Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding likely

Valid 091838Z - 100030Z

SUMMARY...Impressive mid-summer synoptic scale set-up for
significant flooding is in place across northern portions of the
Mid-Atlantic region.  Repeated rounds of backbuilding and training
convective cells will likely lead to additional instances of
flooding, with the potential for major flash flooding.

DISCUSSION...Regional Doppler radars along with recent infrared
satellite scans are depicting a steady increase in slow moving
convection in the general vicinity of a stalled frontal boundary.=20
The overall environment is quite conducive for additional heavy
rainfall in the outlook area with PWs approaching 2 inches per
recent SPC mesoanalysis, and mixed layer CAPE generally on the
order of 1500-2000 J/kg, mainly in response to anomalous low-mid
70s surface dewpoints advecting northward into the region.  The
surface to 850 mb flow is generally oriented orthogonal to the
stalled front, which is acting as a corridor of enhanced ascent
with repeated rounds of back-building cells with high rainfall
rates exceeding 1 inch in 20 minutes in some instances.  The upper
level environment is also quite conducive for deep layer ascent
with strong right entrance jet dynamics and resulting divergence
at 300 mb.=20

The latest CAM guidance suite is depicting the potential for
patchy 3 to 5 inch QPF maxima through 8 pm tonight.  The highest
rainfall rates are likely to be associated with backbuilding cells
close to the front where 2-3 inches may fall within an hour, with
the greatest prospects for this generally between the greater
Baltimore metro area northeastward to White Plains, New York,
where HREF neighborhood probabilities of 3-hourly flash flood
guidance exceedance are up to 50%.  It is also important to note
that parts of this region have experienced over 300% of normal
rainfall over the past week, and part of the Delaware River Valley
had excessive rainfall yesterday along with parts of interior
eastern Pennsylvania.  Flash flooding is considered likely owing
to both the antecedent conditions and the impressive
meteorological environment.
