AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LINCOLN IL
858 PM CDT FRI MAY 8 2009

.DISCUSSION...
ISSUED 857 PM CDT FRI MAY 8 2009

BROKEN LINE OF STORMS MOVING ACROSS OUR NW CWA EARLY THIS EVENING
AS A STRONG H5 VORT MAX CONTINUES TO MOVE E ACROSS N IL. SURFACE
BASED STORMS HAVE A GOOD CHANCE OF PRODUCING WIND DAMAGE...WITH
SURFACE DEWPOINTS NEAR 60 DEGREES.

WILL KEEP THE LIKELY POPS IN THE N...WITH CHC POPS DOWN TO LINCOLN
AND SLIGHT CHC DOWN TO SPI. THE STORMS ON THE S END OF THE LINE
HAVE BEEN WEAKENING/DISSIPATING AS THEY HV ENTERED OUR CWA. BEST
DPVA/WIND SHEAR AND INSTABILITY REMAIN IN THE FAR N CWA.

TIMING THE LINE OF STORMS EASTWARD PUTS IT EAST OF OUR CWA BY
06Z. WILL CONTINUE WITH JUST LOW CHC/SLIGHT CHC POPS IN THE FAR
N/NE CWA AFTER MIDNIGHT...UNDER LINGERING FORCING FOR PRECIP FROM
CHANNELED VORTICITY.

SOME BREAKS IN THE LOW CLOUDS LIKELY OVERNIGHT...BUT WINDS BEHIND
THE LOW WILL LIKELY KEEP MIXING ON GOING HELPING TO REDUCE
RADIATIONAL COOLING. LOW TEMPS LOOK ON TRACK.

SOME MINOR ADJUSTMENTS NEEDED FOR SKY GRIDS...BUT NO FORMAL ZONE
UPDATED NEEDED. GRIDS WILL BE AVAILABLE SHORTLY.

SHIMON
&&

.AVIATION...
ISSUED 657 PM CDT FRI MAY 8 2009...FOR THE 00Z TAFS

ANOTHER QUICK MOVING SHORTWAVE WILL BRING SOME MVFR CIGS AND VIS
TO PIA AND BMI. SHORT PERIODS OF IFR VIS WILL BE LIKELY IN THE
HEAVIER STORMS...WITH IFR CIGS LESS LIKELY. SPI HAS A CHANCE AT
MVFR CIGS AND IFR VIS IN THE LINE OF STORMS APPROACHING FROM THE
WEST. STORM CHANCES WILL BE PRIMARILY BETWEEN 01Z AND 06Z FROM
WEST TO EAST ACROSS THE TAF SITES.

AFTER MIDNIGHT...THE BEST FORCING FOR PRECIP WILL BE NE OF OUR
CWA...WITH A FEW LIGHT SHOWERS POSSIBLE THROUGH 09Z FOR BMI/CMI.
OTHERWISE...DRY CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED AFTER 06Z FOR SPI/DEC.

MVFR CIGS WILL DEVELOP LATE TONIGHT AND SAT MORN...BUT SHOULD
IMPROVE TO VFR CIGS BY LATE MORNING. GUSTY NORTHWEST WINDS ARE
EXPECTED BY 15Z...WITH GUSTS TO 25KT AT TIMES BY 18Z.

SHIMON
&&

.PREV DISCUSSION...
ISSUED 300 PM CDT FRI MAY 8 2009

MAIN CONCERN IS ON DEPARTING VORTEX TONIGHT. THEN ATTENTION TURNS
TO A FEW SHORTWAVES PASSING THROUGH DURING THE WEEKEND...DESPITE
HIGH SURFACE PRESSURE DURING THAT TIME. A SURFACE LOW IS EXPECTED
TO PASS BY TO OUR NORTH SUNDAY NIGHT...WITH ITS TRAILING TROUGH
MOVING ACROSS C IL ON MONDAY. A MORE ROBUST FRONTAL SYSTEM IS
EXPECTED TO ARRIVE ON WEDNESDAY AND WED NIGHT.

MODELS ARE IN GEN AGREEMENT THROUGH TUESDAY...THEN DIVERGE. WILL
LEAN TWRD THE GFS MORE CONCISE PRECIP TIMING FOR TUE NIGHT TO WED
NIGHT. THE 12Z ECMWF SPANS OUT PRECIP FROM TUE NIGHT THROUGH
THURSDAY. THAT SEEMS A BIT TOO AGGRESSIVE.

SHORT TERM...TONIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT.

A VIGOROUS MESO-VORTEX PASSING BY JUST TO OUR SOUTH THIS AFTERNOON
PUT DOWN 100+ MPH WINDS JUST SOUTH OF OUR AREA. THE RAIN SHIELD ON
THE NORTHERN FLANK WILL LIKELY BE JUST EAST OF OUR AREA BY
EVENING.

VISIBLE SATELLITE IMAGES SHOW CU REFORMING IN THE N HALF OF OUR
CWA WHERE THE SUNSHINE HAS DEVELOPED THE LAST COUPLE HOURS.
DEWPOINTS REMAIN IN THE UPPER 50S TO LOW 60S...SO THAT ARE WILL BE
READY FOR A FEW SHOWERS TO DEVELOP AS THE SHORTWAVE OVER IOWA
PASSES BY TO OUR N. WILL KEEP CHC POPS IN THE FAR N TONIGHT...WITH
A NARROW BORDER OF SLIGHT CHC DOWN TO PIA AND BMI AND HOOPSTON.

WILL KEEP DRY CONDITIONS FOR SATURDAY...DESPITE THE CHANCE FOR A
FEW LINGERING SPRINKLES EARLY IN THE MORNING FOR THE FAR NE FRINGE
OF OUR CWA.

ZONAL FLOW WILL BRING A SHORTWAVE ON OUR SW DOORSTEP BY LATE
SUNDAY AFTERNOON...WHICH WILL BRUSH OUR SW ZONES SUNDAY NIGHT.
WILL KEEP A BAND OF SLIGHT CHANCE POPS IN THE SW AREA. BY MONDAY
MORNING...PRECIP CHANCES SHOULD BE CLEAR OF OUR AREA TO THE SE.

LONG TERM...MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY.

RISING HEIGHTS ALOFT AND INCREASING PRESSURE AT THE SURFACE SHOULD
KEEP MONDAY DRY...AS THE N STREAM JET LIFTS TOWARD THE WESTERN
GREAT LAKES. BY TUESDAY AFTERNOON...PRECIP WILL BE CLOSE TO OUR W
CWA...AS WAA FLOWS AND MOISTURE INCREASES.

WILL KEEP CHC POPS OUT OF OUR CWA UNTIL TUES NIGHT...WITH WED AND
WED NIGHT BEING OUR BEST CHCS FOR SHOWERS AND STORMS. THE 12Z
ECMWF IS ABOUT 6 TO 12 HOURS BEHIND THE GFS ON THE PASSAGE OF THE
FRONT...BUT WILL ONLY KEEP SLIGHT CHC POPS ON THURS FOR NOW.
