.
SATELLITE ANALYSIS AND TRENDS...STORMS JUST BEHIND THE FRONTAL BNDRY
HAVE BEEN TRAINING OVER THE SAME AREAS OF ERN CHERY COUNTY AND HOOKER
COUNTY FOR THE PAST 2.5 HRS ENDING 0015ZZ. MANUEL ESTIMATES GIVE AMOUNTS
OF 2.5-3.5" THAT HAS MOSTLY FALLEN IN E CHERRY IN THAT TIME PERIOD DUE
TO A MERGER AND OVERSHOOTING TOPS SEEN ON VIS IMAGERY AT TIMES. TAIL END
OF CELL HAS BEEN NEARLY STATIONARY JUST N OF HOOKER/CHERRY COUNTY BORDER
THOUGH COLDEST TOPS/HEAVIEST RAINFALL IS FARTHER TO THE NE. PROFILER DATA
SHOWS 25-30KT LOW LVL JET FROM DUE S THAT IS LIKELY PULLING MOIST AIR THE
WHOLE WAY FROM S TX..THROUGH OK/KS AND INTO SE NE WHERE IT THEN TURNS
AND INTERACTS WITH FRNT. RAPIDLY COOLING CLOUD TOPS IN OK ARE EVIDENCE
OF THIS..AS ARE THE CU FIELDS FLOWING N THROUGH N TX/OK. SFC WINDS
SHOW FRNT HAS BEEN PUSHED BACK TO KLBF. COMBINING THESE FACTORS MAKES
ME BELIEVE MOD/HVY RAINS AND OF MOST DANGER THE TRAINING CELLS COULD
CONTINUE ALONG A LINE FROM S/CENTRAL CHERRY COUNTY TO SE LYMAN/BRULE
COUNTIES IN SD. SEE WEB ADDRESS FOR GRAPHIC.
