Very slow storm motions (5-10 kts) combined with 2-3"/hr rainfall rates in the most intense cells along the front will support some flash flooding this afternoon. Discussion...Radar and IR imagery depict a focused corridor of rapid thunderstorm development along a weak cold front which has stalled across the Southeast. The most intense of these cells were nearly stationary halfway between a KBMX to KFFC line, with dual-pol and MRMS hourly rainfall estimates highlighting 2-2.5"/hr rainfall rates with this activity. The mesoscale environment in the vicinity of the front remains very conducive for heavy rainfall, with 2.2-2.4" PWATs, 3000-4000 J/kg MUCAPE, and 5-10 kts of southwesterly 850-300 mb mean flow noted per recent GPS and mesoanalysis trends. With the front forecast to remain stalled and steering flow parallel to the boundary, these slow moving and training cells will continue through the afternoon. The 12z HREF maintains high (50-60%) probabilities of rainfall exceeding 3 inches along the front through 0Z tonight, with individual members showing 5-6". Although soil saturation percentiles are near normal and FFGs are high across the region, a few instances of flash flooding appear possible given the overall efficiency and prolonged residence times of these cells.
