NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE QUAD CITIES IA IL
1055 AM CST SUN FEB 2 2003

HAVE DECIDED TO EXPAND DENSE FOG ADVISORY THROUGH THE REST OF 
TODAY.  LATEST SURFACE ANALYSIS INDICATING THAT THE CWA IS JUST 
NORTH OF THE SURFACE FRONT...WITH LIGHT NORTHEAST FLOW.  A WEAK 
RIDGE IS ALSO CAUSING PRESSURE RISES OVER THE ENTIRE CWA.  THESE ARE 
NOT CONDITIONS THAT ARE CONDUCIVE TO DISSIPATING FOG...SO HAVE 
EXTENDED IT THROUGH THIS AFTERNOON...AND EXPANDED IT INTO JEFFERSON 
COUNTY...ON ACCOUNT OF KFFL BEING DOWN IN M1/4 FOR THE LAST 4 
HOURS.  FEEL THAT BY LATE AFTERNOON THE SURFACE FEATURES WILL HAVE 
MOVED ENOUGH FOR THERE TO BE PRESSURE FALLS ACROSS THE ENTIRE CWA 
FINALLY...AND SLIGHTLY INCREASED WINDS...WHICH WILL HELP TO 
DISSIPATE FOG.  

IN UPCOMING ZONE UPDATE WILL ALSO BE TAKING TIME TO ADJUST TEMPS A 
LITTLE.  ZONE UPDATE TO BE OUT SHORTLY.
