EVENT...DEVELPOPING FRONTAL CONVECTION
.
SATELLITE ANALYSIS AND TRENDS...RAPID DEVELOPMENT OF CONVECTIVE CELLS
IS OCCURRING ALONG THE SURFACE CONVERGENCE BOUNDARY WHICH IS THE
COLD FRONT.  THIS LINE OF DEVELOPMENT IS TAKING PLACE FROM CENTRAL
MISSOURI...THROUGH WESTERN AND NORTHERN ILLINOIS...INTO SOUTHEAST
WISCONSIN.  PW'S APPROACHING 1.25" AND TD'S IN THE MID AND UPPER 50'S
WILL AID IN FUELING THE INCREASING RAIN RATES ASSOCIATED WITH THESE CELLS.
.
ALTHOUGH THERE APPEAR TO BE 3 AREAS OF CURRENT ACTIVITY...CENTRAL MO,
W. IL, S.E. WI AND N.IL....THE AREAS OF MOST CONCERN FOR THE NEAR FUTURE
ARE ADAMS COUNTY IN W. IL BACK INTO MARION COUNTY IN MO....AND WARM-TOPPED
CELLS IN FROM WINNEBAGO COUNTY IN N. IL INTO WALWORTH COUNTY IN S.E. WI.
.
IN THE MO/IL AREA, MAX ESTIMATED HALF-HOURLY RAIN RATES OF .6" ARE
POSSIBLE WITH AN ESTIMATED TOTAL OF 1.2" IN MARION COUNTY FROM 2015-2115Z.
WITH MORE CONVECTIVE CELLS SLIDING NEWRD THROUGH THIS REGION OVER THE
NEXT COUPLE OF HOURS...3 HR FFG VALUES WILL BE BREACHED.
.
IN THE IL/WI REGION ESTIMATED .5" TO .75" MAX HALF-HOUR RATES COULD
PROBABLY CAUSE EVEN MORE PROBLEMS OVER FROZEN GROUND.  THIS LINE OF RAIN
WILL TRANSLATE NEWRD INTO THE MILWAUKEE AREA FOR A TIME.
