Excessive Rainfall Discussion
NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD

Day 1
Valid 16Z Thu May 07 2026 - 12Z Fri May 08 2026

...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF EXCESSIVE RAINFALL FROM SOUTHERNMOST
GEORGIA TO THE FLORIDA PANHANDLE...

...16Z Update...
The northern extent of the Marginal Risk was trimmed as an east-
west axis of thunderstorms enter the Florida Panhandle. Confluent
low-level flow directed into the upwind and minimally capped
segment of a slow moving cold front could support new thunderstorm
development and periodic training in the short term. However, with
time a shortwave trough approaching the Tennessee Valley will
redirect the strongest low-level forcing and moisture downstream of
the complex. As such, the HREF and REFS (while being too slow with
the convection) both suggest these storms should lessen in
coverage and intensity as they lose latitude in the next few hours.
This should relegate any isolated flash flooding concerns to areas
along and just north of the I-10 corridor in the Florida
Panhandle.

Day 2
Valid 12Z Fri May 08 2026 - 12Z Sat May 09 2026

...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF EXCESSIVE RAINFALL FROM SOUTH TEXAS
GULF COAST THROUGH THE LOWER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY...

The synoptic pattern on Friday will characterized by the return of
deep moisture as a previously stalled front, lingering along the
Gulf Coast begins to lift northward as a warm front. Near the
front, PWs are forecast to approach 1.8-2 inches (near the 99th=20
climatological percentile) from South Texas through the lower=20
Mississippi Valley, providing an ample reservoir for heavy=20

West Texas and downstream shortwave are expected to support=20

However, the exact placement of the heaviest rainfall within the=20
broad QPF footprint on Friday remains nebulous, with several
separate rounds of thunderstorms possible throughout the Day 2=20
period. When considered with high 1-3 hour FFGs across much of the=20

THE LOWER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY AND THE CENTRAL GULF COAST...
