CATEGORY. WILL NEED TO KEEP ON EYE ON THE RADAR FOR THE NEXT FEW
HOURS. AREA OF PCPN SHOULD BEGIN TO DIE AFTER SUNSET WITHOUT THE
ADDED LIFT PROVIDED BY THE SUN. AREA OF PCPN WILL ALSO MOVE TO THE

EASTERN KY ON THE EASTERN PERIPHERY OF THE UPPER HIGH WE WILL BE
SUSCEPTIBLE TO THE AFFECTS ANY SHORT WAVES MOVING SOUTHEAST ACROSS
THE GREAT LAKES AND INTO THE MEAN TROUGH OFF THE EAST COAST. THERE
