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 Jun 15, 2:34 PM CDT, 55 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jun 15, 2:34 PM CDT, 55 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LINCOLN IL
234 PM CDT SUN JUN 15 2008

.DISCUSSION...
ISSUED 234 PM CDT SUN JUN 15 2008

LATEST SURFACE ANALYSIS SHOWED A COMPLEX WEATHER PATTERN ACROSS
THE FORECAST AREA AND POINTS UPSTREAM. A COLD FRONT EXTENDED FROM
LAKE SUPERIOR INTO THE CENTRAL PLAINS. MEANWHILE...AN OUTFLOW
BOUNDARY FROM OVERNIGHT CONVECTION EXTENDED FROM SOUTHERN LAKE
MICHIGAN...THROUGH SOUTHERN ILLINOIS...INTO SOUTHEAST IOWA. CLOSER
TO HOME...ANOTHER OUTFLOW WAS JUST NORTH OF A LINE FROM QUINCY TO
CHAMPAIGN. THE ONGOING AND YET TO DEVELOP CONVECTION ALONG THESE
BOUNDARIES THROUGH TONIGHT IS THE PRIMARY FORECAST CONCERN OVER
THE NEXT FEW DAYS. ONCE THE ABOVE MENTIONED COLD FRONT PASSES
THROUGH TONIGHT...QUIETER AND COOLER WEATHER IS EXPECTED FOR MUCH
OF THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS.

NOT SURPRISINGLY...THE MODELS ARE STRUGGLING WITH THE ONGOING
CONVECTION AND WILL NOT BE OF SIGNIFICANT USE TONIGHT. OTHERWISE...
12Z MODELS IN REASONABLE AGREEMENT WITH RESPECT TO FEATURES EXPECTED
TO IMPACT REGION OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS. GUIDANCE TEMPERATURES
GENERALLY CLOSE/REASONABLE...SO WILL NOT STRAY TOO FAR.

SHORT TERM...TONIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY...

TONIGHT...EXPECT STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS TO TRACK EAST
SOUTHEAST ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA INTO EARLY EVENING...ASSOCIATED
WITH CURRENT STRONG COMPLEX. THESE STORMS WILL BE MOVING INTO AN
AREA WITH STEEP LAPSE RATES AND WITH FAIRLY STRONG UNIDIRECTIONAL
WIND SHEAR PROFILES. THE PREDOMINANT THREATS WITH THESE STORMS
WILL BE DAMAGING STRAIGHT LINE WINDS AND LARGE HAIL. ADDITIONAL
SHOWER/STORM DEVELOPMENT IS POSSIBLE UNTIL THE COLD FRONT PASSES
THROUGH THE REGION LATER TONIGHT...BUT THE EXTENT AND POTENTIAL
SEVERITY OF THIS DEVELOPMENT WILL BE DETERMINED BY HOW MUCH
STABILIZATION OCCURS DUE TO THE ONGOING STORMS.

MONDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY...BULK OF THE PRECIPITATION SHOULD BE
SOUTH AND EAST OF THE FORECAST AREA BY EARLY MONDAY AS SURFACE
FRONT PUSHES SOUTH OF THE REGION. THEN...FAIRLY DEEP UPPER
TROFFING OVER THE UPPER GREAT LAKES WILL SLOWLY SHIFT EAST AND
ALLOW THE UPPER FLOW OVER THE FORECAST AREA TO BECOME NEUTRAL.
HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD ACROSS THE REGION AT THE SURFACE AS A
RESULT. THESE FEATURES WILL PROVIDE US WITH QUIET AND COOLER
CONDITIONS.

LONG TERM...WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY...MODEL/ENSEMBLE
AGREEMENT REMAINS PRETTY GOOD THROUGH THE PERIOD. TROFFING OVER
EASTERN NORTH AMERICA AND RIDGING OVER THE PLAINS WILL SLOWLY
SHIFT EAST WITH TIME...ALLOWING A GRADUAL MODERATION IN
TEMPERATURES HEADING INTO THE WEEKEND. WE WILL ALSO BE AT GREATER
RISK OF IMPULSES RIDING THE TOP OF THE RIDGE AND BRINGING US
PRECIPITATION CHANCE HEADING INTO THE END OF THE WEEK. THE DETAILS
ON THE PRECIPITATION RISK IS STILL TRICKY...SO WILL NOT GO ABOVE A
SLIGHT CHANCE MENTION AT THIS TIME FRIDAY INTO SUNDAY.
