Subj : HVYRAIN: Excessive Rainfall Discussion To : wx-storm@lists.illinois.edu From : COD Weather Processor Date : Sat Dec 10 2022 08:19:37 FOUS30 KWBC 100819 QPFERD Excessive Rainfall Discussion NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD 318 AM EST Sat Dec 10 2022 Day 1 Valid 12Z Sat Dec 10 2022 - 12Z Sun Dec 11 2022 ....THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF EXCESSIVE RAINFALL ALONG THE COASTAL RANGES OF CENTRAL CALIFORNIA TO THE WESTERN TRANSVERSE RANGE... ....Northern to Central California Coast, western Transverse Range... An atmospheric river event will be sinking southeastward down the northern to central California coast day 1 on the southeast side of the amplifying mid to upper level trof off the Pac NW coast. A well defined band of heavy precip likely to sink southeastward along and ahead of the associated cold front in the region of strong south southwesterly low level flow, followed by more showery conditions post frontal. 850-700 mb moisture flux anomalies in this onshore flow axis expected to remain in the 3 to 4+ standard deviations above the mean level through day 1. While the front and associated strong low level moisture flux axis will be pressing fairly quickly southeastward, there will be a period of heavy rains with model consensus for heavy precip totals along the northern to central California coast to the western portion of the Transverse Range. The slight risk area was drawn where HREF neighborhood probabilities were high...50-90%...for 3"+ totals this period. With respect to changes from the previous issuance, the slight risk was extended about 80 miles farther to the north to include the higher terrain west of San Jose, which is covered by the above mentioned higher HREF probabilities. Model consensus is for 2 to 4" in the slight risk area, with max totals 5 to 7" in the coastal range from Monterey south to near San Luis Obispo.=20 Hourly rainfall rates likely in the .50"+ range with HREF probabilities high in the anomalous moisture flux axis...60-90%...but drop off significantly for 1"+ totals, illustrating the hourly precip limits due to the fairly quick southeastward push.=20 ....Northeast Texas into southern Arkansas... The latest model guidance continues to show potential for a period of training of convection in west southwest to east northeasterly direction day 1 along and ahead of a surface cold front pressing southward across North TX/southern AR at the beginning of the day 1 period. There has been a southward push in the model qpf axes from the previous model runs, resulting in the previous marginal risk area centered from southeast OK/far northeast TX into central OK being relocated approximately 70 miles to the south for the upcoming day 1 period. This marginal risk area lines up well with where the latest HREF neighborhood probabilities are high for 1" and 2"+ totals this period, 90%+ and 40-80% respectively. In areas of training, isolated runoff issues are possible. Oravec=20 Day 2 The Day 2 outlook will be updated by 0830Z. Day 3 The Day 3 outlook will be updated by 0830Z.
