SATELLITE ANALYSIS AND TRENDS...COLD FRONT THAT HAS ADVANCED ACROSS THE
EASTERN MIDWEST HAS STALLED ACROSS S IL/SW IL/W KY UNDER THE INFLUENCE
OF THE SHORTWAVE ACROSS KS/OK... WHERE SOUTHERLY FLOW IS SURGING THE
WARM FRONT NORTHWARD ACROSS S MO WITH TDS UP IN THE 60S ALREADY THERE.
SIGNIFICANT RIGHT ENTRANCE JET DYNAMICS CONTINUES TO BE VERY FAVORABLE
FOR BROAD ASCENT OVER THE TAIL END OF THE COLD FRONT SO CONVECTION HAS
BEEN MAINTAINED QUITE WELL HERE.  WITH SWLY FLOW ALOFT...CELLS ALONG THE
FRONT HAVE CONTINUED TO BACKBUILD/REDEVELOP IN THE SAME AREAS AROUND THE
MISS. RIVER AND WITH NEARLY PARALLEL FLOW HAVE TRAINED ACROSS S IL/SW IN
WITH SOME ESTIMATES OVER 2.0" IN THE LAST 2-3HRS ACROSS N KY.  WITH THE
SHORTWAVE IN OK/KS BEGINNING TO STALL AS THE MAIN TROF ADVANCES OUT OF THE
NORTHERN PLAINS... THE SWLY FLOW SHOULD CONTINUE AND WITH COUNTERACTING
NORTHERLY AND SLY FLOW ON THE FRONT...THE FOCUS FOR CONTINUED DEVELOPMENT
SHOULD REMAIN IN THE SAME LOCATION.  TO ADD INSULT TO INJURY...MOISTURE
WILL BE INCREASING IN THE LOW TO MIDLEVELS WITH POCKET OF DEEP CONVECTION
ACROSS NW AR MOVING INTO THE CELL REDEVELOPMENT REGION...WHICH COULD
LEAD TO A SLIGHT NORTHWARD EXPANSION OF FLOODING CONDITIONS INTO FAR N
PAH CWA AND E LSX CWA.  PLEASE SEE GRAPHIC AT WEB ADDRESS BELOW.
