PLUME POINTING INTO SOUTHERN AND CENTRAL NEW ENGLAND.  12Z RADIOSONDE AT
OKX SHOWED EQUILIBRIUM LEVEL TEMP OF +10 AND AT WALLOPS NEAR -35C...SO
COOLER CLOUD TOPS AVGING -42C TO -47C ALONG WITH DEEP MOISTURE OF
1.5" OR GREATER HELPING TO ENHANCE RAINFALL MORE THAN NORMALLY WOULD
BE THE CASE.  AS THIS BATCH OF MODERATE TO HVY RAINFALL AHEAD OF WEAK
SHORT WAVES MOVING ACROSS CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND IS THE FIRST
OF THE HVY RAINS OF THIS LONG EVENT...IT WILL BE THE OTHER RAIN AREAS
SOUTH OF THE SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND COAST THAT WILL HAVE TO BE CLOSELY
WATCHED FOR ADDITIONAL RAINFALL LATER THIS EVENING/TONIGHT THAT COULD
THEN HEIGHTEN THE FLOOD THREAT.  AND 1712Z NOAA AMSU PASS SHOWED 15KM
RESOLUTION INSTANTANEOUS AREAL AVG MAX RAIN RATES OF NEAR 1.0"/HR AT
38.4N/70W OR 230 MILES SOUTH OF NEW BEDFORD, MA.   THIS EVENT DOES
NOT YET FIT THE CRITERIA OF A PREDECESSOR RAINFALL EVENT (PRE)...BUT
CERTAINLY HAS THE POTENTIAL OF PRODUCING 4 INCHES IN A 24HR PERIOD AND
600 MILES FROM KYLE IN THE NEXT 24HRS.
