Subj : HVYRAIN: Excessive Rainfall Discussion To : wx-storm@lists.illinois.edu From : COD Weather Processor Date : Sun Feb 12 2023 08:35:21 FOUS30 KWBC 120835 QPFERD Excessive Rainfall Discussion NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD 334 AM EST Sun Feb 12 2023 Day 1 Valid 12Z Sun Feb 12 2023 - 12Z Mon Feb 13 2023 ....THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK FOR EXCESSIVE RAINFALL ACROSS A SMALL PORTION OF FAR SOUTHEASTERN VIRGINIA INTO EASTERN NORTH CAROLINA... Maintained the Marginal Risk area in place for a small portion of southeast Virginia and adjacent North Carolina as a broad shield of rain overspreads the area despite the diminishing window of opportunity. The 12/00Z run of the GEFS still shows precipitable water values in excess of 1.25 inches during the morning which is nearing the 90th climatological percentile and moisture flux values over 2 standard deviations above climatology which does not seem totally unreasonable given the upper level support provided by increasing difluence. The problem is that these conditions get ushered out to sea very quickly without a prolonged period of moderate to heavy rainfall rates. In addition..the coastal swamp and sandy soils may mitigate the potential for excessive rainfall. However...any rainfall this morning will be in addition to what fell prior to 12Z and the combined amounts may still result in localized problems with run-off or ponding in areas of poor drainage before the entire area of rain heads out to sea by late morning or early afternoon.
