776 AGUS74 KWCO 031529 HMDNWC National Hydrologic Discussion - EXPERIMENTAL NWS National Water Center - Tuscaloosa AL 1015 AM CDT SUN AUG 3 2025 .Synopsis... Daily rainfall possible in the Southeast and Northern Plains... Isolated river flooding continues in Midwest... .Southeast... Daily rainfall is expected through day 5 (Thu) as a frontal boundary slowly moves southward. Most flooding impacts may be mitigated due to sandy and generally dry soils initially. Soil moisture conditions will increase through the event, thus increasing the potential for flooding impacts as well as a continued threat in urban areas. Given the expected slow movement of any storms and the already observed high rainfall rates, localized considerable flood impacts are not completely out of the question even in areas with drier antecedent conditions. .Northern Plains... Multiple days of showers and thunderstorms over the region through day 6 (Fri) will bring the potential for localized flash and urban flooding. In general, daily rainfall will be less than 1". Even with low daily rainfall accumulation, spread out over multiple days, it will increase the potential for more widespread impact and the potential for small stream flooding. .Midwest... Isolated moderate to major river flooding from recent rainfall will persist through late week across east-central Iowa on portions of the Iowa and Wapsipincion Rivers as water routes downstream. Widespread action to minor stage will persist from southern Minnesota into the middle Mississippi through next weekend. //GKendrick $$
