Subj : HVYRAIN: Excessive Rainfall Discussion To : wx-storm@lists.illinois.edu From : COD Weather Processor Date : Fri Apr 14 2023 08:13:09 FOUS30 KWBC 140813 QPFERD Excessive Rainfall Discussion NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD 411 AM EDT Fri Apr 14 2023 Day 1 ....THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF EXCESSIVE RAINFALL FOR PORTIONS OF SOUTH FLORIDA & THE MID-ATLANTIC/CENTRAL APPALACHIANS... ....South Florida... Heavy rains yesterday caused some of the major roads in the Fort Lauderdale to Miami corridor to become flooded. Additional showers and thunderstorms are expected to fire up near the coast during the afternoon and evening hours, which will aggravate the already sensitive area. A Marginal Risk area was raised for the coastal/urban areas of southeast Florida. ....Mid-Atlantic and Central Appalachians... A deep mid/upper level low is expected to lift northward and weaken/open into Friday night. Moist easterly flow ahead of the advancing warm front will bring a surge of higher moisture through the region, characterized by PWs of up to 1.5 inches. With available instability (~1000 J/kg CAPE), locally intense rainfall will be possible across the Piedmont region. A secondary round of convection is possible during the afternoon/early evening associated with the main upper level shortwave moving overhead. The combination of steeper lapse rates and peak heating could bring another round of heavier showers and thunderstorms. Some of the hi-res guidance is depicting hourly rainfall of 1 to 1.5+ inches/hr across the Carolinas, as well as, eastern Kentucky, western Virginia and southern West Virginia. The 3-hr FFG are as low as 1.5 inches in the areas of higher elevation and around 2-2.5 inches elsewhere. The inherited Marginal Risk area was reshaped to trim out parts of South Carolina where the latest trends have lowered and then expanded east-west into western Kentucky, Tennessee and southern West Virginia where intense rainfall may quickly surpass local FFG and lead to isolated flooding concerns.
