phlwx Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 Having 2.25" PWATS overhead on Wednesday AM per GFS. Wouldn't shock to see a good bit of flash flooding just north/west of the city. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunny and Warm Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 interesting that HPC uses a 00z Euro/GFS ensemble blend with support by the current 12z Euro, and that pushes the axis of heaviest precip further NE given the Euro faster evolution of the low and not closing off as far south as the GFS. Guess we'll see how this shakes out as more data comes into the grid from Canada and the Pacific. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJHurricane Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 I see multiple "heavy rain" potential mentions in tuesday/wed forecasts but don't see any ridiculous looking 6 hour totals when looking at GFS/NAM...does Euro show heavier amounts in a short amount of time? Working a gig up in Newark and people already asking me if Tuesday evening is going to be monsoon like up there and been to busy to closely follow the forecast evolution of this event the past couple days.

ChescoWx Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 0.59" from overnight with 0.39" yesterday (0.98") total so far - heaviest rains overnight must have missed a little east of here. However, it looks like more rain pushing this way up from the south. Certainly need the rain here in Chester County where we are still only 72% of normal to date with a current deficit of 8.97" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sunny and Warm Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 5.32" here in West Chester in last 24 hours. Wave upon wave of torrential downpours. House is leaking where it's never leaked before, even during Irene! Amazingly slow moving storms hitting the same spots it seems over and over. 35 miles to your north in Macungie, we've had 0.10" the last 24 hours.

Chief83 Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 With the persistent and in some areas heavy rain this AM are we heading into a very problematic midweek? Looks to me like the ground is becoming saturated in advance of the possible heavy rains of Tuesday and Wednesday. Could be a significant event.

RobbTC Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 Flash Flood Watch issued .HYDROLOGY... A RATHER MOIST AIRMASS WILL REMAIN OVER THE AREA DURING THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS AS A SOUTHERLY LOW-LEVEL FLOW CONTINUES. IN ADDITION, THE REMNANTS OF ISSAC WILL CONTINUE TO ARRIVE ESPECIALLY TUESDAY INTO WEDNESDAY. THE PW VALUES ARE FORECAST TO INCREASE, FROM SOUTHWEST TO NORTHEAST, TO NEAR 2.25 INCHES TONIGHT AND TUESDAY. THIS WILL RESULT IN LOCALLY VERY HEAVY RAIN ALONG WITH FLOODING OF ROADWAYS AND POOR DRAINAGE AREAS. IF THE HEAVY RAIN BECOMES FOCUSED ACROSS A WATERSHED, SOME OF OUR QUICKER RESPONDING WATERWAYS COULD HAVE SOME FLOODING. BASED ON THE RATHER HIGH PW VALUES AND THE FACT THAT THE CONVECTION WILL BE VERY EFFICIENT RAINFALL RATE PRODUCERS, A FLASH FLOOD WATCH WILL BE ISSUED. THIS WATCH WILL RUN THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT AND INCLUDE THE INTERSTATE 95 CORRIDOR ZONES FROM TRENTON TO WILMINGTON. THESE AREAS HAVE ALREADY HAD LOCALLY VERY HEAVY RAIN LAST NIGHT AND TODAY, THEREFORE THE FLASH FLOOD GUIDANCE IS MUCH LOWER. DEPENDING ON TRENDS AND ADDITIONAL GUIDANCE, THIS WATCH MAY NEED TO BE EXPANDED WITH TIME. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
