EVENT...LINE OF CONVECTION OVER NW KANSAS AND SW NEBRASKA CONTINUES TO
GENERATE HEAVY RAINFALL
.
SATELLITE ANALYSIS AND TRENDS...CNVTN HAS BEEN SLOW TO DRIFT EAST THIS
AFTN/EVE AS SFC MOISTURE CONVERGENCE BULLSEYE HAS INTENSIFIED AND REMAINED
NRLY STNRY. LOW LEVEL INFLOW REMAINS STG WITH 8H WINDS INCRG TO 45 KTS
AS PER LATEST PROFILER DATA. AVBL MOISTURE HAS INCRD SOMEWHAT THIS EVE
WITH GOES DERIVED PW'S SHOWING 1.5" IN CENTRAL KS.
.
WITH SLOW MVMNT OF LN ACRS NW KS/SW NE THIS HAS ALLOWED FOR REPEAT
CNVTN. UPR DIFFLUENCE HAS INCRD IN PAST FEW HRS DUE TO CNVTV FEEDBACK
WHICH IS ALLOWING FOR HIGHER RAINFALL RATES. NUMEROUS OVERSHOOTING TOPS
ALSO ADDING TO RAINFALL RATES. AUTOMATED STLT ESTS ARE SHOWING MAX 3
HR AMNTS OF ARND 1.5" BUT FEEL THAT THIS IS TOO LOW GIVEN STLT FEATURES
NOTED. 2-3" AMNTS IN A LN FROM LINCOLN COUNTY NE TO SHERIDAN COUNTY KS
ARE MORE LIKELY WITH LOCALIZED HIGHER TOTALS. STILL FEEL THAT LN WILL
GRDLY SHIFT EWRD THRU THE EVE AND OVERNIGHT..WITH THE SRN PORTION OF
THE LN MVG FASTER IN RESPONSE TO LARGER SCALE EVOLUTION OF UPR LOW AND
STRONGER FLOW ROTATING ARND BASE OF LOW.
