Area forecast discussion, May 22, 6:35 PM CDT, 1 hour 7 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LINCOLN IL 635 PM CDT SUN MAY 22 2011 .DISCUSSION... ISSUED 306 PM CDT SUN MAY 22 2011 ACTIVE WEATHER DAY BEGINNING TO UNFOLD ACROSS CENTRAL ILLINOIS... AND IT SHOULD LINGER FOR SEVERAL MORE HOURS. AN UPSTREAM COLD FRONT FROM THE UPPER MIDWEST TO THE PLAINS WILL SINK INTO THE AREA TOMORROW AND STALL OUT...BRINGING PERIODIC SHOWER/STORM CHANCES TO THE AREA FOR MUCH OF THE WEEK. MAIN FORECAST CONCERN CENTERS ON TRYING TO TIME PRECIPITATION CHANCES AND ANY SEVERE AND/OR FLOODING RISK. 12Z MODELS IN REASONABLE AGREEMENT WITH MOST FEATURES EXPECTED TO IMPACT FORECAST AREA OVER NEXT SEVERAL DAYS. HOWEVER...THE POSITION OF THE FRONT WILL BE CRITICAL TO DETERMINE WHERE THE PRECIPITATION WILL EVENTUALLY FALL. THE FACT THAT THE FRONT WILL BE MODULATED BY DAILY CONVECTION MAKES FORECAST SPECIFICITY VERY DIFFICULT. SHORT TERM...TONIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY...VIGOROUS UPPER LOW OVER THE UPPER MIDWEST WILL CONTINUE TO SLOWLY MOVE NORTHEAST AND OPEN UP OVER THE NEXT 24/36 HOURS. THIS WILL DRAG A COLD FRONT INTO THE FORECAST AREA MONDAY. FAIRLY IMPRESSIVE SHEAR/INSTABILITY AHEAD OF THE FRONT TONIGHT WILL CONTINUE THE ONGOING SEVERE WEATHER THREAT. THE MAIN CONCERN FOR WIDESPREAD SEVERE WEATHER IS ASSOCIATED WITH THE LINE OF STORMS CURRENTLY FIRING FROM EASTERN IOWA TO EASTERN KANSAS. THIS FRONTAL BOUNDARY...ONCE IT STALLS IN THE FORECAST AREA...WILL CONTINUE TO BE THE FOCUS FOR ADDITIONAL CONVECTION OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS AS DISTURBANCES RIDE ALONG THE BOUNDARY. AT THIS TIME...THE MOST NOTABLE STORM CHANCES APPEAR TO BE MONDAY NIGHT AND AGAIN ON WEDNESDAY. LONG TERM...THURSDAY THROUGH SUNDAY...SHOWER/STORM CHANCES EXPECTED TO LINGER INTO THURSDAY WITH THE WAVE ARRIVING WEDNESDAY. THEN...WHILE MODEL/ENSEMBLE SPREAD IS STILL SIGNIFICANT...THE BEST MODEL CONSENSUS SUGGESTS A QUIETER WEATHER PATTERN FOR FRIDAY AND THE WEEKEND. && .AVIATION... ISSUED 620 PM CDT SUN MAY 22 2011 COVERAGE OF STRONG CONVECTION THE MAIN FORECAST CONCERN EARLY IN THE PERIOD. FIRST WAVE OF STORMS HAS PUSHED EAST OF THE STATE WITH A SECOND BAND OF THUNDERSTORMS PUSHING INTO WEST CENTRAL ILLINOIS. WILL CONTINUE TO USE TEMPO AND TIME THE STORMS INTO THE TAF SITES THIS EVENING. LOOKS AS IF THE BULK OF THE STORMS SHOULD PUSH EAST OF OUR TAF SITES BY 04Z. THEN WE WILL HAVE TO WATCH FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF SOME STRATUS AND FOG TOWARDS DAWN DUE TO THE RESIDUAL MOISTURE LEFT OVER FROM THE RAINFALL THIS AFTN AND EVENING. OUTSIDE ANY STORMS...VFR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED TO PREVAIL. FRONT SHOULD SETTLE SLOWLY SOUTH ON MONDAY WITH REDEVELOPMENT OF STORMS POSSIBLE ALONG AND TO THE SOUTH OF THE BOUNDARY...WHICH WOULD INCLUDE MOST OF OUR TAF SITES. COVERAGE OF STORMS STILL VERY MUCH IN DOUBT THIS FAR OUT...SO FOR NOW...WILL GO WITH VCTS AFTR 20Z. WINDS OUTSIDE THE STORMS WILL REMAIN OUT OF THE SOUTH TO SOUTHWEST TONIGHT AT 15 TO 25 KTS WITH OCCASIONAL GUSTS ARND 30 KTS...WITH SPEEDS GRDLY DECREASING LATER THIS EVENING. WINDS WILL VEER INTO THE SOUTHWEST AND WEST ON MONDAY WITH SPEEDS FROM 15 TO 20 KTS...WITH OCCASIONAL GUSTS ARND 30KTS. SMITH && .ILX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... NONE. &&
