....THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF EXCESSIVE RAINFALL OVER PORTIONS OF
THE GREAT BASIN, NEW MEXICO AND FAR WEST TEXAS, UPPER MIDWEST, AND
FLORIDA...

....Great Basin/Nevada...

A deep upper-trough will transport a plume of moisture (1-2 PWAT
stndv) into the West today. A cold front associated with a
deepening low pressure system will act as a focus for convection
over the Great Basin, in particular. There's been some
consolidation and better agreement between the hi-res and global
guidance with respect to the location of the axis of heaviest
precipitation. Some parts of central Nevada, southeastern Oregon
and southwestern Idaho could see rainfall rates around 0.25"/hr
with isolated higher amounts. Ample forcing over elevated terrain
could lead to more efficient/enhanced rain rates. Between 1-3" of
rainfall is expected through tonight.

....New Mexico/west Texas...

Convection supported by a deep upper trough to the West and
leading shortwave energy will support another localized flash
flood threat over parts of eastern New Mexico and into west Texas.
Decent instability (1000J/kg+), modest moisture flux and a
favorable low level jet may produce bursts of heavy rainfall over
our marginal risk area. Urban areas and dry washes are most
vulnerable of flash flooding.

....Upper Midwest...

An embedded shortwave within an omega ridge will continue driving
convection through this afternoon. The heaviest rainfall may
already be occurring over parts of eastern Minnesota and
northwestern Wisconsin. That being said, impressive forcing,
instability (1000J/Kg+) and moisture (2-3 PWAT stndv) could still
generate excessive rainfall leading to isolated instances of flash
flooding.

....Florida...

A slow moving shortwave trough will allow for the continuation of
scattered to isolated thunderstorms across the central/southern
peninsula today. Some cells may produce localized heavy rainfall
within the marginal risk area. Antecedent conditions will also
contribute to the sensitivity to any isolated heavy rainfall
threats.
