...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF EXCESSIVE RAINFALL ACROSS NORTHERN
TEXAS AND SOUTHERN OKLAHOMA...
...Southern Plains to the Southeast...
The latest guidance remains consistent in showing additional
shortwave energy pushing east southeastward late Sunday
afternoon/evening from the lee of the Central to Southern Rockies
into the Southern Plains in the northwest flow on the south side
of a stronger upper level low centered over the north-central
United States. This will again re-strengthen the low level flow
into the west to east oriented front forecast to remain across the
Southern Plains, supporting another round of organized convection
along the front. There continues to be fairly good agreement on
the potential for an axes of heavy precip day 2, resulting in good
continuity with the slight risk area with only some small changes
to reflect the latest forecasts. This next round of organized
convection will likely be fairly progressive, similar to what
occurred farther to the north Thursday night into early Friday and
Friday night into early Saturday. Still, there is likelihood of
widespread rainfall amounts of 1-2" with localized amounts up to
4". Soils are not as saturated as areas farther north, but
localized runoff issues are still likely.
...Central Appalachians into the Mid-Atlantic...
The negatively tilted shortwave coming out of the OH Valley late
day 1 will push across the Central Appalachians into the Mid-
Atlantic day 2. There is a fair amount of spread with model qpfs,
but a signal for the potential for locally heavy rains in the
continued well defined area of upper difluence ahead of these
height falls in an axis of above average PW values...1.5 to 2+
standard deviations above the mean. There were only some minor
changes made to the previous marginal risk across the Central
Appalachians into the Mid- Atlantic, continuing to center it across
areas that have lower ffg values.
