Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible Valid 080555Z - 081145Z SUMMARY...Favorable environment for training thunderstorms in vicinity of Florida Keys. While hard to hit, solid potential for 2-3"/hr rates and spots of 4-6" totals. If intersecting, accompanying rapid inundation flooding is considered possible through morning. DISCUSSION...Surface and remote sensing suite depicts a developing surface low to the NW of Grand Bahama westerly winds pressing the front off southern Florida, before the front orients flat east to west across the Florida Bay before angling northwest along the coast to a shearing out and retrograding low near 25.6N 83.6W.=20 VWP from BYX and AMX depict this stretching axis across the southern peninsula with unidirectional deep layer flow supporting a WSW to ENE training axis across the area of concern. GOES-E SWIR and RAP winds suggest broader but confluent warm advective low level flow regime along the spine of the Keys into Florida Bay with ample deep layer moisture AoA 2.5" with ample low level profile to support narrow skinny profile with solid unstable air given values of 2000-2500 J/kg. As such the strong low level convergence is supporting bands of developing CBs from upstream of Dry Tortugas through the area before strongest convergence resides just southwest of the base of the frontal zone where some sfc southwesterly flow is at or about 15-20kts supports stronger moisture flux convergence.=20=20 The placement of features: isallobaric response to the growing complex in the eastern Florida Straits, retrograding low will support continual convergence upstream redevelopment and training profile to allow for thunderstorms to track through the Keys into far southern Florida for the next few hours. Given ample moisture flux, rates of 2-3"/hr are possible per Hi-Res CAMs. Solid probability from 00z HREF suggest 3-5" suggest the training cells have sufficient proximity to land that any intersection may result in localized totals in short enough duration to allow for rapid inundation/urban style flooding.=20 Gallina ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.wpc.ncep.noaa.gov__;!!= DZ3fjg!9KEv30E6oKWRUEGlbTyMneIR31mCoNLL99BX_pk2BEo6xgwVKx7J-M4I1KiHtNR3L3tZ= HQo-fHdrInhoUVRv8wYDH7o$ for graphic product...
