A significant instance or two of flash flooding is possible. Discussion...Highly efficient bands of showers and thunderstorms are proving to be rather persistent late tonight across portions of western PA, northern NJ, southern NY, and western CT. These storms have been capable of 1-2"/hr rates, and the training nature of these bands are leading to increased concerns for continued flash flooding over the next few hours. The mesoscale enviornment is characterized by ML CAPE of 750-1250 J/kg, precipitable water values of 1.4-1.7 inches (between the 75th and 90th percentile, per OKX sounding climatology), and effective bulk shear of 30-40 kts. A shortwave trough just upstream (traversing western PA) may provide additional DPVA and diffluence aloft via the right-entrance region of a 90 kt jet streak (250 mb), despite the 00z HREF insistence that convection should be disipatting by now. Increasing convective inhibition and overturning of the atmosphere should result in the eventual dissipation of convection by 08z or so, but not before an additional 2-4" of rainfall over or near areas that have already seen 1-3" of rainfall over the past 3 hours. For this reason, additional localized instances of flash flooding are considered likely, and a significant instance or two of flash flooding are possible.
