EXCESSIVE RAINFALL DISCUSSION  
NWS WEATHER PREDICTION CENTER COLLEGE PARK MD  
700 PM EST SAT JAN 18 2025  
 
DAY 1  
VALID 01Z SUN JAN 19 2025 - 12Z SUN JAN 19 2025  
 
...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF EXCESSIVE RAINFALL ACROSS MUCH OF  
NORTH FLORIDA AND SOME SURROUNDING PORTIONS OF GEORGIA AND  
ALABAMA...  
   
..01Z UPDATE  
 
A SMALL TRIMMING ON THE SOUTHERN SIDE OF THE INHERITED MARGINAL  
RISK WAS DONE WITH NO RAIN EXPECTED IN THIS AREA UNTIL THE HEAVIEST  
RAIN PUSHES THROUGH VERY LATE TONIGHT/EARLY TOMORROW MORNING.  
OTHERWISE, THE MARGINAL RISK AREA WAS MAINTAINED. THE AREAS SEEING  
LIGHT TO MODERATE RAIN NOW MAY SEE A BRIEF PERIOD OF HEAVIER RAINS  
AS A LINE OF HEAVIER SHOWERS AND STORMS MOVES THROUGH LATE TONIGHT,  
WHICH IS WHAT THE MARGINAL RISK IS BEING MAINTAINED FOR. OTHERWISE  
THE LATEST GUIDANCE HAS LARGELY REMAINED THE SAME. THIS AREA  
REMAINS A LOWER-END MARGINAL RISK WITH ONLY AN ISOLATED INSTANCE OR  
2 OF FLASH FLOODING POSSIBLE IN ANY LOW-LYING OR FLOOD-PRONE  
AREAS.

..PREVIOUS DISCUSSION  
 
A CORRIDOR OF MOISTURE CONVERGENCE IN THE WARM SECTOR OF A  
DEVELOPING SOUTHEAST U.S. SURFACE LOW, IN THE PRESENCE OF PWS ON  
THE ORDER OF 1.5 TO 1.75 INCHES, WILL FUEL THE DEVELOPMENT OF  
MULTIPLE ROUNDS OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS NORTHERN  
FLORIDA AND ACROSS THE SOUTHERN TIER OF COUNTIES IN GEORGIA. THE  
MAJORITY OF THE HEAVIER RAINFALL SHOULD HAPPEN BETWEEN 00Z AND 12Z  
SUNDAY WHEN MIXED LAYER CAPE RISES INTO THE 250-750 J/KG RANGE WITH  
SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW FROM THE EASTERN GULF. THIS COULD RESULT IN  
RAINFALL RATES IN EXCESS OF AN INCH PER HOUR WITH THE MOST  
PERSISTENT CELLS. SOME OF THE CAM GUIDANCE INDICATES SWATHS OF 2-3  
INCH QPF DURING THIS PERIOD, AND THIS MAY LEAD TO SOME MINOR  
INSTANCES OF FLOODING IN POOR DRAINAGE AREAS. THE AXIS OF HEAVY  
RAINFALL IS EXPECTED TO BECOME MORE PROGRESSIVE BY 12Z SUNDAY AND  
BEYOND ACROSS THE CENTRAL FLORIDA PENINSULA.
