Flooding Rains forecasted for the SE US

#1 Postby Valkhorn » Tue Feb 03, 2004 5:11 pm

The QPF values are over 5 inches for my area in 3 days re the GFS.

GFS at 84 hours - 60hr total precip

ETA at 72 hours - 60hr total precip

The GFS is much more bullish, but I also feel the ETA could be on the conservative side. Our local mets are already saying we could recieve 3-5 inches of rain here in east central MS.

It's been pretty wet here lately with saturated soils and high water in the rivers...if we see a 4-6" rain event which looks like a possibility right now, we are in trouble.
