EVENT...REDEVELOPMENT ALONG SW END OF MCS COULD PROLONG CELL TRAINING
FOR AT LEAST NEXT HALF HOUR TO HOUR ESPECIALLY OVER S CENT NEB.
.
SATELLITE ANALYSIS AND TRENDS...LINEAR PORTION OF MCS HAD BEEN MAKING
STEADY EASTWARD PROGRESS OVER S CENT/CENT NEB. HOWEVER RECENT TRENDS FROM
IR/RADAR COMPOSITE LOOPS SHOW NEW DEVELOPMENT OCCURRING ALONG THE SW FLANK
OF THIS ACTIVITY EXTENDING BACK CLOSE TO THE KS/NEB BORDER AROUND RED
WILLOW/FURNAS COUNTIES OF NEB AND DECATUR/NORTON COUNTIES OF KS. THIS NEW
DEVELOPMENT APPEARS TO BE SLOWING DOWN THE SOUTHERN PORTION OF THE LINE
OVER S CENT NEB WHICH MAY LEAD TO A PERIOD OF CELL TRAINING DURING THE
NEXT HALF HOUR TO HOUR AFFECTING THE APPROXIMATE REGION INCLUDING PORTIONS
OF DAWSON/CUSTER/SHERMAN/BUFFALO COUNTIES. SATELLITE BASED ESTIMATED RATES
WITH THE STRONGEST CELLS ALONG THE SOUTHWESTERN PORTION OF THE MCS ARE
IN THE 1.5-2.0"/HR RANGE. ALSO, THE WEST-EAST ORIENTED CONVECTIVE LINE
ACROSS THE BORDER AREA OF KS/NEB IS TAKING ON THE APPEARANCE OF RAIN
COOLED BOUNDARY AND ALSO POTENTIALLY MAY BE THE FOCUS FOR LOCALLY HEAVY
RAINFALL DURING THE NEXT HOUR OR SO AS STRONG SOUTHERLY LOW LEVEL JET
OVERRUNS IT. ANNOTATED GRAPHIC OF SATELLITE FEATURES WILL BE AVAILABLE
ON THE INTERNET ADDRESS LISTED BELOW IN APPROXIMATELY 10 MINUTES.
