to 40 kts which is playing a
    role in maintaining the supercell character of the convective
    mass. PWs across the region are quite moist with values of as much
    as 1.6 to 1.7 inches and this is running a solid 1.5 to 2 standard
    deviations above normal.

    Rainfall rates are impressively high with dual-pol radar showing
    hourly rainfall totals reaching 1.5 to 2.5 inches. The slow
    cell-motions overall with this activity are yielding heavier
    3-hour totals that have been on the order of 3 to 4+ inches based
    on MRMS data.

    Over the next few hours, the HRRR and RRFS guidance suggest a
    continuation of well-organized clusters of strong convection
    impacting areas of central GA with high rainfall rates that are
    likely to still reach 1.5 to 2.5 inches/hour. The HRRR guidance
    this evening in particular shows some back-building cells around
    the southwest flanks of the convection in association with a
    persistently moist southerly low-level jet of 30 to 40 kts, and
    this may help drive small-scale focused areas of heavier rainfall
    amounts that may reach 5+ inches.

    The 18Z HREF and 12Z REFS ensemble suites both suggest at least
    low-end probabilities (20% to 30%) of seeing the 3-hour FFG values
    exceeded going through 03Z/11 PM EDT. Therefore, at least an
    isolated threat for flash flooding is expected to exist this
    evening across central GA, with the more urbanized locations at
    greatest risk for impacts.

    Locally heavy rainfall with rates over 3 inches per hour remain
    possible through the morning as training storms line up along a
    stationary front. Ongoing flash flooding likely to worsen...

    DISCUSSION...
    A surface stationary front and a large nearly stationary upper
    level low will act as the forcing mechanisms for continued deep
    convection over a portion of the Florida Panhandle into
    southeastern Alabama this morning. The front is drawing very moist
    air with PWATs to 1.8 inches northward on a 20-30 kt SSE flow at
    850. A shortwave rounding the southeastern periphery of this low
    is likely further enhancing convective development as the storms
    take advantage of convective instability caused by a very dry air
    mass aloft overtopping the very moist air mass near the surface.

    The latest HRRR runs are capturing the current convective setup
    across this region fairly well, and suggest for the next 4 hours
    or so that the training line of storms will continue moving almost
    due north into the Florida Panhandle and continuing into
    southeastern Alabama. A few other CAMs suggest that the storms may
    drift east with time, but the rate of eastward movement is
    uncertain and so far hasn't materialized yet...though developing
    convection offshore to the east of the line may try to drift west
    and merge with the storms, likely disrupting the training, even if
    temporarily.

    Areas affected...Eastern Georgia into Southwestern South Carolina

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 111531Z - 112131Z

    SUMMARY...
    A slow-moving line of training thunderstorms has developed across
    eastern Georgia. Flash flooding will be possible as rainfall rates
    with the strongest cores up to 3 inches per hour.

    DISCUSSION... A nearly stationary line of storms has developed
    across eastern Georgia in a north-south line. A moisture gradient
    has set up in a pseudo dry line but in the mid levels based on 850
    mb SPC mesoanalysis. On the dry side the dewpoints are as low as
    6C over central Georgia, whereas on the moist side they're as high
    as 13C. Thus, this is a robust gradient of moisture over the area.
    The storms have formed on the moist side of that gradient, which
    appear unlikely to move much over the next several hours. This
    will support the potential for multiple hours of heavy rain over
    the area.

    HRRR and RRFS model simulations of reflectivity suggest the storms
    will persist into the afternoon hours across this area, although
    the behavior of individual heavy rain cores will vary through this
    period. One of the biggest points of uncertainty is how the line
    of convection will behave once the storms entering far southern
    Georgia from the Florida Panhandle reach the latitude of the line
    of storms in eastern Georgia. Assuming the mid-level dry line
    weakens or dissipates as the storms tracking from Florida
    approach, this should diminish the local forcing allowing the
    storms to stay in place, resulting in an overall weakening of the
    storms and a lessening flash flood threat. However, the RRFS
    suggests that with daytime heating in full swing, that more storms
    may form along the coast and result in a new training line
    potentially linked to the sea breeze or the frictional gradient
    along the coast resulting from the predominant onshore
    southeasterly flow.

    While 12Z FFGs in the area of these training storms are around 3
    inches in an hour and 4 inches in 3 hours, the latter criterion
    could very well be exceeded with the persistence of thses storms
    over the next few hours. Flash flooding is possible.

    Areas affected...Central to Southeast MS...Central and Western AL

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 111930Z - 120130Z

    SUMMARY...Developing bands of showers and thunderstorms will tend
    to expand in coverage going through early this evening. Some
    cell-training with heavy rainfall rates and also moist antecedent
    conditions will favor a threat for isolated to scattered areas of
    flash flooding.

    DISCUSSION...The mid-afternoon GOES-E visible satellite imagery
    shows a developing CU/TCU field across much of central to
    southeast MS and through western AL as diurnal heating/solar
    insolation work to destabilize the boundary layer in close
    proximity to a frontal occlusion. In fact, LightningCast data
    coupled with radar imagery does show convective initiation taking
    place with a few small-scale bands of convection beginning to
    organize over eastern MS and western AL

    A deep layer trough/closed low continues to pivot across the lower
    MS Valley, and this deep layer cyclonic flow coupled with the
    improving thermodynamic environment should support developing and
    expanding bands of convection going through the early evening
    hours.

    MLCAPE values have risen to as much as 1000 to 1500 J/kg with
    3-hour CAPE differentials of 600+ J/kg and this coupled with an
    expected increase in moisture convergence near the frontal
    occlusion should set the stage for convection that will be capable
    of producing rainfall rates of 1 to 2 inches/hour along with
    concerns for cell-training given the unidirectional deep layer
    cyclonic flow.

    The most recent 12Z HREF guidance along with recent HRRR and RRFS
    solutions support the potential for some bands of convection to
    produce rainfall amounts through early this evening of 2 to 4
    inches. These rains coupled with the moist and locally wet
    antecedent conditions will favor a setup that may yield isolated
    to scattered areas of flash flooding and especially where any
    cell-training occurs.

    456 PM EDT Sun May 11 2025

    Areas affected...Portions of Central and Eastern GA...SC Midlands
    and Lowcountry

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding likely

    Valid 112055Z - 120255Z

    SUMMARY...Scattered areas of flash flooding will be likely going
    through the early to mid-evening hours from locally slow-moving
    and training showers and thunderstorms.

    DISCUSSION...The latest radar and satellite imagery shows an
    expansive area of heavy showers and thunderstorms impacting areas
    of central/eastern GA and through western/central SC as a deep
    layer southerly conveyor belt of warm and moist air lifts into the
    Southeast U.S. and interacts with a stationary front draped west
    to east across southern GA and the SC Lowcountry.

    The deep layer moisture transport is well-defined around the
    eastern flank of a deep layer trough/closed low over the lower MS Valley/western Gulf Coast region and has tropical origins with
    moisture seen in CIRA-ALPW advancing north up from Central America
    and the western Caribbean Sea across the eastern Gulf Coast region
    and into the Southeast U.S. PW values are 1.75+ inches which are a
    solid 2 to 2.5 standard deviations above normal, and the latest
    850/700 mb moisture flux anomalies are as much as 2 to 4 standard
    deviations above normal.

    This moisture transport and warm air advection will continue to
    support strong isentropic ascent across central and eastern GA and
    the SC Lowcountry through this evening which combined with
    moderate instability near the aforementioned front will support
    areas of organized convection with heavy rainfall rates. MLCAPE
    values across areas of southeast GA are still on the order of 1500
    J/kg with a strongly convergent low-level flow pattern in place
    given proximity of the front. However, the recent convective
    activity has resulted in some lowering of CAPE values over the
    last few hours.

    Nevertheless, expect sufficient levels of forcing and instability
    to continue going into the evening hours for additional rounds of
    heavy showers and thunderstorms which will be capable of producing
    rainfall rates of up to 1.5 to 2.5 inches/hour with the stronger
    convective cores, and especially with the efficient/moist deep
    layer tropical origins of the moisture transport.

    Areas of far eastern GA and possibly getting into areas of the SC
    Lowcountry will need to be closely monitored this evening for
    areas of notable cell-training as the convection here should be
    stronger and more focused with alignment also with the deeper
    layer steering flow. A wave of low pressure traversing the
    stationary front will be a key player in driving this threat.

    Some additional rainfall totals may reach 3 to 5+ inches
    (supported be HRRR and RRFS solutions), and given the rainfall
    that has already occurred, there will likely be scattered areas of
    flash flooding. This will include an urban flash flood threat,
    with even major metropolitan areas well to the north including
    Atlanta, GA and Columbia, SC potentially seeing some urban
    flooding concerns from heavy rainfall.

    Areas affected...Northwest to Central MS...Central and Southern AL

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 120130Z - 120730Z

    SUMMARY...Bands of showers and thunderstorms will continue into
    the overnight hours across areas of northwest to central MS along
    with adjacent areas of central and southern AL. Concerns for
    cell-training with heavy rainfall rates will pose a threat for
    scattered areas of flash flooding.

    DISCUSSION...The early evening GOES-E IR satellite imagery shows
    an elongated southeast/northwest axis of relatively cold-topped
    convection continuing to impact areas of central and southern AL
    up across central to northwest MS. The bands of convection which
    are linear in nature remain concentrated rather close to a frontal
    occlusion and are persisting within a moist and moderately
    unstable airmass with the aid of divergent flow aloft around the
    northeast flank of the deep layer trough/closed low over the lower
    MS Valley.

    MLCAPE values remain locally on the order of 1000 to 1500 J/kg
    with PWs of near 1.5 inches, and this coupled with some modest
    shear parameters has been supporting rainfall rates of 1 to 2
    inches/hour with the stronger convective cores.

    There is a fair amount moisture convergence noted near the
    aforementioned frontal occlusion, and this coupled with the
    orientation of the convection with the deeper layer cyclonic flow
    should continue to yield linear convective structures that will be
    conducive for cell-training.

    The latest hires model guidance led by the HRRR and the RRFS
    collectively support as much as an additional 2 to 4 inches of
    rain going through 06Z (1AM CDT). The additional rains are
    expected to largely fall on areas that have seen recent rainfall,
    and thus with moist/wet antecedent conditions in place, there will
    continue to be a concern for scattered areas of flash flooding
    going into the overnight hours.

    Areas affected...Central and Southeast GA...SC Midlands and
    Lowcountry

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 120220Z - 120820Z

    SUMMARY...Additional rounds of heavy showers and thunderstorms
    overnight will continue to promote concerns for scattered areas of
    flash flooding heading into the overnight hours.

    DISCUSSION...The latest radar and satellite imagery is showing new
    rounds of heavy showers and thunderstorms lifting up across
    northern FL and stretching up across areas central to southeast GA
    and into far southern SC. This again is being supported by a deep
    layer southerly conveyor belt of warm and moist air lifting into
    the Southeast U.S. while interacting with a quasi-stationary
    frontal zone draped across far southern GA and up across coastal
    areas of SC.

    The deep layer moisture transport remains well-defined around the
    eastern flank of a deep layer trough/closed low over the lower MS Valley/western Gulf Coast region and continues to have tropical
    origins with moisture seen in CIRA-ALPW advancing north up from
    Central America and the western Caribbean Sea across the eastern
    Gulf Coast/FL Peninsula and into the Southeast U.S. coastal plain.
    00Z RAOB data shows PWs generally near or a little above 1.75
    inches which is 2 to 2.5 standard deviations above normal.

    This moisture transport and warm air advection will continue to
    support strong isentropic ascent across eastern GA and the SC
    Lowcountry going into the overnight hours which coupled with the
    frontal convergence and pooling of instability along it will favor
    additional concentrated areas of convection with heavy rainfall
    rates.

    MLCAPE values across coastal areas of GA and the SC Lowcountry are
    on the order of 1000+ J/kg and are being aided by cyclonic
    low-level flow off the warmer waters of the nearby Gulf Stream.
    Favorable shear parameters are in place too, and thus the
    environment will be conducive for some organized convective cells
    with high rainfall rates capable of reaching 1.5 to 2.5
    inches/hour.

    The recent runs of the HRRR/RRFS guidance and also the 18Z
    HREF/12Z REFS ensemble solutions support the potential for
    additional rainfall totals reaching 3 to 5 inches. This will
    support a continued threat for scattered areas of flash flooding
    heading into the overnight hours.

    Areas affected...portions of eastern AL

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 120730Z - 121100Z

    Summary...Continued hourly rainfall totals of up to 1-2" are
    likely to result in localized 2-3" accumulations over the next
    several hours. Isolated to scattered instances of flash flooding
    are possible.=20

    Discussion...Persistent boundary layer moisture flux convergence
    just to the north of the triple point of a vertically stacked,
    deep layer (sfc-200 mb) cut-off low/cyclone is maintaining a
    cluster of thunderstorms across east-central AL (with MRMS
    estimating localized hourly totals as high as 1-2" at times). The
    convection has become increasingly linearly organized from
    south-to-north within the deep layer mean flow, backbuilding
    towards the triple point where 20-30 kts of low-level (primarily
    near the 925 mb isobaric surface/295K isentropic surface) is
    providing locally enhanced convergence/lift. In the mid- to
    upper-levels (400-250 mb), broad diffluence (within the left-exit
    region of a ~100 kt jet streak) and a distinct potential vorticity
    max upstream should continue to promote large scale lift and
    convective longevity. The mesoscale environment is characterized
    by ML CAPE of 250-1000 J/kg (and increasing by ~200 J/kg over the
    past several hours), precipitable water values of 1.3-1.5 inches
    (between the 75th and 90th percentile, per BMX sounding
    climatology), and effective bulk shear of 20-40 kts.

    Given the favorable environment and recent observational trends,
    the expectation is that isolated to scattered 1-2" hourly totals
    will continue over the next several hours, and the potential
    exists for localized training/repeating of these heavy rainfall
    rates. Hi-res CAMs (recent hourly runs of the HRRR and RRFS)
    insist that this activity will shift abruptly towards the
    northeast over the next 2-3 hours (as the low-level flow is
    expected to veer over the next couple of hours, largely cutting
    off the locally enhanced moisture transport/convergence). Even so,
    this will likely result in 2-3" of isolated to scattered rainfall
    totals through 10-11z (falling to the north and east of the
    Montgomery and Birmingham metro areas where MRMS estimates 1-2" of
    rainfall has occurred over the past several hours). Antecedent
    soil conditions are quite wet, with accompanying 3-hr Flash Flood
    Guidance (FFGs) generally range from 1.5-2.5" (as NASA SPoRT-LIS
    0-1m soil moisture remains well above the 90th percentile across
    the region). Isolated to scattered instances of flash flooding are
    possible.

    Areas affected...South Florida...

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 121115Z - 121600Z

    SUMMARY...Compact MCS with rates of 2.5-3"/hr and some training
    elements may result in quick 3-5" totals and rapid inundation
    flooding IF collocates with urban areas over next few hours.

    DISCUSSION...CIRA LPW and surface observations depict a sharpening moisture/dewpoint gradient along and southeast of Biscayne Bay,
    with values in the Sfc-850mb layer near .7" while south across the
    FL straits near/over 1-1.1". This is supporting an isentropic boundary/effective warm front developing due to increasing
    southwest to southeast 15-25kt confluence along/ahead of NNE to
    SSW convective band crossing the central Keys. This allows for an
    effective triple point to exist across the Everglades along the Monroe/Miami-Dade county line. The strength of the moisture convergence/confluence and higher surface theta-E air to support
    SBCAPEs of 2000-2500 J/kg will support the rapidly cooling CB tops
    below -65C. Cells along the effective warm front have sufficient
    bulk shear to be rotating increasing moisture flux convergence for
    rainfall efficiency to greater than 2.5"/hr. Isolated, narrower
    updraft cells will exist along and northeast of the triple point
    through the length of the warm conveyor belt that extends north to
    just east of Cape Canaveral. Cells will be less efficient within
    the broader moderate shield precipitation given reduced available
    instability.

    There remains great uncertainty in the evolution/track of the MCV
    and therefore the triple-point and warm frontal convection.=20
    Dynamically biased Hi-Res CAMs (ARW, Nam-Nest, HRRR, RAP) suggest
    a continued northeastward track of the MCV lifting the heavy
    rainfall/triple point corridor northeastward across urban
    Miami-Dade/Broward. However, thermodynamically biased guidance
    (RRFS, ARW2, etc) suggest higher theta-E release in the mid-levels
    and increased outflow and forward propagation out across the Gulf
    stream east, resulting in a more moderate broad shield
    precipitation to occur over the urban corridor. RADAR trends
    would support the latter, reducing the overall risk of heaviest
    rainfall to the near-offshore from Biscane Bay, eastward, but the
    former cannot be fully ruled out. Currently, the greatest risk
    appears to be in the Homestead/southern Dade urban areas lifting
    northeast toward downtown Miami with spots of 3-5" possible over
    the next 1-3 hours.

    Areas affected...Central and Eastern MS...Western and Central AL

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 121925Z - 130025Z

    SUMMARY...Slow-moving showers and thunderstorms this afternoon
    with locally heavy rainfall rates up to 1.5 inches/hour coupled
    with moist antecedent conditions will pose an isolated threat for
    flash flooding.

    DISCUSSION...The latest GOES-E Day Cloud Phase RGB satellite
    imagery is showing the gradual expansion and continued initiation
    of showers and thunderstorms across central and eastern MS and
    adjacent areas of western and central AL. The convection is
    largely developing underneath the deeper layer closed low
    gradually pivoting eastward across the Gulf Coast states.

    Cooler mid-level temperatures coupled with boundary layer heating
    over the last several hours has facilitated MLCAPE values of as
    much as 1000 to 1500 J/kg, and this coupled with cyclonic low to
    mid-level flow should foster some increase in convective coverage
    going through the remainder of the afternoon.

    The environment is relatively moist with PWs generally close to
    1.25 inches, but with the available instability and slow
    cell-motions underneath the upper low, some hourly rainfall
    amounts of up to 1.5 inches will be possible. This is consistent
    with the 12Z HREF guidance which suggests some additional storm
    totals by early this evening reaching as high as 2 to 4 inches
    where the cells tend to locally anchor themselves.

    Given the moist antecedent conditions from recent heavy rainfall,
    these additional rains over the next several hours may pose an
    isolated threat for flash flooding.

    Areas affected...Southeast FL

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 122135Z - 130035Z

    SUMMARY...A band of heavy showers and thunderstorms will be
    approaching the urban corridor of southeast FL over the next
    couple of hours. As this activity crosses the region early this
    evening, and urban flash flood threat will exist.

    DISCUSSION...The latest GOES-E IR satellite imagery along with
    regional radar data shows a band of heavy showers and
    thunderstorms gradually crossing south FL, with the activity
    gradually encroaching on the I-95 urban corridor of southeast FL.

    The activity has been intensifying over the last hour with cooling
    convective tops noted, and this intensification trend is being
    facilitated by rather strong low-level moisture convergence and a
    moderate to strongly unstable airmass characterized by MLCAPE
    values of 1500 to 2000 J/kg. Meanwhile, it is very moist with PWs
    of 2.0 to 2.25 inches which is locally 3+ standard deviations
    above normal.

    Rainfall rates with the approaching convective band are expected
    to be very high considering a well-defined deep tropical airmass
    and robust instability. Some rainfall rates may be capable of
    reaching 2 to 3 inches/hour, with even some sub-hourly rainfall
    totals of as much as 1.5 inches in just 20 to 30 minutes possible.

    The convection is moving fairly slowly, but steadily off to the
    east, and should advance into the I-95 urban corridor of southeast
    FL from West Palm Beach down to Fort Lauderdale and the Miami
    metropolitan area within the next 1 to 2 hours. Given the high
    rainfall rates and relatively slow cell-motions, some rainfall
    totals by mid-evening could reach 3 to 4 inches.

    These additional rains coupled with local sensitivities from the
    rainfall that occurred this morning will pose a concern for flash
    flooding over the next few hours. However, even the high rainfall
    rates alone impacting the I-95 corridor of southeast FL this
    evening will drive a notable urban flash flood threat.

    Areas affected...Central to Northeast GA...Upstate SC...Western NC

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 122348Z - 130548Z

    SUMMARY...Scattered areas of flash flooding may materialize this
    evening from areas of slow-moving and locally training showers and thunderstorms.

    DISCUSSION...The early-evening GOES-E IR satellite imagery along
    with regional radars shows some general increase in the coverage
    of shower and thunderstorm activity across areas of central to
    northeast GA which some linear structures becoming better defined
    and also coinciding with some cooling convective tops.

    A weakening frontal system is traversing the Southeast U.S. out
    ahead of a deeper layer trough/closed low over the Gulf Coast
    states, but there is a pool of moderate instability currently
    situated up across areas of central to northeast GA with MLCAPE
    values of 1000 to 1500 J/kg. Coinciding with this is a belt of
    effective bulk shear values of 30 to 40 kts and there has been an
    increase in the general organization of these cells over the last
    hour.

    The experimental WoFS guidance from the 20Z through 22Z runs has
    been rather insistent on there being some potential this evening
    for some north/south bands of convection that will be capable of
    training over the same area. Recent HRRR runs have been hinting at
    the same type of convective mode and potential for localized
    cell-training.

    Rainfall rates with the stronger storms will likely be capable of
    reaching 1.5 to 2 inches/hour given their level of organization
    and slow movement, and there may be some storm totals that could
    locally reach 3 to 4+ inches by midnight as these storms lift
    generally northward through northeast GA, portions of upstate SC,
    and also eventually western NC.

    Given the moist antecedent conditions and heavy rainfall potential
    in the near-term, there may be some scattered areas of flash
    flooding that materialize this evening.

    Areas affected...northern/western VA into WV/MD Panhandles

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 131439Z - 131915Z

    SUMMARY...Localized flash flooding may develop across portions of
    central to western VA into the central Appalachians through 19Z.
    Periods of steady rain with embedded hourly rainfall of 0.5 to 1.0
    inches (locally in excess of 1 inch) can be expected with
    localized 3-hr totals of 2-3 inches.

    DISCUSSION...1430Z GOES East water vapor imagery showed a slow
    moving closed mid-level low centered over KY/TN with a negatively
    tilted shortwave spoke rotating into NC. Flow aloft ahead of this
    feature was becoming increasingly diffluent over the northern
    Mid-Atlantic region with a jet streak noted on GOES East DMV (~70
    kt) over south-central VA. Lower level winds were oriented from SE
    to NW with 850 mb wind speeds of 25-45 kt (highest from southern
    Chesapeake Bay into northwestern MD), a favorable orthogonal
    orientation for upslope enhancement into the axis of the Blue
    Ridge and central Appalachians.

    While instability was limited, central VA into east-central WV was
    positioned along the gradient in RAP forecast instability with
    MLCAPE of 1000+ J/kg to the southwest developing early in the
    afternoon. Favorable divergence and diffluece aloft will accompany
    embedded mesoscale vortices within the broader stratiform
    precipitation shield, likely help to enhance rainfall rates along
    with periods of short term training. Factoring in upslope
    enhancement due to terrain, periods of hourly rainfall between 0.5
    and 1.0 inches will be likely at times late this morning into the
    afternoon with localized hourly rainfall in excess of 1 inch
    possible. The steady nature of the rainfall with occasional
    enhancement to rainfall intensity is expected to support 2-3
    inches of rain within a 3 hour period which may result in
    localized areas of flash flooding.

    Areas affected...western VA into WV and the upper OH Valley

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 131813Z - 132245Z

    SUMMARY...Scattered thunderstorms are expected to expand from
    portions of western VA into WV and adjoining areas of southeastern
    OH and southwestern PA through 23Z. Hourly rates within the
    afternoon storms are expected to exceed 1 in/hr at times due to
    short term training.

    DISCUSSION...Visible satellite and radar imagery at 18Z showed a
    region of scattered thunderstorms from central WV into western VA
    near I-64. These storms were located ahead of a shortwave trough
    moving north from northeastern TN into western NC, part of a
    larger closed mid-level low centered over KY/TN. The region was
    also situated southwest of a broad region of overcast skies where
    daytime heating has combined with modest moisture to support
    instability. The environment near this region of thunderstorms
    contained 500-1500 J/kg MLCAPE with weakly anomalous precipitable
    water values with low level flow from the southeast at 10-20 kt
    over western VA, but with weaker magnitudes over central WV.

    The main concern for flash flooding is due to the expectation of
    additional convective development ahead of the shortwave trough
    within clear skies (unstable environment). While a general
    movement of thunderstorms toward the north or east is expected,
    unidirectional flow from the south to south-southeast will be
    supportive of short-term training axis of heavy rain, capable of
    generating hourly rainfall 1 to 1.5 inches (perhaps locally higher
    but likely staying below 2 inches). These instances are expected
    to be isolated to widely scattered but would be in excess of
    hourly flash flood guidance which is near 1 inch per hour over
    this region of the central Appalachians.

    Areas affected...South-central PA...Western MD...Eastern WV...Far
    Northwest VA...

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding likely

    Valid 131945Z - 140100Z

    SUMMARY...Continued moderate rainfall with occasional weak
    embedded convective elements within strong orthogonal upslope
    ascent regime. Localized spots of additional 1.5-2.5" totals
    possible within broader .5-1" average by early overnight.

    DISCUSSION...A strong moist dynamic environment across the
    Allegheny section of the larger Allegheny Plateau in far NE WV, W
    MD into south-central PA is expected to persist through the
    evening with a very slow south to north advancement along the
    ridge lines. Highly anomalous warm conveyor belt with nearly all
    CIRA LPW layers at or above the 95th percentiles with maxima at
    the lowest sfc-850. Combine this with persistent, nearly
    orthogonal 35-40kts of 925-700mb winds per VWP is resulting in IVT
    values over 600-700 kg/m/s even without support of increased
    vertical potential from insolation. As a result localized totals
    have already been over 2-4" throughout the day in E WV/W MD and
    starting to reach 2-3" across Somerset county in PA. Slightly
    lower vertical exposure across the Blue Ridge, still spots of
    1.5-2.5" have been observed. Additional rainfall will compound
    and expand ongoing flooding concerns through the complex terrain
    through 00z.

    GOES-E WV suite shows broad closed low across the Ohio Valley,
    though an eastward extension of the low/vorticity maxima is
    lifting across SW VA/S WV at this time, surface winds are backing
    in response to the height-falls and the 850mb trof is sharpening
    increasing directional convergence from more westerly return flow
    intersecting the 30-40kt WCB flow. Additionally, best diffluent
    region of the upper-level jet is starting to lift northward ahead
    of the 850mb trof with apex of the split along the Allegheny ridge
    as noted in the broad cirrus shield (starting to evacuate Northern
    VA/E WV. While there will be some insolation, the timing is
    likely limited across and north of I-64; with strong instability
    gradient noted in RAP analysis. Still, with the DPVA approaching
    and some temps rebounding into the low to mid-70s, modified
    sounding across central VA would support 500-1000 J/kg of MLCAPE
    that could be utilized in further ascent on the 850mb convergence
    line. Upstream convection along Albemarle/Augusta can be seen
    developing in this instability axis and with 700-500mb flow veered
    a bit, the cells should track NNW into the most affected areas
    with localized enhancements to the WCB moisture flux to support
    .5-1"/hr rates for embedded convective elements through the
    complex terrain.

    Rapid refresh guidance (HRRR/RRFS/WoFS) are inconsistent in
    placement, as expected, but continues to support those embedded
    additional 1.5-2.5" totals within a broader field of .5-1" totals,
    likely to maintain on going flooding, slowly expanding coverage
    northward of flooding risk through the early overnight period.

    558 PM EDT Tue May 13 2025

    Areas affected...Western Virginia & Adj portions of Eastern WV...

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding likely

    Valid 132200Z - 140300Z

    SUMMARY...Significant flash flooding event starting to unfold
    across central VA.

    DISCUSSION...21z surface map depicts a highly confluent flow
    strengthening a focus for very slow moving/stationary band with
    training elements aligning into terrain. As noted in MPD 265, an
    eastward extension of the upper-level trof continues to sharpen
    across SW to S VA, supporting lee-cyclogenesis in the vicinity of
    ROA to FVX. Earlier afternoon convection/moderate shield
    precipitation has aided the strengthening of a surface ridge
    extension through the northern Shenandoah Valley which further
    helps to anchor the strengthening band of convective activity from
    Nottoway to Augusta county, VA. Surface Tds in the upper 60s to
    lower 70s remain located along the southwestern gradient of the
    warm conveyor belt, delineated well by warm status clouds in the
    1.6um near IR channel. Solid insolation across NC and southeast
    VA shows a pocket of unstable air with an axis fo 2000 J/kg SBCAPE
    along and south of the confluence band to maintain/focus the
    convective development.

    Recent Visible imagery, RADAR mosaic and lightning detection show
    the strengthening/expanding nature to the entire convective line,
    though the apex near the Blue Ridge continues to focus best
    convergence due to the upslope. Total PWats of 1.3-1.5" and flux
    at the cloud base should support rates of 1.5"/hr, increased
    duration will support 1.5-3hrs of duration with slow northward
    propagation and may result in localized 3-4" totals by 01z,
    maintaining flash flooding conditions, where locally significant
    flooding remains possible with a spot or two of 5"+ possible (in
    line with recent 90th percentile for WoFS 20-21z solutions.=20

    Additionally, a band of scattered storms are lifting north with
    the 700-500mb trof axis across SW VA toward the area, this will
    expand the risk of flash flooding southwestward within the terrain
    where heavy rainfall today has sizably reduced the FFG values
    below 1"/hr and 1.5"/3hr. As such, even as they pass fairly
    quickly with 1-2" totals may trigger localized flash flooding
    upstream, before potentially merging with the line and finally
    ejecting it more northeast into more stable air near and north of
    the Potomac River Valley.

    Areas affected...Blue Ridge Mountains across much of VA and into
    MD/WV/PA, east into portions of the DMV

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding likely

    Valid 140300Z - 140800Z

    Summary...Rainfall rates of 0.5-1.0" (and locally higher) are
    expected to continue over areas that have already received 2-5".
    Scattered instances of flash flooding are likely to continue (with
    locally significant to catastrophic impacts possible across
    portions of the Blue Ridge Mountains).

    Discussion...Areas of stratiform rainfall with 0.5-1.0"/hr rates
    continue across much of VA and into adjacent portions of MD/WV/PA,
    generally along and to the east of the Blue Ridge Mountains.
    Embedded convective elements occasionally produce hourly rates in
    excess of 1" (per MRMS) estimates, and this is problematically
    occurring over areas that have already received 2-5" rainfall
    totals over the past 12-24 hours (with some localities in the
    vicinity of Shenandoah National Park receiving the bulk of that
    amount over the past 3-6 hours, with multiple Flash Flood
    Emergencies currently in effect). Deep cyclonic flow with a
    northwestward translating mid-level vorticity max and accompanying
    diffluence aloft looks to maintain synoptic scale lift and
    upper-level support, while moderate to strong low-level moisture
    transport (most prominent at 925 mb with 30-40 kt flow) via the
    persistent warm conveyor belt directed SE-ESE across the DMV
    maintains lower-level support/convergence. While instability is
    beginning to wane over much of the region (-200 to -800 J/kg of
    MUCAPE over the past 3 hours), buoyancy remains sufficient (MUCAPE
    of 100-500 J/kg) to sustain embedded convective elements (in
    addition to terrain forcing along the Blue Ridge itself).

    Given the aforementioned wet antecedent conditions (with Flash
    Flood Guidance over 3-6 hours generally ranging from 1.0-2.0", and
    locally even below 1.0") and the expected continued rainfall rates
    of 0.5-1.0" (and locally higher) over the next several hours,
    scattered instances of flash flooding are likely to continue (and
    may be locally significant to catastrophic).

    Areas affected...Central Appalachians

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 141556Z - 142100Z

    Summary...Showers and thunderstorms will expand in coverage and
    intensify through the afternoon across the Central Appalachians.
    Rainfall rates of 1-2"/hr are expected, which could result in 2-3"
    of rain in a few areas. This rain atop saturated soils could cause
    instances of flash flooding.

    Discussion...The GOES-E Day-Cloud distinction RGB imagery late
    this morning indicates fresh updrafts beginning to expand across
    northern NC and into parts of southern VA. These updrafts are
    resulting in intensifying showers and isolated thunderstorms noted
    via the regional radar mosaic, and are occurring in a region of
    expanding lightning cast probabilities above 30%. This suggests
    that destabilization is rapidly occurring, which is reflected by
    the SPC RAP analysis showing that CIN has eroded and SBCAPE has
    climbed to as high as 1000 J/kg. Within this environment, forcing
    for ascent is increasing downstream of a potent shortwave, clearly
    noted in WV imagery, lifting northward within a synoptic trough
    oriented NW to SE across the region. Downstream of this trough
    axis, winds veer through the column which is helping to both
    transport higher moisture northward (PWs measured around 1.2
    inches which is close to the 90th percentile for the date) and
    force orographic lift as sfc-925mb winds lift out of the SE,
    leading to an even more impressive overlap of thermodynamics and
    ascent by this aftn.

    The high-res CAMs are in good agreement that clusters of
    thunderstorms will continue to develop and move slowly northward
    on 0-6km mean winds of around 10 kts. These storms will likely
    intensify through the aftn as SBCAPE reaches as high as 1500 J/kg,
    which will be acted upon by the approaching shortwave and
    continued orographic/upslope low-level ascent. This favorable
    environment will support rainfall rates for which both the 12Z
    HREF and 00Z REFS indicate have a 40%-50% probability for
    exceeding 1"/hr, with the HRRR suggesting a threat for more than
    0.5"/15min at times (>2"/hr rates). Although bulk shear will
    remain weak at 20 kts or less, some repeating clusters of storms
    are possible, lengthening the duration of heavy rain which could
    lead to pockets of event-total rainfall reaching 2-3" in some
    areas.

    Although convection will generally remain scattered outside of
    small clusters, flash flooding will be a concern beneath any heavy
    rain producing cells today. This is due primarily to these
    excessive rain rates moving across extremely saturated soils from
    24-hr rainfall as much as 3-6". This has compromised FFG to as low
    as 0.5" to 1" in 3 hours, for which the HREF and REFS both
    forecast a 50-60% chance of exceedance, highest from the Blue
    Ridge of VA northward into the Potomac Highlands and Allegheny
    Mountains.

    Areas affected...Eastern North Carolina and Virginia

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 141733Z - 142300Z

    Summary...Showers and thunderstorms will increase in coverage
    through the afternoon and lift slowly northeast. Rainfall rates
    may exceed 2"/hr at times within this convection, leading to
    pockets of 2-3" of rain or more. This could cause flash flooding,
    especially over urban areas or more sensitive soils.

    Discussion...The regional radar mosaic this afternoon shows
    rapidly expanding coverage of showers and isolated thunderstorms
    from the Piedmont of North Carolina through the Tidewater Region
    of Virginia. This convection is blossoming in response to
    increased ascent through a variety of forcing including a wave of
    low pressure and accompanying stationary front, the Piedmont
    Trough, and a potent shortwave/vorticity maxima noted on the
    GOES-E WV imagery. Together, these are producing deep layer ascent
    into favorable thermodynamics characterized by PWs of 1.4-1.5
    inches, around the 90th percentile at both KMHX and KWAL, with
    MLCAPE measured by the SPC RAP analysis now exceeding 1500 J/kg.
    At the same time, a plume of higher sfc-850mb and 850-700mb noted
    in the CIRA LPW product is surging across Cape Fear, and this will
    additionally enhance moisture/thermodynamics as it lifts northward
    on minimally veered SW sfc-500mb flow. Rainfall rates within this
    developing convection have already been estimated via KRAX and
    KAKQ to exceed 1.5"/hr.

    As the aftn progresses, shower and thunderstorm coverage will
    likely become more widespread as reflected by available CAM
    simulated reflectivity, with intensity also peaking later this
    aftn and into the evening. The HREF and REFS rainfall rate
    probabilities feature a 60-80% chance of exceeding 1"/hr, and
    about a 20% chance of exceeding 2"/hr. Although mean 0-6km winds
    should remain modestly progressive at 15-20 kts to the northeast,
    Corfidi vectors collapse to around 5 kts, which when combined with
    a surge of greater thermodynamics approaching from the south
    suggests short term training/backbuilding is probable to enhance
    the duration of these rain rates. This storm motion collapse could
    also occur along the sea breeze or stationary front, providing
    additional impetus for heavy rainfall accumulations, locally
    exceeding 2-3" of rain.

    Much of this region has been wet the past 7 days as reflected by
    AHPS rainfall departures of 150-300% of normal, leading to 0-40cm
    soil moisture that exceeds the 98th percentile. This has
    compromised FFG to as low as 1"/1hr and 1.5"/3hrs, lowest across
    southeast and south-central VA which is where HREF 3-hr FFG
    exceedance probabilities are highest. Any short term training of
    these intense rain rates, especially across these more sensitive
    soils of VA, or atop any urban areas, could result in instances of
    flash flooding into this evening.

    Areas affected...Northern WV...Southwest PA...Adj Eastern OH...
    Far Western MD...Far Northwest VA...

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 142030Z - 150100Z

    SUMMARY...Slow moving, scattered to regionally dense narrow core
    convective cells capable of 1-1.5"/hr rates/totals over complex
    and recently saturated soils pose localized/focused flash flooding
    potential through evening.

    DISCUSSION...Recent GOES-E Visible loop shows broad area of
    congested cu/Tcu across northern WV into far SW PA/Garrett county
    MD become more numerous and increasing in vertical depth. Area
    has been confined to the north and northeast given prolonged
    stratus deck limiting peak heating. Surface Tds in the upper
    50s/low 60s remains well above normal and with modest mid-level
    lapse rates, SBCAPEs have risen to 1500 J/kg to help
    develop/maintain convective vigor for the next few hours. GOES-E
    WV loop and RAP analysis denotes decaying upper-level low has
    sheared from NW to SE with core of vorticity across the Piedmont
    of NC/S VA with a secondary lobe back toward N OH, this has
    resulted in broad northeastward lift of the trof, but also
    resulted in slowing of the mid-level steering to less than
    15-20kts. This should allow for strong cells to develop and
    collapse within a 1-2 hour period with locally intense rain-rates
    up to 1-1.5".

    While localized, the overall density of the narrow cores is fairly
    close in proximity, that as new development produces outflow and
    seeks out remaining unstable parcels for additional development,
    proximity may allow for isolated spots to have a second intense
    pulse with overall spotty totals perhaps reaching 2", with highest
    probability over NE WV into SW PA, as further north remains more
    stable given the lack of heating this afternoon. Given these
    intense rates over complex terrain naturally with lower FFG;
    recent heavy rainfall in spots over the last day or so as further
    reduced the capacity of soils, with increased run-off likely. As
    such, scattered incidents of flash flooding are considered
    possible through late evening/early overnight as instability is
    exhausted.

    Areas affected...Northern Virginia...

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding likely

    Valid 142200Z - 150300Z

    SUMMARY...Intense thunderstorms capable of 1.5-1.75"/hr
    rates/totals within slow/chaotic cell motions regime resulting in mergers/collisions and localized 2+" totals in vicinity of
    saturated ground conditions likely to induce focused/localized
    incidents of flash flooding through early overnight period.

    DISCUSSION...GOES-E Visible/EIR and regional RADAR mosaic show
    convective evolution is a bit faster than Hi-Res CAM solutions
    suggest in timing. Overall, recent HRRR solutions continue to be
    consistent with other 12/18z Hi-Res CAMs with evolution of
    convective activity/coverage across northern Virginia; however,
    typical to slower timing bias appears to be unfolding at this time.

    Strong vorticity center at southeastward end of
    elongating/shearing upper-level trough from the Great Lakes/Upper
    Ohio Valley is being reinforced by convective activity feeding
    back into the circulation across south-central VA. A slow
    north/northeastward lifting of the wave is supporting weak
    cyclogenesis across central VA, as well as strengthening
    northeasterly flow out of the relatively stable air out of
    Maryland, further reinforcing FGEN from the surface wave near KCHO
    across the western Northern Neck into the Middle Neck before
    angling northward across the Delmarva. As a result, there is a
    strong stability gradient along the Potomac River, making
    potential for heavy rainfall reduced north of it. Weak but
    sufficient low level/boundary layer southeasterly flow is
    providing solid moisture of 1.5"+ north of the vorticity center
    into NoVA. A few hours of solid clearing skies have resulted in
    temps rising into the mid to upper 70s, resulting in increasing
    SBCAPEs over 1000 J/kg toward 2000 J/kg near the tidal Potomac
    River.

    With the vorticity center strengthening, DPVA and modest expansion
    of divergence aloft into strengthening entrance to 30-40kt 3H jet
    streak over PA will continue to support upper-level evacuation for
    developing convective cells/clusters. Additionally, steering flow
    through 500mb will support northwest then westward motion of cells
    across NoVA and with storm influences, may result in slow, chaotic
    motions allowing for increased residency for any given cell.=20
    While wind speeds will be relatively weak at 5-10kts for inflow,
    directional convergence will aid in raising rainfall
    efficiency/potential with 1.5-1.75"/hr rates possible. Given slow
    motions and narrow up/downdrafts, intense cores of 2"+ totals
    remain possible, especially later this evening as cells interact
    with increased terrain across the Blue Ridge.

    Recent significant rainfall further west toward the terrain, has
    sizably reduced FFG values that even 3hr FFG values are less than
    1" increasing the potential for near zero infiltration supporting
    high runoff and likely flash flooding incidents. Further east
    toward I-95, grounds are also have deeper wetness, with ratios in
    the 60-75%, but may have more capacity that all but the highest
    totals/intense rates over 1.5" may result in flash flooding. As
    such, incidents of flash flooding are considered likely, but
    coverage is likely to be wide spread and locally focused.=20

    Areas affected...Central SDak...Northern & Central NEB Sand
    Hills....

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 142349Z - 150449Z

    SUMMARY...Expanding convective cluster with very strong moisture
    flux convergence, stationary downdrafts and some training elements
    suggest spotty 3-4" totals in the Sand Hills and 1.5-2" totals in
    Central SDak. Both may pose a few isolated to widely scattered
    incidents of rapid inundation flooding.

    DISCUSSION...GOES-East and West WV suite shows a pair of strong
    embedded shortwave features (E ID and Northern CO/S WY) carving
    out the broaden north-south synoptic trough over the northern
    Rockies and northern High Plains. The pair have helped to provide
    a strong deep layer convergence zone across the Dakotas generally
    around 101-102W with CIRA LPW denoting pooled mid-level moisture
    along and eastward with well above normal 1.25" total PWat values.
    With the main shortwave exiting the WY/CO Rockies, a downstream
    boundary layer to 700mb low is stacked across west-central NEB
    near LBF, with a strong confluent LLJ streaming from the
    southeast. This LLJ has ample anomalous low level moisture being
    advected on 20-30kts with low 60s at the surface and 40-50s into
    the boundary layer resulting in 1.3" total PWat, but the flux is
    very strong with nearly 90 degrees of directional convergence
    along the shear axis across the Sand Hills into the Dakotas.

    Moderately unstable air has helped to develop convection
    throughout the late afternoon/early evening across Ziebach to
    Jackson county in SDak, with recent increase in vigor noted.=20
    Rates of .5"/hr have steadily increased with some spots nearing
    1". The concern is the deep layer steering has allowed for
    training elements along it resulting in spots of 1-2" totals
    starting to accumulate. Slow eastward propagation is expected but
    will have to wait for a hour or two until height-falls shift the
    convergence eastward. Instability will also be waning through
    that time period, so there is a narrow N-S axis for these
    increased totals. Localized spots of 1.5-2"+ are at the tipping
    point of 1-3hr FFG values in the area, so a few localized spots
    may be exceeded resulting in some flash flooding conditions in the
    next 3 hours.

    Further south into the Sand Hills, soil conditions can infiltrate
    a higher volume of water quickly; however, the very strong
    moisture flux convergence along with 1500-2000 J/kg of instability
    advected will continue to support strong/broadening updrafts.=20
    This has been particularly impressive in S Cherry county and has
    been expanding northward and southward along a stationary front.=20
    Large hail signatures have over-estimated rainfall rates, but the
    amount of flux is likely supporting 1.5"+/hr rates as noted by an
    observation of 1.2"/hr in Mullen, NEB. Further saturation of the
    deep layer profile will further enhance rates to near 2"/hr in
    spots. Strong height-falls from the ejecting shortwave are
    resulting in nearly stationary cell motions as pull west is
    counteracted by propagation vectors to the east-northeast. As a
    result, local totals are likely nearing exceeding 2-2.5"; with an
    additional 2-2.5" possible in spots. As such localized 3-4+"
    totals may occur locally. FFG values suggest infiltration through
    the sandy soils should take most of these totals, but the shear magnitude/volume across areas may still result in localized
    flooding/ponding especially near roads/urban locations. As such,
    flooding is considered possible across north-central NEB too, but
    areas along/surrounding the Sand Hills will be prone for flooding
    in south-central SDak before the expanding complex forward
    propagates in earnest toward 03-04z.

    Areas affected...eastern WV into western VA

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 151838Z - 160015Z

    Summary...Showers and thunderstorms are expected to develop over
    the higher terrain of eastern WV into western VA within the next
    1-3 hours. While movement of cells should be generally
    progressive, exceedance of very low flash flood guidance (FFG) may
    result in spotty runoff issues atop sensitive grounds.

    Discussion...Visible satellite imagery at 1815Z showed an
    expanding field of cumulus with increasing vertical development
    over the central Appalachians of eastern WV to the Blue Ridge
    Mountains of western VA. This region was located behind a
    departing mid to upper-level trough over the northern Mid-Atlantic
    coast within a WNW flow aloft. While the deeper moisture axis was
    located over the western Atlantic, weakly anomalous precipitable
    water (PW) values of approximately 1.0 to 1.3 inches remained via
    area GPS PWs and a special 17Z sounding from RNK, with some
    contribution to the low to mid-level layer coming from the
    southwest via LPW imagery. Daytime heating has also contributed to
    500 to ~1500 J/kg MLCAPE across the region via SPC mesoanalysis
    data and the RNK sounding.

    Continued heating of the elevated heat source(s) will likely
    contribute to convective initiation within the next 1-3 hours,
    based on satellite trends and short term RRFS/HRRR forecasts.
    Effective bulk shear values of 35 to 45 kt combined with the
    instability values should support some organized cells, capable of
    higher rainfall efficiency. Individual cell motions are expected
    to be fairly progressive toward the E to SE at 15-25 kt, but
    potential for 0.5 to 1.0 in/hr rates will exist and considering
    potential for mergers (perhaps slightly higher rates) could yield
    1-2 inches through 00Z. While this is not a typical flash flood
    setup for the region, conditions on the ground are hyper-sensitive
    due to recent heavy rain with FFG values as low as 0.25 to 0.5
    inches in an hour in some locations, with much of the outlooked
    area containing FFG below 1 in/hr.

    Areas affected...Eastern North Carolina...

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 151945Z - 160100Z

    SUMMARY...Lingering deep moisture and slow, potentially multiple
    cell/repeating tracks crossing recently saturated grounds pose
    scattered incident or two of flash flooding this evening.

    DISCUSSION...19z Surface and RAP analysis denotes a pool of
    lingering enhanced deep layer moisture across eastern NC that has
    had near full isolation throughout the day resulting in quite
    unstable environment. Sfc Tds in the low 70s with low to upper
    80s extending from the VA/NC line south to a few 90s near
    Lumberton, NC; and modest 7 to 7.5C/km lapse rates have resulted
    in a pool of MLCAPE over 3000 J/kg across the area of concern.=20=20
    Surface analysis shows a broad surface trof from upstate NC toward
    a weak low near DAN/GSO with the Fall-line trough extending
    southward through central SC; stronger winds from SC at 10-15kts
    slow in proximity to the temperature gradient increasing flux
    convergence.=20

    GOES-E Visible loop shows enhanced convergence lines with the
    sea-breeze, but overall general congestus across central NC is
    starting to bubble to a few TCu/CBs near RAH. Deep layer
    850-700mb southwesterly flow will veer a bit more with slightly
    confluent streamlines across the state in proximity to the surface
    trof and low. Isolated cells will build to be scattered through
    the evening, but given updraft strength and flux capability of TPW
    AoA 1.5", should support 1.5-1.75"/hr rates. Cell motions of
    10-15kts will help with duration and may support some spots of
    enhanced rainfall. As cells become more clustered toward the east
    into the late evening (potentially locked to terrain due to
    bay/sea-breeze boundaries), there are increased chances of
    localized 2-3" totals.=20

    Normally, soils would support these rates, but given recent
    400-600% of normal rainfall across portions of E NC per AHPS, and
    soil saturation ratios above the 98th percentile in the range of
    65-80% (greater along and east of I-95), FFG values may have
    rebounded a bit too quickly but 3hr FFG value of 2.5-3" are still
    in range of some exceedance, the risk of limited infiltration and
    rapid inundation flooding is considered possible.=20=20

    Areas affected...Northeast Arkansas through Central Kentucky

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 161134Z - 161630Z

    Summary...Repeating heavy thunderstorms continue developing from
    northeast Arkansas through central Kentucky this morning. While
    movement of cells remains progressive, cell mergers and repeating
    activity makes flash flooding possible.

    Discussion...Numerous supercells have developed ahead of a
    stationary front over northeast Arkansas, the Missouri Bootheel
    and western Kentucky. Gulf-sourced moisture (PW of 1.8") is
    pooling along the front with higher instability (MUCAPE >2000
    J/kg) and powerful deep layer WSWly flow (60kt) allowing for heavy
    repeating cells. Rainfall up around 1.5" in the past hour as been
    estimated from the heaviest cells which have large hail. The 09Z
    RRFS is decent with its current depiction with a diurnal increase
    in coverage through the rest of the morning. Flow parallel to the
    front will allow repeating storms.

    Flash flood guidance is 1.5 to 2" per hour, so flash flooding
    should be limited to where repeating heavy activity occurs.

    Areas affected...Southeast Pennsylvania Through New Jersey

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 161406Z - 161905Z

    Summary...Organized thunderstorms progress to the northern
    Mid-Atlantic coast through the early afternoon. 1.5"/hr rainfall
    rates could cause localized flash flooding, particularly over
    urban areas such as Philadelphia and Wilmington, DE.

    Discussion...Mesoscale convective system (MCS) progressing over
    Pennsylvania will continue to move ESE over a low amplitude trough
    extending up the Eastern Seaboard. Gulf-sourced moisture, with PW
    of 1.5" (2 sigma over normal) spreading up from the Southeast is
    riding over a warm front extending from southern PA through the
    Delaware Bay. Instability is sufficient (around 1000 J/kg) along
    the frontal boundary with a notable decrease below 500 J/kg over
    central New Jersey which is directly downstream of the activity.
    However, upscale growth is seen in IR imagery with continued
    cooling in the core of the system over east-central PA.

    Hourly CAMs (HRRR and RRFS) have struggled with intensity and
    timing of this system. However, given the sensitivity of the large
    urbanized areas downstream of the MCS and history of leading cells
    adding to rainfall impacts, there is a localized flash flood risk
    through mid-afternoon.

    Additional risk for heavy rain in the Mid-Atlantic later this
    afternoon and evening will continue to be monitored.

    Areas affected...South-Central Appalachians

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 161519Z - 162015Z

    Summary...Risk of repeating heavy thunderstorms across the
    south-central Appalachians this afternoon. Fast motion to these
    storms will continue, so flash flooding is possible where cell
    mergers and repeating of the heaviest activity occurs.

    Discussion...Numerous supercells embedded in a quasi-linear system
    east of a stationary front will continue to develop and shift east
    over the south-central Appalachians this afternoon. Gulf-sourced
    moisture (PW of 1.7 to 1.9") is pooling ahead of the front with
    higher instability MLCAPE 1500 to 2500 J/kg) and powerful deep
    layer WSWly flow (50 to 60kt) allowing for heavy repeating cells.
    Peak hourly rainfall estimates of 1.0 to 1.5" per hour continue in
    the heaviest cells which also have hail present. The RRFS
    continues to have a decent handle on this regional activity
    especially compared to recent HRRRs which are too late with
    activity. The 13Z RRFS indicates potential for 3" over the next
    few hours which is reasonable given the repeating threat from flow
    parallel to the front.

    Flash flood guidance decreases east from KY with terrain with
    three-hour values of 1.5 to 2" decreasing to as low as 1". Given
    the axis of higher instability continuing through the crest of the Appalachians, there is a notable threat for flash flooding in
    spite of the fast cell motion.

    SUMMARY...Widely scattered but very slow moving thunderstorms with
    capability of 1.5"/hr and focused spots of 2-3" are possible,
    resulting in possible localized flash flooding.

    DISCUSSION...Well before arrival of eastern edge of very
    broad/deep layered cyclone across the Great Lakes, a surge of
    enhanced moisture sourced from the tropics/sub-tropics a week or
    so ago lifted northward across northern New England and has
    lingered in place. Total moisture values of 1.25-1.3", mainly
    loaded from the surface to 700mb as noted by upper 50s low 60s
    Tds, and 850-700mb CIRA LPW within the 95th-99th percentile (for
    the running mean over the last 20 years). Combined with solid
    clear skies and ample insolation throughout the day ahead of forcing/approaching cirrus deck, CAPEs have risen to 1000-1500
    J/kg across the area of concern.=20=20

    VWP and RAP analysis shows recent switch of boundary layer (850mb
    winds) to the south with values increasing to 15kts. Given weak
    capping, this has been sufficient convergence in proximity to
    higher terrain/upslope to break out isolated to widely scattered
    convection over the last few hours from the Presidental Range
    through the northern deep woods of Maine with a few cells reaching
    -45 to -50C. GOES-E WV suite shows vorticity center at mid-level
    intersection of weak warm conveyor belt lifting northeast but will
    be also peeling more northward over the next few hours this will
    bring some weak favorable upper-level divergence ascent pattern to
    help maintain convection but also result in further expansion of
    the 500-1000mb thickness ridge. With mean steering flow being
    weak at 5-10kts, this further helps to reduce forward propagation
    vectors, with some hints in Hi-Res CAMs that retrograding cells
    may occur toward the north and northwest with the approaching
    height-falls. This should support longer localized duration and
    with increasing convective coverage, higher potential for cell
    interaction and mergers. Given mild moisture flux and
    instability rates of 1.25-1.5" are possible. As such, localized
    widely scattered incidents of 2-3"+ may occur especially with any mergers/repeating through the late afternoon.

    While the area is remote/low population, it is fairly rugged and
    FFG values (minus the localized maxima near/north of Laconia, NH)
    of 1-1.5"/hr & 1.5-2" are well within range of being exceeded
    within/near the cores of these cells, and as such an incident or
    two of localized flash flooding is considered possible through
    00z.=20=20

    Areas affected...Much of Kentucky...Adj Southern IL/IND...

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 162200Z - 170330Z

    SUMMARY...Individual cells likely to expand and become more
    linearly oriented, tracking through areas already saturated.=20
    Additional 2-3" totals (in 1-3hrs) over the 1-3" from this
    morning, may result in scattered incidents of flash flooding into
    early overnight period.

    DISCUSSION...Initial cluster of super-cells is tracking through S
    IL entering western KY at this time, with additional development
    along the unstable areas surrounding them. Further expansion of
    the cluster is expected over the next few hours as cells continue
    to march through broad nose of 30-40kt southwesterly LLJ.=20
    Environment across western and central KY has nicely rebounded
    with temperatures into the mid 80s over upper 60s/low 70s Tds,
    while insolation was limited as dense high-CB anvils obscure the
    ground, instability has built back to well sufficient levels to
    maintain strong buoyancy through the late evening/early overnight
    period as cells rapidly race eastward. Strong moisture flux into
    the broad super-celll updrafts have increased rainfall efficiency
    over the last few hours with quick 1-1.5" sub-hourly totals
    estimated and some .75-1" totals noted upstream in SE MO.=20

    Initial convection will continue to expand and feed along the
    eastern edge of the LLJ with 1.5" total PWats feeding in, but
    overall the LLJ will narrow and veer ever so slightly, to become a
    bit more oblique to the outflow boundaries and allow for
    isentropic ascent/convergence along the flanking lines. Deep
    layer steering, while very strong and mean winds over 60kts, will
    slowly orient a bit more parallel to the updrafts supporting some
    short-term training of the flanking cells. 18z HRRR 15-minute
    rain totals occasionally reach 1.25-1.5" with the line as it
    progresses and as such spots of 2-3" are expected (generally
    aligning with 20-21z WoFS 50th to 90th percentile totals). Slow
    southward propagation will expose much of western and central KY
    to this additional heavy rainfall. This is of greater concern
    given the 1-3" totals that fell this morning. NASA SPoRT 0-40cm
    soil ratios got as high as 80-85% and FFG values reduced to less
    than 1.5"/hr across much of the area of concern with spots below
    .75"/hr into the more rugged terrain of central to eastern KY.=20

    Additionally, secondary development is probable along the cold
    front that has lagged the initial development with some continued
    heating and return moisture/instability flux through the MS River
    Valley. Additional upstream development, may further aid
    scattered repeating, further exacerbating any flooding conditions.
    So all considered, while severe weather is primary threat,
    especially across the next few hours; heavy rainfall will present
    sufficient totals to result in possible scattered incidents of
    flash flooding as well.

    Areas affected...Northeast AR...Northwest/Northern Middle
    TN...Bootheel of MO...

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 170110Z - 170415Z

    SUMMARY...Upstream redevelopment and flattening steering flow
    support training environment for increasingly efficient rainfall
    producing thunderstorms.

    DISCUSSION...Regional RADAR and GOES-E 10.3um EIR loop shows line
    of severe/enhanced V overshooting top signatures continue to
    back-build along/ahead of the slowly advancing cold front across
    SE MO into NW AR. Strong speed shear aloft shows narrow wedge but
    fairly undirectional steering flow, generally parallel to the
    developing line along the front. Surface inflow of low to mid 70s
    Tds on 15-20kts of flow, veers to 45kts out of the WSW at 850mb,
    increasing moisture flux convergence to the updrafts. The deeper
    aligning LLJ is also increasing overall moisture values from 1.5
    toward 1.7/1.8" in total PWat values. As such, rainfall
    efficiency is increasing with rates currently reaching 1.5"/hr but
    will start climbing toward 2"/hr. Combine this with short-term
    training profiles and localized totals of 2-4" are becoming
    increasingly possible, especially as mature cells to the north
    increase cold pool geneation and propagate more south of due east
    into the path of these upstream developers.

    Cells are along the south and southwest edge of areas that
    received heavier rainfall this morning and FFGs reflect this
    ranging to aroudn 1.5"/hr and 2-2.5"/3hrs. Further south of the
    area of concern where recent drier conditions have existed, FFG
    values are about a 'category' higher at 2-2.5"/hr and
    2.5-3.5"/3hrs.=20=20

    Areas affected...Portions of the OH/TN Valleys

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 170315Z - 170915Z

    SUMMARY...Strong to severe thunderstorms will continue into the
    overnight hours across portions of the OH/TN Valleys, and will be
    capable of also producing heavy rainfall totals. A combination of
    cell-mergers and cell-training with moist antecedent conditions
    will maintain a threat for scattered areas of flash flooding.

    DISCUSSION...A well-organized severe weather outbreak continues to
    unfold across areas of southern OH down through especially central
    to southwest KY and northwest TN as a deep layer closed low
    advances east across the upper Midwest and sends a cold front
    southeastward into a very moist and unstable airmass.

    MLCAPE values this evening remain locally quite high across
    especially central KY through western TN with values of 2000 to
    3000 J/kg in place. This strong instability continues to work in
    tandem with enhanced shear profiles with 50 to 70+ kts of
    effective bulk shear to support supercell convection with an
    evolution into multiple linear bands/QLCS of activity over the
    next several hours as the broader convective threat advances
    eastward.

    The onset of nocturnal cooling will be initiating a gradual
    stabilization of the boundary layer and thus introducing some
    low-level CINH, but the hires model guidance suggests some
    intensification of the southwest low-level jet to as much as 50+
    kts by 06Z. This should maintain a strong degree of moisture and
    instability transport up across especially central and northern TN
    through central and eastern KY that will be conducive for
    maintaining a corridor of well-organized convection with heavy
    rainfall rates.

    Rainfall rates with the stronger and more organized cells will be
    capable of reaching 2 inches/hour, and with some likelihood for
    seeing cell-merger activity and cell-training, some additional
    rainfall totals of 2 to 4 inches will be possible. This is
    consistent with the 00Z HREF guidance, and it should be noted that
    recent HRRR runs overall appear to be locally a bit underdone with
    its QPF potential considering the high rainfall rates and
    cell-training concerns.

    The antecedent conditions across much of the region are quite
    moist, and some areas saw heavy rainfall just within the last 12
    to 18 hours. As a result, the additional rainfall amounts may
    result in scattered areas of flash flooding overnight.

    Areas affected...northeastern NY into VT/NH

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 171636Z - 172230Z

    SUMMARY...Localized to widely scattered instances of flash
    flooding will be possible from northeastern NY into north-central
    New England through early evening. While the majority of cells are
    expected to be progressive, cell alignment will occasionally favor
    areas of short term training, capable of producing 1-2 inches of
    rain in an hour or less.

    DISCUSSION...16Z visible satellite and radar imagery showed
    scattered thunderstorms from eastern Lake Ontario into the
    Adirondacks, in the wake of a preceding swath of
    showers/thunderstorms advancing through VT. The storms over
    northeastern NY were located just downstream of the leading edge
    of a mid-upper level closed low centered over Lake Huron, within
    the diffluent left exit region of a 90-110 kt upper level speed
    max located just south of the closed low. The environment over
    northeastern NY into VT contained 500-1000 J/kg MLCAPE and 1.1 to
    1.4 inches of precipitable water per 16Z SPC mesoanalysis data.

    Daytime heating in the wake of overcast skies departing toward the
    east from VT (and eventually parts of NH) should allow for an
    expansion of CAPE across the region with 500-1500 J/kg likely from
    eastern NY into central/north-central New England over the next
    2-4 hours. Forecast stalling of a warm front over southern NH
    should limit the northeastward extent of instability and therefore
    rainfall intensity over eastern NH at least through late
    afternoon. A mixture of storm types will be possible given
    sufficient shear and instability but individual cells are expected
    to average 25-35 kt from the southwest. The concern for flash
    flooding will come from multiple rounds of cells over the same
    location and/or brief alignment of cells with the mean wind to
    support short term training. These scenarios could allow for 1-2
    inches of rain in an hour, or even as short as 15-30 minutes,
    given the strong ascent ahead of the upper low. 1-2 inches of rain
    (perhaps localized 3 inch totals) will be capable of localized to
    widely scattered flash flooding through 22Z. However, the coverage
    of these higher rainfall totals should stay somewhat limited
    across the region.

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 180513Z - 180913Z

    SUMMARY...Some clusters of locally repeating/training showers and
    thunderstorms south of Little Rock and into the Pine Bluff
    vicinity may continue for a few more hours and result in a
    continuation of at least an isolated urban flash flood threat.

    DISCUSSION...The latest GOES-E IR satellite imagery along with
    regional radar shows a couple of clusters of cold-topped
    convection impacting areas of central AR. There is evidence of a
    modest MCV traversing the region which is interacting with the
    proximity of stationary front and a moist/unstable airmass pooled
    along it.

    Despite the increase in boundary layer CINH associated with
    nocturnal cooling, there remains as much as 2000 to 3000 J/kg of
    MUCAPE which coupled with a modest southerly low-level jet of 20
    to 30 kts overrunning the front continues to help favor some
    active convection across the region.

    The southwest flank of the overall MCS has been characterized by
    some cooling convective tops over the last couple of hours as this moist/unstable airmass continues to lift into the region in an
    elevated fashion. Over the next few hours, the convection will be
    capable of locally repeating/training over the same location, with
    areas south of Little Rock and especially near the Pine Bluff area
    seeing the greatest threat of this.

    Rainfall rates with the stronger storms will be capable of
    reaching 1.5 to 2.5 inches/hour, and some isolated additional
    totals of 3 to 4 inches will be possible. A localized urban flash
    flood threat will exist as a result.

    Areas affected...Northwest and North TX into far southern OK an

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 182150Z - 190300Z

    Summary...Rapidly growing thunderstorms near a bulge in the
    dryline may result in rainfall rates as high as 2-3"/hr (and
    short-term totals of 3-5" with localized backbuilding). Isolated
    to scattered instances of flash flooding are possible.

    Discussion...Thunderstorms are rapidly initiating late this
    afternoon along a bulge in the dryline in the vicinity of Abilene,
    TX, near a maximum in surface-based instability (with 21z RAP
    analysis indicating 3000-5000 J/kg of SBCAPE across the greater
    North TX region). Convection should rapidly grow upscale in this
    mesoscale environment, which is also characterized by precipitable
    water values of 1.5-1.9 inches (between the 90th percentile and
    max moving average, per FWD sounding climatology), and (equally
    anomolous) deep layer shear of 50-60 kts. GOES-East water vapor
    imagery suggests a subtle shortwave trough near Midland, TX may be
    contributing to enhanced lift, and an associated ~100 kt jet
    streak (embedded within the broader phased jet structure) may also
    be ideally situated to the north (providing enhanced upper
    divergence via the right-entrance region). Storm mode may
    initially favor splitting supercells (relatively straight
    hodographs) with bunkers right vectors favoring much slower ENE
    motion (~25 kts) relative to the mean wind (~45 kts). With
    rainfall rates as high as 2-3"/hr anticipated, any backbuilding
    and training could result in significant short-term (3-6 hour)
    localized totals. This is expected to drive the greatest localized
    flash flood threat to the west of the DFW metro area (though
    upscale development into an MCS may allow for upwind propagation
    towards the ESE, and backbuilding along the western flank could
    bring training of heavier totals farther east into the DFW metro
    area).

    Hi-res CAMs are in relatively good agreement with regard to
    convective initiation along the (very well modeled) bulge in the
    dryline, though resulting QPF does vary quite dramatically. Some
    of the stronger solutions suggest the potential for 3-5" totals
    (mainly the FV3 and RRFS, the later of which has outlier solutions
    of 5"+ with some of the hourly runs). Taking a more probabilistic
    approach with the HREF and RRFSe ensemble systems (18z and 12z
    runs, respectively), a 40-km neighborhood method suggests a chance
    (15-30%) of 3" exceedance and a slight chance (10-20%) of 5"
    exceedance. These probability maxima are mostly concentrated to
    the north and west of the DFW metro areas, but an upwind
    propagating MCS could bring the threat of these totals into the
    DFW metro (and surroudning) area as well. Isolated to scattered
    instances of flash flooding are possible (and could be locally

    Areas affected...Central to Southeast NE...North-Central to
    Northeast KS

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 190220Z - 190600Z

    SUMMARY... Scattered to numerous clusters of strong to severe
    thunderstorms will pose an increasing threat for isolated to
    scattered areas of flash flooding over the next few hours.

    DISCUSSION...The mid-evening GOES-E IR satellite imagery shows
    scattered to numerous areas of heavy showers and thunderstorms
    impacting much of central to southeast NE and into north-central
    to northeast KS. Very cold cloud tops are associated with the
    activity and there continues to be an array of supercell activity
    embedded within the larger scale convective envelope across the
    central Plains region.

    Ejecting height falls associated with a deep layer trough over the
    central Rockies will continue to advance gradually east over the
    Plains which will encourage the persistence of a strong south to
    southeast low-level jet of 40 to 60 kts over the region going into
    the overnight period. The low-level jet is overrunning a
    well-defined frontal zone and is yielding strong moisture and
    instability transport with a corridor of enhanced isentropic
    ascent poleward of the front.

    MUCAPE values across southern NE through eastern KS in close
    proximity to the front are as high as 1500 to 2500 J/kg and with
    strong effective bulk shear values of 50+ kts favoring
    well-organized clusters of convection. This setup should continue
    over the next few hours going through at least 06Z (1AM CDT), and
    with the enhanced moisture transport and convergence near the
    front, there will an environment conducive for additional
    cell-mergers and some cell-training.

    Rainfall rates are expected to locally reach 2.5 to 2.5
    inches/hour, with some additional storm totals of 3 to 4+ inches
    going through 06Z (1AM CDT). While antecedent conditions across
    the region are generally dry, the arrival of heavy convective
    rainfall along with the localized persistence of it over the next
    few hours will support a concern for isolated to scattered areas
    of flash flooding. The more urbanized locations in particular will
    be more sensitive to this threat.

    Areas affected...Far Southeast KS...Southwest MO

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 190450Z - 191030Z

    SUMMARY...Showers and thunderstorms may become a bit more
    concentrated over the next few hours over areas of far southeast
    KS and into southwest MO. Heavy rainfall rates and locally
    repeating cell-activity may result in sufficient rainfall totals
    for scattered areas of flash flooding overnight.

    DISCUSSION...Strong warm air advection with enhanced low-level
    moisture transport along with proximity of a strong elevated
    instability gradient is expected to set the stage for heavy shower
    and thunderstorm activity becoming a bit more concentrated over
    the next few hours across areas of far southeast KS and into
    southwest MO. This is all focusing well ahead of a deep layer
    trough edging out into the central Plains as a warm front
    gradually lifts northward across the region.

    A sharp instability gradient is noted in a northwest to southeast
    fashion across eastern KS down through far southwest MO and into
    northwest AR where this front is located, and there is as much as
    1500 to 2500 J/kg of MUCAPE along the boundary. This coupled with
    strong shear profiles and the nose of a 30 to 40+ kt southerly
    low-level jet has been yielding increasingly concentrated areas of
    heavy showers and thunderstorms over the last couple of hours.

    Given some additional nocturnal enhancement in the low-level jet
    overnight, this convection may attain some greater coverage and
    organization with MCS development/evolution possible near the warm
    front. The convection should tend to advance off to the east with
    time, with some east-southeast motion possible along the
    instability gradient if convection grows upscale into an MCS
    overnight.

    The 00Z hires model CAMs are generally in terrible agreement with
    respect to the convective details overnight, but recent GOES-E IR
    satellite imagery is showing cooling cloud tops over especially
    far southeast KS, and this trend favor an expansion of convection
    into southwest MO in at least the near-term.

    Rainfall rates with the stronger storms may reach 1.5 to 2
    inches/hour, and some localized storm totals by dawn may reach 3
    to 4 inches. This will be supported by a conducive environment for
    some repeating cell-activity near the aforementioned warm front.
    Some scattered areas of flash flooding will be possible where
    these heavier rainfall totals set up.

    Areas affected...Northern MS and Northern AL

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 190540Z - 190940Z

    SUMMARY...A locally training band of showers and thunderstorms
    with high rainfall rates will continue to impact portions of
    northern MS while gradually moving east into downstream areas of
    northern AL over the next 2 to 3 hours.

    DISCUSISON...The latest radar imagery shows a broken band of heavy
    showers and thunderstorms traversing portions of northern MS
    (especially north of Tupelo) with an alignment north of a
    quasi-stationary front. This convection which is effectively a
    small-scale MCS has been rather long-lived at this point and
    continues to move east along a well-defined instability gradient
    pooled along the front.

    There continues to be as much as 1500 to 2000 J/kg of MLCAPE over
    areas of northeast MS through northern AL, and the convective mass
    will likely tend to be sustainable for at least a few more hours
    given favorable low-level moisture convergence nosing in along the
    southwest flank of the convection where warm air advcetion is more
    pronounced. Additionally, there is proximity of at least a weak
    MCV near the MS/TN border which should favor at least some modest
    mid-level forcing.

    Rainfall rates with this MCS have had a history of being quite
    high and upwards of 1.5 to 2.5 inches/hour. Over the next 2 to 3
    hours, the RRFS which has the best handle on this system (albeit a
    tad too far north), suggests an eastward extension of heavy
    convective rains that would allow for northern AL to be impacted.

    Some of these areas in general across northern MS and northern AL
    are quite moist from recent rainfall, and the arrival of as much
    as another 2 to 3+ inches of rain may allow for some runoff
    concerns and at least an isolated threat for flash flooding.

    This will especially be the case over northern AL where there is
    some locally higher/sloped terrain and thus potential for more
    efficient runoff given the high rainfall rates. Areas that will
    likely be impacted over the next 2 to 3 hours will include Muscle
    Shoals and eventually the Huntsville vicinity.

    Areas affected...Southeast NE

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 190630Z - 191030Z

    SUMMARY... Heavy showers and thunderstorms will continue to impact
    areas of southeast NE for a few more hours which will maintain a
    threat of isolated to scattered areas of flash flooding. The more
    urbanized locations will be at greatest for any impacts.

    DISCUSSION...GOES-E IR satellite imagery along with the regional
    radar mosaic shows an expansive clustering of heavy showers and
    thunderstorms over southeast NE which continues to be driven by a
    strong warm air advection pattern downstream of an upper-level
    trough ejecting out across the central Plains.

    Enhanced moisture and instability transport with aid from a south
    to southeast low-level jet of 40 to 60 kts continues to surge over
    a warm front. MUCAPE values 1000 to 2000 J/kg remain in place, and
    the strong isentropic ascent/frontogenetical forcing on the
    poleward side of the warm front will help to maintain the
    organized elevated convective threat for at least a few more hours.

    Rainfall rates will continue in the near-term to be as high as 1.5
    to 2 inches/hour, and there will still be a threat for some
    localized small-scale linear bands of convection that train over
    the same area. This may yield some additional spotty rainfall
    amounts of 2 to 4 inches.

    The additional rains over the next few hours will maintain a
    threat for isolated to scattered areas of flash flooding with much
    of this concern focus around the more urbanized locations.

    Areas affected...eastern KS into northwest MO and far southern
    central IA

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding likely

    Valid 192047Z - 200047Z

    Summary...Continued 1-2" hourly totals likely to train over the
    same areas, resulting in short-term (3-4 hour) rainfall totals of
    3-5". Scattered instances of flash flooding are likely.

    Discussion...Clusters of thunderstorms have rapidly developed and
    organized across eastern KS into northwest MO this afternoon,
    within an area of strong warm air advection (along a warm front
    and extending well into the warm sector of an associated cyclone).
    The mesoscale environment is characterized by MUCAPE of 2000-3000
    J/kg, PWATs of 1.4-1.8 inches (between the 90th percentile and
    daily max record, per TOP sounding climatology), and (equally
    anomolous) deep layer (0-6 km) shear of 50-60 kts. Storms are fast
    moving in this environment (generally following the 850-300 mb
    flow of 40-50 kts towards the NNE), but the tendency to orient
    parallel to the mean flow is resulting in highly efficient hourly
    rainfall totals of 1-2" (per MRMS estimates). Continued training
    of these efficient cells is likely, resulting in localized
    short-term (3-4 hour) totals of 3-5" (and supported by 12z HREF
    40-km neighborhood probabilities of 20-40% for 3-hr 3" exceedance
    through 00z). Scattered instances of flash flooding are likely.

    Areas affected...far North TX into much of central and eastern OK,
    adjacent portions of far northwest AR, southwest MO, southeast KS

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding likely

    Valid 192155Z - 200200Z

    Summary...Hourly rainfall as high as 2-3" to result in additional
    localized 3-6" through 02z (9pm CDT). Scattered instances of flash
    flooding are likely (and may be locally significant).

    Discussion...Discrete clusters of supercells are gradually
    becoming more prolific across far North TX into much of central
    and eastern OK, within a mesoscale environment characterized by
    SBCAPE of 2500-5000 J/kg, PWATs of 1.6-2.0 inches (near or
    exceeding the daily max value, per OUN/SGF sounding climatology),
    and deep layer (0-6 km) shear of 55-65 kts (above the 90th
    percentile). While storm motions are generally fast in this
    environment (with both the deep layer mean flow and bunkers right
    vectors 45-55 kts towards the NNE-NE), storms are increasingly
    organizing linearly with localized training of cells already
    resulting in some 2-3" totals (with MRMS and some local
    observations starting to indicate these totals in as little as an
    hour). As convection continues to organize with the approach of a
    potent shortwave trough over the TX Panhandle, expect convection
    to continue to proliferate and grow upscale with already
    substantial divergence aloft only further increasing (as the MPD
    region is within a very favorable placement between semi-phased
    subtropical and polar jet streaks). This may eventually result in
    somewhat slower (20-30 kt) storm motions more generally towards
    the east as convection begins to propagate upwind (towards the
    low-level jet, per the Corfidi vectors).

    Until convection organizes more linearly with meaningful eastward
    propagation, expect storms to continue to increase in coverage and
    result in additional localized training elements with additional
    localized totals as high as 3-6" possible (per hourly HRRR and
    experimental RRFS output, which has corrected westward in recent
    runs relative to the 12z HREF and 00z RRFS suites). Experimental
    WoFS 90th percentile of accumulated rainfall also agrees with this
    potential (and even indicates the potential for isolated 6"+
    totals north of the DFW metro area in far North TX with
    backbuilding towards the dryline with unimpeded strong low-level
    inflow from the Gulf). Scattered instances of flash flooding are
    likely (and may be locally significant, especially if 6"+ totals
    occur over sensitive localities that have seen as much as 2-3" of
    rain over the past 3-24 hours).

    844 PM EDT Mon May 19 2025

    Areas affected...northeast KS, northwest MO, south-central IA, and
    far southeast NE

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding likely

    Valid 200040Z - 200430Z

    Summary...Continued thunderstorms (up to 1-2"/hr rates) within the
    warm sector of a nearby low pressure system will likely result in
    additional localized 2-4" totals through 0430z (1130 PM CDT).
    Scattered to numerous instances of flash flooding are likely (and
    may locally be significant in the vicinity of the Kansas City
    metro area).

    Discussion...Thunderstorms are once again expanding in coverage
    once again across portions of eastern KS, this time a bit farther
    west closer to the dryline (which is in the process of being
    overtaken by a lagging cold front). While much of the earlier
    convection has progressed north and east since the prior MPD,
    rainfall totals over the past 4 hours have been locally as high as
    1.5-5.0" (with the highest totals near and immediately north and
    northeast of the KC metro, where MRMS FLASH CREST unit streamflow
    indicating ongoing minor to moderate flooding, which has been
    gradually subsiding). Despite the earlier convection, the
    mesoscale environment remains supportive of heavy rainfall, with
    MLCAPE of 500-2500 J/kg, PWATs of 1.3-1.7 inches (above the 90th
    percentile, per TOP sounding climatology), and highly anomalous
    deep layer (0-6 km) shear of 50-60 kts. The recent convection
    along the dryline has been much slower to advance with localized
    backbuilding, but should start to propagate upwind (towards the
    ENE-E at 20-30 kts) as cold pools becoming more established (and
    eventually by the synoptic forcing of the cold front).=20

    The expectation is for localized 1-2"/hr rates to continue in this
    favorable environment, given observational trends and recent
    hi-res model data. This convection is likely to pass over the same
    areas that have recently received heavy rainfall, and may even
    locally train/repeat as well (as the mean 850-300 mb flow remains
    parallel to the dryline and ongoing convection). This should
    result in additional localized totals of 2-4" (as indicated
    consistently by runs of the HRRR since 20z, as well as the 50th
    percentile of accumulated rainfall from the experimental WoFS).
    Given 3-hr Flash Flood Guidance (FFG) of 2.0-3.0" (which largely
    doesn't take into account the recent rainfall), scattered to
    numerous instances of flash flooding are likely.

    Areas affected...southeast OK, northwest and central AR, adjacent
    portions of far North TX

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding likely

    Valid 200200Z - 200600Z

    Summary...Linear convective system to continue producing hourly
    1-3" rainfall, additional localized 3-hr totals as high as 3-5"
    (through 05z, midnight CDT). Scattered to numerous instances of
    flash flooding are likely to continue, and may locally
    significant/life threatening.

    Discussion...Thunderstorms have undergone significant linear
    organization across portions of the Southern Plains, now moving
    gradually into the Lower MS Valley as the QLCS (quasi-linear
    convective system) propagates upwind to the E-ESE. The system has
    a history of producing very heavy rainfall (hourly rainfall as
    high as 2-3" with training/repeating segments), and some overlap
    with already hard hit areas is possible along the southwest flank
    (as has been consistently depicted by the experimental WoFS, still
    indicating the potential for hourly 2-3" totals near the Red River
    of the South). The mesoscale environment along and ahead of the
    convective system is characterized by MLCAPE of 1750-3500 J/kg
    (highest along and out ahead of the southwest flank), PWATs of
    1.7-2.0 inches (near the daily max moving average and record daily
    levels, per FWD and LZK sounding climatology), and tremendous deep
    layer (0-6 km) shear of 55-65 kts. Strong low-level moisture
    transport is being appropriately offset by divergence aloft
    (evident via GOES-East water vapor imagery, as the area remains
    ideally wedged between a semi-phased jet stream with subtropical
    jet along and south, and polar jet along and north). While CAMs
    have struggled with the rapid evolution of convection in this
    highly dynamic environment, observational trends (and most
    helpfully the rapidly updating experimental WoFS system) suggest
    that additional localized 3-5" totals are likely over the next few
    hours. Scattered to numerous instances of flash flooding are
    likely, and may be locally significant and life threatening (given
    3-hr Flash Flood Guidance as low as 1.5-2.0" and prior high totals
    partially overlapping the MPD).

    Areas affected...Central and Southern MO...Central and Southern IL

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding likely

    Valid 200205Z - 200705Z

    SUMMARY...Increasing coverage of showers and thunderstorms with
    high rainfall rates along with areas of cell-training will likely
    result in scattered to numerous areas of flash flooding overnight.
    Locally significant and life-threatening urban flash flooding
    impacts will be possible.

    DISCUSSION...A well-organized band of heavy showers and
    thunderstorms with very cold convective tops continues to
    generally expand in coverage across central and southern MO with
    additional cells seen in radar imagery beginning to develop also
    farther east across eastern MO and small portions of western IL.

    All of this continues to evolve as a very strong warm-air
    advection pattern advances across the middle MS Valley and into
    the lower OH Valley with enhanced moisture and instability
    transport seen focusing up along and over a warm front. MLCAPE
    values are as high as 2000 to 3000 J/kg from central and southern
    MO through southern IL involving the warm sector, and the
    environment is very moist and strongly sheared with PWs of 1.6 to
    1.8+ inches and effective bulk shear values of 50+ kts. As a
    result, the convective mode is inclusive of supercell
    thunderstorms, and the latest radar shows a number of embedded
    supercells within the broader axis of convection.

    Over the next several hours, areas of significant cell-training
    will be a concern across areas of southern and eastern MO and into
    southern IL where radar trends along with recent hires model
    guidance supports the convection becoming increasingly aligned
    with the deeper layer southwesterly flow across the region.

    The latest HRRR, RRFS and experimental WoFS guidance all support
    high rainfall rate potential with the evolution of the supercell
    thunderstorm activity over the next few hours with rainfall rates
    reaching as high as 2.5 inches/hour, and this is certainly
    supported by the highly favorable thermodynamic and kinematic
    environment that is in place.

    Cell-training will likely favor some storm totals of 3 to 5 inches
    with isolated heavier totals to 6+ inches possible. This will
    likely result in scattered to numerous areas of flash flooding
    which will include the potential for significant and
    life-threatening urban flash flooding impacts.
