Areas of flash flooding are possible through the night. Discussion...Scattered showers and thunderstorms continue to migrate northeastward at around 15-25 mph on the southeastern periphery of a mid/upper low centered over Kentucky. The cells/clusters were located in a moderately buoyant, moist environment characterized by 1000-1500 J/kg MLCAPE and 1.5 inch PW values, supporting occasionally heavy rain rates. Additionally, a recent uptick in convective coverage has been noted, which can likely be attributed to a mid-level vorticity maximum approaching the region from Middle Tennessee. Convection was loosely organized, but occasionally oriented favorably to southwesterly flow aloft to promote occasional/localized training and spots of rain rates to around 2 inches/hr (as recently observed near Anderson, SC).=20 Models/observations suggest that these ongoing convective trends will continue through the early overnight hours. In fact, HRRR/HREF/Nam3 all support an uptick in convective coverage an intensity occurring across western North Carolina and vicinity through 03Z. These storms will occur over areas of FFGs thresholds that are hovering around the 1-2 inch/hr range in most areas (locally higher). The expectation is that FFGs will likely be exceeded on at least a localized basis through the night - especially where more persistent and/or training convection can materialize.
