EVENT...BUILDING TCU OVER W CLARK/LINCOLN COUNTIES AND THEIR NRN/SRN
BORDERS
.
SATELLITE ANALYSIS AND TRENDS...STRNY LN OF CU/TCU HAS BEEN INCRG OVER THE
WRN PART OF THE CLARK COUNTY WHILE SMALL N-S LN OF TCU/WARM TOP TSTM HAS
BEEN DEVELOPING OVER N CLARK/S LINCOLN COUNTY BORDER AREA. TCU/LOW CB'S
ALSO HAVE BEEN DEVELOPING OVER WRN LINCOLN COUNTY.  POSSIBILITY EXISTS
FOR FURTHER DEVELOPMENT..WHICH COULD LEAD TO HVY RAINFALL.
.
THUS FAR..SIGNIFICANT DEVELOPMENT HAS BEEN LIMITED BY CONVECTIVE
INHIBITION PER GOES SOUNDER..AND HIGH TEMP/DEW POINT SPREAD PER
OBS. HOWEVER..GOES SOUNDER DOES SHOW NW EXTENT OF PW PLUME EXTENDING INTO
CLARK AND SRN LINCOLN COUNTIES..WITH PW VALUES OVER SRN NV RANGING FM 1"
OVER SRN LINCOLN TO 1.3" PLUS ALONG THE S NV/AZ BORDER.
.
AS MENTIONED ABOVE..THERE ARE SOME LIMITING FACTORS TO HVY
RAIN. HOWEVER...GIVEN THAT UPPR FLOW IS ON THE LIGHT SIDE AND IS PARALLEL
TO CURRENT AREAS OF TCU/LOW CB'S...IF CONVECTIVE INHIBITION DECREASES AND
CNVTN INTENSIFIES..LTL OR SLOW MOVEMENT WILL RESULT IN RAPID MOISTENING
OF ATMOSPHERE..ALONG WITH THE POSSIBILITY OF HVY RAIN OVER WRN/NRN CLARK
AND WRN/SRN LINCOLN COUNTIES. CELL MERGERS WOULD ALSO CONTRIBUTE TO HVY
RAIN CHANCES..ESP OVER LINCOLN COUNTY.
