DISCUSSION...Composite image of area 88D reflectivites from early this evening showed shower and thunderstormn activity growing in areal coverage with embedded heavy rainfall already moving through portions of the urbanized Dallas-Ft Worth metropolitan area.=20 Given the approach of a trough in the southern stream along with a surface cold front...the trend for increasing coverage and rainfall intensity is expected to continue through at least 0630Z leading to increased risk of flash flooding. Recent HRRR runs and the 18z HREF are supportive of increasing coverage of showers and thunderstorms overnight as low level flow becomes southerly in the 20 to 35 kt range and begins to draw moisture northward from the Gulf. However...the models have already been proven to be too slow to develop heavy rainfall rates. Rainfall rates from the most active convection should generally be in the 1 to 1.5 inch range although isolated 2 inch per hour rates can not be entirely ruled out with some potential for 2 to 4 inches possible. Concern for flash flooding is greatest in urban areas and where storms have a chance to train...with flooding more in low lying areas in more rural areas.
