EVENT...RAPIDLY INCREASING CONVECTION
.
SATELLITE ANALYSIS AND TRENDS...CONVECTION CONTINUES TO RAPIDLY DEVELOP
SINCE 0230Z IN THE MID-MISSOURI VALLEY MOSTLY ALONG THE NEBRASKA AND IOWA
BORDER.  GOOD MOISTURE FLOW INTO THIS REGION IS INDICATED IN SOUNDER DATA.
MAX RAIN RATES OF AROUND 1.0" PER HALF-HOUR ARE SEEN IN IR IMAGERY.
WHAT IS IMPRESSIVE IS THAT MORE COLD-TOP CELLS HAVE BEEN DEVELOPING
AND ARE PROGRESSING INTO THIS SAME REGION FROM NORTHEASTERN KANSAS.
THIS WILL NOT BODE WELL FOR ONGOING FLASH-FLOODING CONDITIONS ESPECIALLY
IN WESTERN IOWA.  WITH CURRENT ESTIMATED RAIN RATES, POSSIBLE SIGNIFICANT
FLOODING WILL OCCUR THRU THE NEXT FEW HOURS.
