EVENT...BAROCLINIC LEAF DEFORMATION SNOW TRANSLATING EAST WITH KS VORT...
.
SATELLITE ANALYSIS AND TRENDS...MAIN VORT MOVING ACROSS NW KS WITH SLOW
BUT STEADILY EASYWARD MOVING TROUGH RIGHT BEHIND FROM W SD THRU THE
TX PANHANDLE.  POLAR JET CONTINUES TO SHIFT EAST AND ALIGNED FROM
SW/W OKLAHOMA THRU EASTERN IA AND DEFORMATION/BAROCLINIC LEAF FROM
INTERIOR NW KS THRU S CENTRAL NEBRASKA INTO NE NEBRASKA.  EXPECT ALL THESE
FEATURES ALONG WITH PRECIP TO MOVE EAST AND AS FEATURES GET INTO SLIGHTLY
HIGHER MOISTURE...WOULD EXPECT PRECIP RATES TO SLOWLY INCREASE AS WELL.
EXTRAPOLATING PROJECTION OF JET AXIS TO SHIFT TO KS-MO BORDER INTO SW
IA BY 12Z AND N CENTRAL/NE MO INTO SE IA BY 18Z...WITH BEST DEFORMATION
PRECIP ABOUT 2-3 DEGREES LATITUDE WEST AND NW OF THERE AT EACH TIME.
WILL CONTINUE TO MONITOR...
