SATELLITE ANALYSIS AND TRENDS...LINE OF STORMS ALONG AN OLD PRE-FRONTAL
BNDRY STRETCHES FROM SE MO ACROSS SE IL INTO N IND AND IS NOW EXTENDING
INTO SW LOWER MI AS WELL. CLOUD TOPS ARE AROUND -63C FOR MOST OF
THE LINE EXCEPT FOR TWO SLIGHTLY COLDER TOPS WHICH ARE BOTH NEAR
-66C..ONE CROSSING THE IL/IN BORDER AT KHUF/IN AND THE OTHER JUST S OF
KLAF/IN. WHILE 1915/1932Z IMAGE DID SHOW SOME CONTRACTION IN THE IR ALONG
TEH NRN END OF THE LINE BUT VIS SHOWS TWO OVERSHOOTING TOPS STILL PRESENT
CLOSE TO THE IN/MI BORDER..THOUGH THE DECAY OF ONE LARGE CELL ALONG THE
LINE AS IT MOVED INTO IND DOES SEEM TO HAVE WEAKENED THE ENTIRE LINE
A BIT..EXCEPT FOR THE NEWLY FORMED SRN PART. AM MOST CONCERNED THOUGH
WITH FILLING IN BETWEEN THE STRONG LINE OF STORMS AND THE CNVTN MOVING
ACROSS N IND/W OH THOUGH IT APPEARS THAT CELLS ARE HAVING A DIFFICULT
TIME DOING THIS. PERHAPS BEST CHC OF MERGING WILL NOW BE WITH CNVTN
FORMING OVER W KY/SW IN BETWEEN THE LINE AND CELLS TO THE E. AT LEAST
THE LINE IS FAIRLY PROGRESSIVE THOUGH AS THE NEXT LARGE S/WV SEEN IN WV
HELPS TO KICK THE UPPER SYSTEM OUT OF ITS POSITION OVER ND/MN.
.
AS SAID IN PREVIOUS SPENES MESSAGE..CELLS WERE FORMING OVER W TN/W KY
THAT ARE FEEDING NNEWD INTO SRN IND AND SHOULD CAUSE MERGERS AS WELL
AS THE SRN HALF OF THE STRONG LINE PUSHES EWD DURING THE AFTRN. SOME
EXPANDING/COOLING TOPS HAVE ALSO BEEN ORGANIZING OVER N KY/W OH AND
WILL ALSO GAIN SUPPORT FROM THE INITIATING CU STREAMING NWD INTO OH
VLY..POSSIBLY CAUSING SOME TRAINING OF CELLS. AUTOMATED STLT ESTIMATES
FOR THE HR ENDING 1915Z CLEARLY SHOW THE TWO LINES OF COLDER TOPS WITH
AMOUNTS OF UP TO 1.2" DEPICTED BUT MISS SOME OF THE WARMER TOPPED CELLS
THAT WERE JUST FORMING BETWEEN THE TWO LINES AND OVER SOME OF W OH. SEE
