Broad surface convergence associated with a strong trade-wind trough continued to bring numerous heavy showers and isolated thunderstorms across western Yap State through the morning hours. Available observations indicate nearly one additional inch of rainfall fell from 18Z to 21Z at Yap Proper, with decreased rainfall this afternoon amounting to only four hundredths of an inch from 00Z to 06Z. Satellite observations show abundant, but gradually diminishing mid- and upper-level cloud cover blanketing western Yap State this afternoon with lowering cloud tops as the atmosphere stabilizes. Showers in the area may see a slight bump late overnight, but the trade-wind trough is shifting further west of Yap and lingering cloud cover will help to limit nocturnal instability effects, and associated showers overnight. This is the last scheduled update for this Special Weather Statement. Residents of western Yap State should monitor local forecasts and heed any watches, warnings or advisories issued by your local National Weather Service office.
