Subj : HVYRAIN: Excessive Rainfall Discussion To : wx-storm@lists.illinois.edu From : COD Weather Processor Date : Sun Sep 03 2023 08:14:15 FOUS30 KWBC 030814 QPFERD Excessive Rainfall Discussion NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD 413 AM EDT Sun Sep 03 2023 Day 1 Valid 12Z Sun Sep 03 2023 - 12Z Mon Sep 04 2023 ....THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF EXCESSIVE RAINFALL ACROSS MUCH OF THE GREAT BASIN AND INTERMOUNTAIN WEST... ....Great Basin to Intermountain West... An active and unsettled day is shaping up across much of the Great Basin and Intermountain West as the deep closed mid-level low currently centered over California begins to move eastward toward Nevada later today and tonight. Ahead of that feature, impressive strong forcing for ascent will be provided by a coupled jet streak over the region. Moisture anomalies remain very high, characterized by PWs 1-1.5", which is nearly 3 standard deviations above the climatological mean. The best overlap of the moisture anomalies and forcing lies across portions of central/northern Nevada northeast through southwest Montana including much of southern Idaho, northern Utah, and western Wyoming. 00Z model guidance shows favorable instability is expected to develop this afternoon, highest across portions of NV (1000+ J/kg MUCAPE) while 500-1000 J/kg is expected across southern Idaho through Utah. The Slight Risk area was largely unchanged from the previous cycle and captures the greatest HREF probabilities for 1" hourly totals (peaks at 20-25 percent this afternoon) and the highest risk of seeing 1-2" totals. Some training and repeating rounds of thunderstorms will be possible, particularly across portions of central Nevada through southeast Idaho resulting in isolated/scattered instances of flooding especially for the vulnerable areas including recent burn scar areas with a secondary area of concern possibly over southern Utah late in the period (after 06Z Monday) though confidence in higher rain rates there is lower. ....Central Gulf Coast... A stationary boundary in the vicinity interacting with a very moist airmass (PWs 2-2.25"+) may lead to additional heavy rainfall along the Gulf Coast again today, prompting localized flash flooding for the more vulnerable urban and low-lying locations. The deep moisture axis will begin to shift west with time today, pinning the best setup for localized heavy rainfall across southeast Louisiana through the far western Florida Panhandle where isolated 2" hourly totals (isolated 2-4" 24-hr totals) will be possible with any convection that develops.
