Numerous thunderstorms have formed across the region due to surface convergence along the fringes of leftover thunderstorms from yesterday. These thunderstorms have developed despite relatively weak instability noted across the region via latest mesoanalysis.

The flash flood threat remains the biggest threat for today. Precipitable water values are now approaching 2.3″, which is one of the highest PWAT values I can remember seeing while forecasting for Wx Or Not. This means that all thunderstorms today will be capable of producing torrential rainfall.

Reminder that a Flash Flood Watch also remains in effect for the entire region until Tuesday morning. Have a safe Independence Day and stay weather aware.
