Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible Valid 231600Z - 232200Z SUMMARY...Slow moving very intense/efficient thunderstorms capable of 2.5-3"/hr rates and highly localized totals of 4-5"+ across urban corridor may result in rapid inundation flooding concerns through this evening. DISCUSSION...GOES-E Visible imagery, 15z surface observations and local VWP denote the old surface front/boundary is dissolving across southern Florida but vestiges of roll clouds and moisture gradient suggest it remains along/north of Grand Bahama and intersects with early morning sea-breeze along/just east of Broward county with the breeze boundary dropping south along the Keys. A secondary roll arc can be see SW of Collier county...suggesting the remaining front exists through the Everglades, though there is a weak vorticity center/twist in the cu field over western Palm Beach county which also matches up with 925-850mb VWP and pooled/enhanced moisture pool. Td in the upper 70s and total PWat values of 2" exist in the vicinity of the low with expanding cu field that has some suggestion of TCus starting to form. Given temps are nearing 90F, MLCAPEs are reaching 2000+ J/kg along the eastern coast near the low/frontal zone.=20 Destabilization is expected in the next 1-2 hours with this weakly convergence area and with the ample deep warm layer and moisture, rapid rainfall efficiency will rapidly increase with expanding thunderstorms. Deep layer flow is weak below 700mb but above, there should be enough westerly wind speed to support updraft outflow and some weakly organized cells for a few updraft/downdraft cycles increasing duration in vicinity of the urban corridor of SE Florida. Onshore flow should help to reduce eastward propagation (relative to similar cells that will develop along the SW FL coast). Given this rates of 2.5-3"/hr are possible, with 12z HREF probs of 3"/hr maximizing around 20-25% between 20-22z (2"/hr is near 45%); localized spots of 4-5" are possible in less than 1-3hrs possibly resulting in focused/localized rapid inundation flooding in the urban centers.
