Additional training activity is expected into the afternoon, which will maintain a threat of flash flooding (some significant). Discussion...Radar imagery depicts a focused area of training thunderstorms along the western flank of an MCV atop the FL Panhandle. Within the main training axis southwest of of KEVX, significant rainfall has fallen over the last 6 hours with an 8.3" observation at Santa Rosa Beach (which matches MRMS Q3 6 hour estimates). This activity has since propagated slightly to the west, but currently contains rainfall rates around 2-2.25"/hr.=20 The mesoscale environment in the vicinity of the MCV is very conducive for continued efficient warm rainfall, characterized by deep saturated vertical profiles containing 2.5" PWATS, warm cloud layers of 4500 meters, and negligible CIN with 1500-3000 J/KG MLCAPE. RAP forecasts depict 5 kt Corfidi vectors oriented normal to the mean flow (10 kts) and a north-south instability gradient which suggest a very slow net westward propagation of the activity to lengthen residence times of very heavy rainfall as additional activity develops upstream to the north and west into this afternoon. Recent runs of the HRRR corroborate this idea, and suggest an additional 2-3" of rainfall is possible within the training axis, on top of what has already fallen. This is likely expected to continue a threat of additional flash flooding (some of which could be significant), especially atop more vulnerable urban areas and areas currently experiencing heavy rainfall.
