.DISCUSSION...
Scattered to widespread light/moderate rainfall continues to 
traverse the region this afternoon. Pops were updated to reflect 
latest obs/camguide trends which favor northward lifting of the 
H85 front which is currently oriented norther of I40/I81. Thus 
pops are slowly allowed to lower through the afternoon for these 
areas, while holding/increasing across the southern Valley/Plateau
through the afternoon as the surface warm front approaches from
the south. Otherwise, t/td and winds look to remain in line with 
previous fcst. Therefore, no other sig changes for this late 
morning update.
