|    HVYRAIN: Excessive Rainfall Discussion    |
|    19 Nov 25 08:25:58    |
      TZUTC: 0000       MSGID: 166822.weather@1:2320/105 2d8540c5       PID: Synchronet 3.21a-Linux master/123f2d28a Jul 12 2025 GCC 12.2.0       TID: SBBSecho 3.28-Linux master/123f2d28a Jul 12 2025 GCC 12.2.0       BBSID: CAPCITY2       CHRS: ASCII 1       FORMAT: flowed       FOUS30 KWBC 190825       QPFERD              Excessive Rainfall Discussion       NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD       325 AM EST Wed Nov 19 2025              Day 1       Valid 12Z Wed Nov 19 2025 - 12Z Thu Nov 20 2025              ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF EXCESSIVE RAINFALL OVER PORTIONS OF       SOUTH-CENTRAL TEXAS, THE CONCHO VALLEY, AND TEXAS HILL COUNTRY...              A large mid/upper trough over the southwestern U.S. will take on a       negative tilt while moving slowly eastward toward the southern       Rockies through 12Z Thursday. As this occurs, abundant Gulf       moisture will be drawn northwestward across much of central and       southeastern Texas. Low-level trajectories indicating upslope into       higher terrain of northern Mexican provinces and areas of 1000-1500       J/kg SBCAPE are supportive of scattered thunderstorms developing       over northern Coahuila and the general vicinity of Del Rio/Eagle       Pass. CAMs depict a concerning signal for training in this region       as cells both 1) migrate northeastward beneath southwesterly       steering flow aloft while 2) redeveloping upstream closer to higher       terrain. A narrow corridor of 1-3 inch rainfall totals could       develop in these areas. Ultimately, local convective evolution will       determine the degree of training and length of heavier rain rates       in this area. Slight Risk and attendant probabilities are       maintained for this forecast as there is some lingering uncertainty       regarding specific location of this axis of heavier rain. However,       PW values approaching 1.5 and slow right-moving motions with any       cells that can acquire mature cold pools/updraft rotation may=20       force a locally significant flash flood threat occurring during the       overnight and early morning Thursday. Convective/rainfall trends=20       will be monitored for any enhanced training that would necessitate=20       a Moderate Risk upgrade.              Farther northeast, models depict deep convection in a more       scattered fashion toward Dallas/Fort Worth and into northeast Texas       (and perhaps western Arkansas). While thermodynamic profiles will       gradually become more supportive of heavy rainfall, weak forcing       (with the mid/upper wave well west of the region), weak/non-       existent low-level convergence, and subtle ridging aloft just east       of the region casts some doubt on convective coverage and=20       resultant flash flood risk. A Marginal Risk remains in place for=20       locally training storms, although this risk appears to be quite=20       conditional.              Across Arizona and New Mexico, deep southerly flow aloft will allow       for scattered shower and thunderstorm activity to drift northward       through much of the day. An uptick in convective coverage is       expected during peak heating hours, with isolated/localized flash       flood potential existing across any low-lying, sensitive, and/or       urban areas. Heavy rainfall (exceeding 1 inch) is expected to occur       on a relatively localized basis. Later in the forecast period       (between 00Z-12Z Thursday), models depict potential for heavier       rainfall to develop in a few locales across southern New Mexico       near several active burn scars. Isolated flash flooding could=20       occur near these burn scars.              Cook              Day 2       Valid 12Z Thu Nov 20 2025 - 12Z Fri Nov 21 2025              ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF EXCESSIVE RAINFALL OVER PORTIONS OF THE=20       SOUTHERN PLAINS INTO ARKANSAS/MISSOURI...              ...Southern Plains...=20       The environment continues to becomes more supportive of storms=20       capable of producing heavy to potentially excessive rainfall as the       flow aloft backs over portions of Texas and Oklahoma and becomes=20       increasingly diffluent as an upper trough approaches the region.

Excessive rainfall is possible by means of=20       intense rainfall rates by individual storms in regions with the=20       highest amount of instability (presumably ahead of the approaching=20       cold front) and by training of cells/multiple rounds of convection=20       (more of a factor where synoptic scale forcing and mesoscale=20       forcing act in tandem farther north).

That may result in=20       additional localized flooding on Thursday or Thursday night.              Bann                     Day 3=20       Valid 12Z Fri Nov 21 2025 - 12Z Sat Nov 22 2025              ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF EXCESSIVE RAINFALL OVER PORTIONS OF=20       THE OHIO VALLEY AND PORTIONS OF THE SOUTHWEST US...              ...Ohio Valley...=20              Rain will be spreading northward and eastward from the Plains on=20       Day 2 into the Ohio Valley on Friday and Friday night in=20       association with the surface low coming out of the mid-Mississippi=20       Valley.
