EVENT...SOME BACKBUILDING OCCURRING OVER N MO
.
SATELLITE ANALYSIS AND TRENDS...RECENT IR IMAGERY SHOWS THE CONTINUED
EXPANSION OF A COLD TOP CLUSTER OVER NRN MO WITH MERGING OCCURRING
BETWEEN THIS GROUP OF STORMS AND ADDTNL CELLS TO THE N. WITH 850 MB FLOW
DEPICTED BY PROFILERS ACROSS N OK/E KS/NW MO VEERING AND STRENGTHENING
NOW TO 25-35KT..AND POSSIBLY UP TO 40KTS ENTERING NW MO..RICH MOISTURE
TRANSPORT IS OCCURRING INTO THE W/SWRN END OF THESE STORMS. SOME
BACKBUILDING HAS BEEN SEEN IN RECENT STLT/RADAR IMAGERY..MOST NOTABLY
OVER PARTS OF HARRISON/GRUNDY/DAVIESS/LIVINGSTON AND LINN COUNTIES. PW
VALUES OF 1.4-1.5" EXIST FROM N OK TO E KS INTO N/CENTRAL MO PER RECENT
GOES SOUNDER/GPS AS THE MOISTURE TRANSPORT TO THE NE AND WAA OVER A WARM
FRNT POSITIONED NW-SE ACROSS MO CONTINUES TO FEED THE UPWIND SIDE OF THE
STORMS. GENERALLY W-E MID/UPPER FLOW DEPICTED BY STLT WINDS SHOULD ALLOW
FOR STORMS TO BE POSITIONED IN THIS SAME MANNER ALONG AND JUST S OF THE
IA/MO BORDER EXTENDING ACROSS CETNRAL IL DURING THE NEXT FEW HRS WITH NEW
CELLS FORMING/BACKBUILDING OCCURRING TO THE W WITH HEAVIEST RAINS LIKELY
TO BE BETWEEN KIRK AND KCDJ. STLT ESTIMATES INDICATE RAINRATES OF 2"/HR
ARE OCCURRING AND SHOULD REMAIN FAIRLY COMMON WITH SOME CASES EXCEEDING
2"/HR RATES. DUE TO THE EXPECTED BACKBUILDING/REFORMING OF CELLS AND
OCCASSIONAL MERGERS ESTIMATED RAINFALL AMOUNTS IN A 1 HR PERIOD MAY BE
UP TO 2" AS WELL WHERE STORMS REMAIN FOCUSED. SEE WEB ADDRESS BELOW FOR
GRAPHIC IN ABOUT 10 MIN.
