The wet trend continued by the end of the month as another TUTT approaches the area. At first, this mid to upper level feature combined with moisture being pulling from the deep tropics into the region. Later in the period, a tropical wave was added to the mixture, further increasing moisture content and instability. A Flash Flood Watch was issued due to the excessive rainfall expected.
