.UPDATE...
ISSUED AT 938 PM CDT FRI MAY 3 2013
THE STEADY CYCLONIC CONVEYOR BELT OF RAIN HAS BEEN SLOWLY SHIFTING
TO THE NORTHEAST THIS EVENING AS THE UPPER LOW SHIFTS SLOWLY
EASTWARD ACROSS NW ARKANSAS AND THE SHORT WAVE PIVOTS THRU THE
BASE TOWARDS THE TN VALLEY. THE HIGHEST RAINFALL RATES ARE NOW IN WEST
CENTRAL ILLINOIS WHERE EMBEDDED ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS HAVE ALSO
BEEN OBSERVED. DESPITE A GOOD AREAL AVERAGE OF 2.5 TO 3.5 INCHES
OF RAIN ACROSS EASTERN MO AND WESTERN ILLINOIS WITHIN THE LAST 30
HOURS...FLOODING PROBLEMS ARE FEW AND HAVE BEEN RELATIVELY MINOR
THUS FAR...OWING TO THE LONG DURATION AND RELATIVELY LOW OVERALL
INTENSITY. THE MAIN THRUST OF RAIN SHOULD BE FOCUSED OVER ILLINOIS
AND EXTREME NE MO FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE NIGHT...AND CURRENT
INDICATIONS ARE THE FLOOD WATCH WILL BE ALLOWED TO EXPIRE AT 06Z.
THE MODELS STILL DONT HAVE A GOOD HANDLE ON THE SURFACE LOW

GENERALLY BEEN IN THE 1-2+ INCH RANGE SO FAR. SEEMS REASONABLE THAT
UP TO ANOTHER INCH OF RAIN WILL BE POSSIBLE THROUGH MIDNIGHT
TONIGHT. GAGES ON SMALL STREAMS AROUND THE AREA ARE RISING...AND A
FEW MAY REACH BANKFULL LATER THIS AFTERNOON/EVENING. BAND OF LIGHT/
MODERATE RAIN HAS MOVED VERY LITTLE TODAY AND EXTENDS UPSTREAM INTO
NORTHERN MISSISSIPPI. ONLY THE FAR EASTERN AND FAR WESTERN CWA ARE

BAND OF STRONG 925-850MB MOISTURE CONVERGENCE SEEN ON THE RAP/LOCAL
WRF. THIS FORCING WILL GRADUALLY WEAKEN TONIGHT AND PIVOT
NORTHEASTWARD AS THE UPPER LOW DROPS INTO ARKANSAS. SO EXPECT THE
RAIN TO END OR TAPER OFF TO DRIZZLE OVER CENTRAL AND SOUTHEAST
MISSOURI AS DRY SLOT WRAPS AROUND THE UPPER LOW.
WENT WITH THE COOLER SIDE OF MOS GUIDANCE TONIGHT GIVEN THAT THE
GOING TEMPERATURES ARE ALREADY SO COLD FOR EARLY MAY.
