AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LINCOLN IL
300 PM CDT SAT JUN 17 2006

.DISCUSSION...
MODELS AGAIN VERY SIMILAR IN THE SHORT TERM AND ALL SHORT TERM
MODELS CONTINUE TO ADVERTISE A COUPLE OF PERIODS OF THUNDERSTORMS.
FIRST PERIOD IS COMING THROUGH TONIGHT WHILE THE SECOND ONE WILL
COME THROUGH TOMORROW. HOWEVER..MODELS SO STRUGGLE WITH SOME
CONVECTIVE FEEDBACK...BUT FOR THE MOST PART THEY LOOK FINE. SO IN
THE SHORT TERM A BLEND IS BEST. IN THE LONG TERM...A GFS/ECMWF
CONTINUES TO LOOK BEST...AT LEAST FOR THE DAYS 3-4. FURTHER
OUT...PREFERENCES IS STILL WITH THE ECMWF.

SHORT TERM...TONIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY...
FIRST MID LEVEL WAVE IS MOVING INTO THE AREA NOW AND SCATTERED
THUNDERSTORMS HAVE DEVELOPED THIS AFTERNOON IN ASSOCIATION WITH IT.
STRONG LOW LVL WINDS OF UP TO 40 KTS HAVE AIDED IN ADVECTING AMPLE
MOISTURE AND TEMP INTO THE AREA AS WELL. THIS CONVECTION WILL
CONTINUE INTO THIS EVENING AND TONIGHT AS RADAR LOOPS SHOW LOTS OF
THUNDERSTORMS THROUGHOUT THE MID MISS VLY...SOUTH OF STL. THOUGH THE
EXACT SFC FEATURES FOR TOMORROW ARE UNKNOWN...BELIEVE THUNDERSTORMS
WILL AGAIN BE LIKELY TOMORROW AS ANOTHER WAVE MOVES INTO THE AREA.
THOUGH THE SFCS FRONT WILL NOT MOVE INTO THE AREA UNTIL MONDAY...THE
ACTIVE FRONT...WHICH WILL MOVE THROUGH THE AREA ON SUNDAY WILL PUSH
THROUGH BY SUNDAY EVENING...DIMINISHING CHANCES OF PCPN FOR SUNDAY
NIGHT AND MONDAY. SO WILL KEEP A 30 POP IN FORECAST FOR SUNDAY NIGHT
AS THE FRONT WILL BE APPROACHING THE AREA BY THEN...THEN A SLIGHT
CHANCE FOR MONDAY AND MONDAY NIGHT. BY TUE THE ACTIVE FRONT WILL BE
EAST OF THE AREA AND THE ATMOSPHERE COULD BE SOMEWHAT CAPPED OVER
THE AREA...SO BELIEVE A DRY FORECAST IS IN ORDER FOR TUE AND TUE
NIGHT.

TEMPS WILL REMAIN WARM FOR THE PERIOD AS STRONG LOW LVL WINDS WILL
CONTINUE FOR THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS. TEMPS SHOULD BE COOLER TOM WITH
THE RAIN BUT WARM BACK UP DUE TO THE FRONT NOT REALLY GETTING
THROUGH HERE UNTIL LATER. SO FOR MON AND TUE HAVE GONE A COUPLE OF
DEGREES ABOVE GUIDANCE.

LONG TERM...WEDNESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY...
DRY CONDITIONS WILL PREVAIL FOR AT LEAST ONE DAY...WED...HOWEVER THE
FRONT WILL BECOME ACTIVE AGAIN STARTING WED NIGHT. SO HAVE ADDED
SOME ADDITIONAL CHANCES OF PCPN FOR MID WEEK AND TOWARD THE END OF
THE WEEK.

TEMPS WILL REMAIN ABOVE NORMAL FOR MOST OF THE WEEK SO HAVE GONE A
COUPLE OF DEGS ABOVE GUIDANCE.
