Excessive Rainfall Discussion
NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD
1054 AM EST Wed Dec 4 2024

Day 1
Valid 16Z Wed Dec 04 2024 - 12Z Thu Dec 05 2024

The probability of rainfall exceeding flash flood guidance is less
than 5 percent. Forecast thinking based on 12z mesoscale guidance remains
unchanged as strengthening warm/moist advection atop a weak
frontal wave results in 2-4 inch rainfall totals focused across
east Texas and central Louisiana through early Thursday. However,
dry antecedent conditions, and consequently high FFG thresholds
suggest the threat of flash flooding, while non-zero, is less than
5%.

Asherman/Cook

Day 3
Valid 12Z Fri Dec 06 2024 - 12Z Sat Dec 07 2024
