945 PM EDT SAT JUN 10 1995

LATEST 88D LOOP FROM KCCX SHOWS A FEW PESKY SHOWERS OVER THE
SOUTH CENTRAL MOUNTAINS...AND THAT'S ABOUT IT.  BEING COVERED IN
THE NOW'S.  ALL OTHER PCPN WILL HOLD OFF UNTIL AFTERNOON...WHICH
AGREES WITH CURRENT ZONES.

THINKING FROM PIT AND PHL SEEM PRETTY MUCH IN LINE.  WAVE FORMING
ON COLD FRONT WILL SLOW THE SYSTEM AS IS TRIES TO PUSH EAST.
LIKE THE IDEA OF WAITING ON THE ISSUANCES OF FLASH FLOOD WATCHES
(AL LA PIT) UNTIL A BETTER IDEA OF LOCATION...TIMING AND COVERAGE
OF PCPN.  AS PHL POINTS OUT IN PVS DISCUSSION...BEST CHANCE FOR
HEAVY PCPN (OTHER THAN ISOLATED WITH TSTMS) IS LATER TONIGHT
ACROSS CENTRAL AND EASTERN PA.

LITTLE TO ADD TO CURRENT ZONES.
