Subj : HVYRAIN: Excessive Rainfall Discussion To : wx-storm@lists.illinois.edu From : COD Weather Processor Date : Thu Mar 23 2023 07:43:59 FOUS30 KWBC 230743 QPFERD Excessive Rainfall Discussion NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD 343 AM EDT Thu Mar 23 2023 Day 1 Valid 12Z Thu Mar 23 2023 - 12Z Fri Mar 24 2023 ....THERE IS A MODERATE RISK FOR EXCESSIVE RAINFALL OVER A PORTION OF THE MID/SOUTHERN MISSISSIPPI VALLEY.. An abundant, steady stream of Gulf moisture as a deep-layer trough ejects from the Southern Rockies and results in strengthening low level flow. At about the same time, upper level divergence from an upper level jet aids in surface low pressure forming along a quasi-stationary front extending from Oklahoma northeastward into the Ohio/Tennessee Valley. Precipitable water values at or slightly greater than 1.25 inches reaches eastern Oklahoma by 23/18Z before becoming more expansive by 24 00Z, from Texas to Kentucky. Strong moisture convergence along the boundary along with support from the upper level jet will aid in the production of moderate to locally heavy rainfall, especially from eastern Oklahoma to the southern Indiana. There still potential for 1 to 2 inch/hour rain rates during the afternoon, but especially by/after 00Z. While this area is not as saturated as it was a couple of weeks ago...there is local concern given that ground conditions are still fairly moist. The Moderate and Slight Risk areas were expanded to the southwest across Oklahoma to reflect the latest trends in the guidance and WPC QPF. Campbell Day 2 The Day 2 outlook will be updated by 0830Z.
