Subj : HVYRAIN: Excessive Rainfall Discussion To : wx-storm@lists.illinois.edu From : COD Weather Processor Date : Wed Mar 22 2023 08:05:40 FOUS30 KWBC 220805 QPFERD Excessive Rainfall Discussion NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD 404 AM EDT Wed Mar 22 2023 Day 1 Valid 12Z Wed Mar 22 2023 - 12Z Thu Mar 23 2023 ....THERE IS A MARGINAL FOR EXCESSIVE RAINFALL ACROSS SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA AND CENTRAL ARIZONA... Lingering rains from a departing AR will continue as the upper trough tracks from southern California into the Desert Southwest. New accumulations of 1 to 2 inches (mainly focused in/near the terrain) that fall on areas that are already hydrologically sensitive to additional precipitation will keep the potential for excessive rainfall going over portions of southern California and central Arizona. Campbell Day 2 Valid 12Z Thu Mar 23 2023 - 12Z Fri Mar 24 2023 ....THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK FOR EXCESSIVE RAINFALL FROM THE SOUTHERN PLAINS TO THE OHIO VALLEY... A steady stream of Gulf of Mexico moisture will surge northward along a frontal boundary spanning from the Great Lakes region southwest to New Mexico and produce widespread rain from the Southern Plains to the Ohio Valley. Low level flow transporting PW values of 1.25 (+2 std dev) into the heart of the nation will be nearly parallel to the frontal boundary. A southwest to northeast orientated swath of QPF is expected to setup from Texas to Pennsylvania with some of the highest amounts aligning in a narrow band from eastern Oklahoma to Indiana. The 3-hr FFGs across the general area are 1.5/2 inches with areal averages of 1 to 3+ inches forecast. There were already Slight and Marginal Risks for excessive rainfall in effect. Given the latest trends and WPC QPF, the Marginal Risk and Slight Risk areas were expanded south and west across parts of Oklahoma, Texas and Louisiana. The Marginal Risk was expanded a few counties southward from eastern Kentucky to West Virginia. The eastern bounds of the Slight Risk was narrowed a bit to be near/south of I-70 in Indiana and Ohio.
