.
EVENT...NEARLY W-E MOTION OF CELLS ACROSS E CENTRAL NE/CENTRAL IA
.
SATELLITE ANALYSIS AND TRENDS...LARGE IR CLOUD SHIELD STILL COVERS
MUCH OF IA/ERN NE BUT THE COLDEST TOPS/LIGHTNING DATA/RADAR DATA HELP
TO INDICATE POSITIONING OF CELLS WITHIN IT. STRONGEST CELLS ARE SEEN
IN E CENTRAL NE STRETCHING FROM SW OF KOLU EWD TO KCBF. ADDTL STRONG
CELLS STRETCH EWD ACROSS CENTRAL IA IN A W-E MANNER TO THE WRN END OF
THE IL/WI BORDER. OBJECTIVE ANALYSIS INDICATES THETA-E AXIS SPLITS IN
2 DIRECTIONS AFTER COMING NWD INTO CENTRAL KS..ONE PART HEADING E/NEWD
INTO NW MO/S CENTRAL AND CENTRAL IA...AND THE OTHER PUSHING DUE N INTO
E CENTRAL NE. THIS APPEARS TO BE RESULTING FROM THE VEERING 850MB JET
ACROSS THE PLAINS STATES AND IS HELPING TO KEEP BOTH AREAS OF CNVTN
GOING STRONG FOR NOW..STILL PROVIDING GOOD MOISTURE FOR STORMS OVER ERN
NE AND ALONG THE LINE OF STORMS IN NE KS/NW MO/S CENTRAL TO CENTRAL IA.
.
WITH SEVERAL COLD TOPS OF -70 TO -72C OVER E CENTRAL NE..AND THE W-E
TRAINING OF CELLS ALONG WITH SOME BACKBUILDING TAKING PLACE INTO THE
LLJ AXIS..HVY RAINS HAVE CONTINUED TO INUNDATE THE ERN PART OF THE
STATE. WITH LARGE CLOUD SHIELD ONLY NOW BEINNING TO DISSIPATE..AUTOMATED
STLT ESTIMATES ARE OVERDONE IN AREAS WHERE THEY SHOULD NOT BE BUT DO
DISPLAY 1.5-2.5" AND SOME SPOT GREATER AMOUNTS IN THE PAST 3 HRS WHERE
STORMS HAVE TRACKED IN E CENTRAL NE. ACROSS CENTRAL IA..HIGHEST AMOUNTS
FOR 3 HRS ENDING 0645Z WERE 2.5-NEAR 3" AMOUNTS OVER BOONE/STORY/MARSHALL
COUNTIES. SHOULD SEE SOME MERGERS OCCUR AS REMNANTS OF OLD CELLS MOVING
INTO SW IA MEET THOSE IN CENTRAL IA NEXT HR OR TWO.
