While storm coverage is a bit uncertain, rainfall rates of 1-2 in/hr will be possible if/where cells are able to repeat/train. DISCUSSION...Visible satellite and radar imagery across the OH Valley at 21Z showed scattered thunderstorms, some organized supercells, from western TN into portions of southern KY. The cells were located along or south of a slow moving warm front which was analyzed WSW to ENE from the MO Bootheel into southern KY. While better forcing and thunderstorm coverage was located well to the west of this region (northeastern TX into southern MO), sufficient instability, daytime heating, frontal convergence and subtle/weak remnant boundaries from prior convection were helping to develop storms south of the front. Storm motions for most cells should be from the SW to WSW between 30-40 kt, not a major concern for flash flooding and expectations are for cell coverage to remain scattered through the evening. However, there is some low-end potential for additional cell development on the heels of existing cells to set up a window for short term training from SW to NE. Given the highly sensitive, saturated soils from 4 to as much as an estimated 10 inches of rain over the past 48 hours, the potential for another quick 1-2 inches could result in isolated to widely scattered flash flooding into the evening hours.
