Subj : HVYRAIN: Excessive Rainfall Discussion To : wx-storm@lists.illinois.edu From : COD Weather Processor Date : Thu Sep 14 2023 08:20:17 FOUS30 KWBC 140820 QPFERD Excessive Rainfall Discussion NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD 419 AM EDT Thu Sep 14 2023 Day 1 Valid 12Z Thu Sep 14 2023 - 12Z Fri Sep 15 2023 ....THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF EXCESSIVE RAINFALL OVER PORTIONS OF NORTH CENTRAL COLORADO AND WEST CENTRAL TEXAS... ....Great Basin into the Central Rockies and Central High Plains... Height falls expected to move west to east day 1 from the Great Basin into the Central Rockies and Central High Plains region.=20 This will support a fairly broad region of scattered convection day 1 in what will be a region of above average PW values, 1 to 2+ standard deviations above the mean. A small slight risk area was added across north central Colorado from approximately Colorado Springs, northward through Denver, Boulder and into Ft Collins.=20 Convection may maximize in this region late Thursday afternoon into Thursday evening as front drops south into northeast Colorado and the above mentioned height falls push east across northern Colorado and enhance upper difluence. The slight risk area fits where HREF neighborhood probabilities are high, 70-90%+ for 1"+ amounts, high also for 2"+ amounts 40-60%, albeit over a smaller region closer to Denver. This region has seen above average precip over the past week, resulting in lower ffg values through the slight risk area. The previous marginal risk area that extended westward into western Colorado and southern Utah was expanded farther west into northern Arizona and southern Nevada where locally heavy rainfall amounts are possible in the above mentioned high PW axis/upper trof axis with embedded shortwaves.=20 HREF neighborhood probabilities, while very splotchy in appearance, do show fairly high probabilities in spots for 1"+ amounts for the marginal risk area from western Colorado into southern Utah, southern Nevada and northern Arizona. ....Southern Plains... A surface frontal boundary expected to remain stationary day 1 from Southwest Texas, eastward into south central Texas and along the Gulf Coast. Strengthening southerly inflow into this front should support increasing convection to the north of this boundary prior to 1200 UTC Thursday, with this potential organized convection then pushing downstream early day 1 from across portions of central to eastern Texas. Much of this region has been dry over the past few weeks, resulting into fairly high ffg values. The one exception is over portions of south central Texas in the vicinity of WFO SJT. A slight risk area was denoted over northern WFO SJT and southwest WFO FWD where heavy rains early day 1 may overlap the lower ffg values. In the slight risk area, HREF neighborhood probabilities are high for 1 and 2"+ amounts, 50-80 and 40-60% respectively, with hourly rainfall totals of 1-2" possible.=20 Oravec Day 2 The Day 2 outlook will be updated by 0830Z. Day 3 The Day 3 outlook will be updated by 0830Z.
