Mean Hermine Rain?
5:29 am in Extreme Weather, The Ozarks by Ted Keller
Rainfall Projection Through Friday AM
The latest projections continue to show the remnant low of once tropical storm Hermine tracking over a portion of the Ozarks. This will mean another soggy day on Thursday with excessive rain totals and possible flash flooding.
A flash flood watch has been hoisted by the National Weather Service office for tonight lasting through Friday.
A widespread area of 3-4″+ of rain is forecast to develop over the central portions of the Ozarks. With these old tropical systems, it often happens that a few isolated areas may receive more than the overall forecast for rain. Where these heavier rainfall spikes might occur is still uncertain at this point.
Tropical weather systems spreading heavy rain inland are fairly common. I pointed out a storm taking a similar path in my blog here. A discussion of additional September rains can also be found here.
