The problem with answering a question like this is that accents get in the way of interpreting how people make written representations of the sounds they use.

But I would pronounce this aw-REEL-ee-uh, with the first syllable rhyming with words like raw or law. I do NOT have the ah/aw merger in my speech so for me "ah" and "aw" are two different sounds.
