EVENT...RECENT CLOUD TOP WARM WITH ONSHORE CELLS...BUT STILL LOCAL
HVY RAINS...
.
SATELLITE ANALYSIS AND TRENDS...PARTICULAR CLOUD BAND CLOSE TO THE COAST
AFFECTING MOSTLY N BREVARD THRU FLAGLER COAST AND JUST INLAND HAD SHOWN
WARMING CLOUD TOP TEMPS PAST 1-2HRS...BUT VIS SHOWING HEALTHY LUMPINESS
TO CLOUDS...SO DOUBT MUCH IF ANY DECREASE IN RAIN RATES.  STILL CONCERNED
WITH TRAINING OF HEAVIER RAIN PRODUCING CELLS OVER THE SAME SPOT AND ALSO
OF CONCERN FROM MORNING SATELLITE WIND VECTORS WAS LESS THAN 20KTS WINDS
OVER THE AREA.  OFFSHORE PWS OF 2.2 INCHES WORKING CLOSE TO THE COAST
AND JUST INLAND...IF NOT NOW SHORTLY...AND QUITE A BIT OF DIFFERENTIAL
HEATING BETWEEN CONVECTIVE AREA AND SUNNY AREAS JUST TO THE SOUTH...SO
WOULD EXPECT LIS TO DESTABILIZE FURTHER FROM CURRENT GOES SOUNDER VALUES
OF -2 TO -5.  JUST TO THE NORTH...BANDS ARE NARROWER WITH WARMER CLOUD
TOPS...BUT MOISTURE AS HIGH AS 1.9 INCHES FAR NE FL AND BEST SURFACE
MOISTURE CONVERGENCE CENTERED ST JOHNS INTO PUTNAM...SO THIS AN AREA OF
CONCERN FOR TRAINING HVY RAIN CELL FOR THE FIRST PART OF THE AFTERNOON.
WILL CONTINUE TO MONITOR...
.
HYDROESTIMATES MAY BE A BIT LOW OVERLAND...BUT HAD A MAX 3 HR RAIN AMOUNT
OF 2.5 INCHES JUST OFFSHORE VOLUSIA COUNTY AT 28.8N/81.4W...
