SATELLITE ANALYSIS AND TRENDS...ISOLATED BUBBLING OF CONVECTION ALONG
THE RIO GRANDE IN SE BREWSTER COUNTY HAS BEEN CYCLING HAS RECENTLY HAD
SIGNIFICANT COOLING WITH VERY STRONG OVERSHOOTING TOPS.  STARTING WITH THE
2315Z IMAGE THE TWO OVERSHOOTS OVER THE BLACK GAP WILDLIFE MANAGEMENT AREA
HAS COOLED TO -70 TO -75C.  THESE CELLS WERE LOCATED IN FAIRLY IMPRESSIVE
SFC MST CONVERGENCE PER OBJECTIVE ANALYSIS FIELDS WITH PWS OF 1.5-1.7"
PER GOES SOUNDER AND MID 50S TDS...WHICH SHOWS GOOD MOISTURE FLUX FOR
EFFICIENT THUNDERSTORMS.  SLOW MOTION OF CELL CORES HAVE BEEN TYPICAL
WITH PRIOR CONVECTION AND IT APPEARS TO BE CONTINUING THOUGH EXPANSION
OF TOPS IS DOMINATING TRACKING OF FEATURES ON SATELLITE.  STILL CURRENT
RATES OF 1.5"-1.75"/HR IN THIS TOPOGRAPHY COULD LEAD TO QUICK ARRAYO
AND CHANNEL FF. CURRENT 2340Z IMAGE SHOWED SOME WARMING WITH THE LOSS
OF THE HIGHEST OVERSHOOTS BUT STILL IS QUITE COLD AT -68C.
