Internal Message Status
Flash Flood Prediction Program

MESSAGE 1'S ISSUED FOR THE ENTIRE DISTRICT
-Message 1's have been issued for the entire District and will be valid until 10pm this evening. An upper level disturbance will move through this afternoon and is expected to produce isolated to widely scattered showers and thunderstorms into the evening. Strong thunderstorms will be capable of producing brief heavy rainfall.
-Showers and thunderstorms will move from SW to NE at around 20mph helping to limit point rainfall amounts from a single storm. Outflow boundaries from storms outside the District may help to anchor or slow down a stronger storm resulting in an extended period of heavy rainfall which may lead to excessive runoff.
-Best chances for thunderstorm activity will be through 9 or 10pm this evening. Beyond 10pm additional rain showers and weaker thunderstorms remain possible until about midnight.
STORM RAINFALL POTENTIAL AND DURATION: Rain showers and weak thunderstorms will produce a trace to 0.3" of rain. Moderate to strong thunderstorms will have the potential to produce 0.3-0.9" in 10-30 minutes.

WORST CASE SCENARIO: Moisture levels remain higher than anticipated resulting in moderate to strong thunderstorms with the potential to produce heavy rainfall of 0.5-1.5" in 10-30 minutes and up to 2.5" in 45-60 minutes.
