.
SATELLITE ANALYSIS AND TRENDS...ENHANCING CELLS MOVING NWWD WILL
BE PRODUCING HVY RAINS OVER THE NEXT FEW HRS OVER THE SAME AREAS
THAT RECIEVED EXCESSIVE RAINFALL YDAY FROM STNRY/BACKBUILDING
CELLS. EDWARDS/VAL VERDE/KINNEY COUNTIES ARE MOST AT RISK DUE TO
THEIR EXTREMELY LOW FFG THOUGH REAL AND MAVERICK COUNTIES WILL HAVE TO
WATCHED CLOSELY AS WELL. CELLS HAVE NOW COOLED TO -73C OVER E KINNEY/NW
UVALDE. SERLY SFC WINDS DIRECTLY BEHIND THE CELLS WILL HELP TO PUSH
INDIVIDUAL STORMS ALONG TO THE NW WHILE AT THE MID/UPPER LVLS..SLTL
WINDS ARE FROM THE SW INDICATE THAT THE MOTION OF THE OVERALL CLUSTER
THAT MAY FORM ALONG THE RIO GRANDE FROM MERGERS W OF MAVERICK CO WILL BE
MORE NRLY. 1 HR HYDROESTIMATOR THROUGH 1130Z HAD PRODUCED A SMALL AREA
OF 1.3-1.5" IN CENTRAL UVALDE CO AND UP TO .8" IN SE KINNEY CO. SEE
WEB ADDRESS FOR GRAPHIC. JUST IN 1215Z IR IMAGE SHOWS THAT A MERGER
BETWEEN MULTIPLE CELLS HAS OR IS ABOUT TO OCCURR OVER THE RIO GRANDE IN
SW KINNEY CO. RAINFALL RATES THERE ARE LIKELY AROUND 2.5-3.5"/HR AS THE
CELLS MERGE. EXPECT RAIN RATES OF 1.5-2.5" TO CONTINUE AFTERWARD. SEE
WEB ADDRESS FOR GRAPHIC AND ESTIMATES.
