SATELLITE ANALYSIS AND TRENDS...A FEW CELLS MOSTLY IN ZAPATA COUNTY BUT
ALSO INTO WRN JIM HOGG/WRN STARR COUNTIES HAVE BEEN VERY SLOW MOVING
OVER PAST HR. SEWD MOVING OUTFLOW BNDRY SEEMS TO BE FOCUS FOR CELLS
BUT THE ONES OVER ZAPATA ARE HANGING BACK A GOOD DISTANCE BEHIND THIS
BNDRY. STLT/RADAR TRENDS INDICATE THAT SMALL MERGERS MAY OCCUR AS NEW
CELLS FORM ON THE MOVING OUTFLOW AND THEN GROW/INTERACT WITH CELLS TO THE
W. ESTIMATE THAT MAX RAIN RATES THUS FAR HAVE BEEN AROUND 1"/HR BUT SHOULD
INCREASE WITH ANY MERGERS THAT OCCUR. ALSO HAVE JUST NOTICED IN LATEST
VIS IMAGERY THE SEA BREEZE PUSHING CELLS N/NW ACROSS COASTAL AREAS OF MX
JUST S/SW OF BRO. WITH SEA BREEZE N OF BRO ALREADY STARTING TO SPARK SOME
CNVTN IN E KENEDY COUNTY..WOULD NOT BE SURPRISED IF IT BUILDS SWD DOWN THE
BNDRY...POSSIBLY SETTING UP SOME HVY RAINS IN NEXT FEW HRS FROM SEABREEZE
MEETING BNDRY TO THE W. DEEP MOISTURE IS CERTAINLY IN PLACE FOR IT WITH PW
VALUES OF 2.3-2.45" PER GOES SOUNDER/GPS VALUES. WILL CONTINUE TO MONITOR.
