Subj : HVYRAIN: Excessive Rainfall Discussion To : wx-storm@lists.illinois.edu From : COD Weather Processor Date : Thu Feb 16 2023 21:44:00 FOUS30 KWBC 162143 QPFERD Excessive Rainfall Discussion NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD 442 PM EST Thu Feb 16 2023 Day 1 Valid 2142Z Thu Feb 16 2023 - 12Z Fri Feb 17 2023 ....THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF EXCESSIVE RAINFALL ACROSS PORTIONS OF THE SOUTHEAST & THE SOUTHERN APPALACHIANS... There is good model agreement on the eastward push of an upper level trough from the Central to Southern Plains into the Mid to Lower MS Valley, OH Valley and TN Valley. Strong south southwesterly low level flow off the western Gulf will continue to transport much above average PW values, 2 to 3 standard deviations above the mean, northeastward ahead of the upper level trough and the associated cold front. Organized frontal and pre-frontal convection should evolve into a squall line which pushes eastward through the Lower MS Valley into the TN Valley region into Thursday evening in what will be an overall very favorable pattern for an organized convective line along and ahead of the eastward moving front, with strong frontal convergence expected in the axis of anomalous PW values and Mu-Cape values currently 2000+ J/kg near the Gulf Coast. While radar trends have allowed some of the western area of the excessive rainfall regions to be cleared, 18z HREF probabilities of 0.5"+ an hour and 3"+ in 12 hours along with radar reflectivity trends led to some southwest expansion of the Marginal and Slight Risk areas. Very low flash flood guidance values across KY and southwest WV from heavy rains earlier Thursday led to the maintenance of the Slight Risk area near the upper Ohio Valley. Roth Day 2 Valid 12Z Fri Feb 17 2023 - 12Z Sat Feb 18 2023 The probablity of rainfall exceeding flash flood guidance is less than 5 percent. Kebede Day 3 Valid 12Z Sat Feb 18 2023 - 12Z Sun Feb 19 2023 The probability of rainfall exceeding flash flood guidance is less than 5 percent.
