An ongoing convective complex is expected to produce areas of locally heavy rainfall across central/eastern Kansas toward the beginning of the forecast period (early Monday morning). Convergence on the nose of strong low-level flow amid modestly steep mid-level lapse rates aloft are likely to sustain the storms for a few hours (between 12-18Z Monday) before veering and weakening low-level flow causes weakening. Local=20 backbuilding/training could result in rates exceeding 1 inch/hr=20 locally, which may result in a few issues with excessive runoff. Isolated thunderstorm activity is expected from southwestern Kansas through the Texas Panhandle during the afternoon and evening hours. The Marginal Risk is being maintained for consistence with prior forecasts, although newest models depict modest convective coverage. Nevertheless, supercellular wind profiles and steep lapse rates aloft may result in intense convection and local rain rates exceeding FFG for a few hours during the afternoon and early evening. This Marginal is conditional on sufficient convective coverage for localized prolonging of heavier rainfall. Lastly, models depict a resurgence of elevated convection on the nose of strong low-level flow. The best convergence (and resultant convective coverage) should extend from southeastern Nebraska south-southeastward along the Kansas/Missouri border region. Localized backbuilding and training could result in spots of 2-4 inch rainfall totals, and flash flooding is possible on an isolated basis. Soil moistures are relatively dry though, further suggesting only an isolated flash flood threat. ....Oregon, northern California... A substantial mid-level system will approach the region from the northeastern Pacific during the afternoon and evening. Ascent/cooling aloft will be well aligned with peak heating, resulting in sufficient instability for widespread showers and occasional thunderstorms. Recent CAMs suggest an area of focus for convection across higher terrain of southwestern Oregon (near the Medford area) and into terrain-favored areas of northern California. Appreciable mid-level lapse rates and PW values approaching 1 inch suggest potential for several areas of wetting convection, and areas of flash flooding are possible especially near burn scars and low-lying, flood prone areas. Deeper convection may also extend toward northern Oregon along the Columbia River Basin, with isolated flash flood potential expected. ....Upper Mississippi Valley... Low-level warm advection across a warm frontal zone from the Dakotas into Iowa should result in areas of showers and thunderstorms by 00Z. The orientation of this convection favors some training/backbuilding that could enhance rain rates locally. 2-3 inch totals are expected, with locally higher amounts possible particularly across northeastern Minnesota.=20=20 ....Florida... A nearly stationary front will remain across northern Florida. Abundant moisture (2+ inch PW values) should reside south of this=20 front. A weak low should also reside just west of the state over Gulf of America waters. Convection is expected to develop over much of the Peninsula in tandem with daytime heating and destabilization. Cells should remain relatively slow-moving, with areas of 2+ inch/hr rain rates (and 3 inch totals) expected throughout the forecast period. Isolated flash flooding is possible especially where these heavier rates can materialize over=20 urbanized/sensitive areas.
