MESSAGE 1’S HAVE BEEN ISSUED FOR THE ENTIRE DISTRICT
Message 1’s have been issued for the entire District effective
until 1159pm.
A few isolated storms are starting to initiate along the foothills
currently and will continue to build over the next hour or two before
moving into the District. Multiple rounds of strong to severe storms
will be possible today with a good chance for heavy rainfall leading
to localized flooding through the afternoon and evening.
Typical storm movements will be from W/SW to E/NE between 5-10mph.
Some erratic storm movements will be possible as storms form and stall
out along outflow boundaries. These storms will likely have the
highest chance of producing longer lasting heavy rainfall. Storms
today will have the potential to produce both a quick 0.5” in 10
minutes as well as over 1” per hour rainfall if a storm stalls out
for an extended time, or training of thunderstorms cells.
Storm intensities should diminish after midnight tonight. However, if
the heavy rainfall threat persists past midnight, Message 1’s may
need to be extended.
STORM RAINFALL POTENTIAL AND DURATION: Typical thunderstorms have the
potential to produce moderate to heavy rainfall of 0.25-0.50" total,
in 10-30 minutes. Strong thunderstorms have the potential to produce
moderate to heavy rainfall of 0.5-1.5" total, in 10-30 minutes.
WORST CASE SCENARIO: Stationary or training of slow-moving
thunderstorms have the potential
to produce up to 2.4” total, in 45-60 minutes.
