-------------------------
MESSAGES 1’S HAVE BEEN ISSUED EFFECTIVE UNTIL 10:00 PM
Message 1’s have been issued for the entire District effective
until 10:00pm this evening.
Storms have started to initiate to the west already today and will
likely continue into the afternoon with a couple of rounds of
showers/thunderstorms possible for the District today. Elevated dew
points, currently in the upper 50s to nearly 60 will result in
efficient rainfall producing storms this afternoon and evening with a
good chance for moderate to heavy rainfall for some locations leading
to localized flooding.
This initial round of storms will meander into the District over the
next hour or so, with additional showers and thunderstorms likely
forming along outflow boundaries into the afternoon. Storm motions
will generally be west to east around 10mph, however, storms formed
along outflow boundaries will have the largest potential for heavy
rainfall as they tend to anchor in place for extended periods. Storms
today may also contain gusty winds up to 60mph and hail up to 1.0”
resulting in a LOW chance for severe weather, likely favoring eastern
portions of the District.
There will be an additional round of showers and thunderstorms later
this evening, similar to yesterday between 7-10pm. Due to excess
moisture in place, and good upper-level support, there will be a
continued chance for moderate to heavy rainfall into the late evening
hours. A few off and on showers will be possible overnight, although
the threat of heavy rainfall should diminish after 10pm. Overnight
will be cloudy as low temperatures drop into the low 60s on the
plains.
STORM RAINFALL POTENTIAL AND DURATION: Typical showers/thunderstorms
today will produce 0.10-0.50" total in 10-30 minutes. Moderate to
strong thunderstorms will produce up to 0.50-1.00” total in 10-30
minutes.
WORST CASE SCENARIO: Stationary thunderstorms, or training of
thunderstorm cells have the potential to produce up to 2.00” total
in 30-60 minutes.
