317 AM EDT WED AUG 27 2003

WITH COLD FRONT STILL IN MICHIGAN, AND NO NEW GUIDANCE, THERE IS LTL TO
CHANGE. I DID UP POPS TODAY TO 50% FROM PIT SEWD, AND 40% NW OF PIT. IT
IS A LTL HIER THAN MY NEIGHBORS, BUT WITHIN THE 20% WINDOW PERMITTED.
LOOKS LIKE FRONT WILL FINALLY REACH MASON DIXON LINE BY MIDNIGHT
TONIGHT. KEPT THE IDEA OF SHWRS/TSTMS ALONG MY SRN TIER TIL MIDN. EVERY
TSTM SEEMS TO BE SVR WITH HAIL OR WIND OR FLOOD.

MAY NEED TO CONSIDER FLOOD WATCH. TRAINING THAT OCCURRED EARLIER S OF
CLE IS MOVING SE. WL WATCH AND SEE IF IT STRETCHES OUT AND STARTS
TRAINING IN MY CWA.
