.
SATELLITE ANALYSIS AND TRENDS...TWO CONVECTIVE CELLS THAT HAVE
DEVELOPED ALONG THE SFC BOUNDARY ACROSS N MO ARE MOVING SLOWLY TO THE
NE AND APPROACHING THE MO/IA BORDER.  THESE CELLS ARE INVOF DAVIESS/
GRUNDY/SULLIVAN/PUTNAM COUNTIES AND HAVE SHOWN RAPID CLOUD TOP COOLING
IN THE LAST 30 MINS.  CLOUD TOP TEMPS HAVE DROPPED FROM -55C AT 2015Z TO
HAVING OVERSHOOTING TOPS AT -72C IN 2045Z IR IMAGE.  THESE CELLS MAY BE
CAPABLE OF PRODUCING RAIN RATES OF 1.0-2.0"/HR..WITH HIGHER RATES NOT
OUT OF THE QUESTION AS HIGH LLVL MOISTURE IS POOLED ACROSS THIS AREA.
THERE IS THE POSSIBILITY THAT THESE TWO CELLS MAY MERGE CAUSING RATES
TO POTENTIALLY EXCEED 2.0"/HR.
