   A cold front moving south down the Plains will run into a plume of   
   Gulf moisture moving into eastern Texas tonight. The clash of these   
   two air masses is expected to result in some limited thunderstorm   
   development this evening across portions of east central Texas and   
   northern Louisiana. Overnight tonight, the line will press   
   southward. As the line encounters ever increasing amounts of Gulf   
   moisture, convective coverage is likely to also increase across   
   southeastern Texas. Since the plume will continue northeastward up   
   the front, additional convective development is also expected   
   across central Louisiana. However, both due to increased distance   
   from the Gulf and poor instability (values broadly have come down   
   to at most 500 J/kg of MUCAPE), the storms further north and east   
   into Louisiana are likely to remain as a progressive skinny line of   
   convection. Meanwhile, in the Marginal Risk area across southeast   
   Texas, closer proximity to the Gulf should allow for a bit of pre-   
   frontal convection to form before the more organized line of storms   
   moves through. Given the lack of instability, progressive movement   
   of the storms, time of day (overnight tonight), and very dry soils   
   present along the Gulf Coast, the thinking as regards coverage of   
   flooding remains the same... only very isolated flash flooding   
   possible where any prefrontal storms train over urban or other low-   
   lying, flood-sensitive areas. This remains a lower end (near 5%)   
   flood risk. For the most part, the rain expected tonight will be   
   beneficial. The line will move through the Houston metro around   
   midnight local time, then both weaken and move into the Gulf beyond   
   that.

   The probability of rainfall exceeding flash flood guidance is less   
   than 5 percent.

   ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF EXCESSIVE RAINFALL FOR MUCH OF THE   
   CENTRAL GULF COAST TO THE SOUTHERN APPALACHIANS...   
      
   A fast-moving progressive shortwave trough that extends from an   
   expansive upper level low over Canada will provide the upper level   
   forcing for cyclogenesis along a potent cold front that will   
   roughly parallel the Gulf Coast and Eastern Seaboard. The low will   
   begin to form along the Texas Gulf coast during the day Monday,   
   then track ENE across the Deep South, ending the period near the   
   South Carolina/Georgia border. As the low tracks along the Gulf   
   Coast, it will continually add Gulf moisture to its circulation,   
   while also thriving on the baroclinicity brought on by a   
   reinforcing cold air mass moving southeast from the Midwest. PWATs   
   in the warm, moist Gulf air mass will exceed 1.75 inches in some   
   areas. However, any instability will likely remain along the   
   immediate coast, with very little instability inland. This supports   
   an overrunning rainfall scenario, rather than an overly convective   
   one. A prolonged period of light to moderate rain is expected   
   across much of the South as a result. The heaviest rain is forecast   
   from near New Orleans northeast to the southern Appalachians. It's   
   in this corridor that the highest probability of flash flooding   
   exists. The qualifier to this statement however is that FFGs across   
   the Deep South are quite high as a result of recent dry weather   
   and therefore very dry soils. This will favor most of the rainfall   
   associated with this low being beneficial to affected areas.   
   Isolated flash flooding is most likely in urban or flood-prone   
   areas, as well as in the flashier streams that drain the Southern   
   Appalachians.
