Flash flooding possible. DISCUSSION...Slow-moving storms have developed along a trough/dying front located over central Massachusetts this evening. With south to southwesterly flow advecting plentiful atmospheric moisture into southern New England, the storms are expected to maintain their intensity over the next few hours. PWATs over 2 inches and SBCAPE values around 2,000 J/kg over Massachusetts are over 2.5 sigma above normal for this time of year for PWATs and over the 90th percentile in the climatology. The storms further south into western Connecticut have also been slow moving and could pose a flash flooding threat with rates over 2 inches per hour noted by both the Boston and Upton radars. This is nearing the hourly FFG of 2-2.5 inches across Litchfield County. CAMs guidance suggests the storms currently moving over the New York City metro will overtake the storms in western Connecticut as they move towards the northeast along the trough. This should allow overall movement of the heaviest rainfall rates to begin over the next hour or 2. However, the boundary the storms across Massachusetts have formed along is very slow-moving and is not expected to move much over the next few hours. This could allow training convection to develop as noted in the 22Z HRRR.
