SATELLITE ANALYSIS AND TRENDS...RAPID CLOUD TOP COOLING AND EXPANSION
HAS BEEN NOTED ALONG THE SW FLANK OF A SEVERE CONVECTIVE CELL MOVING
NEWD INVOF FRONTIER COUNTY/NE.  COLDEST CLOUD TOP TEMPS ARE NOW AT
-60C WITHIN THE CORE OF THIS CELL.  TO MAKE MATTERS WORSE IT APPEARS
THAT A ANOTHER CELL MOVING EWD ACROSS HAYES COUNTY WILL MERGE WITH THE
CELL OVER FRONTIER..BASED ON VIS ANIMATION..ONLY TO CAUSE RAIN RATES TO
INCREASE FURTHER.  STLT ESTIMATES SUGGEST RAIN RATES BETWEEN 1.75-2.0"/HR
IS VERY LIKELY ASSOCIATED WITH THIS CELL.  COUNTIES TO THE NORTH AND EAST
OF FRONTIER SHOULD BE PREPARED TO EXPERIENCE VERY HVY RAINFALL OVER THE
NEXT HR OR SO AS THIS CELL MOVES TO THE NORTHEAST.
