SATELLITE ANALYSIS AND TRENDS...WV IMAGERY SHOWS A TROF MOVING THROUGH
THE WRN US ALLOWING FOR RIDGING TO BUILD ALOFT OVER E NE/W IA. THIS
IS OVER TOP OF A SFC LOW AND WARM FRNT THAT EXTENDS ACROSS CENTRAL IA
TO SW WI. OBJECTIVE ANALYSIS INDICATES THETA-E AXIS EXTENDS NEWD AHEAD
OF THE FRNT TO SE IA/NW IL AND BEST SFC MOISTURE CNVG IS PRESENT FROM
NEAR KTQE TO KMSN FEEDING INTO THE SWRN END OF THE CLUSTERED CELLS
OVER S CENTRAL WI ALONG THE WARM FRNT. SFC DWPTS SHOW JUST HOW RICH
THE MOISTURE IS WITH MID TO HIGH 70S DWPTS OVER MOST OF IA INTO NW IL/S
WI. 1.75"-1.8" PW VALUES EXIST ACROSS IA INCREASING TO 2" VALUES IN W
IL/N MO SO DEEPEST MOISTURE IS NOT FAR AWAY AND BEING LIFTED NNEWD BY
850MB WINDS PER PROFILERS/VWPS. IT APPEARS AS THOUGH THE 850MB JET IS
STILL SOMEWHAT SPLIT COMING INTO THE MIDWEST AS PART OF THE FLOW GOES
ACROSS CENTRAL IL TO IN AND PART GOES MORE NWD INTO S CENTRAL AND E IA.
.
VIS IMAGERY SHOWS A LARGE CU FIELD ALREADY PRESENT WITHIN THE WARM SECTOR
AND SOME STORMS THAT HAVE TRIED TO DVLP N OF THE WARM FRNT. THOUGH
VERY UNSTABLE..BELIEVE UPPER LVL RIDGING MENTIONED ABOVE HAS HELPED
TO INHIBIT GROWTH OF CELLS THUS FAR AND SHOULD KEEP THE HEAVIEST RAINS
FROM DVLPG UNTIL TONIGHT. THOUGH WITH RELATIVELY LOW FFG OVER MUCH OF
THE DISCUSSION AREA..STILL POSSIBLE WITH ANY STORMS THAT ARE ABLE TO
DVLP TO POSSIBLY CAUSE FF CONDITIONS. OVER ERN IA INTO SW WI..STORMS ARE
JUST FAR ENOUGH E THAT THEY HAVE NOT BEEN AFFECTED AS MUCH BY UPPER LVL
RIDGING AND THUS CELLS HAVE FORMED IN NW IL THAT ARE MOVING NEWD TWDS THE
CLUSTER MOVING SLOWLY E IN S WI. CLOUD TOP TEMPS ON THE CLUSTER ARE AT
-73C OVER PARTS OF ADAMS/JUNEAU COUNTIES WITH MORE TOWERING CU FEEDING
INTO THE END OF THE LINE CAUSING MERGING CELLS OVER IOWA/SAUK/RICHLAND
COUNTIES CURRENTLY. MANUEL STLT ESTIMATES FROM 1815-1915Z INDICATE MAX
RAINFALL AMOUNTS OF 2.0-2.4" HAVE OCCURRED FROM THE CLUSTER.
