Mesoscale Precipitation Discussion 0946
NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD
559 PM EDT Sat Aug 16 2025

Areas affected...southern WI and north-central IL, as well as
surrounding portions of IA/IN

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding likely

Valid 162155Z - 170300Z

Summary...Very heavy downpours with 1-3" short-term rainfall
totals likely to result in isolated to scattered flash flooding.

Discussion...A compact and potent mid-level shortwave trough is
translating rapidly east-southeast over the Upper Midwest this
afternoon, driving a classic series of mesoscale convective
systems (MCSs) along the northern periphery of a blocked synoptic
scale ridge (centered due south over the Midsouth region).
Persistent convection has favored the ML CAPE gradient (500-4000
J/kg) over the past several hours, which has shifted southward
coincident with prior MCS outflow and the associated tightening
surface thetaE gradient. While some convection is still ongoing
from the earlier morning MCS into northeast IL (rapidly
approaching the Chicago metro with MRMS indicating very heavy
downpours with 15-min rainfall totals nearing 1.0"), a trailing
MCS (currently rapidly progressing through southern WI) is quickly
becoming the more dominate expansive MCS. The mesoscale
environment in the vicinity of theses MCSs is otherwise
characterized by anomalously high tropospheric moisture content
(PWs 1.6-2.0", at or above the 90th percentile per GRB/DVN
sounding climatology), and effective bulk shear of 25-50 kts.

While hi-res CAMs have certainly struggled with the precise
convective evolution that has occured (rather typical in these
highly dynamic, progressive MCS events), collectively analyzed
through the HREF (and associated post-processing including
time-lagged members) a valuable forward-looking signal for heavy
rainfall still emerges. The 18z HREF local probability-match mean
(LPMM) QPF suggests a period of localized 2-3"/3-hr associated
with backbuilding along the west/southwest flank of the MCS (with
new convective initiation occurring where low-level inflow and
iscentropic lift coincide with the highest instability). While the
HREF signal is likely too late/slow overall (as this is already
beginning to occur into southwest WI), 40-km neighborhood
exceedance probabilities for 2" exceedance range from 20-50%
(confined to southern WI, though in reality lower-end
probabilities for these amounts likely extend both upstream and
downstream of the dominate MCS, due to underestimated forward
propagation AND backbuilding by the CAMs overall). Although hourly
runs of the HRRR have not proven as useful as the HREF signal
(which also seems rather typical when the environment of the model initialization is mismatched with the observational assimilation),
the experimental WoFS does suggest that similar 2"+ localized
totals are possible (via an increasing trend in the 90th
percentile QPF with a 27-km neighborhood 2" exceedance probs in
the 20-40% range, notably displaced south and west of the HREF
signal).

While the greatest signal/risk for flash flooding is judged to be
across southern WI and northern IL, the MPD also encompasses areas
downstream (southeast into far northwest IN) and upstream (west
into adjacent portions of IA) due to the aforementioned forward
propagation and backbuilding threats. While these surrounding
areas are less likely to realize localized 2"+ totals, the chances
for 1"+ amounts (in as little as 15-30 min with very heavy
downpours) are likely (per HREF/WoFS exceedance probs of 40%+)
with associated 1-hr Flash Flood Guidance (FFGs) ranging from as
low as 1.0-1.5" across a substantial portion of the region. As a
result, isolated to scattered instances of flash flooding are
considered likely (with conditional backbuilding of convection
largely dictating the overall coverage and potential for an
instance or two of more significant flash flooding).

Mesoscale Precipitation Discussion 0947
NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD
1134 PM EDT Sat Aug 16 2025

Areas affected...Southeast MN...Northeast IA...Southern
WI...Northern IL...

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding likely

Valid 170335Z - 170900Z

SUMMARY...Warm-advection thunderstorms with potential for training
and spots of 2-4" across areas of recent heavy rainfall/saturated
soils likely resulting in scattered incidents of flash flooding.

DISCUSSION...GOES-E WV suite shows increased anticyclonic
curvature in upper-level cirrus pattern indicative of shortwave
ridging in the wake of the exiting shortwave across the Lower
Peninsula of Michigan. The associated surface front extends
through central Lake Michigan across southern WI into the northern
row of counties in IA; though the effective boundary due to strong
overturning from this evening's convection intersects the front
near near KPDC and angles southeastward across NE IL into just
north of KDNV. Deep layer moisture remains pooled along the
frontal zone with 1.75-2" Total Pwats across N IA/S MN before
broadening across S WI into northeast IL. LLJ response is a broad southwesterly 15-20kt flow along the entire front; so best
moisture convergence/isentropic ascent is at the intersection
remains along the intersection of the old outflow boundary and
surface front in NE IA/SW WI/NW IL. Upper-level right entrance to
the jet further enhances vertical ascent in proximity to the
front, also helping to sharpen the isentropes vertically
throughout the night. Efficient rainfall production given strong
convergence and unstable air with favorable evacuation aloft,
should support 1.5-2"/hr rates within the expanding cores.=20


GOES-E 10.3um shows strong cooling tops below -65C along the
orthogonal section of ascent, with upstream redevelopment and
increasing TCu noted across SE MN. With flanking development and
steering flow from NW to SE, a favorable training environment
setup may allow for increased duration and localized 2-4" totals
are likely especially from SE MN and SW WI, as potential for
further upstream development is likely throughout the overnight
period as well, and as such an isolated spot over 5" is not out of
the realm of possibility.=20

To compound issues, the area has seen recent heavy rainfall and
the upper soil conditions remain relatively saturated with 0-40cm
ratios well over 50 with spots near 70% across MN, WI (above 90th
percentile) before reducing to below 40% over Chicagoland into NW
IND per NASA SPoRT LIS product(though tonight's rain, likely
improved those values. As such, infiltation may be a bit more
difficult and increased runoff is likely to result in scattered
incidents of flash flooding overnight tonight.=20=20

Mesoscale Precipitation Discussion 0948
NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD
132 AM EDT Sun Aug 17 2025

Areas affected...Northwest South Dakota...South-central North
Dakota...

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

Valid 170530Z - 171100Z

SUMMARY...Expanding convective clusters with potential
repeating/merging elements. Rates of 1.75-2"/hr and localized
2-3" totals pose localized possible incidents of flash flooding
overnight.

DISCUSSION...GOES-E WV suite shows an elongated north to south
shortwave feature along the eastern edge of larger scale trough in
the Northern Rockies, lifting northeastward out of northwest SD
into southwest ND continuing to be enhanced by broad right
entrance of 300mb 50kt jet entrance along its northwest quadrant.
This is supporting a strong surface to low level wind response,
further confluent/convergent along and north of the Black Hills
across W SD. 05z surface analysis shows stationary front along
the SD/NEB border with Tds in the low to upper 70s throughout the
SD fluxed on solid, weakly confluent easterly flow. The bulk of
the moisture resides north of the surface front, though 850-700mb
moisture flux convergence is further increased deep layer flux
given directional confluence from southerly to southeasterly along
the southern flank of the elongated shortwave trough north of the
Black Hills. As such, Total PWat values have increased from 1.75
along the convergence axis. As such, strong clusters continue to
expand and merge with pre-cursory convergence axes across
northwest SD; noted in the RADAR mosaic and expanding/cooling
10.3um IR canopy tops. Ample mid-level lapse rates and higher
theta-E air support CAPEs over 2000 J/kg which further increase
within the upstream inflow region north of the frontal zone. As
such, cells are already becoming rather efficient in rainfall
production with rates of 1.75-2"/hr noted throughout the expanding clusters.=20=20

As the trough is lifting, differential shear within the steering
profile (as the elongated trough lifts north) is helping to orient
cell motions toward a repeating/short-term training profile, which
is expected to become further convergent as the wave is reaching
the apex of the synoptic ridging over south-central ND. As a
result, an axis of 2-3"+ totals are likely to expand toward a
larger cluster toward the central common border of the Dakotas
over the next 3-5hrs. The rates alone are near/just above the
1-1.75"/hr FFG values in all but a few scattered locations within
the area of concern and localized areas are probable to exceed the
2-2.5"/3hr values, suggesting flash flooding is possible through
the overnight period. And while the top layers have been in
prolonged drought with 0-40cm saturation ratio below 25%, the
sheer rate on hard soils will further limit infiltration and
result in increased runoff.

203 AM EDT Sun Aug 17 2025

Areas affected...Southern Minnesota...East-central South Dakota...

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

Valid 170600Z - 171200Z

SUMMARY...Slow moving, potentially repeating cells pose 2-4"
totals and possible localized incidents of flash flooding through
the remainder of the overnight period.

DISCUSSION...GOES-E 10.3um IR loop shows expanding cluster of
thunderstorms across SW MN over the last few hours and starting to
become better organized with broadening up/downdrafts;
concurrently while newer development is developing between it and
the downstream clusters in WI/MN/IA Tri-state area. Additionally,
combined with 3.9um loop, low stratus north of the frontal
boundary across central MN/N WI shows southward cold advection
that is further steepening the isentropes across the frontal
boundary that generally sits across the northern row of counties
in Iowa. RAP analysis, confirmed by CIRA LPW shows pool of deep
layer moisture with Total PWat values over 2" extending from
northeast SD through SE MN, generally enhanced further west where
flux has been greatest along the nose of the southerly low-level
jet where winds are up to 20-25kt per KFSD VWP vs 15-20kts further
east. The strong moisture convergence along the steepening
isentropic surface, MLCAPEs of 3000-3500 J/kg, has resulted in a
slightly southward development versus 00z Hi-Res CAMs and recent
HRRR cycles, as such, proximity to stronger orthogonal moisture
flux should support efficient rainfall production with rates of
2"/hr.

Stronger shortwave to the west and exiting one to the east has
resulted in fairly unidirectional but also weaker steering flow
just a bit south of due east and parallel to the frontal boundary.
Mean winds of 10-15kts are expected and should allow for some
potential training, but more likely slow overall cell motion
allowing for a few hours of intense rainfall and pockets of 2-4"
totals. Stronger LLJ due to the approaching wave over the western
Dakotas suggest upstream convective development is probable later
into the overnight periods far west as the Coteau des Prairies
Plateau, but also intersect with back-building from upstream
cluster/WAA cells in SE MN. As such, have included portions of SE
MN that were incorporated in MPD 947 for longer valid time toward
12z.=20

429 AM EDT Sun Aug 17 2025

Areas affected...Northeast Illinois...Northwest Indiana...

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

Valid 170830Z - 171300Z

SUMMARY...Isentropic ascent within remaining unstable/moist
environment continues. Additional 1.5-3" totals training in
proximity of Chicago and suburbs will keep risk of incidents of
flash flooding possible through daybreak.

DISCUSSION...GOES-E 10.3um IR loop shows much of northern IL has
remained untapped through the overnight period. This is confirmed
by recent RAP analysis fields with 2500-3000 J/kg of MUCAPE across
N IL. Surface analysis continue to show affects of initial
evening complex of return southeasterly flow with remnants of a
boundary angled NW to SE from far NW IL toward DNV, which given
recent elevated convective lines through Chicagoland; seems to be
reinforced with steepened isentropes from north to south. This
while VWP at DVN and LOT/ORD shows generally west and
west-northwest 15-25kts orthogonal to the boundary. RADAR shows a
few upstream cells redeveloping given the stronger moisture flux
in the upglide through N IL. Moisture remains more than ample
given Tds in the low to mid 70s from the source while mid-level
moisture/RH remains solid for a core of 2"+ total PWats through
the ascent plane. As such, thunderstorms will have solid vertical
moisture loading to continue to support 2"/hr rates.

Deep layer steering starts to curl anti-cylonically along the
northeast edge of the deeper ridging, and convection has been
bending right of mean flow becoming parallel to the IND/IL border.
Though further southward, the inflow/upglide weakens and becomes
displaced from the core of unstable air, so cells have been
generally weakening further south or eastward, and this is likely
to continue throughout the early morning, limiting the risk for
additional heavy rainfall toward northeast IL/Northwest IND.=20

Currently LLJ strength is strong and with heavy rainfall/cold pool
generation closer to the Lakeshore, westward propagation and
closer to surface rooting of cells may limit path of newer
development to train over earlier tracks, but there will remain
some intersection for an additional 1-3" with newer cells; combine
that with proximity to urban environment near Chicago and
increased run-off make it more probable that incidents of flash
flooding/rapid inundation remain possible through the early
morning hours.

Areas affected...Northeast SD...Southeast ND...West-Central to
Southern MN...Far Northern IA

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding likely

Valid 171200Z - 171700Z

SUMMARY...Additional heavy showers and thunderstorms this morning
will continue to foster areas of flash flooding.

DISCUSSION...The early-morning GOES-E IR satellite imagery along
with radar shows a fairly organized axis of locally training
showers and thunderstorms impacting southern MN. This convection
is focused generally along and just north of a stationary front
draped west to east across the Upper Midwest.

MUCAPE values of 2000+ J/kg remain in place along this boundary
which in conjunction with a relatively modest southwest 20 to 30
kt low-level jet interacting with it should favor renewed rounds
of heavy showers and thunderstorms. This activity will continue to
be capable of training over the same area going through at least
the mid to late-morning hours given alignment that is nearly
parallel to the deeper layer steering flow. Some southward advance
of this activity into far northern IA is also possible given the
influence of the convectively enhanced cold pool close to the
MN/IA border.

Additional areas of heavy showers and thunderstorms will also be a
concern upstream over parts of northeast SD and southeast ND as an
upstream forward propagating MCS arrives and interacts with the
aforementioned front while fostering somewhat stronger warm air
advection out ahead of it. However, this activity at least by late
this morning should begin to gradually weaken as it approaches
west-central MN.

Rainfall rates with all of the stronger and more organized cells
in the short-term will still be capable of reaching 1.5 to 2.5
inches/hour which is being supported by the instability and a
corridor of 1.75+ inch PWs.

Additional rainfall totals as high as 3 to 5 inches will be
possible, and especially over southern MN where some of the most
organized convective activity is occurring. The latest HRRR and
WoFS guidance supports these totals at least locally as well.

Given the ongoing areas of flash flooding locally, and with these
additional rains, more areas of flash flooding are expected going
through at least the mid to late morning hours.

NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD
944 PM EDT Sun Aug 17 2025

Areas affected...south-central/southeastern MN into
north-central/northeastern IA and adjacent portions of WI/IL

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding likely

Valid 180140Z - 180600Z

Summary...1-3"/hr rainfall rates to continue into the overnight,
resulting in localized short-term rainfall totals as high as 4-8".
Scattered to numerous instances of flash flooding likely, some
significant/life threatening (particularly across south-central
and southeastern MN).

Discussion...Convection is proliferating this evening in the
vicinity of a low-level frontal zone and associated
instability/thetaE gradient, extending from southwestern MN
through northeastern IA into northern IL. A weak shortwave/vort
max immediately upstream (ND/SD/MN border region) seems to be
resulting in the most intense/widespread convection across
south-central MN into north-central IA (by way of DPVA and added
divergence aloft from the right-entrance region of an associated
jet streak), and this convective organization should continue into
the early overnight hours as the low-level jet strengthens. The
mesoscale environment is otherwise characterized by an MLCAPE
gradient of 2500-4500 J/kg (with +400 J/kg in the past 3-hr over
southern MN), precipitable water of 1.6-2.0" (well above the 90th
percentile and approaching the max moving average, per MPX
sounding climatology), and effective bulk shear of 25-30 kts.

While observational trends favor portions of south-central and
southeastern MN for the greatest coverage and intensity of heavy
rainfall in the near term, the hi-res CAMs (18z HREF and 12z
experimental REFS) strongest signal is displaced to the northwest
(clustered over central MN, which is where the best dynamics are=20
certainly located... but ultimately too far displaced from the
best boundary layer thermodynamics which the deep convection has
favored and anchored to). Despite this spatial displacement, the
signal suggests relatively high chances for localized 3"
exceedance (30-50% probs, per 40-km neighborhood of HREF/REFS).
Farther to the southeast along the frontal zone (where dynamics
are less impressive and training should be less of an issue, but
storm motions tend to be slower with storms still capable of
1-3"/hr rates) the CAMs still support the potential for 3"
exceedance (10-30% probs) with the more recent experimental WoFS
runs (23-01z) even suggesting the potential for localized totals
of 4-8" from south-central/southeastern MN into
northeastern/eastern IA (per 90th percentile QPF and associated 5"
exceedance probabilities of 40%+).

As much of the region remains fairly saturated from recent days
heavy rains (with an axis of 2-4" of rain across a portion of the
area over just the past 24-hr), Flash Flood Guidance (FFG) suggest
impacts from as little as 1.0-2.0" over 1-3 hour period. As a
result, scattered to numerous instances of flash flooding are
considered likely. Given the particular hydrologic sensitivity
across portions of southeastern MN (including the Twin Cities
metro area), there is a higher than typical risk for localized
instances of significant/life threatening flash flooding.

Mesoscale Precipitation Discussion 0953
NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD
157 AM EDT Mon Aug 18 2025

Areas affected...Southeast SD...Northeast NEB...Northern
IA...Southern MN...Western WI...

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

Valid 180600Z - 181200Z

SUMMARY...A muddled mess of shortwave, warm advection and
small/storm scale forcing within a solidly unstable/deep moist
environment should result in widely scattered thunderstorms with
some weakly organized clusters capable of short-duration training
elements. Widely scattered incidents of flash flooding remain
possible through late overnight period

DISCUSSION...Regional RADAR mosaic denotes two weakly organized
shortwave features. The leading one having driven stronger
thunderstorms and scattered flash flooding is progressing out of
southeast MN into NW WI with the convergent banding noted from
north-central IA through to the eastern quadrant of the shortwave
into west-central WI. The second flatter west to east wave across
southern SD is driving some smaller clusters with weakening bowing
elements and trailing convergent thunderstorms in the eastern Sand
Hills of NEB.

Both reside in a broad southerly low level jet providing some
moisture flux and isentropic ascent/convergence along stationary
front that extends from east of KPIR to south of KFSD and through
northern IA before angling southeastward from a weak surface
inflection west of KALO southward into IL near KGBG. Surface Tds
remain well above average ranging through the 70s with spots of
75-77F pooled along it. This results in 1.9 to 2.1" total Pwats
along its length; though stronger LLJ to 25-30kts west of the
Missouri River is increasing moisture ahead of the western,
upstream wave. Environment remains fairly unstable with ample
well of 2000-3000 J/kg of MUCAPE for any areas of forcing focused
enough to break through minimal capping with isentropic
ascent/convergence along the front. Instability pool is a bit
deeper and extends northward through the isentropic ascent further
west with the stronger LLJ. Here rates are likely to be stronger
up to 2"/hr but forward propagation may limit overall duration.=20
Deep layer westerly flow aloft may also allow for some
short-duration training/repeating across NE NEB/SE SD into NW IA;
which will likely be necessary for localized totals over 3" in
3-4hrs. These higher rates/totals will be more necessary across
an area with higher FFG due to recent very dry conditions. Still
widely scattered incidents remain possible.

Further east across SE MN/NE IA/W WI...A wedge of
enhanced/confluent flow due to exiting shortwave in MN will allow
a narrow channel along its southern and eastern flank for
additional elevated convection that has some potential for training/back-building. As the instability reduces quicker toward
the northeast into central WI, the coverage and intensity will
diminish quickly and likely not exceed the FFG into Northern and
northeastern WI. However, continued upglide/back-building through
lower FFG due to recent heavy rainfall across southern MN/SE MN
and northern IA may see spots of 2-3" and similarly possible
incidents of scattered flash flooding through 12z.

Overall, confidence is below average for any given location for
flash flooding given above average dispersion of Hi-Res CAM
solutions to the evolution. Still, the environment remains
solidly conducive that a few incidents of localized flash flooding
are probable, especially over the recently saturated regions north
and east of the surface front. Scattered 2-3" totals with
isolated 4" totals remain possible through 12z.=20=20=20

Mesoscale Precipitation Discussion 0955
NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD
237 PM EDT Mon Aug 18 2025

Areas affected...Coastal Plain from Southeast Virginia through
Northeast South Carolina

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

Valid 181836Z - 190000Z

Summary...Showers and thunderstorms developing along a cold front
will expand and intensify through the afternoon. These storms will
be slow moving, and contain rainfall rates of 1-3"/hr. This could
produce 2-3" of rainfall with locally higher amounts, and
instances of flash flooding.

Discussion...The GOES-E day-cloud phase microphysics RGB this
afternoon is beginning to show rapid updraft growth from the
Tidewater region of Virginia through eastern NC. These storms are
developing along a slowly advancing cold front, with low-level
convergence along the boundary the primary ascent mechanism. Lift
along this front is occurring into robust thermodynamics to
support heavy rainfall. PWs measured by GPS are as high as 1.6
inches in southeast Virginia, and onshore northeast flow is
funneling a narrow corridor of PWs above 1.9 inches into eastern
NC. This elevated PW is overlapping MUCAPE of 2000-3000 J/kg
centered along this front, and developing convection within this
environment is producing radar-estimated rain rates that have
already exceeded 1.5"/hr according to KMHX.

The high-res CAMs are a little slow to capture the ongoing
development, but are generally in agreement that a narrow corridor
of thunderstorms will expand along this front through peak heating
of the aftn. This is reflected by relatively high EAS
probabilities for 1"/6hrs focused across eastern NC which reflect
the good CAM agreement. These storms will be generally slow moving
from N/NE to S/SW along the boundary, and cell motions progged by
propagation vectors the next several hours will be just around 5
kts. Additionally, these propagation vectors will remain aligned
to the front, suggesting training and repeating cells through the
aftn. With rain rates likely reaching 1-3"/hr (HREF neighborhood
probabilities for 2"/hr peaking above 60% coincident with HRRR
15-min rainfall above 0.75" suggesting brief 3"/hr rates), total
rainfall could reach 2-3" with locally as much as 5" possible as
shown by HREF neighborhood probabilities for 5"/6hrs as high as
20%.

This region has been quite wet recently as reflected by AHPS 7-day
rainfall that is above 300% of normal in most of the discussion
area. Although some of this rainfall has drained efficiently to
lower 0-10cm RSM to less than 50% and elevate 3-hr FFG to above
3", the forecast slow movement and training of these cells is
still causing HREF 3-hr FFG exceedance probabilities above 40%.
While this suggests the flash flood risk is generally confined to
where the most significant training can occur, it is possible that
any of these intense rain rates, especially if they occur atop an
urban area, could cause instances of flash flooding through the
aftn.

Mesoscale Precipitation Discussion 0956
NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD
548 PM EDT Mon Aug 18 2025

Areas affected...eastern IA, southern WI, and northern IL into
surrounding portions of MN/IN

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding likely

Valid 182145Z - 190300Z

Summary...Thunderstorms with hourly totals of up to 1-2" are
expected to train/repeat with short-term totals of 2-5". Scattered
to numerous instances of flash flooding are likely (and locally significant/life threatening flash flood concerns are particularly
elevated in the vicinity of the Chicago metro).

Discussion...Convection is proliferating once again today across
portions of the Upper Midwest, focused primarily in the vicinity
of a weak surface low pressure and an associated warm front. The
mesoscale environment very supportive of heavy rainfall with
plentiful instability (1500-5500 J/kg of SBCAPE), highly anomalous
tropospheric moisture (PWs 1.7-2.0", between the 90th percentile
and max moving average, per DVN sounding climatology), and
effective bulk shear of 20-40 kts (with the best shear farther
north along the warm front, and generally below 20 kts farther
south into the warm sector (southeast IA into north-central IL). A
shortwave and associated vorticity maxima aloft (located nearly
directly above the weak surface low @ 500 mb) will provide
additional forcing for lift, along with a bit of additional
divergence from an associated right-entrance region of a jet
streak (though the best upper-level divergence is displaced to the
northeast into northern WI/MI, where instability is much more
limited). As the low-level jet strengthens into the evening hours,
this should help to sustain updrafts and organize convection
(despite only conditionally unstable mid-level lapse rates) with a
series of linear segments of thunderstorms resulting in localized
west-to-east training (despite relatively strong steering flow
with 850-300 mb winds of 20 kts). With MRMS already indicating
localized hourly totals as high as 1-2" with 3-hr Flash Flood
Guidance (FFG) generally ranging from 1.0-2.0" across the MPD
area.

As the strongest convection (with hourly estimates as high as 2")
approaches the greater Chicago metro area, the risk for instances
of life threatening flash flooding are elevated late this
afternoon and evening. Nearly all of the latest hi-res CAM data
supports these significant flash flooding concerns, as the 18z
NAM-nest and hourly runs of both the HRRR and experimental RRFS
since then depict localized totals of 3-5" in the vicinity of the
Chicago metro (with the NAM-nest and some RRFS runs indicating the
potential for extreme localized totals of 5"+, which is also
reflected in the 18z HREF neighborhood probabilities of 5"
exceedance ranging from 10-20%). While southeast WI into northeast
IL is certainly the greatest area of concern for prolong/repeated
heavy rainfall, areas farther south and west are still likely to
flood from expected 2-4" localized totals (given aforementioned
FFGs of only 1.0-2.0" for much of the area). As a result,
scattered to numerous instances of flash flooding are likely.

Areas affected...Southern WI...Northern half of IL...Northwest
IND...Far Southwest LP of MI...

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding likely

Valid 190245Z - 190845Z

SUMMARY...Incidents of flash flooding likely to continue, yet
overall coverage/totals will reduce with increasing forward speed.
Best chance for flash flooding will be new 'repeated' cell tracks
across S WI/NE IL

DISCUSSION...GOES-E WV, RADAR and RAP analysis show southern
stream, convectively enhanced shortwave/MCV feature is pressing
eastward across Chicago into southern Lake Michigan at this time,
continuing to drive strongest downstream low level convergence
along the quasi-bowing feature from northwest IND southward across
the Kankakee Valley. Storms remain in unstable environment with
ample deep layer moisture (Tds in the mid 70s and total moisture
over 2"), but the stationary front remains anchored across
southwest LP of MI into north-central IND before Tds and unstable
air rapidly srop off, so there is a narrow area of enhanced
rainfall rates up to 2", but cells should quickly diminish into
the more stable air. Additionally, area across LP of MI and
Northeast IND has been much drier and FFGs reflect that, further
reducing the risk to all but the most ideal training across
urban/low infiltration ground conditions.

However, the upstream flanking line across into central IL, does
remain very unstable with MUCAPEs of 2000-3000 j/kg and solid
moisture flux convergence along the confluent low level flow
regime. Deep layer steering may allow for some southwest to
northeast repeating, though height-falls from the passing
shortwave/MCV should allow for southeast propagation to limit
overall totals to 2-3", lower FFG values of less than 2"/hr and
1.5-2.5"/3hrs in all but the further southwest portions of central
IL remain at good risk of locally being exceeded through the next
few hours.

Further north...S WI/N IL...
GOES-E WV depicts core of larger/synoptic to mesoscale shortwave
feature across central to S WI, is exiting and downward mixing is
starting to help advance the stationary front across SW WI through
depth, sharpening convergence along and south of the boundary.=20
While partially mixed, there remains ample remaining unstable air
of 1500-2000 J/kg and ample deep layer moisture to support an
additional round of stronger thunderstorms. These upstream
thunderstorms will be narrower in nature but should have the
opportunity to track across areas already affected by heavy
rainfall with rates of 1.75-2"/hr; localized additional 1-3"
totals would reaggravate any flooding conditions across S WI and
few northern rows of N IL. As such, localized incidents of flash
flooding are likely to persist through the overnight period.

Areas affected...southeastern Virginia/far southern DelMarVa
Peninsula

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

Valid 191318Z - 191918Z

Summary...A focused areas of nearly stationary convection has
produced spots of 2.5-5 inch rainfall totals across the far
southern DelMarVa Peninsula this morning. Additional totals of
3-5 inches cannot be ruled out. Localized/isolated inundation is
expected through at least 19Z.

Discussion...Slow-moving convection has evolved across the
southern DelMarVa this morning. The storms are embedded within a
relatively focused area of low-level convergence just east of a
weak surface low near PHF/Williamsburg, with low-level easterlies
maintaining moisture/buoyancy against a more stable airmass across
much of Virginia. Weak/modest kinematics were supporting slow
cell movement, and spots of 1-3 inch/hr rain rates were being
estimated per MRMS with the most dominant activity. A few flood
impacts have also been observed near the Accomack, VA area this
morning.

Although the spatial extent of the flash flood threat is fairly
localized, the slow evolution of meso-to-synoptic-scale features
supporting heavy rainfall is a bit concerning. Heavy rainfall
could persist in this regime through 19Z, with additional 3-5 inch
rainfall totals possible. Models suggest that the convergence
axis/low supporting heavy rainfall will gradually migrate westward
through midday, which may temper the heavy rain threat eventually.
Local impacts are expected to continue and may worsen while heavy
rainfall persists.

Areas affected...eastern Arizona, portions of New Mexico

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

Valid 191732Z - 192332Z

Summary...Thunderstorms will increase in coverage and intensity
through 00Z/6p MDT, with flash flooding possible especially in
low-lying spots and near burn scars.

Discussion...Latest satellite/radar imagery depicts abundant
insolation leading to isolated convective development along
favored ridgelines/terrain - especially in New Mexico. The storms
are forming in an environment with just enough mid-level
instability and moisture (0.75-1.3 inch PW values) for wetting
thunderstorms to develop. Kinematic fields aloft suggest slow and
at times erratic movement with any developing activity. Models
and observations are also suggestive of continued expansion of
convective coverage through peak heating hours and beyond.

As cells continue to expand in coverage, areas of 0.5-1 inch/hr
rain rates will become more common. Perhaps the highest
concentration of higher rain rates will occur across southern New
Mexico and southeastern Arizona where moisture content/PW values
are highest. Areas of heavy rainfall may occur atop sensitive
low-lying areas and burn scars that could enhance runoff locally.

Models (particularly the HREF) depict that the peak convective
threat will likely occur in the 21-00Z timeframe, with slow
weakening expected beyond that timeframe. Flash flooding will be
possible given the aforementioned scenario.

Areas affected...Southern Appalachians

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

Valid 191823Z - 200000Z

Summary...Thunderstorms with 2-3"/hr rain rates will expand across
the Southern Appalachians this afternoon. These storms will be
very slow moving, leading to 2-3" of rainfall with locally as much
as 5" possible. Flash flooding may result.

Discussion...The GOES-E day-cloud phase microphysics RGB this aftn
shows a rapid intensification of updrafts now featuring cloud ice
as Cbs develop along a line from west-central NC into far northern
GA. This activity is blossoming in response to persistent upslope
flow on E/NE winds behind a cold front that has sagged into the
GA/SC coastal plain as analyzed by WPC. Despite being behind the
front, this low level flow is pooling moisture across the Southern
Appalachians as reflected by PWs measured by GPS as much as 1.5
inches near Asheville, NC and 2.1 inches near Columbia, SC. At the
same time, breaks in the clouds on the western periphery of the
cold air damming (CAD) is allowing for a rapid increase of
instability which is now analyzed via the SPC RAP to be 2000-3000
J/kg. The fresh convection in northern GA has already resulted in
MRMS hourly rainfall of nearly 1.5 inches and resultant FLASH
response of 300+ cfs/smi unit streamflow.

Although the CAMs differ in the coverage of convection through
this aftn, the persistent upslope flow into this overlap of
moisture and instability should support expansion and continuation
well into the evening. Rainfall rates as progged by the HREF
neighborhood probabilities have a 20-30% chance of exceeding 2"/hr
within any of this convection, while the HRRR 15-min rainfall
indicates up to 0.75" suggesting brief 3"/hr rain rates. Despite
the uncertainty in coverage, the HREF EAS probabilities indicate
the greatest potential for heavy rainfall will be across the Blue
Ridge and southward into the northern GA Piedmont, and this is
supported by the differential heating boundary caused by the cloud
breaks within the CAD to the east. A ridge to the west will keep
overall forcing generally light and flow weak, indicating that
storms will move very slowly on 0-6km mean winds of just 5 kts.
This could be problematic as the continued upslope flow will
support regenerating cells, and at times storms may stall with
zero net motion, especially during periods of boundary
interactions within the otherwise pulse environment.

The slow movement and regenerating behavior of these heavy rain
rates could produce 2-3" of rain, with locally as much as 5"
possible (10-15% chance from the HREF). This heavy rain will occur
across soils that are vulnerable both due to the general
sensitivity of the complex terrain, but also due to 0-10cm soil
moisture that is above the 95th percentile according to NASA
SPoRT. Any heavy slow moving heavy rainfall across this region
could quickly result in runoff and instances of flash flooding.

Areas affected...portions of central and eastern Kansas

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

Valid 191822Z - 192322Z

Summary...Slow-moving thunderstorms will produce areas of 1-2
inch/hr rain rates through 00Z/7p CDT tonight. Areas of flash
flooding are possible.

Discussion...A cluster of strong thunderstorms have developed in
the Manhattan/Emporia region over the past half hour. The storms
are embedded in a strongly unstable (2000-3000 J/kg MLCAPE)
environment, with 1.8 inch PW values supporting heavier rainfall
in water-loaded downdrafts. The cells are likely benefiting from
weak mid-level vorticity maxima (over eastern Nebraska and western
Kansas) providing ascent. Low-level convergence along a remnant
outflow from morning convection was also likely providing a focus
for updraft development in the area.

Kinematics aloft are supportive of slow and at times erratic storm
motions along with 1-2 inch/hr rain rates beneath dominant
activity. The proximity of intense convective development and
downdraft potential (from 7C/km lapse rates aloft) suggests that
the storms will eventually form one or two small linear
segments/clusters that propagate slowly southward toward US 50 and
US 400 near/east of Wichita over the next 2-3 hours or so. Flash
flood potential should accompany this activity - especially across
east-central and northeastern Kansas where FFG thresholds are
around 1 inch/hr and could readily become exceeded. Slightly
higher rain rates may be needed with southward extent for any
appreciable flash flood risk.

Areas affected...The Ozarks

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

Valid 191902Z - 200100Z

Summary...Showers and thunderstorms developing ahead of an MCV
will expand in coverage through the aftn. Rainfall rates of
1-2"/hr are expected, which could result in 2-3" of rainfall with
locally higher amounts. Flash flooding is possible.

Discussion...The regional radar mosaic this aftn depicts rapid
expansion of increasing reflectivity associated with developing
convection from southeast Missouri through far eastern Oklahoma.
These thunderstorms are developing in response to ascent produced
through weak upper level directional divergence atop subtle height
falls as a convectively enhanced shortwave and remnant MCV tracks
southward from Missouri. An outflow boundary (OFB) ahead of this
MCV noted in satellite imagery is producing additional lift
through convergence, while general N/NW flow is producing modest
upslope ascent into the Ozarks as well. This ascent is acting upon
favorable thermodynamics characterized by PWs measured by GPS of
1.7 to 1.8 inches, around the 90th percentile for the date,
collocated with MUCAPE around 3000 J/kg south of the OFB.

Cells that have developed so far have been generally small with
narrow updrafts, which within the pulse environment (limited bulk
shear) is keeping rainfall intensity to around 0.5-1"/hr with
short temporal lifespans. However, the CAMs suggest that
thunderstorms will become more widespread and intense as the MCV
and OFB drop southward into the evening, and as coverage
increases, storm mergers and collisions will lead to regenerating
cells with longer lifetimes. During this time, PWs are likely to
increase to above 2", suggesting the thermodynamic environment
will become even more favorable as the forcing intensifies, with
the result being HREF neighborhood probabilities for 2"/hr rain
rates peaking above 30%. Although cells should steadily move
southward on mean 0-6km winds of 5-10 kts, propagation vectors may
veer sufficiently to allow redevelopment upstream suggesting that
in addition to storm mergers, some areas could receive repeating
rounds of thunderstorms. Where this occurs, total rainfall of
2-3", with locally 3-4", is possible as reflected by HREF
exceedance probabilities for 3"/6hrs of 40%.

Soils across this area are generally dry according to NASA SPoRT
due to minimal recent rainfall noted via AHPS. This has allowed
FFG to reach 3-4"/3hrs. While this should limit the magnitude and
coverage of any flash flooding, isolated impacts are possible
where any repeating cells can occur, especially within urban areas
or any more sensitive terrain.

347 PM EDT Wed Aug 20 2025

Areas affected...Portions of Tennessee, Alabama, and Mississippi

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

Valid 201947Z - 210100Z

Summary...Slow moving showers and thunderstorms will expand
through the afternoon. Rainfall rates will likely exceed 2"/hr at
times, leading to pockets of 2-4" of rainfall. This may lead to
instances of flash flooding, especially over urban areas.

Discussion...The regional radar mosaic this aftn indicates rapid
development of showers and thunderstorms from south-central TN
through central MS. This convection is developing ahead of an
approaching cold front and along a low-level convergence boundary
formed by the interaction of convective outflows and a surface
trough. Ascent across this region is being additionally enhanced
by a modest shortwave tracking E/SE near the MS/TN border.

This broad ascent is acting upon a favorable thermodynamic
environment to support heavy rainfall. PWs as measured by GPS are
between 1.8 and 2.1 inches, around the 90th percentile for the
date, overlapping MUCAPE that is between 3000-4000 J/kg south of
the cold front. This is driving the rapid expansion of convection
noted in the regional radar, with additional storms forming due to
outflow collisions and storm mergers in the generally pulse-type
environment.

Rainfall rates have been estimated via local radars to be as high
as 2-2.5"/hr from KHTX and KOHX, leading to MRMS hourly rainfall
as much as 2.5 inches. As the aftn progresses, the continued
ascent drifting southward into a ribbon of enhanced moisture
confluence could support more frequent rainfall rates above 2"/hr
as supported by HREF neighborhood probabilities, and the HRRR
15-min precipitation accumulation suggests brief rates in excess
of 3"/hr are possible. While storms should remain generally pulse
due to minimal bulk shear, and mean winds support a slow southward
advance of cells at 5-10 kts, frequent mergers and collisions will
lead to slower and at times chaotic motion which could enhance the
duration of rainfall. Where this occurs, total rainfall through
this evening could reach 2-4" as reflected by HREF 6-hr rain
probabilities exceeding 40% for 3 inches.

7-day rainfall across the area has been scattered, but in some
parts of the discussion area, especially in AL/TN, has been as
much as 300% of normal, leading to 0-10cm soil moisture from NASA
SPoRT that is above the 95th percentile. While FFG remains
elevated, and FFG exceedance probabilities are modest in response,
it is possible that any slow moving/lingering heavy rainfall could
overwhelm soils to produce rapid runoff. However, this will be
most likely across any urban areas which have the greatest
potential for isolated flash flood impacts into this evening.

911 PM EDT Wed Aug 20 2025

Areas affected...Southern Arkansas, western Mississippi, northern
Louisiana

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

Valid 210111Z - 210600Z

Summary...Showers and thunderstorms will continue for several more
hours ahead of a cold front before waning tonight. Rainfall rates
of 2-3"/hr, while generally brief, will produce 2-3" of rain.
Instances of flash flooding are possible.

Discussion...A cold front analyzed by WPC dropping slowly across
southern Arkansas will continue to drift into Louisiana tonight.
The tail end of this front will continue to provide the impetus
for ascent through low-level convergence, aided by a subtle
shortwave dropping concurrently within the general weak northerly
flow regime. Moisture across the region is being channeled ahead
of the front and is analyzed by the SPC RAP to be above 2 inches
even in the pre-convective airmass, with GPS measurements
approaching 2.3 inches within convection. This extreme PW is
overlapping MUCAPE that is still 2000-3000 J/kg despite SBCIN,
supporting the regenerating convection seen over the past two
hours. Rainfall rates have been estimated by local radars to be
above 2.5"/hr, and MRMS 15-min rainfall has been as high as 0.8"
in a few areas (above 3"/hr measured rainfall rates).

The CAMs are struggling to resolve the current activity which is
both much more intense and widespread than progs would suggest.
With the front in place, aided by the weak shortwave energy aloft,
and modest 700mb convergence, it has become more likely that
thunderstorms will persist well after dark. This is despite a lack
of bulk shear keeping storms of the pulse variety, but outflow
boundary collisions and storm mergers in response to the
widespread nature will support additional development. With storm
motions generally slow and chaotic, and with some upstream
development also possible as propagation vectors collapse to 5 kts
and orient obliquely right of the mean wind, these intense
rainfall rates (3"/hr at times continuing) could produce 2-3" of
rain, with isolated higher amounts possible. This is in addition
to rain that has already fallen.

FFG across the area is quite elevated, generally 3-4"/3 hrs and
even 2-3"/1hr. While HREF exceedance probabilities are modest,
less than 10%, this is clearly under-forecasting the true risk.
Additionally, with rainfall rates as intense as they have been,
and with these likely to continue, 15-min rainfall of 0.75-1 inch
in some areas could quickly overwhelm soils to become runoff
despite the elevated FFG. For this reason, any storms that
continue until full convective overturning later tonight could
produce instances of flash flooding.

Areas affected...portions of central through southeast Texas and
southwestern Louisiana

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

Valid 211809Z - 220009Z

Summary...Scattered to numerous thunderstorm activity will pose an
isolated flash flood risk through 00Z/7p CDT this evening.

Discussion...Strong insolation/destabilization and the presence of
several meso-to-synoptic surface boundaries across the discussion
area has resulted in an uptick in coverage of thunderstorms over
the past half hour. The storms are in a very moist/buoyant
airmass characterized by 2+ inch PW values and 1000-2000 J/kg
MLCAPE values, favoring the eventual development of heavy rainfall
rates as storms mature. Additionally, storms are in a very weakly
sheared environment, with minimal steering flow aloft supporting
slow/erratic cell movement. Areas of 2 inch/hr rain rates are
expected at times through the afternoon hours, which poses an
isolated flash flood threat.

FFG thresholds are generally in the 2-3 inch/hr range (locally
lower near urban areas near Austin/San Antonio and Houston. These
thresholds and the pulse-type nature of the convection suggests
that any flash flood threat will be relatively isolated and
focused on urban and sensitive/low-lying areas. The bulk of the
threat should be diurnally driven and exhibit a slow southward
propagation toward coastal areas through 00Z/7p CDT.

Areas affected...southern/central Utah

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

Valid 211849Z - 220049Z

Summary...Scattered convection has the potential for brief heavy
rain and an isolated flash flood threat through the afternoon
hours.

Discussion...Radar/satellite imagery indicates scattered
thunderstorm developing along favored ridge lines in south-central
Utah recently. These storms are in a relatively dry low-level
environment (35-50F surface dewpoint depressions). Nevertheless,
presentation on radar and mid-level moisture representations via
satellite suggest that the environment may be a bit more
moist/unstable aloft than suggested by mesoanalyses (depicting
0.8-0.9 inch PW and minimal instability). The observational
trends are also suggestive of brief heavy rainfall potential
across the region, with a quick 0.5 inch of precipitation possible
on an isolated basis with the strongest cells. These outflow
driven storms will tend to propagate slowly northward over the
course of the afternoon, but may produce heavy rain across
terrain-favored low-lying areas/slot-canyons and burn scars.=20

Isolated instances of flash flooding are possible given the
aforementioned scenario. This diurnally driven threat should
persist through 01Z/7p MDT.

Areas affected...Southern Appalachians

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

Valid 211845Z - 220045Z

Summary...Slow moving showers and thunderstorms will expand across
portions of the Southern Appalachians through this evening.
Rainfall rates at times may reach 3"/hr which could overwhelm
soils, especially in sensitive terrain. Flash flooding is possible.

Discussion...The GOES-E experimental day-cloud phase micro-physics
RGB this afternoon shows a rapid uptick in ice-bearing clouds
suggestive of strengthening updrafts into Cbs from NW NC through
central GA. These updrafts are associated with deepening
convection, and there has been a recent uptick in lightning
detection within these storms. This suggests that the environment
is becoming increasingly favorable for thunderstorms containing
heavy rain, as thermodynamics continues to intensify reflected by
PWs measured by GPS between 1.6 and 1.9 inches, around the 90th
percentile for the date, overlapped with MUCAPE as much as 3000
J/kg. Despite the relatively recent growth across the area,
radar-estimated rainfall rates have already exceeded 1.5"/hr
according to KGSP.

As the aftn progresses, the CAMs are in decently good agreement in
both coverage and placement of activity. It appears likely that
convection will become widespread as PWs surge to above 2" outside
of the higher terrain. This will support rain rates within
thunderstorms that will likely exceed 2"/hr (HREF neighborhood
probabilities above 30%) and may reach 3"/hr at times as reflected
by HRRR 15-min rainfall above 0.75" in a few locations. Storms
that develop will be of the pulse variety in response to limited
bulk shear, but will also move very slowly on 0-6km mean winds of
just around 5 kts. This indicates that despite the relatively
short lifetimes expected of any individual cell, total rainfall
could reach 2-3" in some areas, and this will be most likely where
any boundary collisions, storm mergers, or terrain influences can
impact the relative strength and motion of these storms.

Soil moisture across the Southern Appalachians is generally well
above normal as reflected by NASA SPoRT 0-10cm percentiles that
exceed 98% in many areas. This has reduced 1-hr FFG to as low as
1-1.5" in some areas, for which the HREF exceedance probabilities
peak above 25%. This is in addition to the general sensitivity
across this area due to the terrain, as well as within any urban
areas, so any slow moving thunderstorm could produce impacts due
to flash flooding through this evening.

Areas affected...Far northern FL hrough southwest SC including
much of eastern GA

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

Valid 212110Z - 220300Z

Summary...Showers and thunderstorms will expand across eastern
Georgia through this evening. Rainfall rates of 2-3"/hr are
expected, which through slow storm motions could produce 2-4" of
rain. This may result in instances of flash flooding.

Discussion...The regional radar mosaic this afternoon shows
widespread showers and thunderstorms across much of Georgia, with
a slow expansion in coverage noted as far south as FL and east as
SC. This activity is blossoming primarily in response to a weak
low-level convergence axis noted in surface observations and 850mb
analysis, with weak directional divergence at 300mb contributing
ascent. Storms that have developed are generally pulse in nature
due to weak bulk shear, and the resulting outflows/storm mergers
are producing additional convective development.

The thermodynamic environment in the Southeast remains extremely
favorable for heavy rainfall, and is forecast to become even more
impressive though the evening. PWs as measured by GPS are around
2.1 inches, around the 90th percentile for the date, and
corresponding MUCAPE is analyzed by the SPC RAP to be around 3000
J/kg. These robust thermodynamics are supporting heavy rainfall
rates in the ongoing convection, as reflected by radar-estimated
rain rates as much as 1.5-2"/hr and MRMS measured 15-min rainfall
locally above 0.75". As PWs continue to surge to as much as 2.25
inches later this evening, these prolific rainfall rates will
likely persist, and may even intensify, as HREF 2"/hr neighborhood probabilities peak above 35% by 01Z coincident with more
widespread 0.75"/15min rainfall (3+"/hr rates) from the HRRR.

Numerous thunderstorms are expected to develop as forecast by most
available high-res CAMs, and these should move slowly in response
to weak 0-6km mean layer winds of just 5-10 kts, with at times
chaotic motion driven by collisions/mergers leading to repeating,
training, or prolonged cells. Where this occurs, total rainfall of
2-4" is possible as supported by both HREF and REFS 3"/6hr
probabilities peaking at 40-60%.

Although storms will move across soils that have some infiltration
capacity and FFG that is generally 3"/3hrs, the slow motion of
these intense rates could still overwhelm soils to produce rapid
runoff. If this occurs across any urban areas, or even if less
vulnerable regions experience multiple slow moving cells, this FFG
could be exceeded leading to instances of flash flooding.

838 PM EDT Thu Aug 21 2025

Areas affected...Southern Arizona

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

Valid 220037Z - 220600Z

Summary...Showers and thunderstorms along the Mogollon Rim will
drop southwest through this evening while additional storms
develop downstream. Rainfall rates of up to 1"/hr are expected,
which could result in flash flooding.

Discussion...The regional radar mosaic this aftn shows that
convection has expanded along the Mogollon Rim, and storms are
beginning to shift southwest off of the terrain. Although storm
motions have been generally slow and tied to the terrain features
thus far, anti-cyclonic flow around the large ridge of high
pressure centered near the Four Corners will cause progression of
these storms into the lower elevations. At the same time, a weak
convergence axis noted in low-level wind fields is collocated with
a plume of elevated MUCAPE above 1000 J/kg, which will support
additional thunderstorm development. This instability is paired
with PWs that were measured via the 00Z U/A sounding at KTUS to be
around 1.3 inches, or the 75th percentile for the date. This will
support at least brief heavy rain rates through the next several
hours.

So far, storms have been slow to move off the terrain, but this
will change as the 0-6km mean winds increase to 10-15 kts from the
E/NE. At the same time, a ribbon of modest but elevated bulk shear
of 20-25 kts is progged to surge across southern Arizona, and this
will support persistence of these storms as they track SW. At the
same time, additional convection is likely to develop as more
isolated storms in the lower elevations, and the interaction of
these cells could briefly pulse rainfall rates up to above 1"/hr
as progged by HREF neighborhood probabilities reaching 10-20%
between 01Z-04Z. Additionally, the HRRR forced UA WRF depicts
isolated 0.75"/1hr rain accumulations, further indicative of the
potential rain intensities within the favorable thermodynamics.

A notable inverted-V signature in the KTUS sounding combined with
impressive DCAPE and the increasing forward motion of cells from
the terrain indicates that wind, rather than rain, may be the
primary threat this evening, and explains the modest HREF
exceedance probabilities for 1"/6hrs that peak around 30%.
However, the intensity of this rainfall could still overwhelm the
soils, especially given the general vulnerability of this region
due to currently dry soils (NASA SPoRT 0-10cm soil moisture below
the 10th percentile). Although the risk appears generally
isolated, any heavy rain moving atop sensitive terrain, burn
scars, or urban areas could result in flash flood impacts through
the evening.

Mesoscale Precipitation Discussion 0970
NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD
925 PM EDT Thu Aug 21 2025

Areas affected...Coastal Plain from the Middle TX Coast through
South-Central LA

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

Valid 220125Z - 220630Z

Summary...Showers and thunderstorms will continue to develop and
move slowly along the TX/LA coasts this evening. Rainfall rates
may at times reach 4"/hr, which could cause 2-3" of rain with
locally higher amounts and instances of flash flooding.

Discussion...The regional radar mosaic this evening shows an
expansion of very slow moving thunderstorms aligned near the Gulf
Coast from far SW LA through near San Antonio Bay, TX. This
activity is blossoming in response to convergent ascent as
low-level north winds over the land intersect east winds on the
coast. This convergence is occurring beneath an elongated
mid-level trough axis with subtly steeper lapse rates, providing
additional ascent to the area. PWs measured on the KCRP and KLCH
were around 2.1 inches, near the 90th percentile for the date,
which is overlapping with MUCAPE of more than 2000 J/kg to produce
an impressive thermodynamic environment. This environment is
supporting radar-estimated rainfall rates from KHGX that have been
2.5-3"/hr this evening.

Although the CAMs feature a high variability in placement of heavy
rain, there is good agreement that heavy rain amounts will occur
during the next few hours. Moisture convergence along the coast
may elevate PWs to 2.25 to 2.5 inches, supporting even more
intense rain rates as forcing for ascent persists. This suggests
that even with loss of daytime instability, the elevated MUCAPE
will support intense rainfall, for which the HREF neighborhood
probabilities forecast a 40-60% chance of exceeding 2"/hr, with
brief rates reaching 4"/hr possible as suggested by the HRRR
15-min rain accumulation product showing up to 1".

While these rates themselves could be sufficient to overwhelm
soils and lead to rapid runoff, the storms containing this intense
rain will also be very slow moving to potentially prolong this
prolific rainfall. 0-6km mean winds of just 5 kts will cause
storms to drift generally to the east, but a lack of bulk shear
indicating pulse-type convection will also result in chaotic
motion during storm mergers and boundary collisions. This could
lengthen the duration of heavy rain, or cause multiple rounds, in
a few areas, leading to amounts that could reach 2-3" or locally
higher (HREF and REFS probabilities for 3"/6hrs over 30%).

FFG across the region is elevated at generally 3-4"/3hrs for which
exceedance probabilities are modest. Despite this, at least
isolated instances of flash flooding appear possible due to the
intensity of this rain, with the most likely impacts occurring
should any storm linger over more urban areas.

NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD
1231 AM EDT Fri Aug 22 2025

Areas affected...west-central VA/NC into surrounding portions of
WV/SC

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

Valid 220430Z - 221000Z

Summary...Slow moving, highly efficient heavy rainfall with rates
up to 2-3"/hr will maintain a flash flood risk overnight.
Localized totals of 5"+ may lead to isolated instances of
significant, life threatening flash flooding.

Discussion...As Hurricane Erin continues to move eastward over the
open seas of the western North Atlantic, the storm seems to be
indirectly contributing to a much more localized heavy rainfall
event over portions of eastern VA into the eastern Carolinas. A
massive anticyclonic wave break (AWB) is quite apparent over the
western North Atlantic (characterized by low-PV air aloft injected
from the tropics), contributing significantly to a blocked
upper-level pattern/jet stream aloft. This blocking aloft has
resulted in weak steering flow from the surface to the mid-upper
levels with only a very weak/subtle trough apparent in the
mid-levels (along with effective bulk shear of less than 20 kts).
However, a PV (potential vorticity) streamer aloft (~250-300 mb)
is associated with a narrow 40-50 kt jet streak (that is crucially quasi-stationary due the diabatically educed blocking from Erin)
which has allowed for broad top-down driven ascent. Pockets of
slow moving convection resulting from this upper-level feature
(along with the other necessary components for heavy rainfall,
including a pocket of deep tropospheric moisture with PWs of
1.4-2.0" and MLCAPE of 500-1000 J/kg) are continuing to produce
localized rainfall rates up to 2-3"/hr.

Going forward, the slow southward propagation of convection is
likely to continue (towards the pool of higher surface thetaE and
associated MLCAPE 1000+ J/kg) with the 00z HREF mean storm motions appropriately indicating 10-15 kt S-SSW storm motions. While
localized redevelopment further north cannot be ruled out in the
neat term (as lingering instability still exists over portions of
WV/VA that already received significantly locally heavy rainfall
earlier), the threat going forward is certainly greatest for areas
farther south (including Charlotte, NC and surrounding portions of
NC/SC) where HREF probabilities for 3" and 5" exceedance are as
high as 40-50% and 20-30%, respectively (which corresponds with
25-35% probs for Flash Flood Guidance exceedance and up to 10%
probs of 100-yr ARI exceedance). Isolated to scattered instances
of flash flooding are possible, and localized totals of 5"+ may
lead to isolated instances of significant, life threatening flash
flooding (with particular concern for these totals occurring in
more sensitive portions of the greater Charlotte metropolitan
area).

Areas affected...central and eastern SD into some adjacent
portions of MN

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

Valid 220600Z - 221200Z

Summary...Training and repeating of very heavy rainfall (up to
2-4"/hr rates) may lead to isolated to scattered instances of
flash flooding overnight.

Discussion...Discrete convection is beginning to backbuild and
proliferate this evening, in the vicinity of a sharp baroclinic
zone with strong low-level frontogenesis. The mesoscale
environment is otherwise characterized by MLCAPE of 1000-2500
J/kg, PWs of 1.2-1.5" (near the 90th percentile, per ABR sounding
climatology), and effective bulk shear of 35-45 kts. While
steering flow is relatively strong at 20-30 kts towards the ESE
with Corfidi vectors favoring southward propagation, current
storms are anchored in the boundary layer near where low-level
convergence is maximized with backbuilding towards the west
favoring training/repeating of very heavy rainfall (with MRMS
estimates indicating rates as high as 2-4"/hr).

Latest hi-res guidance (00z HREF suite) is in remarkably good
agreement with regard to the spatial axis of heavy rainfall,
located in excellent proximity to where convection has
proliferated. While the guidance is not in as good agreement with
regard to the intensity of convection, the HREF does still
indicate the extreme potential well with probabilities for 3" and
5" exceedance of 40-50% and 5-10%, respectively (with the 00z ARW2
and NAM-nest being the most aggressive in depicting 3-5" totals,
along with some recent hourly runs of the experimental RRFS).
Isolated to scattered instances of flash flooding are possible
(with 3-hr FFGs generally ranging from 1.5-2.5" and associated
HREF FFG exceedance probs of 30-40%), though impacts to life and
property will likely be rather limited given how rural/sparsely
populated the region is.

Areas affected...portions of South Carolina, eastern Georgia, and
far northeastern Florida

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding likely

Valid 221552Z - 222152Z

Summary...Scattered, slow-moving storms will increase in coverage
through the afternoon, with areas of 2-3 inch/hr rain rates
becoming likely. Flash flooding is expected, especially in
urban/low-lying areas.

Discussion...Scattered, shallow convection has persisted across
much of central South Carolina this morning downstream of a weak
mid-level trough along the southern Appalachians. Over the past
hour or so, deeper, more intense convection has materialized
mainly along weak front extending from southern Georgia
east-northeastward near the South Carolina coastline. The deeper
convection has materialized in a very favorable environment for
heavy rainfall (2-2.3 inch PW values, 1500+ J/kg MLCAPE, weak
steering flow aloft). Areas of 2-3 inch/hr rain rates have
materialized near the Charleston Metro area (including 0.9 inch in
15 minutes at WFO Charleston and 2.25 inches in 30 minutes at KCHS
recently).

Over time, convection is expected to deepen and expand in coverage
across the discussion area as surface heating promotes continued destabilization along with convergence along the aforementioned
front. Heavy rain may also concentrate along any subtle
sea-breeze boundaries that develop along the Georgia and Florida
coastlines. Additional areas of 2-3 inch/hr rain rates are
expected that should promote inundation especially in
sensitive/urban locales. Convection should also be slow-moving
given the relatively weak kinematics for steering flow aloft. FFG
thresholds vary across the discussion area and peak at around 3
inches/hr in less-sensitive spots, although these rates could
still be exceeded occasionally given the moisture-rich environment
in place supporting convective activity. Several instances of
flash flooding are likely in this scenario.

Areas affected...southeast Texas, southwestern Louisiana

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding likely

Valid 221611Z - 222211Z

Summary...Slow-moving convection continues to expand in coverage
this morning, with areas of 2-3 inch/hr rain rates becoming likely
beneath the strongest storms. Flash flooding is expected.

Discussion...Deep convection has been focused mainly along coastal
areas of Texas and Louisiana for most of the morning. Over the
past hour or so, storms has materialized just inland across the
discussion area (nearer to I-10) due to 1) strong surface heating/destabilization, 2) abundant moisture (2.3 inch PW), and
3) convergence along a weak front across the region (generally
from Houston Metro east to Baton Rouge, LA). Kinematics/steering
flow aloft are very weak (<5 knots), suggestive of slow-moving
cells/clusters that are outflow dominant and propagate erratically
through the afternoon. A few of these clusters were forming near
Lake Charles and just north of Houston while already producing
spots of 1-2 inch/hr rain rates.

With continued surface heating, convective clusters are expected
to expand in coverage. The orientation of storms relative to
outflow from prior activity over the Gulf suggests potential for
several cell mergers as well. 2-3 inch/hr rain rates will
eventually materialize, and may impact populated/flashy urban
centers such as Lake Charles, Beaumont, and Houston through 20Z.=20
FFGs near those areas are as low as 1-1.5 inches/hr and should be
readily exceeded. Surrounding areas have higher FFGs (in the 3
inch/hr range) that should still be exceeded as stronger
convection develops through the morning and early afternoon.=20
Areas of flash flooding are expected given the developing scenario.

Areas affected...southeastern Louisiana, coastal areas of
Mississippi, far southern Alabama

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

Valid 221659Z - 222259Z

Summary...Spotty/isolated flash flood potential exists with
slow-moving thunderstorms across the discussion area through
22Z/4p CDT.

Discussion...Recent satellite imagery indicates deepening
convection along a variety of subtle low-level confluence
boundaries across the discussion area. Surface heating across the
region has enabled development of 4000 J/kg SBCAPE in the
pre-convective airmass amid 2.2 inch PW values. Deep, efficient
convective process are already supporting spots of 1 inch/hr rain
rates (estimated per MRMS). Additional areas of 1-2 inch/hr rain
rates should develop through the afternoon as additional cells
develop and mergers begin to occur.

The rainfall will occur on locally sensitive areas due to
urbanized/hydrophobic surfaces in/near New Orleans, Baton Rouge,
and Northshore Lake Pontchartrain near Covington and Slidell.=20
Isolated instances of flash flooding will become more probable
during the afternoon hours.

Much of the convective (and flash flood) threat will be diurnally
driven today, although the degree of convective overturning will
ultimately modulate the spatiotemporal threat of the flash flood
risk through 22Z/4p CDT. Eventually, widespread low-level
stabilization should result in a lower flash flood threat,
although this scenario should take a few hours to play out.

Mesoscale Precipitation Discussion 0976
NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD
500 PM EDT Fri Aug 22 2025

Areas affected...Far Eastern CA...Southern NV...Central to
Northwest AZ...Central and Southwest UT

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

Valid 222100Z - 230300Z

SUMMARY...Scattered monsoonal showers and thunderstorms are
expected going through the afternoon and early evening hours
across portions of the Southwest U.S. Some localized concerns for
flash flooding will exist for the more sensitive slot canyon
locations and burn scar areas.

DISCUSSION...The early-afternoon GOES-W visible satellite imagery
shows a substantial CU/TCU field over the Mogollon Rim of central
to northwest AZ and also across much of southwest UT where a
combination of orographics along with diurnally enhanced
instability and the presence of monsoonal moisture are working to
initiate additional areas of convection. Already there are
scattered small-scale clusters of locally heavy showers and
thunderstorms where differential boundaries and nearby
terrain-induced circulations have been helping to initiate and
locally concentrate pockets of convection.

Early day cloud cover has locally helped to mitigate the level of
surface-based instability, but satellite trends show substantial
heating occurring over much of central to northwest AZ and into
southwest UT which should help to facilitate additional scattered
areas of showers and thunderstorms over the next several hours.
There is also proximity of an MCV near the CA/AZ/NV border region,
and differential heating along the eastern and northern flanks of
this energy and associated cloud canopy may also help drive
convective initiation this afternoon.

The region is relatively moist today with PW anomalies coming in
as high as 1.5 standard deviations above normal in close proximity
to a 700 mb high center. CIRA-ALPW data generally shows some of
the greater moisture concentrations in the 700/500 mb layer and
this will help to support some relatively efficient convection for
heavier rainfall rates.

Some rainfall rates may reach as high as 1 inch in 20 to 30
minutes with the stronger cells, with some spotty rainfall totals
through this evening reaching as high as 1.5 to 2.5 inches where
any cells tend to become anchored near areas of higher terrain.
Some of the RRFS/REFS guidance supports this which seems plausible
given the satellite and radar trends. This may result in there
being localized areas of flash flooding. There are some sensitive
burn scar concerns (especially over northern AZ) along with the
normally sensitive slot canyon locations (southwest to
south-central UT) that are vulnerable to any high rainfall rate
activity, so these areas should be closely monitored.

NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD
555 PM EDT Fri Aug 22 2025

Areas affected...Eastern CO

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

Valid 222155Z - 230355Z

SUMMARY...Showers and thunderstorms should gradually expand in
coverage this evening. Some cell-merger and cell-training concerns
may cause some isolated areas of flash flooding.

DISCUSSION...The latest GOES-E IR satellite imagery shows cooling
convective tops near the Front Range and Palmer Divide which are
expected to gradually grow upscale a bit this evening with some
gradual consolidation into some loosely organized MCS activity
over eastern CO this evening. The convection is forming in close
proximity to a stationary front with the additional aid of
orographic ascent/forcing within a moderately unstable environment.

Much of the instability pool is along and just north of the front
in this case with MLCAPE values across north-central to northeast
CO as high as 1500 J/kg. This is mainly due to the fact that
surface dew points (locally 55 to 60+) just north of the front are
quite a bit higher than they are to the south out ahead of it.
Weak shortwave energy rounding the top of a mid-level ridge near
the Four Corners region will eject down across eastern CO this
evening and interact with this instability axis and the
aforementioned frontal zone to support the upscale growth of
convection.

A consensus of the latest 12Z HREF/REFS guidance suggests some
spotty areas of 2 to 4 inch rainfall totals will be possible where
some localized cell-merger and cell-training activity occurs. Both
the HREF and REFS depict some low to moderate probabilities
(generally 30 to 50 percent) of seeing the 3-hour FFG values
exceeded this evening as this shower and thunderstorm activity
continues to grow in coverage and intensity. As a result, some
isolated areas of flash flooding will be possible.

630 PM EDT Fri Aug 22 2025

Areas affected...Southern and Eastern GA...SC Lowcountry

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding likely

Valid 222230Z - 230430Z

SUMMARY...Additional areas of very heavy shower and thunderstorm
activity going through the evening hours will maintain a
likelihood for more areas of flash flooding.

DISCUSSION...The late-day GOES-E IR satellite imagery in
conjunction with regional radar shows broken areas of very heavy
shower and thunderstorm activity continuing to impact areas of the
SC Lowcountry on down through eastern and southern GA. A
combination of a stationary front along with multiple mesoscale
outflow boundary collisions within a very moist and unstable
airmass continues to facilitate the ongoing convection, and
additional clusters of convection should continue into the evening
hours.

MLCAPE values are as high as 1500 to 2500 J/kg and this coupled
with PWs of 2.2 to 2.4 inches will drive rainfall rates to locally
still be well into the 2 to 3 inch/hour range with the stronger
storms at least through early this evening.

The additional rainfall footprint this evening will be dictated by
the longevity of the instability pool along the front, but also
mitigated by the proximity of convergent and moist low-level flow
near the front, and with some weak right-entrance region upper jet
forcing overhead.

Recent runs of the experimental WoFS along with the HRRR and RRFS
guidance suggest the convection may linger well into the evening
hours, with some rather heavy additional totals. The steering flow
over the region is also rather weak, and this is supporting slow
cell-motions which with the high rainfall rates will favor some
additional rainfall totals locally reaching 3 to 5 inches. In
fact, the 90th percentile of the 6-hour QPF from the 21Z WoFS run
suggests parts of south-central GA may see additional rainfall
totals locally exceeding 6+ inches.

Given the setup and additional rainfall potential, more areas of
flash flooding are likely to occur going into the evening hours.

713 PM EDT Fri Aug 22 2025

Areas affected...Portions of the Sierra Nevada

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

Valid 222313Z - 230500Z

SUMMARY...Scattered slow-moving areas of showers and thunderstorms
over the Sierra Nevada late this afternoon and early this evening
may cause some localized concerns for flash flooding.

DISCUSSION...The mid-afternoon GOES-W Day Cloud Phase RGB
satellite imagery along with LightningCast data shows convection
initiating and gradually increasing in coverage over portions of
the Sierra Nevada. The convection that is initiating is in
response to strong diurnal heating with increasing instability and terrain-driven circulations in a rather moist monsoonal regime.

SBCAPE values have risen to over 1000 K/kg along the western
flanks of the Sierra Nevada involving eastern CA with surface data
showing modest upslope flow into the higher terrain. The latest
RAP analysis generally suggests about 10 to 15 kts of southerly
flow in the 850/700 mb layer from Lake Tahoe southward down
Bishop.

Coinciding with this is a rather moist mid-level column with
CIRA-ALPW showing elevated moisture in the 700/500 mb layer and
this is supporting PW anomalies across the region of 2.0 to 2.5
standard deviations above normal. Deep layer southerly flow around
the western periphery of the subtropical ridge over the Southwest
U.S. is facilitating the poleward transport of monsoonal moisture
up across these areas, and this is expected to help drive a threat
for scattered heavy shower and thunderstorm activity going through
the evening hours.

Overall, the latest hires model guidance is rather ill-defined
with the convective footprint. However, the satellite and radar
trends suggest concerns for showers and thunderstorms to be
locally anchored near the higher terrain this evening with some
backbuilding characteristics which is further supported by weak
propagation vectors and the orographic focus that is in place for
development.

Rainfall rates with the stronger storms may reach 0.75 to 1.0
inch/hour, with potential for much of this to fall in as little as
30 minutes. Spotty storm totals of 1.5 to 2.5 inches will be
possible where any repeating cell-activity occurs. Given the
setup, some localized areas of flash flooding will be possible
going through this evening, and this will include potential for
some burn scar impacts.

NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD
716 AM EDT Sat Aug 23 2025

Areas affected...coastal areas of South Carolina

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

Valid 231116Z - 231616Z

Summary...Localized areas of flooding are expected over the next
4-6 hours (through 16Z/noon EDT) as convection over the Gulf
Stream slowly migrates inland toward coastal areas of South
Carolina.

Discussion...Recent radar/satellite imagery indicates a fetch of
deep convection along an axis from near Charleston to about 80-100
miles east-southeast of Charleston. The convection was likely
being maintained by several synoptic features, including 1) a
mid-level vorticity maximum over Georgia that was providing ascent
aloft over the region and 2) low-level easterly flow just north of
a weak low near Savannah that was helping to maintain moderate
instability (1000+ J/kg SBCAPE) right along coastal areas. An
abundantly moist airmass (2.3 inch PW) remains in place,
supporting efficient rainfall processes with stronger cells that
develop. Additionally, parts of the region experienced 3-8 inches
of rainfall over the past 24 hours, and onshore flow was
persisting during this morning's high tide, which was likely
resulting in inundation of low-lying coastal areas along with
hindered runoff/drainage.

The ongoing convective trends should continue for the next 4-6
hours. Areas of 1 inch/hr rain rates have began near Charleston
over the past 30 minutes, and these rates should continue
periodically while the convective axis in maintained in the
region. Areas of 2-3 inch rainfall totals are expected. Over
time, the convective axis should drift northward and/or weaken (as
depicted by CAMs), although this process should take several hours
to unfold.

Flooding is possible along coastal areas this morning and could be
enhanced by the locally heavy rainfall that periodially moves
onshore.

934 AM EDT Sat Aug 23 2025

Areas affected...central/southern Georgia

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding likely

Valid 231333Z - 231933Z

Summary...A few instances of flash flooding are expected today
across Georgia. Heavy rainfall, with rain rates approaching 2
inches/hr at times, are expected through 19Z/3p EDT.

Discussion...An axis of shallow, slow-moving convection was
located along subtle low-level confluence zone extending from near
Peachtree City to Sandersville/east of Macon this morning.=20 Ascent/convergence along this axis and the presence of a mid-level
wave aloft has aided in persistence of convection across the
region despite modest amounts of surface-based instability (~500
J/kg). The convection is in an abundantly moist environment (2+
inch PW values), supporting efficient rainfall processes. Spots
of 2 inch/hr rain rates are estimated per MRMS currently, which
isn't surprising given the moist airmass and slow movement of
convection along the convergence axis.

The ongoing scenario for heavy rainfall should persist for a few
hours - and perhaps through 19Z/3p EDT today. SPC mesoanalysis
indicate an axis of deep moist convergence collocated with the
axis of convection that should migrate very slowly or even stall.
Areas of heavy rainfall are expected, and local rainfall totals
exceeding 3-5 inches are possible depending on the persistence of
convection at any one locale. Breaks in the cloud cover south of
this confluence axis suggests that additional convection may
develop and produce heavy rainfall (>1 inch/hr rain rates) that
may also cause flash flood instances - especially in areas that
received 2-5 inches yesterday in/near Macon. Flash flooding is
likely given the aforementioned scenario.

Areas affected...far southern South Carolina, coastal areas of
Georgia

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

Valid 231625Z - 232025Z

Summary...Heavy rainfall will continue to impact coastal areas
near Savannah, GA over the next 3 hours or so. Flash flooding
remains possible, and could be locally enhanced by coastal
flooding/inundation.

Discussion...Although widespread convective overturning has
stabilized much of the state of South Carolina, a small/focused
area of instability resides across far southern portions of the
state and in/near the Savannah, GA area. Weak low-level onshore
flow just north of a low has maintained ~1500 J/kg SBCAPE in that
area. PW values approaching 2.4 inches are also maximized there.
The buoyancy/moisture combo is combining with weak steering flow
aloft to foster deep convection with slow storm motions and
1.5-2.5 inch/hr rain rates currently.

The heavy rainfall continues to migrate inland toward areas that
have experienced high tide earlier this morning and 3-9 inch
rainfall totals over the past 24 hours. Wet soils and onshore
flow should continue to hinder runoff/drainage and - when combined
with heavy rainfall - may continue to pose flood/flash flood risk
over the next 2-4 hours (through 20Z/4p EDT).

Areas affected...Southern and Eastern CA...Sierra Nevada

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding likely

Valid 231837Z - 240037Z

SUMMARY...Deep layer monsoonal moisture advancing up across
southern and eastern CA and into the higher terrain of the Sierra
Nevada will foster scattered to broken areas of heavy showers and
thunderstorms this afternoon. Scattered areas of flash flooding
are likely, and especially over the Sierra Nevada.

DISCUSSION...The deeper layer subtropical ridge over the Southwest
is in a very favorable position to facilitate the northwestward
transport of monsoonal moisture up across southern and eastern CA
and well into the Sierra Nevada. The latest CIRA-ALPW data shows
moisture near or above the 90th percentile of climatology in the
700/500 mb and 500/300 mb layers respectively across the region,
with PW anomalies overall running a solid 2 to 3 standard
deviations above normal.

This moisture coupled with placement of elongated mid-level vort
energy and deeper layer upslope flow over the higher terrain will
combine with increasing boundary layer instability for scattered
to eventually broken areas of heavy shower and thunderstorm
activity. Cloud cover over portions of the Transverse and
Peninsular Ranges of southern CA have mitigated the build up of
instability to a degree, but the proximity of vort energy and
steeper mid-level lapse rates have already been focusing an axis
of showers and thunderstorms. This activity should tend to expand
a bit in coverage as differential heating boundaries and greater
instability adjacent to the terrain help to drive additional
mesoscale-enhanced circulations for new convective development.

The Sierra Nevada overall is the area that will likely see the
greatest concentration of heavier rainfall though given the level
of anomalous moisture in place along with upslope flow. Even the
hires CAM model guidance which can suffer with convective details
over the Sierra Nevada has a footprint for impactful rainfall,
including a signal for locally repeating cell-activity. The most
recent visible satellite imagery along with LightningCast data
shows convective initiation underway and suggestive of multiple
rounds of convective potential in conjunction with the full
diurnal heating cycle.

Given the high moisture environment, rainfall rates up to 1.5
inches/hour will be possible, with some localized storm total
amounts by late this afternoon of 2 to 4 inches possible where any
cells tend to become more terrain-anchored. Scattered areas of
flash flooding are likely with today's convection, with the
greatest threat over the Sierra Nevada where there will also be
some burn scar sensitivities.

Areas affected...southern/southeastern Georgia, southern/coastal
South Carolina, northern Florida

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

Valid 231848Z - 240048Z

Summary...Scattered, slow-moving storms will continue to produce
areas of 1-2.5 inch/hr rain rates at times. Flash flooding is
possible - especially where heavy rain falls on
sensitive/urbanized ground conditions.

Discussion...Flash flood potential continues across much of
southern Georgia and coastal areas of Georgia and South Carolina.
Most of the deep convection was focused along and south of a weak
differential heating and zone currently across central Georgia
from just south of Atlanta through Macon to just north of
Savannah. Along and south of this confluence zone, pockets of
heating with an abundantly moist airmass (2+ inch PW values) has
contributed to scattered development of deep convection. Weak
steering flow aloft has allowed for slow and at times erratic
storm motions along with several mergers, enabling rain rates to
exceed 2 inches/hr at times in a few spots. Some of the heavy
rain was falling on areas experiencing local inundation/poor
drainage due to onshore flow along coastal areas, resulting in
several instances of flooding impacts. In other areas, rainfall
was occurring atop spots of 3-9 inch rainfall totals over the past
24 hours, resulting in wet soils and increased potential for
runoff.

Ongoing convective trends will continue through at least 00Z/8p
EDT tonight, with locally sensitive areas experiencing a continued
threat of heavy rainfall. Several instances of flash flooding are
possible, and local enhancement of flash flood risk from onshore
flow near coastal areas should continue. Modest destabilization
has also occurred along South Carolina coastal areas near
Charleston, and although a lull in deep convective activity has
been observed over the past 1-2 hours, redevelopment of rainfall
(and 1 inch/hr rates) may occur through the evening, renewing the
flash flood risk in that area.

331 PM EDT Sat Aug 23 2025

Areas affected...Central to Southwest UT...Central to Northwest
AZ...Southern NV...Far Eastern CA

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding likely

Valid 231930Z - 240130Z

SUMMARY...Monsoonal moisture entrenched over the Southwest U.S.
will support locally heavy showers and thunderstorms through this
afternoon. Scattered areas of flash flooding will be likely today,
and especially near and around the more sensitive slot canyon and
burn scar locations.

DISCUSSION...A deep layer subtropical ridge near the Four Corners
region has allowed monsoonal moisture to become rather well
entrenced around its western flank over the last couple of days,
with PW anomalies this morning reaching as high as 2 to 3 standard
deviations above normal across far eastern CA up through southern
NV and into far northwest AZ and adjacent areas of central to
southwest UT.

The moisture is quite concentrated in the 700/300 mb layer based
on the latest CIRA-ALPW data and this coupled with orographics and
additional daytime heating/surface-based instability will favor
expanding areas of showers and thunderstorms with elevated
rainfall rates capable of reaching 1.5+ inches/hour. SBCAPE values
of 1000+ J/kg are already noted over portions of central AZ and
also over southern UT where there has also been recent convective
development, and these values should continue to increase in the
near-term.

Given the influence of orographics/terrain-driven circulations and
eventually convectively-driven outflow boundaries, there should be
pockets of locally focused convection where some of the rainfall
totals may reach as high as 2 to 4 inches. This will be supported
by the anomalous moist monsoonal environment that is generally in
place.

These rainfall totals may result in there being enhanced
runoff/debris flow concerns near any burn scar locations, and
portions of northern AZ in particular are notably sensitive due to
recent fire activity. Adjacent areas of southwest to central UT
will also have concerns once again for slot canyon flash flooding
which may be locally significant today. The flash flood threat is
more conditional across southern NV and adjacent areas of far
eastern CA, but in general across the MPD area, scattered areas of
flash flooding are likely going through the afternoon hours as
convection develops and expands in coverage.

356 PM EDT Sat Aug 23 2025

Areas affected...Central and Southern CO...Northern NM

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding likely

Valid 231955Z - 240155Z

SUMMARY...Heavy showers and thunderstorms will continue to expand
in coverage over the next few hours. Scattered areas of flash
flooding will be likely which may include some localized burn scar
impacts.

DISCUSSION...The early-afternoon GOES-W IR satellite imagery shows
broken areas of heavy showers and thunderstorms impacting portions
of central and southern CO on down into northern NM. Additional
expansion of convection is expected over the next few hours as
diurnal heating/instability coupled with very favorable orographic ascent/terrain-induced circulations continues to support vertical
updrafts for convective initiation and sustenance.

MLCAPE values over northern NM and southern CO are locally over
1000+ J/kg and the region is quite moist with PW anomalies of 1.5+
standard deviations above normal. Some mid to high-level monsoonal
moisture wrapping around the northeast flank of the Four Corners
subtropical ridge is contributing to this more anomalous moisture
profile.

The latest hires guidance strongly suggests that some of the
heaviest rainfall this afternoon will tend to be over the Sangre
De Cristo Range where some spotty 2 to 4 inch rainfall totals will
be possible. Both the 12Z HREF and 06Z REFS guidance support these
amounts. Locally heavy rainfall totals are expected though as far
north as central CO by later this afternoon as diurnal heating,
orographics and even some stronger shear profiles help to support
stronger updrafts and locally heavy rainfall rates which may reach
1.5+ inches/hour.

Given the higher rainfall rates and localized storm potential near
the more orographically favored terrain, there will likely be
scattered areas of flash flooding including potential for burn
scar impacts.

501 PM EDT Sat Aug 23 2025

Areas affected...TN Valley...Southern Appalachians

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

Valid 232100Z - 240300Z

SUMMARY...Scattered slow-moving areas of showers and thunderstorms
may pose an isolated threat for flash flooding going through this
evening.

DISCUSSION...The late-afternoon GOES-E GeoColor satellite imagery
shows scattered areas of showers and thunderstorms impacting
portions of the TN Valley and the southern Appalachians with an
emphasis on the Cumberland Plateau.

Moderate buoyancy with MLCAPE values of near 1500 J/kg coupled
with modest moisture convergence near the terrain should help
sustain the convective threat through early this evening. PWs are
seasonably moist with values of 1.5 to 1.75 inches and this
coupled with the available instability will support rainfall rates
reaching as high as 1.5 to 2.5 inches/hour with the stronger
storms.

Overall, a lack of shear should keep the convection in pulse mode
through the remainder of the afternoon and evening. However, with
weak steering currents and the orographic focus of the activity
near areas of higher terrain, there may be sufficient persistence
of convection locally to yield some spotty rainfall totals of 2 to
4 inches.

The FFG values across portions of far southwest VA down through
eastern TN are relatively low, and the 12Z HREF/06Z REFS suite of
guidance shows some low to moderate probabilities (20 to 50
percent) of seeing the 3-hour FFG values exceeded going through
this evening. This suggests a threat for isolated areas of flash
flooding with these pulse areas of convection.

635 PM EDT Sat Aug 23 2025

Areas affected...Sierra Nevada

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding likely

Valid 232235Z - 240330Z

SUMMARY...Locally heavy showers and thunderstorms will continue
into the evening hours along the foothills and near the crest of
the Sierra Nevada. Scattered areas of flash flooding are likely
which will include localized burn scar impacts.

DISCUSSION...GOES-W IR satellite imagery shows expanding and
cooling convective tops across the Sierra Nevada along with some
of the adjacent foothills. The convection is being strongly aided
by orographic ascent/upslope flow into the terrain coupled with
increasingly divergent flow aloft and an anomalously moist
monsoonal moisture flow pattern.

SBCAPE values of 500 to 1000 J/kg are noted along the western
slopes of the Sierra Nevada with some modest effective bulk shear
in place of 20 to 30 kts. The latest RAP analysis along with IR
satellite imagery shows evidence of a weak upper-level jet streak
lifting north up across the Central Valley of CA which is favoring
some divergent and resulting diffluent flow structures aloft.

This subtle uptick in deeper layer ascent along with the ongoing
orographic and thermodynamic support should favor additional
rounds of heavy showers and thunderstorms near the high terrain
going into the evening hours. Rainfall rates will be capable of
reaching 1 to 1.5 inches/hour given PWs running locally in the
95th+ percentile of climatology and with the aid of upslope flow.

Additional rainfall totals of 2 to 3 inches will be possible
locally through this evening where any repeating cell-activity
occurs, and this will continue to favor a likelihood for scattered
areas of flash flooding. This will include localized burn scar
impacts.

920 PM EDT Sat Aug 23 2025

Areas affected...Coastal SC/GA

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

Valid 240120Z - 240720Z

SUMMARY...New bands of heavy showers and a few thunderstorms may
focus along coastal areas of SC and GA overnight bringing a new
threat of flash flooding.

DISCUSSION...The early to mid-evening satellite imagery along with
surface data shows an area of low pressure beginning to take shape
along a frontal zone just off the SC/GA coast. This area of low
pressure is forecast tonight to gradually lift off to the
northeast, but be not far offshore of the SC Lowcountry. The
latest suite of guidance including the evening runs of the
experimental WoFS suggest the low center becoming better defined
and strengthening a tad along the front which should facilitate an
increase in low-level moisture convergence back into the coastal
areas of SC and GA.

An instability gradient along with an inverted surface trough is
already noted along the coast, and radar imagery is showing a new
band of warm-topped convection advancing westward back into some
of the coastal areas of the SC Lowcountry, with some separate
slow-moving cells over far eastern GA.

The recent runs of the WoFS have been trending toward somewhat
greater concentrations of warm-topped convection along the coast
over the next several hours with a trend toward somewhat heavier
rainfall totals. Some of the recent HRRR guidance has also
exhibited a similar trend.

Given the highly tropical environment with PWs of 2.2 to 2.4
inches, the rainfall will be very efficient with some of these
warm-topped convective bands capable of rates reaching 2+
inches/hour. A localized concern for cell-training will exist as
well, and thus some additional rainfall totals of as much as 3 to
5 inches cannot be ruled out overnight right along the immediate
coast.

Additional areas of flash flooding for the coastal communities
will be possible as a result, and especially with the already
saturated soil conditions and concerns locally with tidal
flooding/inundation.

242 PM EDT Sun Aug 24 2025

Areas affected...eastern Utah, western Colorado

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

Valid 241841Z - 250041Z

Summary...Robust convective development is occurring ahead of a
weak disturbance over northeastern Utah. Areas of rain rates
reaching 1 inch/hr are possible. Flash flooding could occur -
especially near burn scars and other low-lying, sensitive areas.

Discussion...Recent radar/satellite imagery depicts a localized
areas of robust thunderstorm development near/just south of
Meeker, CO. The storms are being supporting by 1) a quickly
destabilizing airmass (around 1000 J/kg SBCAPE), 2) anomalously
moist PW values (near 1 inch), and ascent from a weak mid-level
disturbance over northeastern UT/southwestern WY. Mean wind
fields aloft are fairly weak, allowing ongoing convection to
exhibit only slow eastward motions. Meanwhile, ground conditions
are supporting runoff with only 0.5-1.0 inch/hr FFG thresholds
and, with burn scars noted across the region representing enhanced
runoff potential.

Most of the convection across the discussion area should be
diurnally driven today. Convective coverage will continue to
increase through peak heating hours, and slow movement/cell
mergers should all support local FFG exceedance/1 inch/hr rain
rates at times beneath the deepest convection. The flash flood
risk should be highest near burn scars and
low-lying/terrain-favored areas. Flash flood potential should
persist through at least 00Z/6p MDT this evening on an isolated
basis.

300 PM EDT Sun Aug 24 2025

Areas affected...Sierra Nevada...Western Nevada

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding likely

Valid 241900Z - 250100Z

SUMMARY...Deep layer monsoonal moisture entrenched across large
areas of the Southwest and into the Great Basin will favor showers
and thunderstorms through this afternoon with locally high
rainfall rates. Scattered areas of flash flooding will be likely
which include potential impacts to burn scar locations.

DISCUSSION...The deeper layer subtropical ridge near the Four
Corners region remains in a conducive position to drive and
sustain the transport of monsoonal moisture up across southern and
eastern CA including the Sierra Nevada and adjacent areas of the
Great Basin. The latest CIRA-ALPW data shows moisture near or
above the 90th percentile of climatology in the 700/500 mb and
500/300 mb layers respectively, with the 12Z RAOB sounding at KREV
(Reno, NV) showing an impressive PW of 0.98 which is near a record
for the date.

This moisture coupled with placement of mid-level vort energy near
the western foothills of the central Sierra Nevada and modest
deeper upslope flow over the higher terrain will combine with
increasing boundary layer instability for scattered to eventually
broken areas of heavy shower and thunderstorm activity once again
for this afternoon. The latest GOES-W Day Cloud Phase RGB
satellite imagery along with LightningCast data suggests CI
(convective initiation) is imminent along the terrain of the
Sierra Nevada.

Convection is also expected to develop farther east across the
plateau areas of western NV to the east of the terrain where there
will also be a combination of orographics and diurnal heating
within this very moist monsoon pattern to support locally heavy
showers and thunderstorms.

Given the high moisture environment, rainfall rates up to 1.5
inches/hour will be possible, with some localized storm total
amounts by late this afternoon of 2 to 4 inches possible where any
cells tend to become more terrain-focused. Scattered areas of
flash flooding are likely going through this afternoon, and there
will be localized concerns for burn scar impacts.

Areas affected...northwestern Arizona, southern Utah, and
southeastern Nevada

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding likely

Valid 241903Z - 250103Z

Summary...Scattered thunderstorms are quickly expanding in
coverage across the Colorado River Valley and vicinity. The
storms are in a favorable environment for localized rain rates
exceeding 1 inch per hour. Flash flooding is likely - especially
in terrain-favored areas and near burn scars.

Discussion...Recent satellite/lightning data indicates a distinct
increase in convective activity across terrain-favored ridgelines
in northwestern Arizona and south-central Utah over the past hour.
The storms are forming in response to 1) strong
insolation/destabilization across the area, with MLCAPE values
exceeding 1000 J/kg, 2) anomalously high moisture content (PW
values as high as 1.4 inch), and 3) very subtle mid-level
vorticity maxima rotating northward along the western periphery of
a stout mid/upper ridge near the Four Corners region. Wind fields
aloft were strong enough to favor slow northward storm motions
(around 10-15 knots). Despite these storm motions, localized
backbuilding (evident per radar/MRMS) and overall convective
intensity has still supported local instances of rain rates
reaching 1 inch/hr at times.

These rain rates should occur across locally sensitive ground
conditions resulting from several burn scars. Slot canyons in
southern Utah and vicinity area also at risk of locally heavy rain
rates. As convection continues to mature and expand in coverage,
several instances of flash flooding are expected.

Most of the convection should be diurnally driven, with model
guidance suggestive of flash flood potential existing through at
least 01Z/7p MDT.

Areas affected...Southern CO...Northern NM

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

Valid 241945Z - 250045Z

SUMMARY...Heavy showers and thunderstorms developing and expanding
in coverage across southern CO and northern NM will pose a threat
for isolated to scattered areas of flash flooding going into the
early evening hours. The area burn scar locations and normally dry
washes will be most susceptible to impacts.

DISCUSSION...Convective initiation is well underway across the
high country of southern CO and down into northern NM, with
locally heavy shower and thunderstorm activity in particular
beginning to focus over and near the Sangre De Cristo Range.

MLCAPE values along the CO/NM border have locally increased to
over 1000 J/kg and this coupled with deeper layer concentrations
of monsoonal moisture and orographic ascent near the terrain
should favor an additional expansion of convection over the next
several hours.

Facilitating some of the convective potential today will also be
proximity of a well-defined mid-level vort center over northwest
NM which should drift slowly off to the east over the next several
hours. This energy coupled with the orographic nature of the
convection may foster some smaller scale enhancement to the
convection with locally enhanced rainfall totals.

Rainfall rates of as much as 1 to 2 inches/hour are generally
expected with the stronger convective cells, and with relatively
slow cell-motions, there may be some totals by early this evening
of 2 to 3+ inches. These rains will foster concerns for isolated
to scattered areas of flash flooding, and primarily involving the
more sensitive burn scar locations and normally dry washes.

Areas affected...Northern PA...Southern and Central NY

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

Valid 242255Z - 250345Z

SUMMARY...A few bands of heavy showers and thunderstorms may be
capable of locally training over the same area this evening. This
coupled with high rainfall rates may yield at least an isolated
threat of flash flooding.

DISCUSSION...The latest surface analysis shows a cold front
gradually making progress into the northern Mid-Atlantic and
Northeast as an upper-level trough digs across the Great Lakes and
OH Valley. The airmass ahead of this cold front is moderately
unstable with MLCAPE values of 1000 to 1500 J/kg, and is
seasonably moist with PWs of 1.3 to 1.5 inches.

This coupled with some relatively strong moisture convergence
along the front and favorable upper-level forcing/divergence
should support multiple bands of rather heavy showers and
thunderstorms across portions of northern PA through southern and
central NY through this evening.

Radar imagery already shows a couple of linearly oriented bands
showing some organization and exhibiting some cell-training
characteristics across portions of southern NY. There is some
modest effective bulk shear in place that should tend to favor at
least some broken multicell bands of convection through
mid-evening until the cold front can advance more progressively
through the area.

Rainfall rates with the current activity are locally on the order
of 1 to 2 inches/hour, and the 18Z HREF along with recent HRRR
solutions suggest sufficient levels of cell-training to foster
some 2 to 4 inch rainfall totals through mid-evening.

These rains will foster concerns for some isolated areas of flash
flooding as a result.

Areas affected...Central to Southeast CO...Far Northeast
NM...Southwest KS...OK/TX Panhandles

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

Valid 242350Z - 250550Z

SUMMARY...Clusters of heavy showers and thunderstorms will likely
grow upscale with time this evening across portions of the central
High Plains. Cell-merger activity and locally high rainfall rates
will pose a threat for isolated to scattered areas of flash
flooding.

DISCUSSION...The late-day GOES-E IR satellite imagery shows
clusters of cold-topped convection continuing to evolve over
central to southeast CO and down through far northeast NM as
moist/convergent and unstable low-level flow focuses along a
quasi-stationary front draped from the OK/TX Panhandles
northwestward into the eastern slopes of the central Rockies.

MLCAPE values along the front are as high as 1500 to 2500 J/kg
with locally 50+ kts of effective bulk shear in place helping to
favor concentrations of multicell and supercell convection. The
airmass is anomalously moist with at least some of the mid and
high-level monsoonal moisture over the Southwest advancing east
around the north side of the Four Corners subtropical ridge axis.
This is helping to favor PW anomalies of 2+ standard deviations
above normal.

Weak embedded shortwave energy within the mid-level west-northwest
flow over the central Rockies will eject east-southeast across
eastern CO and eventually portions of southwest KS and the OK/TX
Panhandles going into the overnight hours. This energy interacting
with the favorable thermodynamic environment and the front should
support an upscale grow of convection with time across the central
High Plains.

The experimental WoFS guidance along with the 18Z HREF suggest
areas of southeast CO and eventually portions of the OK/TX
Panhandles will tend to be the primary focus for more organized
convection and heavier rainfall totals at least through the
midnight time frame. This is also in close proximity to where
stronger frontal convergence and greater instability will be.

Rainfall rates of up to 2 inches/hour are expected with the
stronger supercell mode convective cells and with any cell-mergers
that occur over the next several hours. Going through midnight,
the high rainfall rates and localized cell-mergers may foster some
rainfall amounts of 3 to 4+ inches. This will drive a threat for
isolated to scattered areas of flash flooding.

Areas affected...Sierra Nevada...Western and Central NV

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding likely

Valid 250030Z - 250600Z

SUMMARY...Monsoonal showers and thunderstorms will continue
through the evening hours across the Sierra Nevada and portions of
the Great Basin. Additional areas of flash flooding will still be
likely with localized burn scar impacts still a concern over the
next few hours.

DISCUSSION...The late-day visible satellite imagery shows an
expansive area of monsoonal showers and thunderstorms impacting
the Sierra Nevada and interior portions of the Great Basin
including central and western NV.

A fair amount of surface-based instability remains in place across
central NV in particular, with an axis of instability extending
westward back into the northern Sierra Nevada. SBCAPE values are
on the order of 1000 to 2000+ J/kg, and there are some 3-hour
SBCAPE differentials across central NV of +800 to +1000 J/kg which
suggests that there are corridors of untapped instability that
will help sustain the ongoing convective threat for at least a few
more hours.

Deep monsoonal moisture remains in place as evidenced by the
latest CIRA-ALPW data which shows significant concentrations of
moisture in the mid to upper levels of the vertical column. The
00Z RAOB sounding from KREV depicted a PW of 0.96 which is again
near a daily record.

This moisture and instability coupled with upslope flow into the
terrain along with localized outflow boundary collisions over the
plateau areas of central and western NV favor clusters of
monsoonal convection persisting through the evening hours.

Given the high moisture environment, rainfall rates up to 1.5
inches/hour will still be possible, with some additional isolated
rainfall amounts of 2 to 3 inches possible which is supported by
recent runs of the experimental WoFS guidance. Generally these
additional rains are likely to foster some additional scattered
areas of flash flooding over the next few hours, and there will
continue to be concerns for localized burn scar impacts.

Areas affected...Southern UT...Central and Northern AZ

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

Valid 250100Z - 250600Z

SUMMARY...Additional scattered areas of flash flooding will remain
possible going through the evening hours from clusters of
monsoonal showers and thunderstorms.

DISCUSSION...The late-day GOES-W IR satellite imagery in
conjunction with radar continues to show broken clusters of
monsoonal showers and thunderstorms impacting portions of central
and northern AZ and southern UT. The activity continues to be
embedded within a moist and unstable airmass being facilitated by
the synoptic scale monsoon pattern across the Southwest.

There are still some pockets of untapped instability locally over
northwest AZ and southern UT with some MLCAPE values of 1000+ J/kg
noted. However, the region is gradually being convectively
overturned, and this should support a gradual downward trend in
the coverage and intensity of convection by later this evening.
This is also being advertised by recent runs of the experimental
WoFS and the broader hires model consensus.

Regardless, the ongoing clusters of convection will still be
capable of producing heavy rainfall rates of up to 1.5 inches/hour
over the next few hours, with some additional spotty amounts of up
to 2 inches going through late this evening.

Some additional scattered areas of flash flooding will be
possible, and this will include localized impacts potentially to
the slot canyon areas of southern UT and some of the sensitive
burn scar areas over central and especially northern AZ. Some of
the normally dry washes may also be affected by suddenly rising
flood waters.

Areas affected...much of west-central KS into adjacent portions of
CO/NE/OK

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

Valid 250635Z - 251200Z

Summary...Training showers and thunderstorms likely to result in
localized 3"+ rainfall totals, isolated to scattered instances of
flash flooding.

Discussion...Convection has proliferated over the past couple of
hours across portions of the western Central Plains, tapping into
elevated instability with cloud bases in the vicinity of 850-700
mb. While MUCAPE generally ranges from 250-750 J/kg (per SPC
mesoanalysis), there is likely compensation from slantwise
instability as isentropic upglide along the 305K surface has
increased significantly with the veering low-level jet over the
past several hours (with southwesterly flow of 15-20 kts becoming
oriented perpendicular to isobars). The mesoscale environment is
otherwise characterized highly anomalous tropospheric moisture
content (PWs of 1.3-1.8 inches, between the 90th percentile and
max moving average, per LBF and DDC sounding climatology) and deep
layer (0-6 km) shear of 20-40 kts (on the periphery of the
right-entrance region of a ~120 kt jet streak over the Mid-MS
Valley within northwest flow and embedded shortwave/vorticity
maxima in the mid-levels).

While soils are relatively dry across the region (per NASA
SPoRT-LIS soil moisture in the 0-1m layer generally at or below
the 10th percentile), too much rainfall too quickly could lead to
instances of flash flooding through the overnight. Localized
training and repeating of cells are possible across all of the
highlighted region, as northwest flow directs backbuilding
convection from northwest to southeast over many of the same
localities. Hi-res models (00z HREF suite) indicate the greatest
odds for localized 3"+ totals (40-km neighborhood probs for 3"
exceedance of 40-60%) in the vicinity of Dodge City, KS and points
east and southeast, where instability is maximized (MUCAPE 500+
J/kg) and the greatest coverage of convective cells are already
occurring. As 6-hr FFGs (Flash Flood Guidance) are locally as low
as 2.0" in this area (with the bulk of the region near or below
3.0"), isolated to scattered instances of flash flooding are
considered likely.

124 PM EDT Mon Aug 25 2025

Areas affected...Southern Arizona...

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

Valid 251730Z - 252330Z

SUMMARY...Monsoon convection with rates up to 2"/hr. Localized
1.5-2.5" pose possible widely-scattered localized flash flooding.

DISCUSSION...A compact but atypically strong retrograding
shortwave can be seen well in composite RADAR mosaic near Blythe
starting to turn more northerly across the Lower Colorado Valley.
The associated debris clouds will hamper insolation to build
instability, however, the upwind areas over the Sonoran Desert has
received solid insolation with anomalous moisture remaining across
southern AZ. Surface Tds in the low to mid-60s combined with core
of CIRA LPW up to 700mb, extends through much of southern AZ as
well, with only mid-level drying at 700-500mb layer directly south
of the boarder; providing enhanced buoyancy with CAPEs already
building over 2000 J/kg, on their way to 2500-3000 J/kg with
limited capping. Total PWats of 1.75" are above normal, about
1.5-2 standard anomalies and being loaded mainly near cloud base
(and below) should allow for solid efficiency.

GOES Visible imagery shows, low level convergence along the upwind
edge of outer band of the MCV is producing thunderstorms, that had
been weaker, but with influx of increasingly unstable air from the
desert, are starting to deepen and broaden. Low level flow is
still responding to the exiting MCV and broader upglide into the
strong divergence aloft from the expanding right entrance to the
50+kt 3H jet streak across S NV/SE CA, as such, back-building
(upwind propagation) may maintain for a few more hours allowing
for effective slow cell motions increasing totals up to 2".

Through the late morning/early afternoon, as the MCV exits, winds
are expected to further strengthen with westerly upslope
components across southeast AZ terrain across Cochise, SE Pima and
S Graham counties. Vigor of low level upslope is likely to
significantly increase toward/after 21z, with 15-20kts of westerly
flow at 850mb. Peak heating/updraft strength and flux into the
terrain, rates should increase to 1.5"/hr with some 2"/hr rates
peaking toward 22-00z. Probabilities/Hi-Res CAM suite suggest
best overall cells are likely to be along and just north of the
US/Mexico border with a spot or two of 1.5-2.5" totals. With a
bulk of the rain occurring in sub-hourly bursts and hard ground
conditions, increased run-off suggest widely-scattered incidents
of flash flooding are possible into the early evening.

340 PM EDT Mon Aug 25 2025

Areas affected...Central and Southern CO...Northern and Central
NM...Far Northeast AZ...Far Southeast UT

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding likely

Valid 251940Z - 260140Z

SUMMARY...Showers and thunderstorms will develop and expand in
coverage going through the afternoon hours over portions of the
central Rockies and adjacent areas of the CO/NM High Plains.
Scattered areas of flash flooding are likely.

DISCUSSION...The midday GOES-E visible satellite imagery shows
convective initiation well underway across portions of central and
southern CO down through areas of northern and central NM. Strong
diurnal heating continues to foster the build-up of surface-based
instability which is resulting in the development of differential
heating boundaries and terrain-focused circulations.

MLCAPE values have already risen to 500 to 1000+ J/kg with a
rather moist environment characterized by PWs of 1.5+ standard
deviations above normal. This coupled with the aforementioned
orographics and arrival of weak mid-level vort energy embedded
within the deeper layer west-northwest flow aloft should favor a
notable expansion of convection over the next several hours across
the higher terrain and also into adjacent areas of the High Plains.

Moist and increasingly unstable low-level upslope flow along with
focused convergence along a stationary front near the Front Range
on down to the eastern slopes of the Sangre De Cristo Range will
be a key facilitator for convection across these areas to become
locally focused by later this afternoon. In fact, surface dew
points across eastern CO and northeast NM range from the mid 50s
to the low 60s, and this moisture along with the deep layer
environment should foster convection with efficiently high
rainfall rates that may reach 2+ inches/hour. Localized upslope
flow over the terrain will also support these high rainfall rates.

Going through late this afternoon, expect sufficient convective
organization for some rainfall totals to reach as high as 2 to 4
inches. These rains will drive an elevated threat for at least
scattered areas of flash flooding which will include concerns for
localized burn scar impacts. Some areas of southern CO and
northern NM have been rather wet recently, and these antecedent
conditions may favor locally enhanced runoff concerns.

Range of southern CA, and also into the central and southern
Sierra Nevada. Scattered areas of flash flooding are likely, and
this may include a threat for burn scar flash flooding and debris
flow activity.

DISCUSSION...The early afternoon GOES-W Day Cloud Phase RGB
satellite imagery shows convective initiation underway across the
higher terrain of the Peninsular Range of southern CA and also up
across the central and southern Sierra Nevada. Daytime heating and
the build of surface-based instability along and adjacent the
terrain is fostering favorable differential heating boundary and terrain-enhanced circulations/ascent for convection which should
generally expand in coverage over the next several hours.

Monsoonal moisture remains quite prevalent and especially in the
850/500 mb layer based on the latest CIRA-ALPW data. This is
helping to drive PW anomalies again that are 1.5 to 2.5 standard
deviations above normal. This moisture along with the increasing
instability and orographic footprint of the convection should
yield rainfall rates this afternoon reaching as high as 1.5 to 2
inches/hour, with some of the heaviest rates probably focused over
the Peninsular Range of southern CA where moisture here is a tad
deeper (noting the 500/300 mb layer) relative to areas farther
north. Also, there is some very moist low-level southeast flow off
of the northern Gulf of California playing a role here in driving
greater nearby instability.

The convection today should again follow the diurnal heating
cycle, and by late today, some spotty rainfall amounts of 2 to 4
inches will be possible. This is supported locally by the latest
experimental WoFS guidance, and especially over the Peninsular
Range. Given the sensitivities with localized burn scar areas and
the rugged terrain in general, scattered areas of flash flooding
are likely. Some debris flow activity will be possible where any
burn scar flash flooding occurs.

436 PM EDT Mon Aug 25 2025

Areas affected...Southern NV...Southern UT...Central and Northern
AZ

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

Valid 252035Z - 260235Z

SUMMARY...Monsoonal showers and thunderstorms will continue to
develop and locally expand in coverage over the next several
hours. Mainly isolated areas of flash flooding will be possible.

DISCUSSION...The early afternoon GOES-W visible satellite imagery
shows monsoonal shower and thunderstorm activity initiating and
expanding in coverage across northern AZ into southern NV and
southern UT. MLCAPE values have increased to as much as 1000+ J/kg
and the PW environment remains quite moist with values running 1
to 2 standard deviations above normal.

An additional uptick in instability is expected over the next few
hours which should work in tandem with orographics to drive an
increase in the coverage of showers and thunderstorms. The
convection will be capable of producing high rainfall rates of up
to 1.5 inches/hour.

The latest RAP guidance shows an increasing amount of mid-level
southeast flow over central to northwest AZ and by later today
around the western flank of the mid-level subtropical ridge/high
centered along the AZ/NM border. Some effective bulk shear values
may reach as high as 30 to 40+ kts which may support some
organized convective structures in time that will further support
high rainfall rates with enhanced updrafts, but also localized
areas of convective sustenance/persistence near areas of higher
terrain and including the Mogollon Rim.

Some localized 2 to 3+ inch rainfall amounts will be possible, and
this will favor a threat for at least isolated areas of flash
flooding going through the afternoon and early evening hours. Slot
canyon and burn scar flash flooding impacts will be associated
with this threat.

Areas affected...Southern CA...Southwest to South-Central AZ

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding likely

Valid 252145Z - 260145Z

SUMMARY...Locally very heavy monsoon-driven showers and
thunderstorms are expected going through the remainder of the
afternoon across southern CA into southwest and south-central AZ.
Scattered areas of flash flooding are likely, some of which may be
locally significant.

DISCUSSION...The mid-afternoon GOES-W VIS/IR satellite imagery
shows deepening and cooling convective tops across southeast CA
and into adjacent areas of southern AZ where radar is confirming
multiple concentrated bands of very heavy shower and thunderstorm
activity.

Mesoscale boundary forcings/interactions along with terrain
influence and proximity of a very moist and unstable airmass is
expected to drive corridors of additional convection with high
rainfall rates going into the evening hours. MLCAPE values of 1500
to 2500 J/kg are noted with recent CIN erosion helping to yield
the recent uptick and organization of convection across southern
CA and southern AZ. This includes the Peninsular Range and the
adjacent deserts off to the east and south.

Given the level of focused instability over the region with PWs
reaching nearly 2.5 standard deviations above normal (with support
from the very warm nearby Gulf of California), some rainfall rates
may reach 2 to 2.5 inches/hour, with some spotty storm totals over
the next few hours of 3 to 4+ inches. Recent WoFS guidance output
suggests this potential, which will be aided by some localized
cell-merger activity.

Additional areas of flash flooding will be likely, some of which
may be locally significant near areas of higher terrain and also
for the dry wash/arroyo locations near and away from active areas
of heavy shower and thunderstorm activity.

Areas affected...Southern and Eastern CA...Western and Southern AZ

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding likely

Valid 260110Z - 260600Z

SUMMARY...Additional areas of flash flooding will be likely going
through the evening hours across portions of southern and eastern
CA through western and central AZ.

DISCUSSION...The late-day GOES-W IR satellite imagery shows an
extensive convective cloud canopy over areas of southern and
eastern CA into western and central AZ. Very heavy showers and
thunderstorms continue to locally percolate across the region in
response to localized outflow boundary collisions and some
orographically focused ascent.

Diurnally driven instability continues to be gradually consumed
via the process of convective overturning, but MLCAPE values
remain locally over 1000 J/kg across some of the open desert areas
of eastern CA and also through central AZ with much of this area
so far escaping much of the convective activity.

Recent runs of the experimental WoFS suggest some additional focus
for mesoscale-driven shower and thunderstorm activity across
central AZ in particular which may be aided by close proximity of
some mid-level vort energy lifting northwestward out of the far
northern Gulf of California.

There is also a belt of relatively stronger effective bulk shear
lifting up across southern and central AZ around the western side
of the subtropical ridge off to the east. This shear and the
lingering instability with generally moist deep layer southeast
monsoonal flow will likely support convection lingering well into
the evening.

Rainfall rates will continue to be capable of reaching up to 1.5
inches/hour with the stronger convective cores, with some
additional spotty totals of 2 to 3 inches possible. The 90th
percentile 6-hour QPF from 00Z WoFS supports this over parts of
central and southwest AZ.

This will continue to promote isolated to scattered areas of flash
flooding through this evening before the convection gradually
weakens. Any burn scar locations and the normally dry washes will
continue to be most susceptible to impacts.

Areas affected...San Joaquin Valley into Sierra Nevada foothills

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding likely

Valid 261450Z - 261850Z

SUMMARY...Slow moving thunderstorms will pose a threat for
isolated flash flooding across portions of the San Joaquin Valley
into the Sierra Nevada foothills over the next 2-4 hours. Rainfall
rates of 1-2 in/hr will be possible.

DISCUSSION...GOES West infrared satellite imagery and GLM data
showed scattered thunderstorms expanding in coverage over the San
Joaquin Valley and Sierra Nevada foothills as of 1430Z, within
about 50 miles of Madera. Cells were located along a weak
mid-level shear axis inferred on water vapor imagery, emanating
from a vorticity maximum over west-central NV. The storms were
likely elevated in nature, rooted just above 700 mb given RAP
analysis point soundings, within a small region of weak
instability ranging from 250 to just over 500 J/kg (via 14Z
RAP/SPC mesoanalysis). Precipitable water values were very
anomalous across central CA with standardized anomalies of 2 to 3+
according to 12Z area soundings and short term GFS forecasts.

With RAP-derived LFC-EL layer winds averaging near 5 kt, cell
motions have been slow and MRMS-derived rainfall rates have been
1-2 in/hr over portions of Fresno and Madera counties. Scattered
thunderstorms are expected to continue over the next few hours but
due to a lack of stronger winds aloft, storm organization should
remain poor and new cell development will be aided by thunderstorm
outflows. Localized flash flooding will remain possible over the
next 2-4 hours. Trends will be monitored for updates as needed
with the onset of better surface heating and turbulent mixing
within the boundary layer potentially disrupting ongoing activity.

Areas affected...eastern CA/western NV

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

Valid 261816Z - 270000Z

SUMMARY...Scattered thunderstorms are expected to develop along
the Sierra Nevada through 21Z, some of which may produce flash
flooding due to slow movement. Stronger cells will be capable of
generating 1-2 in/hr rainfall rates.

DISCUSSION...GOES West visible satellite imagery showed the
development of cumulus and early stages of convective initiation
along portions of the central and southern Sierra Nevada at 18Z.
Despite some remnant cloud cover, the beginning of peak heating
atop the elevated heat source was coinciding with anomalous
tropospheric moisture (90th to 95th percentile for late August).
The region of eastern CA/western NV was situated between a low to
mid-level low offshore of the CA coast and low/trough extending
from eastern OR into central NV. Between these two features was a
section of relatively weak 0-6 km AGL layer winds of 5 to 10 kt
which should contribute to slow storm motions.

Continued heating should lead to the development of 500-1000 J/kg
of instability across the region by mid-afternoon. Thunderstorm
coverage will likely continue to expand over the next few hours
with peak coverage in the 21-00Z time frame. Limited shear should
keep storms disorganized in nature but slow movement and
mesoscale/terrain interactions may allow for a few cells to
exhibit little movement over the course of an hour or two before
subsequent outflow initiates development downstream. Convection
may move into valley locations later in the period. Due to the
moist environment, rainfall rates of 1-2 in/hr (or less than an
hour) will be possible. In addition to overlapping with locations
that have received heavy rainfall over the past 3 days, these high
rates will pose an increased flash flood threat along burn scars,
urban locations or other areas of poor drainage, including the
potential for debris flows in and around sensitive terrain.

Areas affected...Southern ID...Northeast NV...Northern
UT...Western WY...-

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

Valid 261840Z - 270030Z

SUMMARY...Highly anomalous moisture and strong dynamic forcing
should allow for scattered to numerous thunderstorms capable of 1"
rates & 1-2" localized totals. Favorable environment for
redevelopment may allow for some repeating cells/tracks which will
further enhance scattered incidents of flash flooding through
evening.

DISCUSSION...GOES WV mosaic suite depicts a very broad upper-level
trough with some subtle WNW to SE negative tilting lifting
northward across central NV with the core near central Nye county
with broad downstream highly diffluent environment expanding
across N NV, S ID into W WY/N UT providing areas of enhanced mid
to upper-level cloudiness. This is greater near the core of the
DPVA; allowing for better filtrated insolation further downstream
across the ID/NV border, increasing heating. The bigger concern
is seasonally near record moisture and flux streaming through the
Great Basin, providing higher low level theta-E air with Tds in
the mid to upper 50s in higher plateaus of NV and UT and even some
low 60s near the southern portions of the Snake River Plain.=20
While the filtered sunlight has some limitations for surface
temperatures, the areas that have best clearing are already seeing
convective development given limiting capping environments and
strong DPVA and divergence aloft with large scale broad ascent
pattern. MUCAPEs of 750-1250 J/kg have been increasing as the
deep layer moisture reaches 1-1.25" total moisture (with a few 12z
RAOBs breaking, or nearing daily record values). Surface to
boundary layer moisture convergence is further enhanced near the
clear skies of NE NV into SE ID and so convection is stronger
there and downstream into S-central ID. Cores are likely to be
narrow but increase in overall coverage allowing for some
localized 1-1.5" totals in 30-90 minutes, as deep layer flow is
generally weak support 5-10 kt cell motions and increased duration
of moderate to heavy rainfall locally. As such scattered
incidents of flash flooding are possible, particularly near burn
scars.

Through this evening, upper-level divergence further increases
across NE NV into S ID, but along the eastern side of the
circulation has increased convergence through depth with a smaller
scale shortwave/vorticity center lifting northward along the
central UT mountains. This shortwaves and interaction with
outflow boundaries from initial cells will allow for secondary and
perhaps tertiary development that may repeat. As such, the risk
for heavy rainfall is likely to persist through much of the
evening.

Areas affected...Northern Arizona...Southern Utah...Extreme
West-northwestern New Mexico...

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

Valid 261920Z - 270100Z

SUMMARY...Deep layer moist, confluent flow, and moderately
unstable environment to support some repeating/training convective
elements across dry/hard soils with localized 1-2" totals and
possible flash flooding conditions through the evening hours.

DISCUSSION...GOES WV mosaic depicts a well defined broad diffluent
area across much of the northern Great Basin into the Rockies of
WY/ID with core of weakly negatively tilted mid-level vorticity
center in central NV angling into NW AZ. A convectively enhanced
smaller scale shortwave is exiting southwest UT into central UT,
lifting northward. The combination of the stronger height-falls
has left the upstream areas within the southeast quadrant with
above normal moisture flux out of the Sonoran Desert and across
the San Francisco Plateau and across UT. Total PWat values of
1-1.25" have expanded up through the valleys of Eastern and
western UT and across N AZ mainly driven in the lowest layers with
Tds as high as the low 60s at KPGA and CNY, similar to those more
common along the Colorado River into SW UT (near KSGU) with all
locations in the area of concern well above normal into the mid to
upper 50s. In the wake of the height-falls and best divergence
aloft, fairly clear skies have provided solid insolation to allow
for increased surface heating and unstable environments support
MUCAPEs of 1000 to 1500 J/kg (greater along the AZ/NM boarder)
within the increasingly confluent streamwise flow. Convergence
along the Mogollon Rim and Mountain/Valley circulations have seen
numerous convective development areas across NW AZ, along the
Mogollon Rim and into the enhanced unstable area along the AZ/NM
border along and downstream of the San Francisco and Gallo Ranges.

Given the flux convergence rates of 1-1.5"/hr are possible, though
deep layer flow is stronger further south in the wake of the
exiting waves, limiting duration. However, north-south confluence
axes are likely to develop and will grant the best potential of
1-2" totals due to short-term (1-2 hour) training or repeating
through 3-5 hour periods. Hard/limited soil conditions with these
rates suggest localized incidents of flash flooding are possible
through the evening.=20=20

Valid 262015Z - 270200Z

SUMMARY...Increasing slow moving thunderstorms capable of 1"+/hr
rates will eventually expand into a favorable collision/merger
environment and support 1-2"+ totals resulting in scattered
localized incidents of possible flash flooding.

DISCUSSION...GOES WV suite depicts solid SE to NW short-wave
ridging axis across central ID with very favorable divergence
aloft as the northwestern edge of the jet streak expands westward
across MT, further tightening the ridge axis as the core of the
trough slides northeast into NE NV, south-central ID later
tonight. While in the lowest levels, southerly moisture influx
continues to filter through the Snake River Plain up into the
terrain. RAP analysis suggests 850-700mb convergence axis is
approaching, all the while, filtered sunlight has been increasing
surface temperatures and with the increased moisture, greater
instability. Currently MLCAPEs have reached 500 J/kg with limited
capping; and a few of the highest peaks have seen convective
development. As greater moisture and peak heating (1000 J/kg)
increase toward 21-22z, expect convective vigor and coverage to
expand throughout the range.

At the apex of the ridge, mean steering flow will remain weak and persistent/increasing southerly upslope flow may allow for
increased duration/redevelopment through the peaks before moving
off. HRRR and WoFS rapid refresh suggest increasing coverage and
slow motions with 15 and 5 minute rates suggestive of .5" and .2"
rates, respectively, resulting in 1" exceedance probabilities to
near 70-90% toward 23-00z. This is likely, as initial
thunderstorms develop outflows, this will broaden moisture
convergence for increased convective coverage and border updrafts
with each up/down cycle. Mean cell motions of 5-10kts toward the
north and northeast, countered by propagation toward the south due
to inflow, suggests likelihood of cell mergers and localized
instances of effectively stationary motions will allow for
localized totals of 1-2". Naturally low FFG (.75-1"/hr &
1-1.5"/3hrs) may be exceeded; while soils are dry per NASA SPoRT
LIS generally below 25% compared to average, the harder top layers
may be a bit more hydrophobic initially and if rates are intense
enough should limit inflation and further increase run-off and
potential for localized flash flooding.

500 PM EDT Tue Aug 26 2025

Areas affected...South-central WY...Central
Colorado...North-central New Mexico...

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

Valid 262100Z - 270230Z

SUMMARY...Initially slow moving thunderstorms along the Front
Ranges of the Central Rockies will become increasingly efficient
with rates of 1.5"/hr and localized 2-3" totals possible. In
proximity to steeper terrain/urban settings localized flash
flooding is possible.

DISCUSSION...GOES-E Visible and Regional RADAR mosaic depict a
compact shortwave/MCV feature moving through northwest CO nearing
the apex of the larger scale ridge axis. The DPVA along the
leading edge of the wave and across the southeast quadrant has
been forcing scattered convection with intense rainfall production
through the western Colorado Rockies. As the wave is approaching
the Continental Divide, deeper layer moisture from the High Plains
is starting to respond and increase upslope flow along the Front
Ranges of CO and NM at this time. Sufficient morning/afternoon
heating has resulted in the spine of the Rockies to become
conditionally unstable with broad 1000-1500 J/kg of MLCAPE through
the upslope region, given upper 50s Tds and modest mid-level lapse
rates. The 850-700mb confluent flow is providing solid moisture
flux even from the Four Corners region, but obviously greater
depth up to 1.5" has been analyzed through the Front Range and
with 10-15kts should support solid low level flux for efficient
rainfall production as convection further organizes over the next
few hours.

Given core of height-falls remains far enough west, cell motions
will be very slow/stationary given back-building influences; this
is greater further south where mid to upper level flow is weaker
in the anticyclonic rotor of the flow. So as the MCV and
height-falls cross the higher terrain, cells further north will
start propagating eastward a bit sooner than those across the
Sangre de Cristo Ranges. As such, localized totals of 1-2.5" are
probable across the central Rockies of S WY and northern CO; while
spots of 2-3" are more likely (though still scattered in coverage)
further south into Northern New Mexico. This generally aligns
with the naturally low FFG within the upper-slopes of the Front
Range that are .75-1.5"/hr and 1-2"/3hr; local exceedance is
probable and scattered incidents of flash flooding are possible.=20
The risk of flash flooding, of course, is slightly greater if the
cells intersect with the larger urban centers along the Front
Range.

Areas affected...Northern Sierra Nevada Range & Far Northern
California...

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

Valid 262200Z - 270300Z

SUMMARY...Strong convective thunderstorms capable of 1.5"/hr with
potential for training across complex terrain of the Northern
Sierra Nevada Range may result in localized flash flooding
concerns through the late evening.

DISCUSSION...GOES-W Visible and 10.3um trends show strong, cooling thunderstorms continue to expand and merge into a larger somewhat
linear feature. RADAR and lightning animation, denote cells are strengthening/expanding but also propagating outward both west and
east off the main ridge lines across northeast CA into far western
NV. Total PWat analysis shows northern Central Valley and Great
Basin are well above normal (at 1.2" ranges) with nearly localized
maximum values over the last 30 years; while elevated, the
northern Sierra Nevada range has similar, if slightly lower
percentiles due to the lack of overall vertical depth to reach
values near .7-.9" required. Still, the available moisture is
highly anomalous to support highly efficient rainfall production
given local surface Tds in the low 50s and with temperatures into
the mid-70s, suggest CAPE values are slightly higher than analyzed
at 1000-1500 J/kg. This supports rates of 1.5"/hr given weak but
moist upslope convergent flow.

Along the northwest periphery of the larger scale wave in the
Great Basin has resulted in deeper layer steering/confluence
across the northern Sierra to support a southwestward cell
motions, this may allow for short-term training/repeating over the
next few hours as the remaining inability is exhausted and cells
further expand outward/downslope in each perpendicular to the mean
flow. As such a spot or two of 2" totals remains possible in 30
to 90 minutes, given complex terrain and low FFG values (1-1.5" in
1 to 3hrs), localized flash flooding may be possible through the
next few hours before instability/heating is fully exhausted.

Areas affected...Southern Nevada...Far Southeast California
Deserts...

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

Valid 270015Z - 270600Z

SUMMARY...Converging clusters in vicinity of remaining unstable,
moist air mass to continue widely scattered incidents of localized
flash flooding through early overnight period.

DISCUSSION...GOES-W WV suite continues to show main larger scale
cyclone exiting the northern Great Basin toward the Snake River
Plain with active clusters of activity along the far western
peripheries across the terrain of the Sierra Nevada and in
proximity to the San Bernandino Ranges. These clusters are
expected to continue through northwesterly flow and generally
merge across the southern Great Basin. Currently, there remain
stronger thunderstorms across central San Bernandino county
lifting northward feeding on the remaining limited unstable air at
the northwestern edge of deeper lingering moisture (1-1.25" total
PWats) through the higher deserts of southeast CA. Cells appear
to have generated a cold pool resulting in northeasterly
proapgation and are exepected to diminsh in the next few hours.=20
Still, cells remain capable of a quick .5" of rain in less than
30-60 minutes and given desert, hard rock conditions; flash
flooding would remain possible though increasingly more scattered
in nature with time.

However, this cluster's outflow will remain important as it slides
northeast into SW NV as it will intersect with outflow/convergent
band at nose of northwesterly flow/downward mixing eminating from
the central Sierra Nevada Range. Combine that with return
moisture flow from south to southeasterly flow out of the Colorado
River Valley, much of southern and central Nevada remain
conditionally unstable with 1000-1500 J/kg of MLCAPE analyzed by
the RAP. Total moisture also remains above normal with 1.25"+
Total PWats. As the boundaries intersect toward sunset, an uptick
in convective coverage and intensity is expected. Cell motions
are likely to limit overall totals, but 1-1.5"/hr rates and
localized totals of 1" over desert/rocky ground conditions (where
FFG values are generally less than .75") suggests a few widely
scattered, locally focused instances of flash flooding will remian
possible through 06z.=20=20

Of note, GOES-W Visible imagery shows a bit of mixed aerosols
(mainly smoke over the central Great Basin (NW Nye county and
northwest), cells that have been ingesting the aerosols have shown
a slight increase in rainfall efficiency given increased
nucliation resulting in small but more numerous rain droplets
effectively acting like more tropical/warm cloud processes.

847 PM EDT Tue Aug 26 2025

Areas affected...Southern Idaho...Far Northern Utah...Far Eastern
Oregon...

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding likely

Valid 270045Z - 270630Z

SUMMARY...Scattered incidents of localized flash flooding likely
to continue through the early overnight period along the northern
and eastern sides of larger scale mid-level cyclone. Additional
totals of 2"+ possible, especially north and west.

DISCUSSION...GOES-W WV suite shows core of large scale mid-level
cyclone continues to lift northward and is currently centered in
far NE NV with very impressive 150 degree highly diffluent
upper-level jet pattern expanding across eastern OR into western
MT before entering the core of the 80-90kt 250mb jet over the
Northern High Plains. The sharpness of the ridging continues to
provide very strong divergence pattern aloft across the Snake
River Plain into the Salmon River Range and low level winds have
responded, backed and accelerated through the Snake River Valley
increasing convergence across southwest ID into the remaining core
of greatest unstable air (1000-1250 J/kg of MLCAPE). Strong
convective arc of overshooting tops can be seen across
Boise/Elmore county extending north. Deep layer moisture to near
1.3-1.4" and 850-700mb winds to 15-20kt per VWP suggest flux will
support 1.5-1.75"/hr rates locally. Slow cell motions in the core
of the ridge aloft should allow for some duration where localized
1-3" totals are possible, which fits well toward the 90th
percentile in recent WoFS run where qualitative assessment
suggests maximum totals generally are just below that 90th
percentile value and in some fairly close proximity. Given
terrain and naturally low FFG values, this provides confidence
that localized incidents of flash flooding are likely over the
next few hours. Generally, convergence axis is expected to
further lift northwest through the Snake Plain into eastern
Oregon, though overall rates/totals should reduce out of the core
of deepest overall moisture, but still remain a flash flooding
risk.

Further upstream, the warm conveyor belt and deep southerly
moisture surge continues east of the deeper overall mid-level
center through western UT into southeast ID, ongoing thunderstorms
continue to burst through the cirrus canopy, through overall well
of unstable air continues to reduce across UT into E ID/far W WY.=20
Overall trends should be diminishing over the next few hours with
that instability/heating loss, but overall moisture and strength
of flux convergence will allow for ongoing activity to be
efficient (though likely a bit less than the stronger deeper cores
further west) spots of additional 1-2" are probable and may induce
similar localized incidents of flash flooding through the early
overnight period. New thunderstorm activity is possible near/just
east of the mid to upper level center as DPVA may locally back
winds and tap smaller areas of remaining unmixed unstable air, but
should be very isolated across northern UT and just over the
border.

NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD
333 PM EDT Wed Aug 27 2025

Areas affected...Southern Idaho...Northern Utah...Western
Wyoming...

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

Valid 271930Z - 280030Z

SUMMARY...Above normal moisture and slow cell motions, with a few
corridors of repeating cells may result in sub-hourly totals of
.5-1" and isolated locations of up to 2". Complex, steep terrain,
old burn scars are at greatest potential for localized flash
flooding through evening.=20

DISCUSSION...GOES-E WV suite and RAP analysis denotes a string of
mid-level vorticity centers within a vortex roll-up pattern
stretching from the strongest wave near the mouth of the Columbia
River in WA/OR crossing the Bitter Roots, Centential and
eventually across the Big Horns toward western Nebraska. Along
and north of the line, scattered dense with very small breaks in
the mid-level cloud canopy has resulted in limited infiltration of
solar heating and therefore unstable environment. However, in
their wake a broad area of fairly clear skies and lingering
remaining moisture which is still well above normal ranging from 1
to 1.3" for Total Pwat values, though most of the surface to
boundary layer moisture remains at or above 60F for Tds across
Snake River Plain, surrounding terrain/valleys into northern UT
and far western WY. As such, near full insolation has brought
SBCAPEs up across much of the area over 1000 J/kg with pockets of
1500 J/kg typically in lower valleys (where vertical depth just
adds to the overall totals).=20

WV and other conventional satellite imagery also denotes a
shortwave feature south of the main shear axis crossing SW ID at
this time, the strength of the wave is maintained/enhanced aloft
by sharp 250mb ridging along the main mid-level shear axis
providing solid right entrance but also diffluent flow for solid
outflow increasing broader vertical ascent/evacuation. As such,
the westerly DPVA is helping to develop arched banding
convergence downstream across SW ID and across the Range and Basin
terrain south of the Snake River Plain across S-central to SE ID
for increasing convective development. While initially narrow in up/downdrafts, vertical strength and low level moisture loading
will increase rainfall rates toward .75-1"/hr. Cells will be
fairly slow moving at 10-15kts and given the orientation of
development across SE ID, some repeating is possible. As such, a
spot or two of up to 2" is possible, though spots of .5-1" in
sub-hourly totals may still result in localized enhanced run-off
and possible flash flooding conditions.

More north-south linear convective lines are developing southward
across N UT, and should not train, but may repeat over areas
affected earlier and may reaggravate any flooding
conditions/higher run-off areas.=20

Nearer the SW ID shortwave, cells should be stronger more
progressive in nature given stronger deeper layer flow, but on the
northern rotor, downshear of the vort center across the Southern Sawtooth/Salmon River Ranges, cells could hang up/slow allowing
for isolated enhanced totals, so have included this area into the
area of concern for overall lower end, isolated to
widely-scattered potential for flash flooding conditions.=20

At this time, have left much of central ID and along SW MT/ID
border excluded given the lack of instability, though strength of
dynamic forcing may continue to be main driver...but is a bit more
uncertain for intense rates, even though Hi-Res CAMs and global
guidance are more consistent with overall rainfall totals. So,
will continue to watch observational trends if an MPD will be
necessary across that area.

825 PM EDT Wed Aug 27 2025

Areas affected...Eastern Colorado...Western Kansas...

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

Valid 280030Z - 280530Z

SUMMARY...Increasing convection at near strengthening surface low
may result in slow moving clusters with eventual upstream mergers
before main WAA/isentropic ascent/training event occurs
downstream. Localized 2-4" totals through 04-05z may result in
possible localized flash flooding incidents.=20

DISCUSSION...Larger, synoptic scale trough over ID/MT Rockies
continues to elongate into a string of vorticity centers along the
northern edge of the synoptic ridging centered over the New Mexico
and Colorado High Plains. The eastward edge of the vorticity
strip has fostered strong convective cells, expanding into a
forward propagating line of cells across W NEB into NE CO which
will continue to march southward intersecting return low level
moisture and upslope flow over E CO/NW KS over the next few hours.
The DPVA along with strong right entrance of exiting
northwesterly upper-level jet over central and eastern KS; as well
as nose of approaching speed max out of the Four Corners is
supporting solid divergent pattern over eastern CO to support the
thunderstorm activity, but more importantly continue to deepen the
surface cyclone south of Burlington, CO. A well defined surface
front is bending under the deepening low's influence as well as
increasing deep layer moisture convergence along/ahead of the
advancing convective line with newer downstream cells starting to
break out over W KS. These clusters will continue to
strength/expand and with increasing deep layer moisture inflow
will increase in rainfall efficiency over the next few hours over
far E CO. Sub-hourly/instantaneous rates will be strong but
forward propagation may only support localized 1.5-2" totals.

However, pre-convective line cells developing in proximity to the
surface low and southward trending pressure trof/convergence axis
seen very well in late-day visible imagery have been developing
slow moving thunderstorms with solid 20kt surface to boundary
layer inflow of mid 60s Tds and are supporting 1.5-2"/hr rates.=20
Slow motions, waiting for the upstream DPVA/height-falls have been
allowing some localized totals nearing 2-3" and may continue to
support other local totals up to 4" before the main line arrives.=20
While much of SW KS has the locally higher FFG values, a few spots
may be exceeded and result in a localized/focused incident or two
of flash flooding.

Eventually, as the boundary layer decouples after sunset and the
LLJ starts to strengthen and broaden, isentropic ascent along the
frontal zone ahead of the approaching convective line will develop
and orient generally parallel to the mean steering flow allowing
for training and eventual more likely flash flooding concerns
later overnight into central KS (and downstream), but a subsequent
MPD will be written close to that time frame, but until that
time...scattered flash flooding remains locally possible.

Mesoscale Precipitation Discussion 1017
NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD
100 AM EDT Thu Aug 28 2025

Areas affected...Western and Southern KS...Northern OK

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

Valid 280500Z - 281000Z

SUMMARY...Gradually organizing clusters of heavy showers and
thunderstorms will eventually pose a threat for scattered areas of
flash flooding going through the remainder of the overnight hours.

DISCUSSION...The latest GOES-E IR satellite imagery shows cooling
convective cloud tops across western KS as modest shortwave energy
ejecting east-southeast across the region interacts with a
stationary frontal zone and gradually strengthening warm air
advection associated with an increasing south-southwest low-level
jet.

So far, area VWP show the low-level jet reaching only 20 to 30+
kts across northern OK and southern KS, and the instability
profiles are rather modest too with MUCAPE values along and
northeast of the front of 500 to 1000 J/kg. This has been
tempering the convective organization and coverage over the last
couple of hours, but as the low-level jet strengthens further
(especially after 0600Z), there should be a more substantial
increase in elevated convection across western and southern KS,
and perhaps across northern OK as well where the best instability
gradient is currently situated.

The latest hires CAMs show a fair amount of spread with the exact
placement of the heaviest rainfall threat overnight along with the
totals. Overall, the 00Z HREF suite appears to potentially be a
bit overdone (especially considering the very aggressive 00Z
NAM-Conest), and the consensus may be a bit too far off to the
northeast into the more stable airmass that is currently locked in
place across eastern KS.

Radar and satellite trends along with some of the recent WoFS
guidance suggests areas of western and southern KS will see the
main concentration of heavier shower and thunderstorm activity
over the next few hours. By later tonight, areas of northern OK
should begin to also see more focus for convection as the nose of
a gradually veering low-level jet impinges on this region.

Rainfall rates of 1 to 2 inches/hour are expected with the
stronger storms, and eventually sufficient organization is
expected to foster some cell-training concerns. This will
potentially support rainfall totals of 2 to 4 inches with isolated
5+ inch amounts possible. These rains will eventually pose a
threat for some scattered areas of flash flooding.

Mesoscale Precipitation Discussion 1018
NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD
505 AM EDT Thu Aug 28 2025

Areas affected...Southern KS...North-Central to Northeast OK...Far
Southwest MO...Northwest to Central AR

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding likely

Valid 280905Z - 281505Z

SUMMARY...Organized clusters and bands of showers and
thunderstorms will continue through the morning hours. A
combination of localized cell-training and heavy rainfall rates
will likely result in areas of flash flooding. Locally significant
urban flooding impacts will be possible.

DISCUSSION...The latest GOES-E IR satellite imagery along with
dual-pol radar shows organized clusters of elevated convection
evolving across portions of central and southern KS on down into
northern OK. Additional elevated bands of convection are also
noted well off to the southeast down across northwest to central
AR. The activity early this morning is being strongly supported by
the east-southeast advance of weak mid-level shortwave energy
interacting with a stationary frontal zone and the nose of 40+ kt
southwest low-level jet overrunning it.

A corridor of stronger speed convergence and with proximity of an
elevated instability gradient over southern KS in particular has
allowed for convection across these areas to gain substantial
organization over the last couple of hours with heavy rainfall
rates that are reaching upwards of 2 inches/hour with the stronger
cells.

Enhanced warm air advection/isentropic ascent across this region
to the northeast of the aforementioned front should maintain
convection over the next several hours, but with a gradual
tendency for the convection to lose some latitude while also
advancing off to the east. MUCAPE values are rather modest with
values of 500 to 1000 K/kg, but the increase in low-level moisture
transport and related speed convergence is expected to help
compensate and continue to support locally high rainfall rates
along with a generally organized axis of convection.

The 00Z HREF/REFS suites of guidance are still likely too far to
the north and east with their axis of heavier QPF this morning,
and perhaps a tad too heavy. Recent runs of the HRRR, RRFS and
WoFS all suggest more of a northwest to southeast axis of heavy
rains that impacts southern KS into north-central and northeast OK
going through the morning hours. Heavy rains will also be likely
well off to the southeast across northwest to central AR and
perhaps brushing somewhat into far southwest MO. Additional
localized rainfall totals of as much as 3 to 5+ inches of rain
will be possible, and especially with a favorable environment for cell-training.

Given the elevated rainfall rates and storm totals that are
expected this morning, areas of flash flooding are likely. This
may include a locally significant urban flooding impact.

NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD
1055 AM EDT Thu Aug 28 2025

Areas affected...central/eastern OK into western/central/southern
AR

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding likely

Valid 281454Z - 281900Z

SUMMARY...Areas of training with rain rates ranging between 1 to 3
in/hr are expected to produce areas of flash flooding from
portions of eastern OK into western AR through 19Z. Additional
rainfall over the next 4 hours should range between 2 to 4 inches,
but localized higher totals cannot be ruled out.

DISCUSSION...Radar imagery from 1420Z showed an elongated axis of
elevated thunderstorms stretching from central OK into western AR,
along with a secondary axis of NW to SE training from central AR
into central MS. Since 12Z, embedded areas of training within this
broad axis have shown hourly rainfall between 1-2 inches, but
locally in excess of 2 inches as well. A convectively enhanced
vorticity max was observed in water vapor imagery just southeast
of Wichita, KS with movement toward the southeast. MUCAPE values
to the northeast of a frontal boundary (extending from central OK
into eastern TX) were a modest 500 to 1000+ via 14Z SPC
mesoanalysis data but were likely "tall/skinny" with PWAT values
compensating with estimated values near 2 inches within the
ongoing convective axis. VAD wind data showed 925-850 mb winds
overrunning the surface front with 25-35 kt of flow from the
southwest.

A recent southward push to thunderstorms over central OK were
minimizing the flash flood threat across that portion of the state
but new development downstream was showing signs of training with
the coldest cloud tops on IR imagery from eastern OK into western
AR. While forecasts from the RAP indicate a steady weakening of
the 825-850 mb flow into the 15-20 kt range by 19Z, areas of flash
flooding will be likely to sustain in the short term. Over the
next 3-4 hours, forcing for ascent will continue to come from a
combination of isentropic ascent atop the front, DPVA ahead of the
advancing vorticity max positioned over southern KS and diffluent
flow aloft within the anomalously moist environment. Hourly
rainfall of 1-2 inches will be common within areas of training but
isolated hourly totals of 2 to 3 inches may also occur. The
greatest concern will be from eastern OK into western AR where an
additional 2 to 4 inches of rain (locally higher) is expected
through 19Z.

NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD
1142 AM EDT Thu Aug 28 2025

Areas affected...ArkLaMiss into central MS and far western AL

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

Valid 281540Z - 282045Z

SUMMARY...Heavy rainfall may result in localized areas of flash
flooding across central MS in a northwest to southeast fashion,
possibly impacting small portions of AR/LA and AL. Training of
thunderstorms will be capable of 1-2 in/hr rainfall rates. Mostly
dry antecedent conditions should limit the greatest flash flood
risk to urban areas or other locations with poor drainage.

DISCUSSION...Area radar imagery at 1530Z showed a NW to SE
oriented axis of showers and embedded thunderstorms from central
AR into central MS, with KDGX radar reflectivity/velocity data
indicating an MCV to the northeast of Jackson over Leake County.
Areas of heavy rainfall aligned with an elevated 925-850 mb
convergence axis which was oriented northwestward from the MCV
feature over central MS. Deeper layer steering flow oriented
quasi-parallel to the convergence axis has supported periods of
training over the past few hours with MRMS-derived hourly totals
peaking in the 1-2 inch range over the past couple of hours
(mostly in the vicinity of I-20).

Short term RAP forecasts show the MCV tracking ESE toward western
AL over the next 3-5 hours with the trailing convergence axis
remaining from southeastern AR into central MS with a slow
southward drift. While moisture is high (12Z JAN sounding with 2.0
inches), elevated instability is a bit lacking within the ongoing
precipitation axis at ~500 J/kg or less via 15Z SPC mesoanalysis
data, but instability is higher to the south and increasing with
daytime heating. Despite the weak instability, the potential will
exist for localized flash flooding over the next 3-5 hours from
training and 1-2 in/hr rain rates. Storm total rainfall of 2-3
inches will be possible over a relatively short period of time.

303 PM EDT Thu Aug 28 2025

Areas affected...in and around ArkLaTex

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

Valid 281900Z - 290000Z

SUMMARY...A few areas of isolated flash flooding will be possible
from southeastern OK/northeastern TX into southern AR and northern
LA through 00Z. Localized instances of training should support
hourly rainfall of 1 to 2 inches with spotty hourly totals of 2 to
3 inches.

DISCUSSION...Radar imagery from 1830Z showed broken coverage of
thunderstorms extending from east-central OK into central AR, with
a reduction in rainfall intensity and training axes over the past
couple of hours, partially tied to a weakened low level jet. There
were embedded mesoscale circulations noted within the broader
precipitation shield, located out ahead of a low to mid-level
shortwave located near the MO/KS/AR/OK 4-state junction,
translating downstream. This region of convection was located to
the north of a well-defined stationary front, enhanced by
differential heating, which extended WNW to ESE from the Red River
Valley into southern MS. Low level flow of 10-20 kt was in place
over northern TX into northwestern LA via VAD wind plots,
supporting overrunning of the front with cells moving
quasi-parallel to the boundary toward the ESE, allowing for
localized training and repeating. Aloft, flow was diffluent,
aiding in vertical ascent across the ArkLaTx region.

Robust surface heating to the south of the front was aiding in a
sharp instability gradient with 1500+ J/kg MLCAPE from far
southeastern OK into eastern TX and central LA and PWATs were
close to 2 inches in and around the ArkLaTex via 18Z SPC
mesoanalysis data. Additional thunderstorms are expected to form
near the frontal boundary over the next 2-4 hours with a general
movement of cells off toward the ESE. While coverage of these
additional cells remains uncertain, ongoing upstream convection
over OK and AR should continue while advancing toward the
SE/ESE...out ahead of the upstream shortwave. Alignment of
boundaries and the mean steering flow will likely support a few
areas of at least brief training and 1 to 2 inches of rain within
an hour. However, higher hourly rainfall totals cannot be ruled
out and may contribute to localized areas of flash flooding where
training is able to persist for 1-2 hours.

A negative to flash flood potential is that most of the outlooked
area has received below average rainfall over the past 1-2 weeks
leading to high flash flood guidance values of 3 to 5+ inches in 3
hours. Therefore, the greatest flash flood risk will likely reside
within urban areas or other locations with poor drainage.

NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD
300 AM EDT Fri Aug 29 2025

Areas affected...Northeast TX...Far Southern AR...Northern and
Central LA...Central and Southern MS

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

Valid 290700Z - 291300Z

SUMMARY...Expanding bands of heavy showers and thunderstorms with
cell-training concerns are expected going through mid-morning.
This will gradually pose a concern for areas of flash flooding.

DISCUSSION...The latest GOES-E IR satellite imagery is gradually
showing an uptick in cooling convective tops near the Arklatex
region, and with additional broken bands of elevated convection
extending off to the southeast across northern LA and through
central MS.

A gradual increase in warm air advection/isentropic ascent is
noted on the poleward side of a quasi-stationary front and within
a very moist and moderately unstable airmass. MUCAPE values are as
high as 1000 to 2000 J/kg along the front involving eastern TX
through central LA, however, much of the elevated convection is
rooted within the instability gradient farther north along the
AR/LA border along with adjacent areas to the west and east. This
is also where there is some modest frontogenesis and related
forcing seen in the 925/850 mb layer. Meanwhile, the PWs are on
the order of 2.0 to 2.25 inches and suggestive of a very tropical
environment.

The flow aloft is becoming increasingly divergent as an
upper-level jet streak rounds into the base of the deeper layer
trough over the Mid-South/OH Valley region, and this should drive
a low-level response this morning with an additional increase and
gradual veering of the low-level flow across eastern TX and
central LA. This will interact with the aforementioned frontal
zone and promote stronger isentropic ascent and frontogenetical
forcing.

This along with the pool of instability that is available will
favor additional development and expansion of heavy showers and
thunderstorms with at least some loose organization given
proximity of 30 to 40 kts of effective bulk shear. Propagation
vectors are relatively weak which suggests there may be some
attempt at some backbuilding cells, and given the linear nature of
some of these elevated bands of convection, there will be concerns
for cell-training.

Rainfall rates will be very high and capable of reaching 2.5
inches/hour given the level of moisture and instability, and with
the backbuilding/cell-training concerns, some rainfall totals
going through mid-morning may reach 3 to 5+ inches.

A gradual southward advance of the overall convective footprint is
expected over the next several hours, but with these rains, there
may be areas of flash flooding that materialize and especially for
the more sensitive urban environments.

900 AM EDT Fri Aug 29 2025

Areas affected...eastern TX into LA and southern MS

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding likely

Valid 291259Z - 291730Z

SUMMARY...Localized to widely scattered areas of flash flooding
will remain likely early this morning, possibly extending into the
early afternoon from portions of eastern TX into LA and southern
MS. While coverage of flash flooding may be limited, the potential
for very high rates in excess of 3 in/hr will exist.

DISCUSSION...1240Z radar imagery showed elevated thunderstorms
from northeastern TX into central LA and southern MS with embedded
areas of training and MRMS-derived hourly rainfall of 2 to 3+
inches...mainly over the north-central TX/LA border and just north
of Alexandria, LA. The environment was characterized by very high
moisture (PWATs 2.2 to 2.5 inches) and 500-1000 J/kg MUCAPE via
12Z SPC mesoanalysis data. Rainfall has been efficient given this
environment with local 88D imagery showing cells containing low
echo centroid signatures and 15 minute rates over 1 inch per MRMS
and gauge data. An elevated convergence axis stretched
southeastward from northeastern TX and was being overrun by
925-850 mb winds of ~15 to 20 kt from the SW, favorably ascending
the boundary with deeper layer mean winds translating cells toward
the southeast.

An MCV-like feature appeared to be located between JAN and PIB,
with movement toward the east. The low level convergence axis has
been advancing slowly but steadily toward the south over
southwestern MS into central LA, limiting the coverage and
magnitude of rainfall rates. The boundary was also advancing over
TX, toward the southwest, but its orientation aligning more
favorably with the mean wind was supporting a locally enhanced
flash flood threat over northeastern TX as of 1240Z. This area
will continue to be a locally higher concern in the short term
with hourly rainfall of 2 to 3+ inches. Short term RAP forecasts
show weakening and further veering of the low level flow through
17Z which should tend to lessen the overrunning component from
central LA into MS, but some isolated areas of training will
remain along the elevated convergence axis.

The flash flood threat should linger a bit longer over eastern TX
into western LA where despite weakening low level winds into the
rest of the morning, high moisture and areas of training should
focus at least a localized flash flood concern over the next few
hours. Additional development of thunderstorms with the onset of
daytime heating across southwestern LA may also pose a flash flood
threat after 15Z with an added component related to the advancing
low level axis of convergence from the north.

Mesoscale Precipitation Discussion 1024
NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD
213 PM EDT Fri Aug 29 2025

Areas affected...southern Louisiana

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

Valid 291811Z - 292111Z

Summary...Brief/isolated flash flooding is possible across
southern Louisiana through 4p CDT/21Z.

Discussion...Over the last hour or so, a mesoscale convective
complex near Baton Rouge has increased in intensity while
migrating slowly southward. Additional cells were developing from
this complex southwestward toward Lake Charles, Lafayette, and
along I-10. These cells were migrating toward an abundantly
moist/unstable pre-convective airmass (2.3+ inch PW values, 3500
J/kg SBCAPE), supporting strong updrafts and efficient rainfall
rates within the most persistent activity. Despite southward
motions, areas of 1-2 inch/hr rain rates have been estimated per
MRMS near the Baton Rouge area. These rates may be enough to
support an isolated flash flood risk especially near urban/flash
flood prone areas across southern Louisiana.

Models/observations are all suggestive of a continued, yet slow
southward progression of the ongoing activity toward the Gulf
Coast through 4p CDT/21Z. Some of the heavier rain rates may
impact western portions of New Orleans Metro during that
timeframe. Flash flooding could occur with ongoing activity, but
should be isolated and focused on urban/sensitive areas. Areas of
1-2 inch/hr rain rates should continue, with higher rates/rainfall
totals possible near any localized areas of training/cell mergers.

Mesoscale Precipitation Discussion 1025
NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD
228 PM EDT Fri Aug 29 2025

Areas affected...New Mexico

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding likely

Valid 291828Z - 300028Z

Summary...Isolated flash flood potential should expand/increase
though 00Z/6p MDT this afternoon.

Discussion...Satellite and radar depict isolated thunderstorm
development primarily along favored ridgelines/high terrain from southern/southwestern through north-central New Mexico. The
storms have formed due to abundant surface heating beneath a
pronounced mid-level moisture plume across western and central
parts of the state. Flow aloft (strongest over the western parts
of the state) were supporting slow northeastward storm motions
with developing activity, although localized backbuilding was
already noted across south-central and southwestern New Mexico.=20
Where the backbuilding has been most pronounced (east of
Alamogordo), rain rates approaching 2 inches/hr have been
estimated per MRMS.

Given appreciable moisture values, weak mid-level disturbances,
and continued surface heating, conditions favor an expansion of
convective coverage through the afternoon and early evening hours
across the discussion area. Any downpours near existing burn
scars could promote a quickly evolving and locally significant
flash flood threat. Areas of 1-2 inch/hr rain rates are likely to
expand in tandem with increasing convective coverage, and the
highest rain rates are likely across the southeastern 1/2 of the
state where steering flow aloft is the weakest and tropospheric
moisture content highest.

Wind profiles across northeastern/east-central New Mexico favor
eventual growth into slow-moving clusters of storms that may
prompt a slightly higher concentration of flash flood instances
over time.

Mesoscale Precipitation Discussion 1026
NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD
403 PM EDT Fri Aug 29 2025

Areas affected...portions of southeastern Florida

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

Valid 292003Z - 300203Z

Summary...Isolated/urban flash flooding is possible through the
afternoon and early evening.

Discussion...Recent satellite/lightning imagery depicts rapid
development of deep convection along a sea breeze boundary just
west of Miami (near Kendall), with additional, scattered activity
located over the Everglades. The cells were forming in an
environment characterized by strong instability (2000+ J/kg
MLCAPE) and plenteous moisture content (1.8+ inch PW values).=20
These environmental parameters - combined with weak/negligible
tropospheric flow for steering) was promoting ongoing development.
The cell near Kendall was already producing estimated 1-2 inch/hr
rain rates, which isn't a surprise given its slow movement amid
abundant moisture/instability.

Models/CAMs suggest that ongoing development will continue to
expand in coverage an intensity given continued
heating/destabilization along the sea breeze, which was located
just inland along populated areas of southeastern Florida.=20
Additional areas of 1+ inch/hr rain rates are expected, which
could result in flash flooding in urban and low-lying areas. Much
of the flash flood risk should be diurnally driven, with weakening
expected from both 1) loss of surface heating and 2) stabilization
from scattered to widespread convective overturning across the
discussion area.

Mesoscale Precipitation Discussion 1027
NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD
647 PM EDT Fri Aug 29 2025

Areas affected...central/eastern Colorado, far western Kansas

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

Valid 292246Z - 300246Z

Summary...Scattered thunderstorm activity was backbuilding along
the I-25 corridor between Colorado Springs and Pueblo. A couple
instances of flash flooding are possible through 02Z/8p MDT.

Discussion...Recent radar mosaic imagery has depicted backbuilding
convection along a relatively focused axis extending from I-25
between Colorado Springs and Pueblo eastward to near State Highway
71. The storms are forming in a weak low-level-shear environment,
with 15-25F surface dewpoint depressions supporting mostly
outflow-dominant storms. Despite the tendency for outflow
dominance, upstream mid-level flow was aiding in maintaining

7C/km mid-level lapse rates, and an upstream mid-level

disturbance (evident via water vapor) was providing ascent aloft
while moving toward the discussion area. PW values near 1 inch
and the backbuilding character of convection was supporting
occasional rain rates exceeding 1 inch/hr in spots that were
beginning to exceed FFG thresholds on an isolated basis.

The ongoing scenario should support a localized flash flood threat
(tied to backbuilding convection) for a few hours this afternoon.=20 Models/CAMs suggest that ongoing activity will eventually pick up
more of an eastward component of motion while moving toward
eastern Colorado, supporting isolated flash flood potential
downstream of ongoing storms especially where mergers/training can
occur. The downstream airmass is slightly more favorable for
heavy rainfall given higher PW values (1.5 inch near the KS/CO
border). Isolated instances of flash flooding are possible in
this regime.

Mesoscale Precipitation Discussion 1028
NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD
829 PM EDT Fri Aug 29 2025

Areas affected...southern New Mexico, far southeastern Arizona

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

Valid 300028Z - 300328Z

Summary...Low-end/isolated flash flood potential continues for a
few more hours.

Discussion...Deep convection has materialized over the course of
the afternoon and produced isolated spots of 1-1.5 inch/hr rain
rates at times. Short-term trends indicate widespread convective
overturning that has stabilized the low-level airmass in most
areas. Despite stabilization, several areas of thunderstorms
continue across south-central New Mexico (near the Sacramento
Mountains) and along far northern Mexico (potentially drifting
northward toward the AZ/NM international border area over the next
1-2 hours). The pre-convective airmass supporting convection
continues to be moist and unstable, with 1-1.4 inch PW values and
500-1000 J/kg MLCAPE to support deep convection and isolated flash
flood potential.

With time, low-levels are expected to further stabilize with loss
of surface heating. The flash flood threat (already isolated)
should also progressively lower with time as well. Most of the
threat should wane after 03Z or so.

NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD
846 PM EDT Fri Aug 29 2025

Areas affected...eastern New Mexico, west Texas, Texas South
Plains/Panhandle, Oklahoma Panhandle

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

Valid 300045Z - 300545Z

Summary...Isolated instances of flash flooding are possible as
convection emanates eastward from the southern High Plains this
evening.

Discussion...Maturing convection over New Mexico has gradually
organized into clusters and linear segments while approaching the
NM/TX border region and portions of the Oklahoma Panhandle. The
storms were moving eastward toward a progressively more moist
airmass (1.6 inch PW values) and sufficient instability (1500 J/kg
SBCAPE) to sustain convection for at least 2-4 more hours.=20
Kinematic fields feature relatively weak steering flow aloft,
allowing for weak easterly/southeasterly cell movement driven
partially by local convective organization/evolution. Areas of 1
inch/hr rain rates are already estimated per MRMS, and the overall
radar presentation seems to suggest that mergers will gradually
become more frequent, increasing rain rates locally.

As cells move eastward deeper into the Texas/Oklahoma Panhandles
and Texas South Plains, they will migrate over regions of the
country that have FFG thresholds in the 2-3 inch/hr range (locally
lower). Furthermore, soil moisture profiles are a bit on the dry
side, suggestive of soils that can handle some of the impending
rainfall. The overall scenario suggests potential for isolated
flash flooding to occur especially in any sensitive/low-lying
spots. The risk may be locally maximized where mergers can
prolong heavy rainfall and boost local rain rates.

100 AM EDT Sat Aug 30 2025

Areas affected...Southeast NM...Western TX

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

Valid 300500Z - 300930Z

SUMMARY...Heavy showers and thunderstorms will continue to pose a
threat for some additional areas of flash flooding overnight.

DISCUSSION...The latest GOES-W IR satellite imagery shows
cold-topped convection continuing to evolve across portions of
southeast NM and western TX. In fact, the trends have shown an
uptick in convective organization with cooling cloud tops over
especially southeast NM where radar confirms a couple of
semi-linear bands of very heavy showers and thunderstorms.

MLCAPE values of 500 to 1000 J/kg remain in place which coupled
with subtle mid-level vort energy ejecting east out into the
southern High Plains is helping to maintain the ongoing convective
activity. However, cooling boundary layer temperatures and
convective overturning continue to put pressure on the instability
environment, and there should be a gradual weakening of the
overall convective footprint by later in the night.

PWs of 1.5 to 1.6+ inches are in place which is helping to yield
heavy rainfall rates of 1 to 2 inches/hour with the stronger
storms. These heavier rainfall rates coupled with locally slow
cell-motions and pockets of cell-training may foster some
additional isolated rainfall totals of 2 to 4+ inches. This is
supported by the 00Z HREF guidance.

These additional rains will support a threat for additional areas
of flash flooding going through the overnight hours. However, by
later tonight the convection should weaken sufficiently to allow
for the flash flooding threat to diminish.

Mesoscale Precipitation Discussion 1031
NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD
904 AM EDT Sat Aug 30 2025

Areas affected...eastern TX into southwestern LA

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding likely

Valid 301303Z - 301715Z

SUMMARY...Heavy to extreme rain rates over 3 in/hr are expected to
occur within localized pockets over portions of eastern TX and
southwestern LA over the next few hours. Areas of flash flooding
are likely to continue through 17Z.

DISCUSSION...1245Z radar imagery over the lower Sabine River
Valley showed a small cluster of thunderstorms west and northwest
of LCH with 3 Wunderground observation stations reporting 3+
inches of rain in an hour two stations showing 5 inches in an hour
through 12Z. Thunderstorm coverage was expanding NNW from
southwestern LA into portions of eastern TX along an elevated
(925-850 mb) convergence axis with low level flow intersecting the
boundary from the west. Some of the "strongest" low level flow was
located just south of the DFW Metroplex and over southwestern LA
with about 10-15 kt oriented nearly perpendicular to the elevated
convergence axis with mean layer winds directing cells slowly
toward the southeast. SPC mesoanalysis data from 12Z showed MUCAPE
values of 500-1500 J/kg coincident with PWATs of 2.1 to 2.3+
inches.

Short term forecasts from the RAP show the low level flow
maintaining over the next few hours but with gradual weakening
through 17Z which may act to disrupt organization late this
morning. However, the environment will remain supportive of highly
efficient rainfall production until then with pockets of extreme
rain rates possible (3+ in/hr) and localized storm totals in
excess of 5 inches through 17Z. Areas of flash flooding will be
likely and trends will be monitored for additional MPDs as needed
later this morning.
