SATELLITE ANALYSIS AND TRENDS...VIS IMAGERY SHOWING CONVECTIVE CELL
OVER KEARNY COUNTY IN SW KS AHEAD OF THE SWD MOVING HEAVY RAIN CELL
JUST ENTERING NRN FINNEY COUNTY.  CLOUD TOP TEMPS FOR BOTH AREAS ARE
BETWEEN -70C AND -73C.  WITH PW VALUES AROUND 1.3" PER GOES SOUNDER/GPS
DATA..EXPECTING THAT A MERGER COULD PRODUCE VERY HEAVY RAIN OF UP TO 2.0"
IN 30 MIN IN SOME LOCATIONS.  THINKING PRECIP SHOULD CONTINUE TO PUSH
SWD AS NRN STORM MOVES THROUGH..BUT SOME HANGUP IS POSSIBLE AFTER THE
MERGER..SO SOME AREAS COULD SEE THE HEAVY RAINS FOR LONGER A BIT LONGER.

CHECK WEB IN 10-25 MIN FOR ATTACHED GRAPHIC.
