Heavy Precipitation Outlook
Flash Flood Prediction Program
-------------------------
Hot with isolated showers this afternoon and evening.
Hot conditions will return today as the heat dome expands again
across the Desert Southwest. High temperatures will soar into the mid
to upper 90s across the District. Dewpoints will be in the mid to
upper 40s with precipitable water (PWAT) values around 0.65”.
High-based gusty showers and thunderstorms are expected to develop
this afternoon. However, storm coverage is expected to be isolated and
therefore less than yesterday. Storm motions will be from west to east
around 25 mph.
STORM RAINFALL POTENTIAL AND DURATION: Thunderstorms today have the
potential to produce up to 0.10” in 10-30 minutes.
WORST CASE SCENARIO: Strong thunderstorms may be capable of producing
0.25” 30 minutes or less.
A LOOK AHEAD: A more active pattern emerges tomorrow as elevated
moisture levels and favorable upper-level winds support chances for
scattered thunderstorms during the afternoon and evening. High
temperatures will be in the low to mid 90s with dew points around
50°F, supporting better chances for more meaningful precipitation
across the District.
