Although the level of moisture flowing through the sky doesn’t have a one-to-one relationship with rainfall amounts, having more moisture can boost the odds for rainfall extremes, if there’s a force to squeeze that moisture out, such as the cluster of thunderstorms that hit the #GrandCanyon.

This weekend, there was an additional force at play. Moisture from the remnants of #TropicalStorm #Iselle was flowing across the West, siphoned inland by a #HeatDome & further waterlogging the atmosphere.

Hey look! It's #TropicalStorm #Sepat, tropical cyclone №.2 in the Western North Pacific this year.

• It is expected to skirt the east coast of #Honshu, #Japan, by late Wednesday night and Thursday morning, before steering back out to sea.
• It is not expected to strengthen beyond #TropicalStorm intensity.
• The name Sepat is the Malay word for a genus of fish in the gurami family.
