.
SATELLITE ANALYSIS AND TRENDS...CERTAINLY STATING THE OBVIOUS BUT ALL
SATELLITE TRENDS POINT TOWARD VERY HEAVY RAINFALL THREAT FOR NEXT SEVERAL
HOURS ALONG AXIS FROM NERN OK ACROSS S MO AS CELL TRAINING IN VERY HIGH
MOISTURE ENVIRONMENT CONTINUES. DISCUSSED THE SITUATION WITH HPC LEAD
PRIOR TO THEIR ISSUANCE OF LATEST QPFERD. CURRENTLY MONITORING SIGNIFICANT
BATCH OF ENHANCED CONVECTION ASSOCIATED WITH MESOSCALE CONVECTIVE IMPULSE
MOVING ACROSS NERN OK WHICH WILL ALSO MOVE INTO APPROXIMATE REGION OF
SW MO AROUND JASPER/NEWTON/LAWRENCE COUNTIES ALREADY IMPACTED BY VERY
HEAVY RAINFALL. RAINFALL RATES WITH THE STRONGEST CELLS IN NERN OK/SW
MO ARE ESTIMATED IN THE .8"-1.2"/HALF HOUR RANGE. 3 HOUR AUTOMATED
SATELLITE ESTIMATES HAVE BEEN RUNNING GENERALLY IN THE 2.0-3.5" FOR
THE COLDER TOPPED BATCH MOVING ACROSS CENT TO NERN OK. FARTHER TO THE
EAST MERGING CELLS HAVE AFFECTED SHANNON/CARTER COUNTIES OF SE MO WITH
AT LEAST 2-3" ESTIMATED IN THE PAST 1-2 HOURS. LATEST IMAGERY THROUGH
1345Z SHOWS THIS ACTIVITY NOT MOVING MUCH AND MORE ACTIVITY JUST WEST
OF THERE SO SITUATION SHOULD CONTINUE TO WORSEN AND POSSIBLY EXPAND TO
INCLUDE COUNTIES OF HOWELL/OREGON.
