Minor changes were made to the Limited area over Texas to remove areas where the rainfall and the threat of new flood impacts has ended. QPF guidance suggests that additional heavy rainfall may be possible over portions of East Texas later today, however this heavy rainfall should be fairly localized and antecedent conditions are not favorable for widespread hydrologic responses. With this in mind, the Limited area was not expanded to the south or east. //Fontenot Previous Discussion as follows ...Flash, urban, and isolated river flooding potential returns Sunday for portions of the Southern Plains into the Lower Mississippi Valley... .Southern Plains into the Lower Mississippi Valley... The potential for flash and urban flooding, along with isolated new or renewed river flooding, returns today through Tuesday. While recent rainfall has increased soil moisture, levels remain near 50% (0-10cm RSM, NASA SPoRT), suggesting the ground still retains some capacity for infiltration. However, the flood threat persists due to the region`s specific soil characteristicsspecifically large areas of shallow soils or compact claywhich will promote rapid runoff regardless of the average saturation levels. HEFS/PQPF guidance and the HRRR-driven National Water Model Short-Range Rapid Onset Flooding forecast support this assessment, indicating that isolated river, flash, and urban flooding remain possible. //DPL Additional National Water Center products are available at www.weather.gov/owp/operations $$
