SATELLITE ANALYSIS AND TRENDS...RECENT IR TRENDS SHOW THE LINE FROM KDMX
TO KMKE AS A WHOLE HAS BEEN WARMING BUT STILL HAS COLD ENOUGH TOPS TO
PRODUCE 1-1.5"/HR TOTALS WHICH NEAR OR ECLIPSE FFG VALUES ALONG THE PATH.
ORIENTATION OF THE LINE HAS BECOME MORE E-W AND NEARLY PARALLEL TO WSWLY
LLJ THAT HAS BEEN SUPPORTING GOOD MOISTURE INFLOW FOR MAINTENANCE OF THE
LINE...BUT THE COLD POOL APPEARS TO BE WINNING OUT AS WINDS ARE SHIFTING
TO THE N AND NE ACROSS WI.  THE WEAKENING TREND WILL CONTINUE BUT GOOD
SFC CONVERGENCE OF RICH MST ENVIRONMENT (LOW TO MID 70S TDS).

CENTRAL/NE IA...LINE IS A BIT COLDER TOPPED MOST LIKELY DUE TO BETTER
INFLOW AS LLJ APPEARS A BIT BETTER ORIENTED AS WELL AS A SLIGHT INCREASE
IN WINDS...TO NEAR 50KTS...WITH UPSTREAM SHORTWAVE EJECTING INTO HIGH
PLAINS PER WV...SHORTWAVE RIDGING AND WAA HAS LEAD TO UPSTREAM DEVELOPMENT
OF THUNDERSTORMS THAT MAY HOLD UP OR PIVOT THE WESTERN PORTION OF THE
LINE BACK NORTHWARD...LEADING TO STATIONARY  CELL MOTION REDEVELOPMENT
OR TRAINING ALONG A WEBSTER TO GRUNDY COUNTY LINE. STILL WITH HIGH MST
FLUX AND LOW FFG VALUES...HOURLY TOTALS OVER 1-2" WILL CONTINUE TO POSE
FF THREATS.
