If they were showing up in your CWA, you should sit up and pay attention to the threat. Rarely do these significant rainfall events occur without some heads up from guidance these days. Right. Models aren't going to be able to pick out exact locations for something like this. It'll be interesting to see how close we get to maximizing potential. BOX just took their forecast up to 4-6" across much of central and eastern CT. The images out of parts of RI are pretty crazy right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KRICRANS8 on Wundermap. I'm at 3.65 right now. Flash flood warning popped up on my phone about 10 minutes ago. The 3.65 is since 1:00. I don't know where the 5" in Cranston is! Looking at all the weather stations on Wundermap I don't see anything above 4" all across Cranston. Hope it's not going to do this into sunrise tomorrow. We'll be close to 10" and have major flooding! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OceanStWx Posted September 5, 2022 Share Posted September 5, 2022 This is like classic tropical rain though. Z is mostly moderate across RI right now, ZDR on the lower side (~1-2 db), and KDP around 1 deg/km. Now KDP around 1 or 2 can be either heavy continental rain or heavy tropical rain. The giveaway is ZDR. Large continental drops would be large ZDR (flatter than they are round), but tropical raindrops stay close to 1 or 2 db as they are smaller and more spherical. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a sharp cutoff to the heaviest totals in your area. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must have a horrific drainage system Especially that eastern part of town is relatively flat and kind of historic meandering river/stream drainage from the higher terrain north and west. Couple that with the sprawl of concrete from Providence and you have a recipe for flooding. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dan11295 Posted September 5, 2022 Share Posted September 5, 2022 Digital storm totals might be a tad overdone, PWS i am seeing have 4.5-4.7" where 5-5.5" are estimated currently. Of course it depends on PWS accuracy/siting etc. Regardless, current trends on radar are problematic for this corridor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its a nice hook signature but I thought the rotation was relatively weak. I'm leaning towards not a TDS signature as it's a nit displaced from the rotation but the low CC's are also like right on the edge of the storm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
