WEAK SHORT WAVE WAS TRIGGERING WARM TOP CONVECTIVE CELLS NOW MOVING THRU
RELATIVELY LOW GUIDANCE VALUE AREAS OF WEST CENTRAL IOWA.  00Z KOMA
SOUNDING HAD EQUILIBRIUM LEVEL TEMP AT -45C AND THAT IS CLOSE TO THE
TEMP OF THE COLDEST CLOUD TOPS NOW MOVING THRU THE

JUST THE POSSIBILITY THAT ONE OF TWO CELLS GO OVER ONE SPOT TO CAUSE
SOME ISOLATED HVY RAIN PROBLEMS AND THIS CENTERED FROM AUDUBON TO ADAIR
