SATELLITE ANALYSIS AND TRENDS...PLOT OF SFC WINDS SHOWS A W-E ORIENTED
SFC CNVG ZONE IS PRESENT FROM NE MO EWD TO SW OH. LINEAR STORM COMPLEX
OVER W/CENTRAL IL HAS BECOME MORE W-E ORIENTED DURING THE PAST HR IN
THIS SFC CNVG ZONE AND VIS IMAGERY SHOWS ADDTL CELLS BEGINNING TO FORM
AHEAD OF IT OVER E CENTRAL IL/W CENTRAL IN. THESE CELLS WILL PROPAGATE
FROM W-E CROSSING KEYE AND MAY EVEN JOIN INTO THE SWRN END OF THE LINE
THAT IS CURRENTLY CROSSING OH/NW PA IN A FEW HRS TIME. RECENT STLT WINDS
OVER E IL/IN INDICATE DUE WRLY FLOW AT THE LOW/MID AND UPPER LVLS WHICH
WILL MAKE FOR EFFICIENT RAINFALL PRODUCING STORMS. AREA VWPS DO SHOW A
SLIGHT WSW COMPONENT THOUGH TO 850MB FLOW WHICH ACCOUNTS FOR SLIGHT ENEWD
DRIFT SHOWN BY CU/SMALL CELLS IN S/E IL. PW VALUES PER GPS/GOES SOUNDER
ARE AROUND 2" WITH SFC DWPTS IN THE LOW-MID 70S. SEVERAL OVERSHOOTING
TOPS CONTINUE TO BE SEEN AS WELL IN VIS IMAGERY ON THE CLUSTER MOVING
ACROSS IL AND ON THE PART OF THE LINE STILL BACK IN NE MO.
.
PER STLT RECENT STLT ESTIMATES..THE STORMS MOVING ACROSS IL HAVE HAD
A HISTORY OF PRODUCING RAINRATES UP TO 1.5"/HR OR SLIGHTLY HIGHER AND
ESTIMATED 3HR AMOUNTS OF 2-2.6" OVER ADAMS/BROWN COUNTIES IN IL AND
MARION COUNTY IN MO. EXPECT WITH TRAINING OF THESE CELLS THOUGH AND IN
SUCH A DEEP MOISTURE ENVIRONMENT..RAINRATES COULD INCREASE JUST A BIT
TO 1.5-2"/HR ONCE BECOMING ALIGNED W-E. SEE WEB ADDRESS FOR GRAPHICS
AND ESTIMATE SHORTLY.
