Subj : HVYRAIN: Excessive Rainfall Discussion To : wx-storm@lists.illinois.edu From : COD Weather Processor Date : Mon Jan 30 2023 00:29:36 FOUS30 KWBC 300029 QPFERD Excessive Rainfall Discussion NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD 728 PM EST Sun Jan 29 2023 Day 1 Valid 16Z Sun Jan 29 2023 - 12Z Mon Jan 30 2023 ....THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF EXCESSIVE RAINFALL FOR PORTIONS OF THE SOUTHEAST AND CENTRAL GULF COAST... Broad shield of overrunning precipitation over a stationary boundary draped along the Gulf Coast ahead of shortwave energy moving within the southwesterly flow aloft will continue to bring northeastward anomalously high moisture across the region. The latest precipitable water values per blended TPW products show values in excess of 1.5" with isolated readings near 1.75", which is near 2.5 standard deviations above normal for this time of year. The recent runs of the HRRR and 18Z HREF continue to show that a stripe of heavier rainfall is expected through tonight across parts of southern Alabama and southwest Georgia where the signal for isolated 3" totals looks favorable (HREF probs for 6-hr QPF exceeding 3" is 40-60 percent) and hourly totals between 1-2" are possible. See MPD #053 that is valid through 05Z for more details. Further to the west across parts of LA and MS, convection is expected to be more isolated/scattered in nature but also near where earlier rainfall produced isolated 3-4" totals and the soils are a bit more sensitive to the additional rainfall. Until the shortwave energy over Louisiana lifts northeast through 06-09Z, there should be a continued redevelopment of showers and thunderstorms over the boundary, keeping the flash flood risk in place. The main limiting factor for intense rain rates is the lack of deep instability, which is only found near/south of the frontal boundary. This should keep the flash flood threat more isolated/scattered in nature. For the Excessive Rainfall Outlook, minor adjustments were made based on the latest HRRR and 18Z HREF trends Taylor Day 2 Valid 12Z Mon Jan 30 2023 - 12Z Tue Jan 31 2023 The probability of rainfall exceeding flash flood guidance is less than 5 percent. Hurley Day 3 Valid 12Z Tue Jan 31 2023 - 12Z Wed Feb 01 2023 The probability of rainfall exceeding flash flood guidance is less than 5 percent.
