What was reported inside it

Time	Report	Where	Remark

Local storm reports filed while the alert was in force, from inside its polygon or its counties.

Did it verify

Not verified. The Iowa Environmental Mesonet's Cow found no qualifying storm report inside this severe thunderstorm warning while it was in force. That is not proof nothing happened: reports are thin where few people live.

Cow counts a report within 15 km of the polygon while the warning was in force: a tornado for a tornado warning; hail of 1 inch or more, a gust of 58 mph or more or wind damage for a severe thunderstorm warning; a flash flood report for a flash flood warning.

What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this severe thunderstorm warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS Lincoln, IL wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Apr 14, 5:20 AM CDT, 4 hours 59 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Apr 14, 5:20 AM CDT, 4 hours 59 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LINCOLN IL
520 AM CDT FRI APR 14 2006

.DISCUSSION...
THUNDERSTORM CHANCES WILL CONTINUE AGAIN THIS AFTERNOON AND THIS
EVENING AS ANOTHER WEAK DISTURBANCE INTERACTS WITH VARIOUS
BOUNDARIES IN THE AREA LEFT OVER FROM THIS MORNINGS MCS.  ANOTHER
ROUNDS LOOKS LIKELY SATURDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING AS A STRONG UPPER
DISTURBANCE EJECTS FROM THE DESERT SOUTHWEST.

SHORT TERM...TODAY THROUGH SUNDAY.
BUSY NIGHT... DUE TO TIME CONSTRAINTS WITH SVR WX... FOCUSED ONLY ON
THE SHORT TERM THIS SHIFT.  APOLOGIES FOR RUNNING A LITTLE BEHIND
THE NORMAL SCHEDULE.

REGIONAL RADARS EARLY THIS MORNING ARE FASCINATING... SHOWING
BOUNDARIES ABOUND ACROSS THE MIDWEST IN THE WAKE OF THE DEPARTING
MCS.  UPPER SHORTWAVE IS EVIDENT ON WATER VAPOR ENTERING SOUTH
DAKOTA.  OUT AHEAD OF THIS UPPER SYSTEM... SFC CYCLOGENESIS IS
TAKING PLACE ALONG THE KS/NE BORDER THIS MORNING.  THIS HAS RESULTED
IN DEEPENING SOUTHERLY FLOW ADVECTING WARMER/MOISTER AIR ACROSS MO
AND INTO IOWA.

CHECK OUT THE THE DMX AND DVN RADARS... BOTH CLEARLY SHOW WHAT SEEMS
TO BE THE LARGER-SCALE QUASI-STATIONARY FRONT ASSOCIATED WITH THE
DEVELOPING PLAINS LOW.  THE LATEST RUC SHOWS THIS FRONT SHOULD STALL
OUT ACROSS NORTHERN ILLINOIS LATER THIS MORNING... THEN SLOWLY DRIFT
SOUTHEASTWARD THIS AFTERNOON ALONG WITH THE SFC LOW.  MEANWHILE... A
NUMBER OF LEFTOVER BOUNDARIES NOT SO EASILY DETECTED WILL LIKELY
REMAIN ACROSS CENTRAL ILLINOIS.  OUT AHEAD OF THIS FRONT... LOW
LEVEL SOUTHWEST FLOW WILL CONTINUE TO ADVECT WARM/MOIST AIR INTO THE
REGION.

MODELS... ESPECIALLY THE ETA... ARE AGAIN A LITTLE TOO EXCITED WITH
SFC DEWPOINTS FOR THIS AFTERNOON... AS OBSERVED 00Z SOUNDINGS
UPSTREAM AS WELL AS FORECAST SOUNDINGS INDICATE RELATIVELY DRY AIR
IN THE BOUNDARY LAYER WILL LIKELY MIX OUT SFC DEWPOINTS... BUT UPPER
50S TO LOWER 60S SEEM REASONABLE.  MODIFYING ETA SOUNDINGS INDICATE
CAPE OF 1500-2000 J/KG WILL DEVELOP ACROSS THE AREA BY AFTERNOON.

SHEAR VALUES APPEAR TO BE A LITTLE LESS IMPRESSIVE FOR THIS
AFTERNOON... BUT 0-6KM SHEAR IS SUFFICIENT FOR POSSIBLE SUPERCELLS.
MORE OR LESS UNIDIRECTIONAL PROFILE WOULD SUGGEST EVENTUAL EVOLUTION
INTO LINES AND SEGMENTS.  AT THIS TIME... LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING
WINDS APPEAR TO BE THE PRIMARY THREATS... AS DRIER LOW LEVEL AIR MAY
ENHANCE DOWNDRAFTS.

MORE SIGNIFICANT SYSTEM GETS ORGANIZED OVER THE PLAINS SATURDAY
MORNING AS STRONG SHORTWAVE EJECTS FROM THE DESERT SOUTHWEST.
BOUNDARY WILL LIKELY HAVE SHIFTED SOUTH OF US BY THEN... ALTHOUGH
THIS WILL BE HIGHLY DEPENDANT ON THIS AFTERNOONS CONVECTION.
THUNDERSTORMS SHOULD BREAK OUT ALONG AND NORTH OF THIS BOUNDARY
SATURDAY AFTERNOON... THEN INCREASE IN COVERAGE AS THE LLJ ENHANCES
OVERNIGHT AS THE SFC AND UPPER LOW BOTH APPROACH FROM THE WEST.

SFC LOW SHOULD MOVE RIGHT ALONG THE BOUNDARY SUNDAY... AND MODEL
DISCREPANCIES HAVE ARISEN HERE AS WELL.  LOW TRACK WILL BE LINKED TO
WHERE THE BOUNDARY SETS UP... WHICH OF COURSE WILL BE DECIDED BY
MESOSCALE FACTORS.  EITHER WAY... SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL
CONTINUE ON SUNDAY.  SEVERE THREAT WILL LIKELY DEPEND ON HOW MUCH
INSTABILITY REMAINS IN PLACE AFTER ANOTHER ROUND OF OVERNIGHT
CONVECTION.  POSITION OF THE WARM FRONT AND SFC LOW TRACK DOES MAKE
ONE A BIT LEERY.

LONG TERM...MONDAY THROUGH THURSDAY.
NO CHANGES MADE TO THE LONG TERM.

.CLIMATE...
WITH HIGHS EXPECTED IN THE MIDDLE AND UPPER 80S THIS AFTERNOON...
LOOKS LIKE A FEW RECORDS MAY BE IN DANGER.  HERE ARE A FEW CURRENT
STANDING RECORDS WHICH MAY IN JEOPARDY...

STATION             RECORD HIGH     YEAR SET
