A localized threat for some flooding will be possible. DISCUSSION...A well-organized convective complex continues to advance east-northeast across the northern Gulf of Mexico in association with a compact mid-level shortwave trough and area of low pressure. This energy will be crossing areas of the FL Panhandle and Big Bend region over the next few hours and should allow for heavy showers and thunderstorms to overspread the area. Radar imagery and shows a somewhat broken, but relatively linear axis of heavier convective rainfall rates west of Panama City advancing inland within the broader convective mass and associated heavy rain area offshore. The latest RAP 3-hourly instability differentials support the idea of relatively strong convective elements translating off to the northeast into far southwest GA also over the next few hours. Overall, the 12Z NAM-Conest seems to have a fairly decent handle of the ongoing convection over the Gulf of Mexico (albeit perhaps a little slow), but the NAM-Conest does support some 1 to 2 inch/hour rainfall rates accompanying the stronger convection with some resulting 2 to 4 inch rainfall totals inclusive of at least some brief training cell potential as well going through the afternoon. The latest radar and satellite trends tend to support this. The antecedent conditions across especially areas of the FL Panhandle are on the moist side based off the latest NASA SPoRT moisture data with also locally high streamflows noted per USGS observations. Consequently, the additional rains this afternoon may pose a localized concern for some runoff problems and flooding.
