Subj : HVYRAIN: Excessive Rainfall Discussion To : wx-storm@lists.illinois.edu From : COD Weather Processor Date : Wed Apr 19 2023 07:44:12 FOUS30 KWBC 190744 QPFERD Excessive Rainfall Discussion NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD 342 AM EDT Wed Apr 19 2023 Day 1 Valid 01Z Wed Apr 19 2023 - 12Z Wed Apr 19 2023 ....THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK FOR EXCESSIVE RAINFALL FROM THE CENTRAL PLAINS TO THE UPPER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY... Elevated convection developed overnight and is persisting this morning across the eastern Dakotas, Iowa and Minnesota where there was decent instability rooted above a strong low level inversion, a mid level shortwave approaching the area, and strong upper level diffluence. Much of this region has wet antecedent conditions, as much as 400 to 600% of normal the past week. Additional showers and thunderstorms are ahead the cold front tracking through eastern portions of the Central Plains before expanding southwest to northeast through the night from eastern Kansas through Wisconsin. Some the stronger instability and lift will be nosing into Kansas and Missouri which favors higher QPF to setup from eastern Kansas through southern Iowa. There is a risk for rainfall rates over 1"/hr per the 12Z HREF. While KS will have the most instability, antecedent conditions are most favorable for flash flooding in Wisconsin due to added snowmelt from the recent winter storm over the western half of the state. Thus if FFG is able to be exceeded, we could realize some lower end flood impacts, especially over any more susceptible areas. The Marginal Risk area already in effect highlights where there is an elevated threat for excessive rainfall. Minor tweaks were made to reflect the latest trends.
