While 1000-500 hPa thickness values are higher when compared to Thursday's rainfall farther south, implying slightly less atmospheric saturation, the=20 combination of 50+ kts of 850 hPa inflow into WV along with ~100=20 J/kg of CAPE and the forecast precipitable water values should be=20 sufficient for hourly rain totals of 0.5"+, even though this is not advertised in the 12z HREF. The three hour flash flood guidance=20 values are so low (around 1") that those values could be exceeded=20 with two hours of such rains. Since soils there are saturated, and=20 the terrain is rugged, opted to add a Marginal Risk area for much=20 of WV (outside of its northern or eastern Panhandles) in=20 coordination with the Charleston WV forecast office.
