Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding likely Valid 230120Z - 230600Z SUMMARY...A few more hours of slow/stationary clusters of efficient rainfall with rates of 2-3"/hr and localized spots of add'l 4+" will continue localized flash flooding threat.=20 DISCUSSION...As MPD 696 expires in a few minutes, the set-up for intense heavy rainfall continues with the ongoing clusters and potentially some upstream Tcu noted in 3.9um SWIR. Currently, -65C topped clusters exist near Pitt/Beaufort county, NC; Sampson/Duplin county, NC and Florence/Sumter counties, SC; with the TCu across Lexington/Richmond counties, SC. Clusters remain along the confluence axis between Gulf and Atlantic streams and deep layer q-axis with 2.25-2.5" of TPW. Additionally, 500-1000 thickness pattern continues to support zero to slightly upwind propagation vectors as inflow winds slacken from 15 to 10 kts at the boundary layer. Instability has begun to increase along the coast with temps still in the low 80s and Tds in the upper 70s supporting 2000-2500 J/kg for any updrafts that can maintain in the weakening flow. RADAR rates of 2-3" have been observed and confirmed with backyard observations south of Florence and near Pitt county with 5-6" and 4-5", respectively. While sandy soils can absorb much of this in the coastal Plain, MRMS Flash still indicate pockets of 200-400 cfs/sq.mi, generally indicative of at least low end flash flooding.=20 Hi-res CAMs are suggestive that convergence weakens at or just after 05z, but those generally have a quick bias to weaken. As such, additional 3-5" is possible which may result in some of those locations to near 6-8"+ further increasing flash flooding likelihood.
