    Areas affected...portions of central TX

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

    Valid 200540Z - 201010Z

    Summary...Isolated to widely scattered instances of flash flooding
    will be possible over portions of central TX including the Hill
    Country through 10Z. Localized totals of 2 to 4+ inches may occur
    over a relatively short period of time.

    Discussion...Regional radar imagery through 0530Z showed widely
    scattered coverage of thunderstorms over central TX with an
    increasingly concerning cluster near/south of JCT with only small
    net-movement over the past hour. The environment over central TX
    contained anomalous precipitable water values of 1.3 to 1.7 inches
    and 500-1500 J/kg MLCAPE (SPC mesoanalysis and area soundings from
    00Z) with moisture contributions from the tropical eastern Pacific
    in the mid/upper levels and Gulf of America in the lower levels.
    0-6 km mean layer winds were a progressive 20-30 kt toward the
    northeast but sufficient speed shear was present for organized
    cells and slower storm motions right of the mean wind.

    While larger scale forcing ahead of a strong mid to upper level
    trough/closed low over the CA/AZ border was still well west of TX,
    the low level response out ahead of this feature was SSE 925-850
    mb winds of 20-30 kt with increasing low level moisture values
    into central TX since Wednesday evening as seen on OSPO LPW
    imagery in the surface-850 mb layer. Transient axes of low level
    convergence and upslope flow into the Edwards Plateau are expected
    to continue to support small clusters of thunderstorms with mean
    movement off toward the northeast. However, there will likely be
    areas of upstream convective redevelopment which will allow for
    training and repeating cells at times. Peak hourly rainfall of 1
    to 2 inches (locally higher) is expected within SW to NE axes of
    training with 3-hr totals of 2-4 inches, although idealized
    training over a particular location has the potential for rainfall
    totals over 4 inches in 3 hours. Current thinking is that the
    coverage of flash flooding through 10Z will remain low enough to
    keep the "flash flooding possible" wording on this message given
    dry antecedent conditions, but concerns for rapid rises of water
    will exist across portions of the sensitive Hill Country despite
    the dry antecedent grounds.

    Areas affected...northeastern TX, southeastern OK into
    south-central AR

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

    Valid 200800Z - 201400Z

    SUMMARY...Localized flash flooding will be possible across
    portions of northeastern TX, southeastern OK into south-central AR
    through the early morning hours. 2 to 4 inches of rain in 2-3
    hours is expected within idealized training, but the threat is
    expected to primarily exist across urban areas or other locations
    with poor drainage.

    DISCUSSION...Scattered thunderstorms were observed on 0730Z
    radar/infrared satellite imagery over portions of northern TX into
    southern OK. These storms were located beneath broad southwesterly
    flow aloft, with low level warm advection helping aid ascent over
    the region. While forcing for ascent was not strongly defined over
    any particular region of TX/OK/AR, leading to a somewhat
    disorganized pattern on radar imagery, trends have shown an
    increasing coverage in the number of cells over the past few
    hours, with movement off toward the northeast. MLCAPE was between
    500-1500 J/kg with varying degrees of CIN, though many of the
    ongoing cells were likely a bit elevated above the surface.
    Moisture values were anomalously high for mid-November with
    GPS-derived PW values between 1.5 to just over 1.7 inches as of
    06Z in and around the Dallas-Fort Worth region.

    Continued low level warm advection with transient axes of low
    level convergence are likely to maintain scattered thunderstorms
    with areas of short term training capable of producing 1 to 2
    inches of rain in an hour, and 3-hr totals of 2 to 4 inches. Mean
    movement of small thunderstorm clusters should continue off toward
    the northeast but upstream development and training will
    potentially result in flash flooding should these higher rainfall
    totals overlap with an urban or otherwise poorly draining
    location.

    The 06Z and 07Z WoFS seems to have locked onto a signal for higher
    rainfall potential with the 07Z cycle indicating a 40-50 percent
    chance of exceeding 3 inches through the 11-12Z time frame within
    an axis covering northeastern Dallas County into southern Collin
    County. However, given a lack of rainfall over at least the past
    2-3 weeks, flash flood guidance is relatively high which should
    limit the coverage of flash flooding over the next 3-6 hours.

    Areas affected...portions of central TX

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

    Valid 201015Z - 201600Z

    Summary...Another round of heavy rain with flash flood potential
    appears to be organizing across western portions of the Edwards
    Plateau. Areas of training are likely to produce hourly rainfall
    of 1 to 2 inches and 3-hr totals of 2-4 inches (locally higher)
    across portions of central TX. A few instances of flash flooding
    will be likely through 16Z.

    Discussion...Between 09-10Z, thunderstorm coverage has been
    increasing across western portions of the Edwards Plateau, from
    near SJT, south-southwest toward the Rio Grande. This recent
    increase could be related to increasing ascent ahead of an
    approaching mid-level trough over AZ and northwestern Mexico,
    which was beginning to acquire a negative tilt, but was still
    located a bit west of the region. In addition, 925-850 mb winds
    remained in the 20-30 kt range from the S to SSE, continuing to
    transport anomalous low level moisture northward from the western
    Gulf into central TX where 500-1500 J/kg MLCAPE was estimated by
    the 09Z SPC mesoanalysis page. Orographic lift across the Edwards
    Plateau and a recent increase of low level convergence are also
    contributing factors to the recent expansion of thunderstorms.

    Recent RAP guidance indicates an axis or axes of low level
    convergence aligning from Val Verde County toward the vicinity of
    San Angelo through 16Z, matching the orientation of the mean
    steering flow from the SSW. This signal, when combined with weak
    right-entrance region divergence tied to an upper level jet east
    of the upper level trough, is expected to result in areas of
    training with 1 to 2 inches of rain per hour, and 2 to 4 inches of
    rain in 3 hours or less time (locally higher possible). In
    addition, recent WoFS guidance has been increasing probabilities
    for 2+ inches of rain from near Val Verde County, north to
    northeastward to just southeast of San Angelo over the next few
    hours, with the 09Z cycle displaying a 40-70 percent probability
    of exceeding 2 inches through 15Z across this corridor. The
    anomalously moist environment will support locally high rainfall
    intensities which should overcome dry antecedent conditions,
    supporting at least a localized flash flood concern over the next
    3-6 hours, with locally considerable impacts possible across any urban/impervious surfaces.

    Areas affected...North TX into southwest OK

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

    Valid 201650Z - 202230Z

    Summary...Additional rainfall of 1.5-3.0" (and locally higher) is
    likely to result in scattered instances of flash flooding (and may
    be locally significant).

    Discussion...Low-level convergence upstream (southwest) of the DFW
    metro has gradually consolidated a SSE to NNW training segment of
    convection across portions of North TX with hourly totals now
    approaching 2"/hr (per MRMS estimates). This line of showers and
    thunderstorms is occurring along a ThetaE gradient well to the
    east of the primary front (near the Rolling Plains and Cap Rock
    south of the TX Panhandle) with precipitable water values of
    1.5-1.7" (near record values, and well above the FWD 90th
    percentile of ~1.2"), ML CAPE of 500-750 J/kg, and substantial
    deep layer shear of 45-55 kts. As southerly low-level moisture
    transport has recently ramped up, expect a period of several
    several more hours of off and on heavy rainfall (with an even more
    impressive train of showers is ongoing farther southwest over the
    TX Hill Country, likely to move into the region while still
    possibly maintaining 2-3"/hr rainfall rates).

    The bulk of the hi-res guidance suggests an addition 1.5-3.0" of
    rainfall over the next 3-6 hours (per 12z HREF probability matched
    mean QPF) with the potential for localized 3" exceedance (per
    40-km HREF >3" probs of 20-40%). With a narrow swath of 2-4" of
    rainfall already having fallen over the past 6-12 hours (per NSSL
    estimates), Flash Flood Guidance (FFG) are as low as 1.5-2.5" (and
    even lower to the northwest of the metro area where the maximum
    rainfall occured). Given these wet antecedent conditions and the
    potential for additional significant heavy rainfall, scattered
    instances of flash flooding are likely (and may locally be
    significant, particularly across more sensitive urbanized terrain
    and where streamflows are already elevated).

    Areas affected...South-Central TX into the Hill Country

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

    Valid 201800Z - 210000Z

    Summary...Additional rainfall of 1.5-3.0" (and locally higher)
    over portions of already saturated areas is likely to continue
    scattered to numerous instances of flash flooding (with
    expectations for locally significant flash flooding developing).

    Discussion...Sustained training convection has resulted in a
    narrow swath of heavy rainfall (2-5" over the past 3-6 hours, per
    MRMS estimates) through the morning hours. While numerous (but
    very geographically focused) flash floods are ongoing in portions
    of the TX Hill Country, concerns are growing for continued
    worsening of impacts as persistent low-level moisture transport
    and convergence have coincided with destabilization just upstream
    of the hardest hit areas (to the southwest into portions of
    South-Central TX near Del Rio). The mesoscale environment is
    otherwise characterized by precipitable water values of 1.4-1.7"
    (near daily records, as DRT sounding climatology indicates a 90th
    percentile of ~1.2"), most-unstable CAPE of 1000-2500 J/kg, and
    substantial deep layer shear of 55-65 kts. While a dry line is
    slowly approaching the region from the west, this is likely only
    increasing the low-level forcing over the next several hours with
    the expectation that the feature will stall west of Del Rio.

    Going forward, there is strong agreement among the hi-res CAMs for
    an additional 1.5-3.0" of rainfall (with at least one run of the
    HRRR indicating localized totals of up to 5", as well as HREF 3"
    exceedance probabilities of 15-25%). Given the wet antecedent
    conditions (and the already relatively sensitive terrain of
    portions of the Hill Country), continued scattered to numerous
    instances of flash flooding are likely (including some locally
    significant instances of flash flooding, as FFGs of 1.5" are lower
    are indicated across already hard hit areas).

    Areas affected...coastal southern CA

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

    Valid 210611Z - 211210Z

    Summary...Highly localized flash flooding will be possible from
    slow moving showers/thunderstorms capable of producing hourly
    rainfall up to ~1 inch. This threat will exist along portions of
    southern CA near the coast through at least 12Z.

    Discussion...GOES West water vapor imagery at 06Z showed
    a mid-level closed low centered over the central CA coast, slowly
    moving south. Several smaller scale vorticity maxima were observed
    within the cyclonic flow, with one of interest located over/near
    Santa Cruz Island. Cooling cloud tops were noted east of the
    vorticity center, northwest of a surface low within a mesoscale
    deformation zone. The 1009 mb low was located about 30 miles west
    of Santa Catalina at 06Z with an occluded/cold front extending
    southward. A weak plume of low level moisture transport was
    located ahead of the front, parallel to the southern CA coastline
    where a few showers have recently picked up in intensity with
    localized training along the Orange County coast.

    Weak instability up to a couple hundred J/kg was located along the
    southern CA coast from Santa Barbara to San Diego counties as
    noted in recent ACARS/model soundings. As the mid-level low
    continues to translate down the CA coast, the plume of low level
    moisture ahead of the front will push inland along with the
    initial round of stronger showers. Later in the night, some
    steepening of mid-level lapse rates should increase instability up
    to about 500 J/kg along the immediate coast and closer to 1000
    J/kg offshore. The surface low is forecast to edge closer to the
    Los Angeles/Orange County coasts through 12Z. With this movement,
    another round of slow moving showers and thunderstorms is expected
    to track toward the coast from the offshore waters, with potential
    for highly localized hourly (or sub-hourly) rainfall between 0.5
    and about 1 inch, due to slow movement.

    These spotty higher rainfall rates could result in flash flooding
    of urban areas or other sensitive terrain.

    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.

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

    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.
