COVERAGE AND INTENSITY OF PRECIP INCREASES INTO THURSDAY. WHILE
INSTABILITY LOOKS FAIRLY LIMITED, INCREASINGLY STRONG DEEP LAYER
WIND FIELDS WILL SUPPORT A LOW-END THREAT OF SEVERE STORMS BOTH
WED NIGHT AND THURSDAY, ESPECIALLY SOUTH OF I-40 IN CLOSER
PROXIMITY TO THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY WHICH LIFTS BACK NORTH.
DEEP MOISTURE WILL CONTINUE TO SPREAD NORTH WITH PRECIPITABLE
WATER NEARING RECORD LEVELS ANTICIPATED BY THURSDAY, WITH STRONGER
FORCING SPREADING EAST RESULTING IN WIDESPREAD SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS WITH POTENTIAL FOR QUITE HEAVY RAIN RATES IN ANY
THUNDERSTORMS. THE RESULT IS LIKELY WIDESPREAD RAINFALL AMOUNTS
OF 1-3" AND SOME LOCALLY GREATER AMOUNTS. FLASH FLOOD THREAT IS
LIKELY TO REMAIN LOCALIZED DUE TO ANTECEDENT DRY CONDITIONS, BUT
HE HIGH RATES COULD CERTAINLY LEAD TO FLOODING OF SMALLER STREAMS
AND URBAN AREAS.
BULK OF THE PRECIP SHOULD MOVE EAST BY LATE THURSDAY AND FRIDAY
AS UPPER WAVE MOVES EAST AND A COLD FRONT MOVES THROUGH. TEMPS
WILL BE COOLER FOR THE WEEKEND BUT STILL SEVERAL DEGREES ABOVE
NORMAL. ANOTHER UPPER LOW ON TRACK TO IMPACT THE REGION EARLY
