Maintained the Marginal risk area that was introduced on Thursday over portions of northeast Florida...and expanded the area northeastward along the Georgia coast line. 00Z runs of the HREF increased the neighborhood probabilities of 1 to 2 inch per hour rates in response to a frontal boundary..and associated convection...being a bit closer to the coast than shown by earlier runs.=20=20 ....Southwest US... Moisture feeding northward into the Southwest US will begin to be channeled into a more narrow corridor disrupted today...leading to a somewhat smaller coverage of late day and evening convection capable of producing heavy rainfall. A secondary focus across the=20 terrain in Southeast AZ over into the NM Bootheel will also be an=20 area that could see some scattered heavy rain signals with some=20 support from global deterministic and ensemble members. Current QPF signal is modest with areal averages and the setup is more benign=20 in the grand scheme, especially considering the previous active=20 periods. Bann Day 2 Valid 12Z Sat Aug 24 2024 - 12Z Sun Aug 25 2024 ....THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF EXCESSIVE RAINFALL ACROSS PORTIONS OF THE SOUTHWEST/FOUR CORNERS AND SOUTH FLORIDA... ....Southwest and Four Corners... Lingering moisture and relative instability coupled with progressive shortwaves cutting through the Interior Mountain West will set up another round of isolated convection during the=20 afternoon and early evening hours on Saturday before a gradual=20 dissipation with the loss of diurnal heating. Pockets of heavy=20 rainfall are still forecast across a similar corridor as on Day 1,=20 so there is some concern that the antecedent conditions could be=20 favorable for greater impacts pending what occurs leading up to the start of the forecast period on Saturday morning. Overall ensemble QPF footprint still indicates a max of 1-2", at best, within the=20 strongest cores. This is still enough for flash flooding within=20 complex terrain and especially around any burn scars. The previous=20 MRGL risk was relatively unchanged. ....South Florida.. Incoming moisture flux with roots from the Caribbean will make headway into South Florida on Saturday with area precipitable water=20=20 anomalies approaching 2 deviations above normal. The increasing moisture will be in proximity to a quasi-stationary front to the=20 north...with a sharp delineation point of where the moisture=20 pooling will reside. A Marginal risk area was maintained across=20 the Southern FL Peninsula.=20 Bann Day 3 Valid 12Z Sun Aug 25 2024 - 12Z Mon Aug 26 2024 ....THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF EXCESSIVE RAINFALL ACROSS PORTIONS OF THE SOUTHWEST/FOUR CORNERS AND SOUTH FLORIDA... As an upper high over the Southern Plains begins to move eastward and away from the Southwest...another push of moisture and shortwave energy will move northward. This will sett up another=20 round of isolated to widely scattered thunderstorms capable of=20 producing flash flooding or run off problems within complex=20 terrain and especially around any burn scars. Given the fetch of moisture from the southeast...the areal coverage was expanded somewhat compared with the size of the Marginal risk area on Dy 2.
