Area forecast discussion, Jun 5, 10:17 PM CDT, 4 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LINCOLN IL
1017 PM CDT SAT JUN 5 2010

.DISCUSSION...
ISSUED 1009 PM CDT SAT JUN 5 2010

CONVECTION CONTINUES TO SHIFT EAST AND SOUTHEAST ACROSS THE FORECAST
AREA THIS EVENING WITH NUMEROUS REPORTS TORNADOES. IT APPEARS THE
STORMS ARE SLOWLY EVOVLING INTO MORE OF A STRAIGHT LINE WIND SIGNATURE
OVER THE PAST HALF HOUR. STILL SEEING FAIRLY DECENT INSTABILITY OVER
EAST CENTRAL ILLINOIS WITH 0-1KM SRH'S NOT AS IMPRESSIVE AS AREAS
FURTHER WEST. CURRENT FORECAST STILL HOLDING AND WILL WAIT ANOTHER
HALF HOUR UNTIL WW 266 EXPIRES TO MAKE ANY SIGNIFICANT CHANGES TO
THE ZONES.

.AVIATION...
ISSUED 640 PM CDT SAT JUN 5 2010

CONVECTION TIMING AND COVERAGE THE MAIN CHALLENGE THIS FORECAST PERIOD.
MAIN BAND OF STRONG CONVECTION ACRS EAST CENTRAL IOWA WILL SHIFT
EAST AND SOUTHEAST ACRS THE TAF SITES BETWEEN 00Z-04Z WITH DAMAGING
WINDS THE PRIMARY THREAT. WE WILL ALSO SEE A PERIOD OF MVFR CIGS IN
THE HEAVY RAIN...AND MODELS SUGGEST A BAND OF STRATOCU/MVFR CIGS
BEHIND THE ACTUAL COLD FRONT. ALL THE RAIN SHOULD BE EAST OF THE TAF
SITES BY 04Z WITH SFC WINDS SWITCHING FROM SOUTHWEST THIS EVENING
TO THE NORTHWEST JUST AFTR FROPA AFTR 05Z. VFR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED
ON SUNDAY AS HIGH PRESSURE MOVES IN FROM THE WEST. SOUNDINGS ON SUNDAY
INDICATE SOME WIND GUSTS BTWN 20-25 KTS BY AFTERNOON OUT OF THE
NW...WHICH WILL QUICKLY DIMINISH BY SUNSET.

SMITH
&&

.PREV DISCUSSION...
ISSUED 300 PM CDT SAT JUN 5 2010

SHORT TERM...TONIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY...
CONVECTION IS BEGINNING TO INITIATE OVER NORTHERN IOWA INTO
NORTHWESTERN ILLINOIS THIS AFTERNOON. THIS ACTIVITY SHOULD BUILD
WITH TIME AS IT MOVES EAST AND SOUTHEAST INTO CENTRAL ILLINOIS BY
23Z-01Z. AIRMASS DOWNSTREAM OVER ILLINOIS HAS BEEN EXTENSIVELY
OVERTURNED BY REMNANTS OF PREVIOUS THUNDERSTORMS THIS MORNING...AND
LIGHT SHOWERS ARE CONTINUING TO MOVE FROM NORTHEAST MISSOURI INTO
WESTERN AND CENTRAL ILLINOIS. THIS IS SERVING TO HINDER AIRMASS
RECOVERY. SHORT RANGE MODELS CONTINUE TO INDICATE SEVERE
POTENTIAL...BUT THE BIGGEST QUESTION WILL BE WHETHER THE AIRMASS
WILL RECOVER BY THE TIME CONVECTION ARRIVES. IRREGARDLESS...POPS
WILL BE HIGHEST OVER THE NORTHWEST HALF BEFORE 06Z AND OVER THE
SOUTHEAST AFTERWARD. ALL OF THE ACTIVITY SHOULD BE PAST THE AREA BY
12Z SUN...WITH DECREASING CLOUDS FOLLOWING.

SOME AREAS OVER THE NORTH PORTIONS OF THE FORECAST AREA HAVE ALREADY
SEEN MORE THAN INCH OF RAIN FROM THE THUNDERSTORMS LAST NIGHT AND
THIS MORNING...SO WITH ADDITIONAL CONVECTION ON THE WAY TONIGHT...WE
HAVE EXTENDED THE FLASH FLOOD WATCH TO CONTINUE UNTIL 06Z TONIGHT.

THE WESTERN END OF TONIGHTS COLD FRONT WILL STALL OUT OVER THE
PLAINS AND BEGIN COMING NORTHWARD AGAIN MONDAY INTO TUESDAY. THIS
WILL BRING THE NEXT CHANCE OF RAIN WHICH SHOULD MOVE INTO CENTRAL
ILLINOIS LATE MONDAY NIGHT AND TUESDAY. THE GFS IS SHOWING SOME
GRIDSCALE CONVECTIVE FEEDBACK IN ITS QPF FIELDS...BUT THE NAM ALSO
INDICATES THE POTENTIAL FOR AN MCS WITH THE ASSOCIATED THREAT FOR
HEAVY RAINFALL ALONG AND NORTH OF THE WARM FRONT AS IT MOVES
THROUGH. WILL PUT IN SOME CHANCE POPS FOR LATE MONDAY NIGHT...THEN
40-60 PCT POPS TUESDAY WITH THIS SYSTEM.

LONG TERM...WEDNESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY...
THE CHANCES FOR RAIN/CONVECTION WILL CONTINUE INTO WEDNESDAY AS MOST
OF THE MODEL OUTPUT SUGGESTS A SHORTWAVE AND ASSOCIATED SURFACE WAVE
MOVING THROUGH ILLINOIS ALONG THE FRONT. THE FRONT WILL THEN MOVE
TEMPORARILY SOUTH OF THE AREA BRINGING A LULL IN THE PRECIPITATION
THURSDAY BEFORE MOVING NORTH AGAIN FRIDAY. BY SATURDAY...VERY WARM
TEMPERATURES ARE LIKELY AS THE WARM FRONT MOVES UP INTO THE GREAT
LAKES AND THE NEXT STORM SYSTEM DEEPENS OVER THE WESTERN PLAINS.
