EVENT...OVERSHOOTING TOPS JUST OFFSHORE OF THE BIG ISLAND
.
SATELLITE ANALYSIS AND TRENDS...WV IMAGERY SHOWS SMALL UPPER LOW NEAR
34N/158W STARTING TO PROGRESS TO THE NE AND ANOTHER S/WV FORMING NEAR
28N/157W. MUCH LARGER UPPER LOW SW OF THE S CA COAST IS PUSHING SLOWLY
WWD SQUISHING AN UPPER LVL ANTICYLONIC CENTER INTO THE MOISTURE PLUME
AND HELPING TO HOLD IT IN PLACE NEAR 155W AND OVER HAWAII. IR IMAGERY
SHOWS THAT THE CELLS OVER THE WRN HALF OF THE BIG ISLAND HAVE WARMED AND
THE TOPS HAVE COLLAPSED. HOWEVER VIS IMAGERY SHOWS NEW CELLS OFF THE SW
PART OF THE ISLAND AND SOME EVEN ALONG THE W/CENTRAL SHORELINE THAT HAVE
OVERSHOOTING TOPS. MCIDAS OBJECTIVE ANALYSIS POINTS TO THIS AREA FOR
HAVING STRONG MOISTURE CONVERGENCE STILL SO ADDITIONAL CELL FORMATION
OFF THE WRN COAST OF THE ISLAND IS STILL POSSIBLE OVER THE NEXT FEW HRS
WITH SOME OF THESE MOVING OVERLAND. PW VALUES HAVE DECREASED SLIGHTLY
SINCE EARLIER IN THE DAY AND ARE NOW AROUND 1.6-1.8" S OF THE CENTRAL
ISLANDS IN THE CHAIN PER 2315Z AMSU PASS. SEE WEB ADDRESS IN ABOUT 10
