...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF EXCESSIVE RAINFALL ACROSS FAR
SOUTHERN GEORGIA INTO NORTH FLORIDA...

A corridor of moisture convergence in the warm sector of a
developing Southeast U.S. surface low, in the presence of 1.5"+
precipitable water values, will fuel the development of showers
and thunderstorms. Inflow at 850 hPa ranges between 30-60 kts and
MU CAPE should rise into the 250-500 J/kg range. If instability
verified on the high end of the range, organized convection in the
form of lines and mesocyclones would be possible. Given the above,
rainfall totals could reach 1.5" in an hour where cells repeat.
The guidance suggests that local amounts towards 3" are possible,
which would require a couple hours of training. Believe there is
enough there to maintain the Marginal Risk area at the present
time, but any heavy rain-related issues would be confined to urban
areas.
