Southern MD...D.C...and Northern VA... Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible Valid 291920Z - 300000Z SUMMARY...Narrow band of training warm cloud showers/thunderstorms may track through populated areas with streaks of 2-3" totals posing instances of localized flooding. DISCUSSION...Regional RADAR and GOES-E Visible imagery shows a line of shallow convection stretching from S Delaware across to central MD toward DC. RAP meso-scale analysis denotes a pocket of enhanced deep layer moisture of 1.5" Total PWat including a band of mi-60s to even low 70s Tds tracking along a narrow but well defined boundary. This boundary appears to extend through 700mb with solid confluent 15-20kt flow. Satellite trends support a tightening of the cloud deck from the north-northeast indicative of a weak back-door boundary to enhance moisture flux/confluence. Even with cloud cover, weak southerly flow is advecting areas of enhanced instability with a small reservoir of 2000-2500 J/kg of SBCAPE across the southern Delmarva into southern MD and the northern Necks of VA. Additional banding features appear to be developing in the core of this instability axis and with a similar steering flow regime may allow for training further south into northern VA as well.=20 Banding through Southern Anne Arundel county has displayed 1.5"+/hr rates supported by backyard weather observations. Length of the band and slow southward drift with the influence of the back-door flow, may allow for 1-3 hours, with streaks of 2-3" possible. This is near FFG values in the rural areas, but given proximity to urban settings, particularly DC, scattered flooding may become a concern over the next 3-5 hours.
