THE LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM IS FORECAST TO CONTINUE MOVING NORTHEAST
ACROSS THE GREAT LAKES TODAY. AS THE LOW PROGRESSES FASTER THAN IT
HAS IN RECENT DAYS...THE RISK OF HEAVY RAINFALL NEAR THE LOW AND
ALONG THE WARM FRONT WILL LESSEN SINCE STORM MOTIONS WILL BE
FASTER. HOWEVER...RAINFALL OF 1 TO 2 INCHES WILL BE POSSIBLE FOR
PORTIONS OF THE NORTHEAST TODAY...WITH LOCALLY HIGHER AMOUNTS
POSSIBLE. ELSEWHERE...SOUTHWEST OF THE LOW NEAR THE COLD FRONT AND
THE QUASI-STATIONARY FRONT ACROSS TEXAS...SCATTERED RAINFALL
TOTALS OF UP TO 3 INCHES ARE POSSIBLE FOR SOME AREAS...ESPECIALLY
ACROSS TEXAS AND THE LOWER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY WHERE ABUNDANT
TROPICAL MOISTURE REMAINS. AS SOME AREAS THERE HAVE RECEIVED
COPIOUS AMOUNTS OF RAINFALL OVER THE PAST SEVERAL DAYS...EVEN WITH
THE LIGHTER RAINFALL AMOUNTS...FLASH FLOODING CONTINUES TO BE A
CONCERN.
THE NEXT STORM SUMMARY WILL BE ISSUED BY THE WEATHER PREDICTION
CENTER AT 1000 AM CDT. PLEASE REFER TO YOUR LOCAL NATIONAL WEATHER
SERVICE OFFICE FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON THIS EVENT.
