AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LINCOLN IL
922 PM CDT THU APR 13 2006

.UPDATE...
QUICK UPDATE TO THE ZFP TO INCREASE POP TRENDS FOR THIS EVENING AS
CLUSTER OF STORMS OVER IOWA HAS FORMED AS EXPECTED... AND SHOULD
EVENTUALLY MERGE INTO AN MCS AS IT RACES ESE ACROSS THE NORTHERN
TIER OF THE CWA OVERNIGHT.  KEPT THE SMALL CHANCES GOING FARTHER
SOUTH IN CASE SOME CELLS TEND TO BACKBUILD SOUTHWARD... ESPECIALLY
LATER TONIGHT AS LLJ BECOMES MORE ACTIVE.

THE ONLY LIMITING FACTOR APPEARS TO BE THE CONTINUED DRY LOW LEVEL
AIR... THOUGH THIS MAY IMPROVE SOMEWHAT AS MOISTURE CONTINUES TO
ADVECT INTO THE AREA.  LOW LEVEL DRY AIR MAY ACTUALLY ENHANCE
DOWNDRAFT POTENTIAL ACROSS THE NORTH EARLY ON AS STORMS MOVE INTO
THE REGION.

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION /ISSUED 242 PM CDT/ ...
MAIN CONCERNS ARE SEVERE POTENTIAL OVER THE NEXT 3 DAYS. SPC HAS
US IN SLIGHT RISK FOR ALL THREE. 12Z GFS SPED THINGS UP IN THE
SHORT TERM VS THE 06Z RUN. NAM A LITTLE TOO FAR N THAN THE
CONSENSUS OF OTHER MODELS. 06Z GFS WAS IN CLOSER AGREEMENT TO THE 12Z
CANADIAN GLOBAL...AND NAVY NOGAPS. LEANED TWRD CANADIAN...WITH 06Z
GFS DETAILS.

SHORT TERM...TONIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT.
THE SURFACE RIDGE TO OUR SE IS CONTINUING TO MOVE AWAY IN FAVOR OF
THE NEXT SURFACE LOW NOW DEVELOPING IN THE UPPER PLAINS. MOISTURE
RETURN HAS BEGUN IN THE LOWER LEVELS ACROSS MO AND IA. LLJ IN THAT
AREA HAS INCREASED TO 35 KTS...AND IS EXPECTED TO REACH 45 KTS
THIS EVENING. THE TRIGGER FOR CONVECTION SEEMS TO BE TIED TO AN
ELEVATED THERMAL TROUGH SWEEPING ACROSS N IL. STEEP MID LEVEL
LAPSE RATES AND DIRECTIONAL SHEAR WILL AID IN SUPERCELL
DEVELOPMENT. SINCE WE THE STORMS OVER OUR AREA MAY BE ELEVATED DUE
TO LOWER DEWPOINTS AT THE ONSET...THE SEVERE THREAT SEEMS MAINLY
TIED TO LARGE HAIL TONIGHT. ONCE THE MAIN STORM COMPLEX DEVELOPS
OVER N IA...IT SHOULD PROGRESS E-SE ALONG THE THICKNESS
LINES...AND CLIP OUR N CWA...ESPECIALLY ALONG THE N OF THE I-74
CORRIDOR. I DID EXTEND THE CHC POPS A LITTLE FARTHER SOUTH FOR
THIS EVENING...BUT THERE WILL LIKELY BE A SHARP CUTOFF TO THE
RAIN/NO RAIN LINE.

ON FRIDAY...THE TRAILING FRONTAL BOUNDARY BEHIND THE LOW PRESSURE
SYSTEM WILL LINGER ACROSS N IL. THIS WILL SET THE STAGE FOR
DESTABILIZATION AND A BETTER CHANCE OF SURFACE BASED STORMS LATE
FRIDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING. RIGHT NOW...THE H5 SHORTWAVE IS NOT
LOOKING TOO IMPRESSIVE FOR THE FRI EVENING EVENT...BUT CONDITIONS
ARE FAVORABLE ENOUGH FOR CONV DEVELOPMENT IN OUR NECK OF THE
WOODS WITH AN OUTFLOW BOUNDARY LIKELY TO SET UP IN OUR AREA FROM
TONIGHTS STORMS.

SATURDAY WILL SEE THE LONG WAVE H5 TROUGH LIFTING NORTHEAST ACROSS
THE UPPER PLAINS...BRINGING A SURFACE WARM FRONT WITH IT. THE MOST
ACTIVE PART OF THE SYSTEM APPEARS TO MOVE INTO C ILLINOIS DURING
SATURDAY EVENING...AFTER THE WARM FRONT LIFTS JUST N OF OUR CWA. A
50 KT LLJ WILL AID IN MOISTURE TRANSPORT. SHEAR PARAMS INDICATE
MORE LINEAR CONVECTION AND SQUALL LINE DEVELOPMENT...WITH EMBEDDED
SUPERCELLS AT THIS POINT.

LONG TERM...SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY.
WITH THE LONG WAVE TROUGH AXIS STILL OVERHEAD ON SUNDAY...I KEPT
THE 30 POPS ALL DAY AND SLIGHT CHANCE POPS FOR SUNDAY NIGHT.
MONDAY SHOULD PROVIDE A BREAK IN THE ACTION...UNTIL A POTENT COLD
FRONT SWEEPS FROM THE N PLAINS ACROSS ILLINOIS ON TUESDAY
AFTERNOON AND EVENING. A DRY SLOT SHOULD CUT OFF MOST PRECIP FOR
WEDNESDAY...BUT THE WRAP AROUND MOISTURE AND COLD POOL SHOULD
PROVIDE STEEP ENOUGH LAPSE RATES FOR SHOWERS ON WED NIGHT AND
THURSDAY.

.ILX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
NONE.
