.DISCUSSION...
ISSUED 936 PM CDT THU JUN 21 2007

UPDATED THE FORECAST TWICE THIS EVENING TO INCLUDE SEVERE THUNDERSTORM
WATCH FOR CENTRAL AND SE IL UNTIL 4 AM (EXCEPT UNTIL MIDNIGHT FOR
KNOX COUNTY). INCREASED POPS TO CATEGORICAL NORTH OF LINCOLN AND
LIKELY POPS FROM LINCOLN SOUTH TONIGHT. ALONG WITH SEVERE WX
THREAT FOR DAMAGING WIND GUSTS AND LARGE HAIL...ALSO HAVE THREAT FOR
HEAVY RAINS AND FREQUENT LIGHTNING.

MCS OVER NW IL...SW WI AND FAR EASTERN IA IS TRACKING ESE TOWARD
CENTRAL IL AND APPEARS ON SCHEDULE. LEADING EDGE OF LINE OF STRONG
TO SEVERE CONVECTION NW OF THE IL RIVER AND ISOLATED CELLS EAST OF
I-55 IN DEWITT AND CUMBERLAND COUNTIES. SPC SAID STRONG
INSTABILITY TO KEEP MCS GOING AS IT TRACKS ESE THROUGH CENTRAL IL
TONIGHT PRODUCING RISK OF SEVERE WX ALONG WITH HEAVY RAINS IN
EXCESS OF 1 INCH AND FREQUENT LIGHTNING. AREAS SW OF SPRINGFIELD
TO LAWRENCEVILLE LINE TO HAVE MORE WIDELY SCATTERED CONVECTION TONIGHT.

02Z/9 PM SURFACE MAP SHOWS A FRONTAL BOUNDARY FROM CENTRAL SD
THROUGH NE PARTS OF IA/IL AND CENTRAL INDIANA NEARING I-74.

.AVIATION...
ISSUED 654 PM CDT THU JUN 21 2007

MORE COMPLEX WEATHER SCENARIO EXPECTED OVER REGION FOR 00Z TAF
PERIOD THAN HAS BEEN SEEN IN RECENT DAYS. NEARLY STATIONARY
SURFACE BOUNDARY IS LYING OUT ALONG THE INTERSTATE 74 CORRIDOR...
WHICH IS IN THE VICINITY OF THE PIA/BMI/CMI TERMINALS. WINDS WILL
BE RATHER VARIABLE IN THE AROUND THIS BOUNDARY...WITH SOUTHWEST
WINDS TO ITS SOUTH AND EAST WINDS TO THE NORTH. AT THIS POINT...DO
NOT EXPECT SIGNIFICANT FORESEEABLE SHIFTS IN THIS BOUNDARY AS ITS
ULTIMATE POSITION WILL BE HEAVILY IMPACTED BY THUNDERSTORM
OUTFLOWS.

LARGE COMPLEX OF STORMS OVER IOWA WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE SOUTHEAST
TOWARD THE CENTRAL ILLINOIS TERMINALS THIS EVENING... AND SHOULD
BEGIN IMPACT THEM DURING THE LATE EVENING INTO THE OVERNIGHT
HOURS. THE SOUTHERN EXTENT OF THE STORM COVERAGE IS IN DOUBT...SO
HAVE LIMITED TEMPO THUNDER MENTION TO THE PIA/BMI/CMI TERMINALS.
ONCE THE COMPLEX MOVES THROUGH TONIGHT... ADDITIONAL DEVELOPMENT
REMAINS POSSIBLE ALONG MAIN SURFACE BOUNDARY/NUMEROUS OUTFLOW
BOUNDARIES...BUT CONFIDENCE IN LOCATION/TIMING IS TOO LOW TO GO
ABOVE VICINITY MENTION IN TAFS. NEXT BEST MORE WIDESPREAD CHANCE
FOR STORMS WILL ARRIVE FRIDAY NIGHT AFTER VALID TIME OF 00Z TAFS.

.PREV DISCUSSION...
ISSUED 1248 PM CDT THU JUN 21 2007
MODELS CONTINUE TO SHOW DIFFERENCES. HOWEVER...WITH CURRENT
ONGOING CONVECTION AND MODELS NOT HANDLING MESOSCALE DETAILS
WELL...WILL KEEP FCST PAST 24HRS ABOUT WHERE IT IS AND THEN MAKE
ADJUSTMENTS IN THE FIRST 24HRS TO ACCOUNT FOR WHAT IS GOING ON
NOW.

MAIN CONCERNS CONTINUE TO BE TWO DIFFERENT PERIODS OF MCSS
EXPECTED OVER THE NEXT 48-60HRS.

SHORT TERM...TONIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT
MCS FROM SOUTHERN WI EARLY THIS MORNING SPREAD LOTS OF CLOUDS OVER
THE NORTHERN PART OF THE CWA THIS MORNING...RETARDING THE WARM UP.
IT ALSO HAS KEPT DEWPOINTS ON THE DRIER SIDE THIS AFTERNOON AS
WELL...EXCEPT FOR A LINE OF MID 60 DEWPOINTS FROM WRN IL TO
BMI/PNT. CURRENT SATELLITE LOOPS SHOWS A COUPLE OF NICE OUTFLOW
BOUNDARIES EXTENDING FROM NRN IA INTO WEST CENTRAL IL...AND TOWARD
SHELBYVILLE THIS AFTERNOON. MCS CONVECTION MOVING INTO NWRN
IOWA...WILL LIKELY CONTINUE TO MOVE SE ACRS IA THIS AFTERNOON AND
THEN EVENTUALLY SSE INTO WEST CENTRAL IL ALONG THE VISIBLE
BOUNDARY. ROUGH TIMING OF THIS FEATURE SHOWS IT ARRIVING INTO IL
SOMETIME AFTER 6PM. MODELS ALSO INDICATE ADDITIONAL CONVECTION
DEVELOPING NORTH OF THIS SYSTEM IN NORTHERN IL AROUND MIDNIGHT.
THIS FEATURE WILL ALSO MOVE SOUTHEAST INTO THE AREA...MAINLY ALONG
I-74. WITH PCPN WATER VALUES CLOSE TO 2 INCHES...ANY STORMS WILL
BE VERY EFFICIENT...SO HEAVY RAIN WILL BE POSSIBLE WITH ALL THESE
STORMS TONIGHT.

LEFT OVER BOUNDARIES AND THE RESPECTIVE SFC BOUNDARY WILL BE IN
THE GENERAL AREA TOMORROW AND THIS WILL BE A FOCUS FOR ADDITIONAL
THUNDERSTORMS DURING THE DAY...THOUGH POSSIBLY NOT VERY ORGANIZED.
CLOUD COVER SHOULD BREAK UP ENOUGH TO ALLOW A REHEATING AND
RECOVERY OF THE ATMOSPHERE TOMORROW AFTERNOON...THEREBY ALLOWING
SUFFICIENT INSTABILITY TO DEVELOP FOR MORE THUNDERSTORMS TOMORROW
AFTN AND INTO TOMORROW NIGHT. ALSO...THE MAIN SHORT WAVE WILL BE
COMING DOWN THROUGH THE AREA TO PROVIDE ADDITIONAL DYNAMICS FOR
T-STORM DEVELOPMENT THROUGH THE NIGHT. PCPN WATER VALUES WILL
AGAIN BE NEAR 2 INCHES...WHICH MEANS HEAVY RAIN AGAIN POSSIBLE.
SOME OF THESE STORMS FRI NIGHT MAY TRAVERSE OVER THE SAME REGION
THAT THE STORMS TONIGHT MOVE OVER...SO SOME LOCALIZED FLOODING IS
POSSIBLE. WILL NOT MENTION OR ISSUE A FLOOD WATCH AT THIS TIME
FOR TWO REASONS...1) WOULD LIKE TO WAIT AND SEE AMOUNT OF PCPN WE
RECEIVE OVERNIGHT AND 2) AREA IS ABNORMALLY DRY WITH LOTS OF AREAS
WELL BELOW NORMAL FOR PCPN SINCE MAR 1.

MESOSCALE PATTERN WILL BE VERY MESSY NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS AND THIS
WILL BE NO DIFFERENT ON SATURDAY AFTER TWO ROUNDS OF MCSS.
HOWEVER...ANY FRONTS OR BOUNDARIES MAY STILL BE AROUND THE AREA
SATURDAY SO WILL NEED TO KEEP A CHC POPS IN THE AREA FOR SAT AND
INTO SAT NIGHT. SUNDAY...ANY FRONTAL SYSTEMS SHOULD BE WELL SOUTH
OF THE AREA SO WILL KEEP THIS DAY DRY FOR NOW.

DAYTIME TEMPS THROUGH THE PERIOD WILL DEPEND LARGELY ON AMOUNT OF
CLOUD COVER AND PCPN THROUGHOUT THE REGION. GUIDANCE SEEMS TO TAKE
THIS INTO ACCOUNT WILL COOLER TEMPS FOR THE NEXT TWO DAYS...THEN
WARMING IT BACK UP ON SUNDAY...AFTER THE SYSTEM MOVES SOUTH.

LONG TERM...MONDAY THROUGH THURSDAY
EXTENDED MODELS BEGINNING TO ADVERTISE REX BLOCK ACROSS THE MIDDLE
PART OF THE US. THE ASSOCIATED LOW PRSS AREA SPINS SEVERAL SHORT
WAVES UP INTO THE MID MISS VLY/MO AREA THROUGH THE PERIOD. THIS
WOULD BRING DIURNAL CHANCES OF PCPN INTO ILX CWA LATER IN THE
WEEK...AS THE WAVES GET CLOSER TO THE AREA. THEREFORE WILL BE
INCLUDING SOME SMALL CHANCES OF PCPN FOR DAYS 6-7...WED AND THUR.

EARLY IN THE PERIOD...TEMPS WILL BE QUITE WARM...IN THE LOWER 90S.
HOWEVER...CLOUD COVER DUE TO PCPN CHANCES LATER IN THE WEEK COULD
KEEP TEMPS DOWN A BIT. THIS FOLLOWS WELL WITH CURRENT EXTENDED GUIDANCE.
