Subj : HVYRAIN: Excessive Rainfall Discussion To : wx-storm@lists.illinois.edu From : COD Weather Processor Date : Tue Jan 24 2023 08:26:43 FOUS30 KWBC 240826 QPFERD Excessive Rainfall Discussion NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD 325 AM EST Tue Jan 24 2023 Day 1 Valid 12Z Tue Jan 24 2023 - 12Z Wed Jan 25 2023 ....THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF EXCESSIVE RAINFALL FOR PORTIONS OF THE SOUTHERN PLAINS AND LOWER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY... A potent and fast moving upper-level low will swing through the Southern Plains and Mississippi Valley today. Strong jet dynamics should support a strong and progressive surface low pressure system propagating from southern Texas through the central Gulf Coast through early Wednesday morning. The upper trough will tap into a reservoir of Gulf moisture (PWATs between 1-2in) and send it streaming into southeastern Texas and the central Gulf Coast. A line of heavy rainfall and thunderstorms are expected to initiate somewhere in southeastern Texas and spread eastward along the Gulf coast where they will encounter some decent instability, with MUCAPE hovering between 500-1000J/Kg, along the immediate coastlines of Texas and Louisiana. A southerly low level jet at around 60kts will provide ample shearing for these fast moving storms. Rainfall rates between 0.75-1.5in/hr over saturated soils and the presence of low FFG will amplify flash flooding concerns for the area encompassed by the Slight Risk. There's potential for parts of the central Texas coast and points inland to over perform their QPF, particularly within thunderstorms, due to favorable dynamics and instability this afternoon. First Guess ERO fields and a number of local offices supported the risk areas drawn for this day 1 outlook. Kebede Day 2 The Day 2 outlook will be updated by 0830Z. Day 3 The Day 3 outlook will be updated by 0830Z.
