Flash Flood Prediction Program

Time: 814 AM Mon September 30, 2024 Forecaster: Aaron O'Brien ------------------------- Heavy Precipitation Outlook Flash Flood Prediction Program ------------------------- Dry, Warm, and Breezy conditions Highs today will be in the mid 80s, slightly cooler than yesterday’s record tying 92°F. Precipitable water values are lower than yesterday again, 0.40” to 0.50”, and similar dew points with mid 30s. The combination of these values and the lack of any sort of upward vertical motion in the atmosphere should result in no chance in precipitation, let alone Message level rainfall. Lows tonight will drop the low to mid 40s in the plains and upper 30s to low 40s for the foothills. STORM RAINFALL POTENTIAL AND DURATION: No rainfall is expected within the District today. A LOOK AHEAD: Tomorrow should be cooler than today with highs in upper 70s to low 80s, but no moisture was introduced from today’s passing cold front which should keep The District dry. Wednesday’s possible record warmth and much warmer temperatures for the rest of the week and into the weekend should help continue the dry conditions, and with the lack of any new moisture or upper atmospheric support should put the nail in the coffin for any possible precipitation. Today is the final day for weather coverage from Skyview Weather. Thank you for another great season!
