Subj : HVYRAIN: Excessive Rainfall Discussion To : wx-storm@lists.illinois.edu From : COD Weather Processor Date : Wed Mar 13 2024 08:00:31 FOUS30 KWBC 130800 QPFERD Excessive Rainfall Discussion NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD 359 AM EDT Wed Mar 13 2024 Day 1 Valid 12Z Wed Mar 13 2024 - 12Z Thu Mar 14 2024 ....THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF EXCESSIVE RAINFALL ACROSS PORTIONS OF THE CENTRAL PLAINS...LOWER MISSOURI VALLEY AND MID-MISSISSIPPI VALLEY... A stationary frontal boundary is expected to drape southwest to northeast from eastern portions of the Central Plains into the Lower Missouri Valley and Mid Mississippi Valley regions. The low level southerly flow is expected to re-strengthen into this front late Wednesday into Wednesday night/early Thursday, with 850-700mb mb moisture flux anomalies increasing to 1 to 2 standard deviations above the mean by early Thursday morning. This will support potential for an increasing area of organized overrunning convection along and to the north of this front, with potential for localized areas of training or more than one batch of convection moving over the same area. The marginal risk area fits well with where the HREF neighborhood probabilities are high for 1"+ totals day 1 from northeast Kansas/southeast Nebraska, across northern Missouri, southern Iowa and northwest Illinois.=20 While the HREF 1"+ probabilities are high over a large area, the EAS probabilities are showing a much smaller area of probabilities of over 40% along the Iowa/Missouri border area, suggesting poor hi res model overlap of 1"+ areas. 2"+ HREF neighborhood probabilities are showing a very small area of high probabilities over the Iowa/Missouri border area, and low EAS probabilities for 2"+ amounts. Hourly probabilities for 1"+ totals during the 0000 to 1200 UTC period are generally less than 20%. At the moment, the risk level is kept at marginal with hourly FFG values mostly 1.5" and greater. Changes to the previous outlook were to elongate it approximately 100-120 nm to the east and west and to narrow it on the north end by about 60 nm. Oravec Day 2 The Day 2 outlook will be updated by 0830Z. Day 3 The Day 3 outlook will be updated by 0830Z.
