omaha overnight precip

The overnight MCS which is currently dissipating across northern MO brought several inches of rain to portions of south central NE overnight, as noted in MRMS 24hour precip analysis.


What was rather interesting was the 20z visible imagery, which depicted a little more agitation in the cu field in south central NE, then a noted linear break just to the north of this field, followed by a less agitated and dissipating CU field to the north. This is also shown in the day cloud phase RGB, which depicts an increase in yellow to the south of this line.




It would seem this area to the south may be where boundary layer moisture from overnight heavy rainfall is burning off with daytime heating. Just an observation. Waiting for NUCAPS data to arrive, so we can take a look at the vertical profile of the atmosphere in this area.
