NWS Flash Flood Watch (Madison County)

HIDE
Flash Flood Watch issued May 27 at 4:44AM EDT until May 29 at 8:00AM EDT by NWS Greenville-Spartanburg

...ABUNDANT TROPICAL MOISTURE WILL RAISE THE RISK OF FLASH FLOODING AND MOUNTAIN LANDSLIDES STARTING TONIGHT... .Deep tropical moisture associated with a fetch of air off the Gulf of Mexico and the Atlantic Ocean will set up over the western Carolinas and northeast Georgia tonight. This moisture will get further reinforced by the remnants of Alberto as it moves northward across the Deep South early in the week. The resulting heavy rain showers and embedded thunderstorms across the region will fall on ground already saturated by heavy rain over the past 7 to 10 days. This will greatly heighten the risk of flash flooding, main stem river flooding, and landslides. ...FLASH FLOOD WATCH IN EFFECT FROM THIS EVENING THROUGH TUESDAY MORNING... The National Weather Service in Greenville-Spartanburg has issued a * Flash Flood Watch for portions of northeast Georgia, North Carolina, and upstate South Carolina, including the following areas, in northeast Georgia, Elbert, Franklin, Habersham, Hart, Rabun, and Stephens. In North Carolina, Avery, Buncombe, Burke Mountains, Cabarrus, Caldwell Mountains, Cleveland, Eastern McDowell, Eastern Polk, Gaston, Graham, Greater Burke, Greater Caldwell, Greater Rutherford, Haywood, Henderson, Lincoln, Macon, Madison, McDowell Mountains, Mecklenburg, Mitchell, Northern Jackson, Polk Mountains, Rutherford Mountains, Southern Jackson, Swain, Transylvania, Union, and Yancey. In upstate South Carolina, Abbeville, Anderson, Cherokee, Chester, Greater Greenville, Greater Oconee, Greater Pickens, Greenville Mountains, Greenwood, Laurens, Oconee Mountains, Pickens Mountains, Spartanburg, Union, and York. * from this evening through Tuesday morning * Abundant tropical moisture will arrive over the western Carolinas and northeast Georgia tonight and persist through the early part of the week. Rainfall totals around the region this week will likely reach or exceed 3 to 6 inches, with some locations along the eastern and southern slopes of the southern Appalachians seeing 6 to 8 inches. Locally heavier rainfall will be possible in locations that see repeated rounds of thunderstorms - where rainfall rates could reach 1 to 2 inches per hour in the heaviest downpours. This heavy rain will fall on ground already saturday by rainfall over the past 7 to 10 days. * Flash flooding of streams and creeks could develop very quickly under these circumstances. Landslides will be quite possible - especially in mountainous terrain known to be prone to landslides, and even along some steep slopes where landslides have not occurred for many years. Main stem river flooding will be quite likely as well, especially along rivers in the southern and central North Carolina mountains such as the French Broad River, the Tuckasegee River, and the Little Tennessee River.

Counties Affected:
Avery; Buncombe; Burke Mountains; Cabarrus; Caldwell Mountains; Cleveland; Eastern McDowell; Eastern Polk; Gaston; Graham; Greater Burke; Greater Caldwell; Greater Rutherford; Haywood; Henderson; Lincoln; Macon; Madison; McDowell Mountains; Mecklenburg; Mitchell; Northern Jackson; Polk Mountains; Rutherford Mountains; Southern Jackson; Swain; Transylvania; Union; Yancey

Forecast Last Updated at Sunday, May 27, 2018 at 7:00AM

PM Thunder

We are in a muggy SE flow. Daytime heating produces another round of afternoon showers and storms today. A stray early morning shower is possible. Weather eyes will be focused on Subtropical Storm Alberto in the Eastern Gulf. It's expected path is slightly east of where we thought yesterday (landfall tomorrow around Destin, FL); however that 50 mile adjustment results in no changes to our forecast. We'll feel the brunt of rain from Alberto's remnant Tuesday as it moves through Middle Tennessee. Daily doses of showers and storms remain for the workweek, but there's good news for next weekend.

Here are the Winners of the 2019 Blue Ridge Parkway Photo Contest. We received 720 photos and over 16,000 votes. The cover winner was Johnny Davidson.. A rime ice scene from the top of Craggy Pinnacle. Congratulations to all the monthly winners. We will soon choose another 40 or so photos to be included in cameo roles. Thanks to everyone who participated in the contest.

Forecast Discussion

After a big rain Saturday, we'll have less rain overall today. However, we do not escape "scot free". Daytime heating in a humid southeasterly flow will result in afternoon storms. The western edge of our region could see a stray morning shower as well.

Today, weather eyes turn to Subtropical Storm Alberto. It's projected path has been adjusted about 50 miles east and is expected to make landfall near Destin, FL, Monday afternoon. From there, it moves slowly through Alabama and into Middle Tennessee, then finds an escape route north into the Great Lakes.

Those small path adjustments result in no significant change to our forecast... Memorial Day still has a good dose of mostly afternoon and overnight showers and storms. We'll feel the brunt of Alberto's impact on Tuesday. Then we'll remain in "tropical soup" Wednesday and Thursday with scattered showers and storms, focused on but not limited to the afternoon and early evening hours.

A back door front arrives late Friday or early Saturday with much-wanted relief. Afternoon thundershowers remain possible Friday; however, drier air arrives next weekend giving us a pleasant reward.
