LINE
.
SATELLITE ANALYSIS AND TRENDS...RECENT VIS IMAGERY INDICATES CONVECTIVE
CELLS HAVE INTENSIFIED ACROSS EXTREME S AL/EXTREME SE LA AND FURTHER SW
IN TO THE GULF OF MEX.  THESE CELLS ARE BEGINNING TO ALIGN IN A LINEAR
ORIENTATION FROM SW TO NW.  THE LINE AS A WHOLE IS MOVING ENEWD..HOWEVER
INDIVIDUAL CELL EMBEDDED WITHIN THE LINE SEEM TO BE MOVING NNEWD.
THE DIRECTION OF THESE CELLS IS CONSISTENT TO MID-LVL 700-500MB SW FLOW.
THE SOUTHERLY LLVL JET POSITIONED S-N ACROSS PANHANDLE OF FL NWD INTO
AL REMAINS MOD/STRONG WITH 25-30 KTS WINDS PER LATEST PROFILER DATA
CONTINUES TO FEED LLVL MOISTURE AHEAD OF THE SYSTEM AS GOES STLT AND
GPS NETWORK PWS VALUES REMAIN AROUND 1.5-1.7".
.
IF THIS LINE OF CONVECTION CONTINUES TO MOVE ENEWD AND INDIVIDUAL CELLS
MOVE NNEWD TRAINING OF CELLS WILL BE VERY LIKELY OVER S AND CENT MS/FL
PANHANDLE IN THE NEXT 1-3 HRS..WHERE HVY RAINS ARE ALREADY OCCURRING.
HVY RAINS SHOULD BE EXPECTED ASSOCIATED WITH THESE CELLS AND CELL TRAINING
WILL ONLY PROLONG THIS.
