More Soaking Rain on the Way

It's looking like Tuesday night may be a re-run of this past weekend. Periods of heavy rain will likely begin  in the late afternoon to night time hours on Tuesday and progressively move out by mid-day Wednesday.

SPC Day 3 0830Z Prob Outlook
The Storm Prediction Center has issued an Outlook valid for Tuesday. This Outlook means that there is high confidence that convection will occur and initiate Thunderstorms with this event, which can drive up precipitation rates and total amounts. The Models are already picking up on mild levels of CAPE (Convective Available Potential Energy) , and only a few things have to line up for CAPE to be much higher on the day of the event.
