    Mesoscale Precipitation Discussion 1239
    NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD
    744 AM EST Fri Nov 21 2025

    Areas affected...Southern California

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 211245Z - 211830Z

    SUMMARY...Risk of slow moving, narrow updrafts capable of
    .75"-1"/hr rates likely to continue to a few more hours. Isolated
    1-2" totals in/near urban locations in SoCal suggest localized
    flash flooding remains possible.

    DISCUSSION...A well-defined closed low is parked directly over
    southern California with an upstream highly anomalous
    shortwave/vorticity center descending southward along the western
    periphery of the low. This and favorable cyclonically curved
    geography of the coast and mountain ranges will help to keep
    surface to boundary layer cyclone relatively stationary for the
    next few hours just along/south of Long Beach, CA. The cold front
    and associated warm conveyor have pressed eastward into far NW
    Baja California (state) of Mexico before angling through Imperial
    Valley and lower Colorado River Valley. However, the western
    branch of the TROWAL and occluded front remain banked up against
    the Orange county and San Diego county beaches.=20

    GOES-W WV suite shows the core of the upper-level jet remains
    south near the San Diego country border with Mexico, allowing for
    solid cyclonically curved left exit ascent across much of SoCal
    providing solid ascent for updrafts that do develop with the solid
    surface/low level moisture convergence. The limiting factor will
    likely be unstable air/vertical ascent through convective
    processes. MUCAPEs have dropped to around 500 J/kg but are now
    mostly driven through cold advection aloft. The upstream
    shortwave will dull this advection for a few hours but may allow
    the lapse rates to maintain this weak 250-500 J/kg instability.=20=20
    As such, updrafts are likely to remain isolated and generally
    narrow, though with isallobaric response to the updraft, moisture
    convergence should allow for the .75-.9" total PWats (loaded
    mainly below 700mb) to support rates of .75-1"/hr.=20

    As such, a localized 1-2" total still remains possible for the
    next few hours. Naturally low FFG and/or urban hydrophobic
    conditions will result in solid run-off and maintain a risk of
    widely scattered incident or two of possible flash flooding
    through the morning.=20=20

    It is also possible (more likely toward 16-18z) that a few
    showers/cells may try to develop with some weak clearing through
    the Imperial Valley along the western branch of the TROWAL. These
    cells would be also similarly slow moving but likely translating
    NW rather than NE as with the coastal cells; but there is less
    certainty with that evolution and a secondary MPD may be required
    if trends continue to improve.=20=20

    Mesoscale Precipitation Discussion 1240
    NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD
    831 AM EST Fri Nov 21 2025

    Areas affected...Inland Deserts of Southern California and Lower
    Colorado River Valley...

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 211330Z - 211930Z

    SUMMARY...Prolonged moderate rain with embedded very weak showers
    capable of .3-.5"/hr rates. Scattered 1-1.5" totals pose longer
    duration flash flooding concerns (3-6hr exceedance).

    DISCUSSION...GOES-W WV suite shows core of deep upper-low has
    wobbled over the LA Basin, but a strong upstream shortwave along
    the western periphery of the upper-level closed low is digging
    sharply resulting an combined effect of tightening the overall
    flow across the deep cyclone while keeping the downstream older
    center stationary over the next 6-12hr. As a result, the core of
    the Atmospheric River will remain focused on NW Baja California
    before cyclonically turning (fairly sharply) through the Imperial
    Valley into the Mojave Deserts back toward the Tehachapi Range and
    southern San Joaquin Valley.=20

    CIRA LPW prior to the local outage showed a fairly strong sfc to
    850 and 850-700mb signal with 95th-99th percentile signals in each
    layer, combine that with some increase in the surface to 850mb
    layer from favorable southerly flow off the warm Sea of Cortez and
    total PWats remain at or slightly above 1" into the Imperial
    Valley and as high as .75" into the San Joaquin Valley. VWP and
    RAP analysis suggest strong cyclonic curvature but also 20-30kts
    of flux. So while there is sub-100 J/kg of instability, the
    vertical ascent through the strengthening western branch of the
    TROWAL suggests highly anomalous flux to maintain moderate showery
    activity through the deserts. Rates of .33"/hr are more probable,
    but an isolated rate of .5" is not impossible. Still, persistent
    weakly banded features will result in tracks of 1-1.5" totals in a
    3-6hr time period, so any isolated, enhanced vertical cell within
    the core may result in quicker stream/arroyo rises. FFG values
    being only .5"/hr and less than 1"/3hr and less than 1.5-2"/6hrs)
    suggest a few scattered incidents of 'flash' flooding are
    considered possible through early afternoon.

    While less certainty, there are CAMs suggesting some filtered
    insolation may be possible in the morning. Near zero inhibition
    through the profiles, suggest embedded widely scattered convective
    elements may evolve in the 16-19z time period, particularly closer
    to the warmer heat source of the Sea of Cortez across the Lower
    Colorado and southern Imperial Valley. Given the digging wave
    upstream off the SW CA coast, upstream winds may be favorable for
    some potential upstream redevelopment/back-building environment.=20
    Will continue to monitor those trends for any additional MPD later
    toward the afternoon.=20=20

    Mesoscale Precipitation Discussion 1241
    NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD
    559 PM EST Sat Nov 22 2025

    Areas affected...portions of central and southeast AZ

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 222258Z - 230458Z

    Summary...Convection continues to grow in coverage across portions
    of central and southeast AZ. Hourly rain amounts up to 1" with
    local amounts to 2" could lead to isolated to widely scattered
    issues in arroyos/dry washes, burn scars, and box canyons.

    Discussion...Infrared satellite imagery shows cooling cloud tops
    in association with showers and thunderstorms across central and
    southeast AZ within a region of 700 hPa confluence ahead of a
    progressive deep layer low, with some recent uptick in coverage.=20
    A first pixels of 0.5" an hour amounts were indicated recently
    from the Phoenix and Tucson AZ radars in association with their
    rainfall. Pockets of 500+ J/kg of MU CAPE exist across
    west-central and southeast AZ per SPC mesoanalyses, with
    instability increasing due to cooling aloft and some degree of
    daytime heating/sunshine, particularly across southeast AZ.=20
    Effective bulk shear of 30-50 kts exists here, which is leading to
    an environment with both organized and ordinary convective cells,
    with the organized activity edging east of due north while the
    less organized storms move just west of due north. Precipitable
    water values of 0.5-1" lie here. The atmosphere is cool, with
    1000-500 hPa thickness values of 5550-5600 meters. When combined
    with the available moisture, the column is approaching saturation.

    The mesoscale guidance implies increasing convective coverage and
    an increasing incidence of 0.5"+ an hour amounts over the next
    several hours, with the 12z REFS and 18z HREF guidance suggesting
    the heaviest rainfall in the 01-05z time frame. This could be due
    to cell training, occasional mesocyclone formation, or cell
    mergers between more and less organized convective activity. As
    the upper level system continues marching northeast, winds should
    veer somewhat which should allow convection to shift somewhat to
    the east with time, with activity shifting increasingly into
    mountainous areas. With hourly amounts to 1" and local totals to
    2" possible, the incidence of impactful heavy rain is expected to
    be isolated to widely scattered, mainly within arroyos/dry washes,
    box canyons, and any area burn scars.

    Areas affected...portions of central and southeast AZ

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 222259Z - 230459Z

    SUMMARY...Repeating and brief training of cells could result in
    localized flash flooding across far eastern KY into WV and far
    southern OH over the next few hours. Additional rainfall of 1-2
    inches will be possible through 01Z, falling atop 1-2 inches of
    rain which fell over the past 12 hours.

    DISCUSSION...Regional radar imagery and cooling cloud tops on GOES
    East infrared imagery has shown an increase in rainfall intensity
    across eastern KY over the past 2 hours, attributed to increasing
    instability. Mostly clear skies located south of an outflow
    boundary (located from south of SME, east-northeastward into
    south-central WV between CRW and BKW) have allowed MLCAPE to
    increase into the 500 to 1000+ J/kg range over southeastern KY as
    roughly 30 kt of southwesterly 850 mb flow overruns the boundary.
    Average cell motions have been fast with ~40 kt from the WSW,
    limiting rainfall over any given location, but that rainfall has
    been intense with 0.3 to 0.5 inches in 15 minutes observed.

    A flash flood concern may expand eastward into WV through the
    early evening as instability increases into the southern half of
    WV, through the continued advection of low level moisture and at
    least brief additional heating under clearing skies in southern
    WV. Some backing of low level flow is forecast by the RAP and as
    moist/unstable air continues to overrun the rain-cooled boundary,
    additional storms are expected to form upstream in KY and advance
    downstream into WV. There will likely be some repeating cells and
    perhaps some brief training although uncertainty remains on the
    degree of training into the evening. Given 1 to 2 inches of rain
    which impacted western and central WV over the past 12 hours, an
    inch or two of additional rainfall through 01Z may result in some
    localized flash flooding atop sensitive grounds.

    Areas affected...Edwards Plateau/Concho Valley in TX

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 232352Z - 240552Z

    Summary...A band of thunderstorms is trying to consolidate and is
    expected to continue to slowly lengthen with time. Hourly rain
    amounts to 2" with local totals to 4" are possible through 06z.

    Discussion...A broken band of thunderstorms stretches from near
    Fort Stockton northeast towards Big Spring TX within the tail end
    of the warm conveyor belt of a deep layer low centered in the
    vicinity of southeast CO. Precipitable water values are up to
    0.9-1.2" per recent GPS data. MU/ML CAPE of 1500-2000 J/kg exists
    in the vicinity of the band's tail, with the 6C 700 hPa isotherm
    appearing to act as its southern limit. Effective bulk shear is
    significant, 50-70 kts, which has led to mesocyclone formation.=20
    Right-moving cells appear to be causing some eastward shift with
    time. Occasional backbuilding to near/slightly south of I-10 has
    been noted at times.

    RAP guidance shows an uptick in moisture and low-level inflow from
    the Gulf and existing convection over the next several hours,
    which should act to solidify and lengthen the band somewhat, aid
    precipitation efficiency, and causing the polar warm front to slow
    its northeast advance from the Pecos River valley. Mesocyclones
    along the existing, solidifying band are expected to cause cell
    training as they hold up portions of the convective band to the
    east-northeast, which could lead to hourly amounts to 2" and local
    totals to 4" as cells move just right of the mean 850-400 hPa flow
    in a general east-northeast direction. The combination of a
    broadening cold pool and slowly veering 850 hPa flow associated
    with an impinging front/pseudo dryline leads to increased forward
    progression of the band to the east to east-southeast. Portions
    of this region saw heavy rainfall Wednesday and Thursday, which
    has lowered 3 hourly flash flood guidance values to 2-3", which
    should be achievable in isolated to widely scattered spots. The
    12z REFS and 18z HREF were advised for the area outlined. Flash
    flooding is considered possible through 06z/midnight CST.

    Areas affected...lower Pecos Valley into north-central TX

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding likely

    Valid 240550Z - 241015Z

    Summary...An axis of SW to NE thunderstorms is expected to train,
    likely resulting in areas of flash flooding from the lower Pecos
    Valley into portions of north-central TX through 10Z. Hourly
    rainfall of 1-2 inches should be common, but isolated hourly
    totals in excess of 2 inches cannot be ruled out.

    Discussion...Regional radar imagery at 0530Z across TX showed the
    recent development of thunderstorms across the lower Pecos River
    Valley from SW to NE, crossing I-10 a couple of miles west of
    where US-190 meets I-10. Additional thunderstorms extended
    northeastward across I-20 between Abilene and Ranger. MLCAPE was
    500 to 1500+ J/kg via 05Z SPC mesoanalysis data though most of the
    region was capped. The eastward motion of a mid to upper level
    closed low/trough to the west has allowed sufficient lift to
    overcome a capping inversion noted on the 00Z DRT sounding,
    although the capping inversion is likely weaker to the north of
    DRT. The storms were located out ahead of a weak Pacific cold
    front analyzed over western TX at 05Z, along an axis of
    convergence represented the leading edge of low level moisture
    transport marked by 30-40 kt of flow per area VAD wind data in the
    925-850 mb layer. Some right-entrance region ascent is also likely
    present south of a 100 kt jet max located on the eastern side of
    the closed low/trough.

    Lift ahead of the eastward moving closed low/trough will continue
    to support the expansion of numerous thunderstorms over portions
    of west-central to north-central TX through 09Z. Thunderstorm
    alignment is expected from SW to NE, along the similarly oriented
    low level convergence axis, with mean steering flow paralleling
    the axis of convergence, supportive of training. Slow overall
    movement is especially likely where the leading edge of low level
    transport meets the approaching zone of lift from the west, closer
    to the Rio Grande, where eastward movement of the axis of forcing
    is expected to be slowest. However, coverage of thunderstorms with
    southward extent is a bit uncertain. The environment supports
    hourly rainfall of 1-2 inches but isolated hourly totals over 2
    inches should be attainable where thunderstorm axes are slower to
    translate east. Areas of flash flooding are likely to result,
    although coverage may be somewhat limited across the MPD threat
    area through 10Z.

    513 AM EST Mon Nov 24 2025

    Areas affected...central TX into southeastern OK/southwestern AR

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding likely

    Valid 241012Z - 241515Z

    Summary...Flash flooding is likely to continue for portions of
    central TX into southeastern OK/southwestern AR, at least on a
    localized basis, through the morning commute (through 15Z/9 AM
    CST). Hourly rainfall of 1 to 2+ inches will remain likely within
    areas of training and at least isolated/urban flash flooding will
    be likely in a couple of areas.

    Discussion...Radar imagery from 10Z showed a SW to NE axis of
    heavy rain that extended from near San Angelo to Graham,
    containing MRMS-derived hourly rainfall of 1 to 2 inches and has
    had a history of observed 15 minute rates between 0.5 and 1.0
    inches. The axis of thunderstorms was located along the leading
    edge of 30-40 kt of southerly 925-850 mb winds, which veered and
    weakened to the west, forming a SW to NE axis of convergence that
    has largely coincided with the line of thunderstorms over central
    to northern TX since 06Z. With the exception of the far southern
    edge of the line, the thunderstorms were mostly elevated above a
    stable layer north of a warm front that draped NW to SE across
    central TX to the Upper TX Coast. The environment contained ML/MU
    CAPE values of 500-1500 J/kg and precipitable water values of 1.3
    to 1.5 inches per 09Z SPC mesoanalysis data and these values are
    expected to continue to be in place as the system translates east
    to northeast.

    Short term forecasts from the RAP show the low level convergence
    axis translating eastward through 15Z, oriented parallel to
    southwesterly mean steering flow, which will continue to support
    areas of training over the next 3-5 hours. North of the Red River,
    instability is expected to be weaker (<1000 J/kg) which may limit
    rainfall intensities, but lift will be augmented by the
    right-entrance region of a 90-110 kt upper level jet max located
    on the eastern side of a upper level closed low/trough to the
    west.

    Therefore, while not everyone will see 1 to 2 inches of rain in an
    hour, SW to NE axes of heavy rain will continue to impact portions
    of central TX into southeastern OK/southwestern AR through 9 A.M.
    local time, which will could impact the morning rush, especially
    if overlap of high rain rates occurs with urban locations, such as
    the Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex within the next 1 to 3 hours.
    Additional rainfall for many should be 1 to 2 inches but peak
    values through 15Z of 2 to 3 inches will likely occur.

    Areas affected...portions of northeast Texas, northwestern
    Louisiana

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 241608Z - 242208Z

    Summary...Areas of training/repeating thunderstorms should result
    in local 2-4 inch rainfall totals through 22Z/4p Central. Flash
    flooding is possible - especially where these heavy rainfall
    totals can occur in sensitive and/or urban areas.

    Discussion...A complex convective scenario is ongoing across
    portions of Texas and Louisiana this morning. A mature linear
    segment (extending from near Hot Springs, AR south-southwestward
    to near Longview, TX) was forward propagating eastward while
    producing areas of 0.5-1.0 inch/hr rain rates. An outflow
    boundary from this activity extends westward from Longview to near
    Waco, where another well-organized linear complex was moving
    eastward and also producing 0.5-1.5 inch/hr rain rates.

    Flash flood potential will reside between these two linear
    complexes over the next 4-6 hours. The east-west oriented outflow
    will interact favorably with enhanced low-level flow (30+ kt at
    850 oriented perpendicular to the boundary), resulting in
    repeating rounds of rainfall. Furthermore, heating along and
    south of a synoptic warm front across east Texas (from near Waco
    to near Lake Charles) will also aid in destabilizing to support
    strengthening convection throughout the discussion area. The
    overall scenario supports areas of 2-4 inch rainfall totals.

    Fortunately, hourly FFG thresholds across most of the discussion
    area are in the 3+ inch range where the heaviest rainfall is
    expected. These thresholds may not be exceeded on a widespread
    basis - although this depends somewhat on specific convective
    evolution also. Isolated to scattered instances of flash flooding
    are expected - particularly where the greatest rainfall can occur
    over low-lying and/or urban areas.=20=20

    Areas affected...portions of southeastern Texas, including Houston
    Metropolitan

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 241648Z - 242048Z

    Summary...A cluster of thunderstorms has developed just west of
    Houston Metropolitan. Areas of 1 inch/hr rates have been
    estimated. These rates should spread/develop east-northeastward
    over the next 2-4 hours, possibly prompting excessive runoff
    especially in urban areas.

    Discussion...Scattered thunderstorms have developed along a
    pre-frontal confluence axis located west of Houston Metro over the
    past 1-2 hours. These cells are exhibiting rapid intensification
    as evidenced by robust lightning concentrations and cooling cloud
    tops via satellite. The storms are in an environment
    characterized by 3500 J/kg SBCAPE and 1.6 inch PW values, both
    supporting locally heavy rain. Furthermore, the cells are in a
    very weakly capped environment with subtle ascent aloft passing
    over the area from weak mid-level waves ahead of a larger-scale
    mid/upper trough over the Texas Panhandle. Each of these features
    along with strong vertical wind shear are supportive of convective
    longevity and modest increases in convective coverage over the
    next 2-4 hours.

    Rain rates of 1-1.5 inch/hr were estimated in a couple spots
    beneath the convection recently. Additional convective
    development and training should result in more areas of 1.5
    inch/hr rain rates over time, with some of this activity reaching
    perhaps northern sides of Houston Metro. Additionally, the
    presence of a warm front over the area may encourage instances of
    right-moving cells -and- mergers, further enhancing local flash
    flood potential. Direct impacts to Houston Metro are still in
    question currently, but cannot be ruled out as storms continue to
    mature. At least isolated instances of flash flooding are
    possible in this regime.

    459 PM EST Mon Nov 24 2025

    Areas affected...east-central/northeast Texas, western Louisiana,
    and southern Arkansas

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 242158Z - 250358Z

    Summary...Areas of training thunderstorm continue to support 1-2.5
    inch/hr rainfall rates at times. These rain rates should support
    at least isolated instances of flash flooding through the evening.

    Discussion...Flash flood potential continues across the discussion
    area. This afternoon, several areas of scattered thunderstorms
    (organized into clusters and small linear segments) have migrated
    west to east across the discussion area. Over the past hour, and
    uptick in convective intensity has been noted across central Texas
    along and east of the I-45 corridor. An impressive 2.53 inch/hr
    rain rates was measured at Athens, TX during that time. Cells are
    being influenced by 1) a stout mid-level shortwave trough via
    water vapor that was advancing toward the region from west-central
    Texas and 2) confluent low-level flow, which was maintaining 1.7
    inch PW and 1000+ J/kg MUCAPE across the discussion area. THe
    storms were not congealed into a forward-propagating linear
    segment, with localized axes of training continuing to support
    heavier rainfall. FFG thresholds continue to range in the 2-3.5
    inch/hr range, suggesting that the bulk of the flash flood threat
    will likely remain tied to urban and/or sensitive areas in the
    short term.

    Over time, ongoing convective activity will shift eastward through
    the TX/LA border region (including Shreveport Metro), with spots
    of 1-3 inch/hr rain rates continuing. A cold front was making
    slow progress to the east across central Texas, reducing stability
    and ending the convective/flash flood threat from the west. This
    front will translate eastward, reaching the TX/LA border area near
    Shreveport in the 04-05Z timeframe. Flash flooding will be a
    distinct possibility through at least that timeframe.

    Areas affected...northern LA into southeastern AR and
    central/northern MS

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 250356Z - 250810Z

    Summary...Areas of flash flooding will remain possible from
    northern LA into southeastern AR and central/northern MS over the
    next few hours. Peak hourly rainfall values of 1 to 3 inches are
    expected within axes of training.

    Discussion...A broken squall line was observed through radar
    imagery at 0330Z from southeastern AR into northern/western LA and
    far eastern TX. This feature was located out ahead of an
    approaching shortwave and embedded vorticity max which extended
    from northeastern TX into southeastern OK, moving toward the ENE.
    Low level convergence, ahead of the associated surface cold front
    and along/north of the system's warm front, was helping to focus
    the SW to NE oriented axis of thunderstorms which has had a
    history of training and 1 to 3 inches of rain per hour since at
    least 01Z. The lower MS Valley also resided beneath the diffluent
    right entrance region of a 100 to 120+ kt jet max centered over
    the central MO/IL border which was aiding lift within the moist
    (1.5-1.7 inch PWs) and unstable (500-1500 J/kg MUCAPE) environment.

    As the shortwave and embedded vorticity max continue to advance
    downstream toward the ENE, The axis of thunderstorms will follow
    suit, with areas of embedded training within the SW to NE oriented
    mean steering flow. The environment will continue to support peak
    hourly rainfall of 1 to 3 inches at times, which is below FFG
    values for southern portions of this MPD, but at or above it for
    AR into northern MS. Therefore, the flash flood threat is
    considered possible and should be mainly confined to urban or
    otherwise sensitive locations where 2 to 4 inches of rain could
    fall in 3 hours or less time.

    Areas affected...northern LA/MS border into central MS/northern AL

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 250823Z - 251400Z

    Summary...While the overall flash flood coverage looks to decrease
    later this morning across MS and AL, concerns remain for localized
    2 to 3+ inch totals from hourly rainfall of 1 to 2+ inches. A
    threat of flash flooding will linger through 14Z.

    Discussion...08Z radar imagery showed an axis of strong
    thunderstorms extending from western LA near DRI, northeastward
    into central/northern MS. The most powerful section of this axis
    was in western MS, between TVR and JAN, where some of the
    strongest low level winds were observed with near 50 kt at 850 mb
    from the south. A low level confluence axis from western LA into
    northern MS remained a focus for thunderstorms, out ahead of a
    potent vorticity max located over AR and within the
    diffluent/divergent right-entrance region of an associated upper
    level jet max which extended across the MS Valley into the Midwest.

    Cloud tops on infrared satellite imagery have shown trends toward
    warming overall over the past 2-3 hours, but bursts of colder
    cloud tops remained, such as what was occurring over western MS at
    08Z. A reservoir of 500-1500 J/kg MLCAPE remained from central MS
    into central/southern LA with up to ~1000 J/kg MUCAPE northward
    into western TN. Short term forecasts from the RAP show that as
    the vorticity max over AR continues to translate toward the ENE,
    925-850 mb winds will veer over southern MS/AL which will have the
    effect of weakening the existing axis of confluence across the
    region through 12Z. However, remnant low level
    convergence/confluence coincident with strong upper level ascent
    will continue a threat for heavy rain and periods of training. The
    environment will still be capable of localized rainfall rates over
    2 in/hr but 1 to 2 inches in an hour will be more common.
    Therefore, through 14Z, a localized flash flood threat will remain
    from the LA/MS border into central MS and central to northern AL
    where 2 to 3+ inches of rain could fall in a 2 to 3 hour window,
    with the greatest concern for flash flooding across urban or
    otherwise sensitive/low-lying areas.

    Areas affected...west-central into central Alabama

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 251509Z - 251909Z

    Summary: The best chance of isolated flash flood potential exists
    across west-central into central Alabama over the next couple
    hours.

    Discussion...A complicated surface/low-level pattern exists across
    the discussion area currently. A remnant outflow boundary from
    earlier convection now over Georgia resides along an axis from
    just south of Tuscaloosa eastward to the AL/GA border just north
    of Auburn. This boundary was oriented perpendicular to strong
    southerly 850mb flow (around 40-45 knots), providing ascent for
    sustained, deep convective updrafts. Subtle mid-level waves
    across Louisiana/Mississippi were also providing ascent for
    updrafts. Convection has tended to focus along and just north of
    the aforementioned outflow, and with 1.4 inch PW values, moderate
    surface-based buoyancy south of the outflow, and deep layer flow
    generally parallel to the initiating outflow boundary, some
    opportunity exists for training of cells this morning from near
    Tuscaloosa into the southern sections of Birmingham Metro this
    morning. Some of this rainfall was occurring in areas that have
    already experienced 2-3 inches of rainfall over the past 6 hours,
    and with wet ground conditions and urban interfaces across the
    discussion area, potential exists for excessive runoff issues in
    the short term.

    Fast southerly low-level flow should allow for at least modest
    northward retreat of the outflow boundary along with a northward
    shift in the primary axis of training convection, though the
    northward retreat may not be as rapid as recent mesoanalyses
    indicate. Meanwhile, additional upstream convection over central
    Mississippi should gradually mature while moving toward the Tuscaloosa-to-Birmingham corridor this morning. This corridor
    could see a locally enhanced threat of isolated flash flooding
    over the next 2-4 hours or so (through 19Z/1p central).

    1117 PM EST Tue Nov 25 2025

    Areas affected...South Texas

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 260415Z - 260920Z

    Summary...A localized flash flood risk will exist across portions
    of southern TX through at least 09Z. Slow moving and/or
    backbuilding of thunderstorms could result in isolated totals in
    excess of 3-5 inches, though some uncertainty in placement and
    timing remain.

    Discussion...04Z radar and infrared satellite imagery showed a
    lone thunderstorm over southern Webb County, about 15 miles east
    of the Rio Grande with a slow northward drift. Radar and satellite
    imagery also showed recent attempts at development over Live Oak
    County and portions of northern Mexico though low level CIN may be
    hindering further development. MRMS-derived hourly rainfall was
    over 2 inches with the cell although the likely presence of large
    hail may be over-inflating those values and no ground truth was
    available to confirm actual rain rates. The cell was located near
    a quasi-stationary front which has drifted north and west over the
    past couple of hours due to a weak low level easterly surge off of
    the warm Gulf waters with surface dewpoints in the lower 70s from
    CRP to BKS and southward to the Rio Grande. Low level convergence
    and lift augmented by a subtle shortwave impulse tracking east
    from north-central Mexico as seen in 6.2 micron imagery seem to be
    triggers for the storm(s).

    00Z soundings from CRP and BRO showed 1.3 to 1.6 inch PW values
    along with 1500-2000 J/kg MLCAPE, with this airmass likely in
    place near the cell over Webb County. The environment was
    supportive of a mixture of storm modes with sufficient shear for
    organized cells and straight-line hodographs which could support
    splitting storms. Bunkers right motion was toward the SSE near 20
    kt, Bunkers left from the SSW near 15 kt and deeper layer mean
    winds from the west between 5 and 20 kt.

    While recent hires model guidance shows a decent signal for
    localized heavy rain in the vicinity of southern TX, there is poor
    agreement in placement and timing. Current thinking is for the
    existing cell over Webb County to maintain for at least another
    1-2 hours with a continued drift toward the north or west with
    localized heavy rain. The future beyond that time is unclear as
    better low level confluence shifts westward into Mexico but
    additional convective development appears possible near the
    frontal boundary and south TX coast later in the night. Additional
    potential for high rates in excess of 2 in/hr and spotty totals in
    excess of 3 to 5 inches will remain possible.

    Areas affected...South TX

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 260905Z - 261400Z

    Summary...A fairly localized flash flood threat will continue over
    portions of southern TX through sunrise. Slow moving thunderstorms
    will be capable of hourly rainfall in excess of 2 to 3 inches in
    an hour with potential for additional totals of 3 to 5+ inches.

    Discussion...Area radar imagery over southern TX at 0840Z showed a
    slow moving thunderstorm in the vicinity of Hebronville along with
    the recent (since 07Z) expansion of a broken line of thunderstorms
    extending west from Rockport. The line of storms to north of
    Hebronville appears to be elevated just above the surface given
    increasing northerly winds at the surface and lowering dewpoints
    just north of these storms, associated with a cold front which
    extended through the western Gulf into the lower Rio Grande
    Valley. While ground truth of observed rainfall at the surface has
    been limited, the ASOS from KHBV showed 0.88 inches of rain in 8
    minutes ending 0735Z. This is an example of what the environment
    over south TX can produce, represented by MLCAPE of 1000-2000 J/kg
    and precipitable water values near 1.5 inches (per 08Z SPC
    mesoanalysis data).

    The slow moving cold front will begin to move toward the south at
    a more rapid pace by 12Z and beyond, due to a strong ridge of high
    pressure to the north building in and a secondary cold front
    currently moving steadily through central TX. Until then however,
    the potential for slow moving thunderstorms will continue given a
    mixture of cell types and cell motions, some of which could be
    less than 10 kt toward the east. There is also some potential for
    cells to develop/stall near the coast as a corridor of relatively
    stronger low level flow near the front (15-20 kt 925-850 mb layer)
    acts to focus cells along a coastal convergence axis forced by the
    warmer Gulf waters relative to inland locations.

    While the potential for flash flooding looks to be isolated, the
    potential for high rain rates and localized totals in excess of
    3-5 inches will maintain concerns for rapid inundation of water
    until ~14Z, at which point, the cold front is forecast to be
    moving through Brownsville.

    Areas affected...south Texas

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 261410Z - 261710Z

    Summary...Isolated flash flood potential will continue for another
    2-3 hours across south Texas.

    Discussion...Flash flood potential continues. Recent
    satellite/objective analyses depict a weak mid-level shortwave
    trough moving over south Texas, continuing to initiate and
    maintain deep moist convection along a synoptic frontal zone over
    the area (extending from Rio Grande City east to Padre Island and
    Gulf of American waters). 1.5+ inch PW values and 2000 J/kg
    SBCAPE continues to support efficient rainfall processes with
    storms. Meanwhile, kinematics (with weak flow below 500mb)
    continue to support slow cell movement and spots of 2-3 inch/hr
    rain rates. While there's still an appreciable chance for these
    rates to materialize along more populated/urbanized areas near the
    Rio Grande (i.e., Brownsville, Harlingen, etc.) and prompt flash
    flooding, overall convective trends suggest that eventual
    low-level stabilization (due to overturning and cooler air
    filtering into the region from the north) should result in flash
    flood potential decreasing especially after 16-17Z.

    Areas affected...Southeast Texas

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 292151Z - 300351Z

    Summary...Thunderstorms near Houston TX are expected to grow
    upscale and potentially backbuild/train with time. Hourly amounts
    to 2.5" with local totals to 5" could lead to widely scattered
    instances of flash flooding.

    Discussion...Satellite and radar imagery indicate the formation of
    showers and thunderstorms near and east of a baroclinic zone
    oriented northwest-southeast across Southeast TX within a region
    of 850 hPa confluence near I-10. ML/MU CAPE to the west and
    southwest is 1000-2000 J/kg. Effective bulk shear is near 40 kts,
    which has led to right movers near IAH itself. The atmosphere is
    saturated, considering precipitable water values (1.25-1.5" per
    GPS data) within a region of 5630 meter 1000-500 hPa thickness
    values. Hourly rain amounts of are up to 0.5-1" in the past hour
    near Stagecoach TX, as of the time of this discussion's writing.

    The 18z HREF moreso than the 12z REFS indicates the continued
    building of thunderstorms in this area, with some further increase
    in convective coverage, which may show backbuilding, training
    character with time. Instability could erode/retreat westward
    with time depending upon the degree of convective coverage,
    essentially stalling the front west of Houston. Cell mergers are
    also possible as less organized convection moves more northeast
    while more organized convection moves more to the east. Given the
    parameters, hourly amounts to 2.5" with local amounts to 5" are
    possible over the next several hours, with the magnitude most in
    line with the 12z ARW and 20z HRRR guidance. There is a chance
    late in the MPD period of convection trying to form across
    northeast TX presently near and ahead of an advancing cold front
    approaching the southeast TX convective area, which could lead to
    more cell mergers at or beyond 04z. Since the 12z ARW and 18z
    HREF are closer to the convective evolution thus far, used their
    guidance for the defined MPD area. Widely scattered instances of
    flash flooding are considered possible, particularly in the
    Houston metropolitan area.

    Areas affected...Central and Upper Texas Coastal Plain...

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 300400Z - 301000Z

    SUMMARY...Slow moving, pre-frontal cells with rates of 2"/hr
    eventually merge with south-southeastward pressing cold front
    convection resulting in localized 2-4" totals in 1-3 hours.=20
    Isolated flash flooding remains possible, especially near urban
    centers.

    DISCUSSION...GOES-E 3.9um SWIR highlights a few low level
    boundaries that will remain the focus of scattered thunderstorm
    activity through the overnight period. The main being the surging
    cold front being reinforced by favorable upper-level orientations
    to support steepening of theta-E gradient while increasing
    northerly surface wind flow to over 20-25kts nearly counter to the
    weaker but solid onshore flow. Currently active convection along
    the leading edge of the front is slow moving from Burleson to Polk
    county as the winds are not fully intersecting with the line, but
    will likely be propagating southward in the next hour or so. The
    other boundary is the return moisture plume off the western Gulf
    (which arches similar to the Lower TX Gulf coast before angling
    east- northeast just south of the aforementioned convection). Tds
    in the upper 60s to near 70 can be traced best in CIRA LPW sfc-850
    and 850-700mb layers covering much of the MPD area of concern
    across the Central and Upper Texas Coastal Plain.

    Onshore flow is also increasing to 15-20kts resulting in
    frictional convergence near coast. Conditionally unstable airmass
    with MLCAPEs of 1000-1250 J/kg remain weakly capped but there are
    some signs in satellite imagery of some weak cu field near
    Victoria, TX as well as an isolated weakening supercells
    northeast of Galveston Bay. The merging of the boundaries is also
    allowing a westward expansion of new development upstream into
    Bastrop/Caldwell county vicinity.=20

    Total deep moisture of 1.5" as noted in the CIRA LPW is loaded
    below 700mb, but there is solid deep saturation. These isolated
    cells driven by frictional convergence will be slow moving and
    eventually capable of 1-2"/hr rates. Spotty 2-3" totals will
    occur in 1-2hrs, but as they mature and expand the slower moving
    cells along the cold front will have started increased forward
    speed and with very high low level moisture flux convergence will
    have the capability of 1-1.25"/15min rainfall totals as they
    intersect/merge with the cells across the Plain.

    00z HREF probabilities continue to suggest 3"/3hr totals in the
    20-30% range (3"/6hr over 50%) which is fairly impressive given
    the strength of the updraft due to instability is fairly limited.=20
    While the overall coverage will continue to be limited, spots of
    3-4" totals are probable through 09z. This places sufficient
    overlap of FFG exceedance (as 1hr FFG is 2.5-3" and 3hr is 3-4")
    for possible localized incident or two of flash/rapid inundation
    flooding. This only further increases with intersection with
    urban centers, such as Victoria, Houston and Beaumont.=20=20

    734 PM EST Mon Dec 01 2025

    Areas affected...portions of the central Gulf Coast

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 020034Z - 020634Z

    Summary...A combination of cell training and backbuilding should
    continue to lead to hourly rain amounts to 1.75" with local totals
    to 4", which could cause flash flooding in urban areas.

    Discussion...Instability across portions of the central Gulf Coast
    continues to rise ahead of a negatively-tilted shortwave across
    OK. Precipitable water values are ~1.6" per GPS data and MU CAPE
    values of 500+ J/kg lie across the southeast tip of LA and
    continue shifting north towards the MS/AL barrier islands. Radar
    estimates from LIX/Hammond LA indicate that hourly amounts peaked
    near 1.75" not far from the eastern suburbs of New Orleans
    recently, with local totals above 2.5" so far. Occasional hourly
    rain amounts to 1.5" have been seen in backbuilding convection in
    southernmost AL. Effective bulk shear of 25-45 kts lurks across
    the area which is helping to form a band within an area of 850 hPa
    confluence.

    The band is showing some signs of shifting northward across
    southern AL and slightly eastward in southeast LA. Additional
    activity south of the LA/MS coasts within a convergence zone which
    extends from northwest Cuba towards the central Gulf Coast could
    advect northward towards portions of this area in the next several
    hours and cause additional issues. The guidance has not been
    ideal in this region thus far -- too far north and too light --
    though the 18z hi-res NAM appears to have the best idea, so used
    it as a starting point for the MPD bounds, making some adjustments
    based on radar reflectivity trends. The region has been dry, so
    flash flood guidance values are high. Hourly amounts to 1.75" and
    local totals to 4" appear possible where cells train and/or
    backbuild, which would be most problematic in urban areas.

    Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

    Valid 080041Z - 080300Z

    Summary...A combination of locally intense rainfall and cell
    training should continue this evening which could cause flash
    flooding in urban areas.

    Discussion...Thunderstorms with isolated maximum rainfall rates
    approaching 1.5 inches per hour have been moving on-shore and
    tracking northeastward from near Tampa to Cape Canaveral early
    this evening. These storms appear to be associated with a
    mid-level vorticity maximum approaching from the eastern Gulf of
    America along the axis of a 2+ inch precipitable water plume and
    axis of boundary layer moisture flux convergence. Radar estimates
    from TBW/Tampa Bay indicate that hourly amounts have peaked near
    1.75 inches in parts of Pinellas and Pasco counties and that the
    maximum rainfall totals were approaching 3.25 inches in the same
    area. These amounts were embedded within a broader 1.5 to 2,5
    inch stripe of rainfall extending towards the central portion of
    the peninsula.

    With additional showers and thunderstorms located off-shore...the
    potential for flooding due to multiple rounds of heavy rainfall
    exists. The 18Z HREF/RRFS showed the probability of 1 inch per
    hour rates diminishing to less than 5 percent along the west-coast
    by 08/03Z. Their placement has been a bit too far north with the
    intense rates. Even so...the HREF captured the evolution in the
    broadest sense and was used it as a starting point for the MPD.=20

    Maximum Hourly amounts 1" to 1.75" and local totals to 3.5" appear
    possible where cells train and/or back-build, which would be most
    problematic in urban areas and regions of poor drainage as well as
    along small streams.
