Subj : HVYRAIN: Excessive Rainfall Discussion To : wx-storm@lists.illinois.edu From : COD Weather Processor Date : Mon Dec 11 2023 08:10:58 FOUS30 KWBC 110809 QPFERD Excessive Rainfall Discussion NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD 308 AM EST Mon Dec 11 2023 Day 1 Valid 12Z Mon Dec 11 2023 - 12Z Tue Dec 12 2023 ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF EXCESSIVE RAINFALL ACROSS DOWNEAST MAINE... Surface low across New England will continue to push northeast while intensifying steadily through its life cycle. A strong LLJ on the eastern flank of the surface reflection will maintain a steady stream of deep layer moisture into portions of ME, especially for locations east of the I-95 corridor from Bangor on north and east. Models have shifted the heaviest rainfall of the period from previous forecasts as the surface low and attendant frontal boundary have translated further eastward over the past succession of model runs. This places the heaviest precip over mainly Downeast ME where some minor snowpack coupled with rainfall over the past 12-18 hours will exacerbate the flooding potential within the confines of the areas mentioned above. The limiting factor in higher risk potential will be the lack of rates due to limited convective development, as well as forward propagation of the precip field as it comes through later this morning, exiting by the afternoon hours. 00z HREF neighborhood probabilities for at least 1"/3-hrs is pretty high (70-90%) encompassing the outlined area. That's pretty much where the potential ends as the 2"/3-hrs probabilities dwindle to a lowly 10%. If the pattern didn't yield appreciable rainfall prior to this period, this would likely be a MRGL, but to maintain some continuity from previous forecast issuance with the pattern still producing heavy rainfall, have kept the SLGT but brought in the bounds of both it and the MRGL risk area to adjust for the latest trends. Flash flooding concerns will remain localized. Kleebauer Day 2 The Day 2 outlook will be updated by 0830Z. Day 3 The Day 3 outlook will be updated by 0830Z.
