Time: 848 AM Sat September 2, 2023 Forecaster: Justin Brooks ------------------------- Heavy Precipitation Outlook Flash Flood Prediction Program ------------------------- HOT AGAIN WITH DRY CONDITIONS LIKELY Very little change to the overall pattern today as southwesterly flow aloft continues, resulting in dry conditions today. A very slight chance for a few high-based showers/isolated thunderstorms along the Continental Divide this afternoon and early evening with any precipitation mixing out before moving into the District. High temperatures this afternoon will reach the low to mid 90s. This evening will continue mild and dry with overnight temperatures dropping into the 60s. STORM RAINFALL POTENTIAL AND DURATION: No precipitation is expected today or this evening. A LOOK AHEAD: High pressure starts to break down tomorrow leading to a good chance for widespread showers/thunderstorms with at least a LOW chance for brief moderate to heavy rainfall within the District. At this time, the largest threat would be a quick 0.5” in 10-15 minutes as storm motions between 10-20mph are expected to help limit point rainfall amounts. A couple of rounds of storms will be possible with the first in the afternoon, likely between 1-4pm with another round into the evening between 6-9pm. Skies will gradually clear overnight tomorrow with mild conditions heading into Monday. A slight chance for showers/isolated thunderstorms Monday, however, the threat of heavy rainfall will be minimal at best. MONITOR NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE FOR SEVERE WEATHER STATEMENTS.
