EVENT...STORMS CONTINUE TO DVLP IN MONSOONAL MOISTURE
.
SATELLITE ANALYSIS AND TRENDS...VIS/IR IMAGERY SHOW SEVERAL AREAS OF
STORMS OVER THE SW WITH MOST OF THE STRONGER CELLS SITUATED OVER SRN
AZ THOUGH SOME MOD RAINS CONTINUE TO FALL FROM THE OLDER CELLS STILL
PROGRSSING NWD OVER SW TO CENTRAL NM. VIS SHOWS STRONGEST NEWLY DVLPG
CELLS HAVE BEEN OVER COCHISE COUNTY EXPANDING INTO SRN GRAHAM/WRN
HIDALGO COUNTIES AND CLOUD TOPS OVER ERN COCHISE ARE TO -67C. OF MORE
CONCERN THOUGH SEEMS TO BE CLUSTER OVER WRN PIMA COUNTY WHICH HAS BEEB
EXPANDING/MOVING TO SLOWLY TO THE WNW..JUST S OF GBN WHILE ANOTHER COLD
TOP IS PRESENT AND NRLY STNRY JUST ENE OF GBN..REMAINING IN ONE PLACE FOR
ALMOST AN HR NOW. STLT WINDS DEPICT A SMALL AREA OF UPPER LVL DIFFLUENCE
OVER SW AZ THAT MAY BE HELPING TO SUPPORT THE LARGER COMPLEX OVER PIMA
COUNTY. GOES SOUNDER PW VALUES INDICATE 1.4-1.8" VALUES OVER SRN AZ
THAT RAPIDLY DROP OFF TO ONLY 0.5" PW'S N OF KFLG SO DEEP MOISTURE IS
CERTAINLY AVAILABLE TO ENHANCE RAINRATES. CIRA TPW LOOP SHOWS 200% OF
NORMAL MOISTURE OVER THE MOGOLLON RIM AREA AND 180-190% OF NORMAL OVER
SE AZ/SW NM. ADDTL CELLS CAN BE SEEN IN VIS IMAGERY MOVING NWD IN THE
FLOW FROM S OF SANTA CRUZ/COCHISE/HIDALGO COUNTIES AND SHOULD BEGIN TO
CROSS THE US/MX BORDER IN 1-2 HRS TIME.
.
HAVE NOTICED IN HI RES VIS IMAGERY WHAT APPEARS TO BE A SMALL VORT
CROSSING FROM GRANT COUNTY INTO CATRON COUNTY/NM THOUGH REALLY NO SFC
OBS THERE TO TELL FOR SURE. CELLS APPEAR TO BE TRYING TO FORM INVOF THE
WHITE MTNS NEAR THIS POSSIBLE VORT BUT HAVE YET TO BECOME ESTABLISHED
THOUGH THAT AREA SHOULD BE WATCHED FOR SLOW/STNRY STORMS IF THEY CONTINUE
TO DVLP. SEE WEB ADDRESS FOR GRAPHIC IN ABOUT 10 MIN.
