.AVIATION...
FOR THE 12Z TAFS...PRECIPITATION TRENDS ARE ONCE AGAIN THE HARDEST
PART OF THE FCST. MAIN AXIS OF RAIN AND EMBEDDED TSRA HAS SHIFTED
NWD AND EXTENDS FROM WCNTRL IL ACRS NRN MO INTO NE KS. THIS AREA
IS ALONG THE NRN PERIPHERY OF THE WLY LLJ AND SHOULD HAVE THE
LONGEST DURATION OF PCPN THIS MORNING. OTHER TWO AREAS OF PCPN ARE
A RECENT FLAIR-UP OF SHRA FROM LAKE OF THE OZARKS INTO CNTRL MO
AND THE EWD MOVING COMPLEX OF SHRA/TSRA FM STL AREA SOUTH TO NEAR
KFAM. BELIEVE THE SHRA IN CNTRL MO WL WKN IN A COUPLE OF HRS WHILE
THE COMPLEX NEAR STL PUSHES EAST. FRONT HAS PUSHED DOWN TO I-70
WITH SOME STRATUS DVLPG TO ITS NORTH. ANOTHER ROUND OF SHRA AND
TSRA SHOULD GET UNDERWAY BY EARLY EVENING OVR WRN MO AS THE LLJ
RAMPS UP AND BACKS TO MORE SLY. THIS ACTIVITY SHOULD SPREAD NEWD
AND EWD AS THE NIGHT PROGRESSES IN ADVANCE OF THE SFC LOW MOVING
