Subj : HVYRAIN: Excessive Rainfall Discussion To : wx-storm@lists.illinois.edu From : COD Weather Processor Date : Fri Feb 02 2024 07:54:02 FOUS30 KWBC 020753 QPFERD Excessive Rainfall Discussion NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD 253 AM EST Fri Feb 02 2024 Day 1 Valid 12Z Fri Feb 02 2024 - 12Z Sat Feb 03 2024 ....THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF EXCESSIVE RAINFALL ACROSS EASTERN PORTIONS OF THE SOUTHERN PLAINS TO THE MIDDLE AND UPPER TEXAS COAST... The latest model guidance remains consistent with the increasing shower/thunderstorm activity across the Southern Plains Friday afternoon/evening as strong height falls push through the Southwest and into the Southern High Plains. PW values expected to continue to increase day 1 ahead of these height falls as low level southerly flow strengthens off the western Gulf and spreads northward into the Southern Plains. The well defined upper difluence ahead of these height falls and the axis of increasing PW values will support potential for areas of heavy rains. There continues to be a lot of spread with where the heaviest totals will occur. This is illustrated well with the HREF neighborhood probabilities showing a large area of high probabilities for 1"+ totals across central to eastern Texas, northward into portions of southeast to western Oklahoma and south central Kansas. However, the EAS probabilities for 1"+ amounts day 1 are much lower indicating poor overlap in the latest hi res models. The previous marginal risk area still fits the geographical spread in the latest guidance, leading to no changes at the moment in the marginal risk area. No changes also to the risk level given the current spread in qpf details and consensus that any precip will be generally to the northwest of where the heaviest amounts have occurred over the past few weeks.
