Subj : HVYRAIN: Excessive Rainfall Discussion To : wx-storm@lists.illinois.edu From : COD Weather Processor Date : Thu Sep 07 2023 07:36:29 FOUS30 KWBC 070736 QPFERD Excessive Rainfall Discussion NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD 335 AM EDT Thu Sep 07 2023 Day 1 Valid 12Z Thu Sep 07 2023 - 12Z Fri Sep 08 2023 ....THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF EXCESSIVE RAINFALL FOR PORTIONS OF THE NORTHEAST AND MID-ATLANTIC... A mid-level shortwave over Michigan this morning will lift into Ontario and weaken as its surfaced cold front continues eastward through the Upper Ohio Valley and toward the Appalachians. In addition, a separate minor vort max over WV this morning is progged to move northeastward along the Appalachian crest this afternoon. Deep SSW flow will continue to supply sufficient moisture to the region, with precipitable water values 1.50-1.75 inches (+1 to +2.5 sigma from south to north). Increased instability in afternoon heating will support scattered showers/storms over the region as MLCAPE values rise to near 2000 J/kg. FFG values are relatively lower across parts of VT, the Catskills/Southern Tier in NY and into NEPA (as well as along the Appalachians), though the entire region has seen little rainfall in the past week so much of the rain will be beneficial. 00Z HREF guidance shows neighborhood probabilities for >1"/hr rainfall up to ~50% and 2"/hr 10-25% which is close to or above the lower FFG values between NY/PA/VT and along the WV/VA border, which stands the greater risk within the Marginal area especially given the more hillier terrain. Constrained the area toward I-95 where the rain chances are lower but the flash flood risk remains non-zero. Fracasso Day 2 The Day 2 outlook will be updated by 0830Z. Day 3 The Day 3 outlook will be updated by 0830Z.
