SATELLITE ANALYSIS AND TRENDS...HVY RAINFALL PRODUCING THUNDERSTORMS WERE
HANGING UP A BIT OVER NW MARICOPA BUT RAPIDLY BEGAN TO SURGE SOUTHWARD
TOWARD HIGHER MOISTURE AND INSTABILITY AS NEW STORMS DEVELOPED ON OUTFLOW
OR NEW DEVELOPMENT DEVELOPED MAKING THE MCS APPEAR TO MOVE QUICKLY.
CURRENTLY NEW CELLS ARE BURSTING ACROSS WESTERN PIMA COUNTY WITH
OVERSHOOTING TOPS COLDER THAN -70C...WHICH ARE CAPABLE OF PRODUCING
RATES IN EXCESS OF 2"/HR WITH PWS OVER 2" PER GOES SOUNDER THOUGH THE
RAPID MOVING OF THE CORES/NEW DEVELOPMENT QUICKLY MOVES ON WITH RAINFALL
TOTALS LESS THAN 2".  STILL HYDROESTIMATOR HAS DONE WELL WITH TRACKING
THE INDIVIDUAL COLDEST TOPS...THOUGH THE PROCESSING TIME HAS BEEN SLOW
TONIGHT. BELOW ARE SOME TOTALS... PLEASE SEE WEB ADDRESS BELOW FOR
