NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LINCOLN IL
1049 AM CDT TUE APR 26 2011

.DISCUSSION...
ISSUED 1047 AM CDT TUE APR 26 2011

SURFACE LOW IN EAST IA THIS MORNING AND TO CONTINUE TO ROTATE TO
THE NORTHEAST. LOT OF MOISTURE TO KEEP CLOUDINESS OVER REGION AS
LOW PULLS TO NORTHEAST. MAY BE SOME BREAK OF CLOUDS IN THE
SOUTHEAST AND SO IS A CONCERN OF POSSIBLE STORM DEVELOPMENT IN
AFTERNOON...IF GETS SOME HEATING. LAPSE RATES GOOD THAT IF GET
SOME DEVELOPMENT...MAY BE A FEW HAIL PRODUCERS. WILL HAVE TO WATCH
THAT IN THE EXTREME SOUTHEAST CWA.

GOETSCH

.AVIATION...
ISSUED 621 AM CDT TUE APR 26 2011

LOW PRESSURE IS LOCATED EASTERN IA WITH A WARM FRONT EASTWARD INTO
NORTHERN IN...AND A COLD FRONT SOUTHWEST INTO SOUTHWESTERN MO. DEEP
LAYERED MOISTURE WILL CONTINUE OVER IL TODAY INTO TONIGHT...ALTHOUGH
THERE WILL BE A RELATIVE LULL IN PRECIPITATION THIS MORNING. EXPECT
ONLY SCATTERED SHOWERS WITH SOME TEMPO MVFR STRATOCU...OTHERWISE
CEILINGS SHOULD BE ABOVE 3K FT WITH SOUTHWEST SURFACE WINDS 15-25 KT
ALONG WIND HIGHER GUSTS. WINDS WILL DECREASE AROUND 00Z AND BECOME
LIGHT/VARIABLE. LATER TONIGHT ANOTHER SHORTWAVE WILL MOVE UP FROM
THE SOUTHERN PLAINS INTO THE LOWER OHIO VALLEY...BRINGING ANOTHER
UPSWING IN PRECIPITATION MAINLY AFTER MIDNIGHT ALONG WITH MVFR/IFR
CEILINGS.

04
&&

.PREV DISCUSSION...
ISSUED 314 AM CDT TUE APR 26 2011

MAIN CONCERN CONTINUES TO BE THREAT FOR HEAVY RAIN AND FLOODING
ACROSS THE SOUTHEAST KILX CWA...PARTICULARLY LATER TONIGHT INTO
WEDNESDAY WITH NEXT POTENT WAVE EXPECTED TO IMPACT THE REGION.

07Z SURFACE ANALYSIS SHOWS LOW PRESSURE OVER NORTHWEST
MISSOURI...WITH WARM FRONTAL BOUNDARY EXTENDING EASTWARD INTO
CENTRAL ILLINOIS. STEADY RAIN CONTINUES TO FALL OVER EAST-CENTRAL
AND SOUTHEAST ILLINOIS...HOWEVER THE HEAVIEST AXIS HAS NOW SHIFTED
INTO INDIANA. ALOFT...ACTIVE FLOW PATTERN CONTINUES ACROSS THE
CONUS. ONE VIGOROUS SHORT-WAVE IS LIFTING NORTHEASTWARD THROUGH
KANSAS/MISSOURI...WHILE ANOTHER WAVE IS ALREADY APPARENT UPSTREAM
ACROSS NEVADA/UTAH.

SHORT TERM...TODAY THROUGH THURSDAY
SURFACE LOW WILL LIFT NORTHWARD INTO IOWA THIS MORNING...PULLING
WARM FRONT INTO NORTHERN ILLINOIS. SCATTERED SHOWERS WILL LINGER
ACROSS THE AREA WITHIN THE WARM SECTOR...AS MOISTURE CONTINUES TO
STREAM NORTHWARD AROUND THE SURFACE/UPPER LOW. PRECIP WILL TEND TO
COME TO AN AND DURING THE AFTERNOON ACROSS THE WESTERN CWA AS
MID-LEVEL DRY SLOT CURRENTLY EVIDENT ON WATER VAPOR IMAGERY PUSHING
INTO ARKANSAS TRIES TO WORKS ITS WAY NORTHWARD. FURTHER
EAST...TRAILING FRONT/WIND SHIFT NEVER CLEARS THE EASTERN CWA...SO
AM A LITTLE CONCERNED ABOUT RE-DEVELOPMENT WITHIN THE LINGERING
INSTABILITY AXIS. NAM MAINTAINS DRY CONDITIONS...HOWEVER 4KM WRF-NMM
HINTS AT WIDELY SCATTERED CONVECTION ALONG THE BOUNDARY. HAVE
THEREFORE INCLUDED A CHANCE FOR THUNDER ALONG AND EAST OF I-57 FOR
THE AFTERNOON.

NEXT UPPER-WAVE WILL QUICKLY TRACK INTO THE SOUTHERN PLAINS LATER
TODAY...RESULTING IN SURFACE CYCLOGENESIS OVER OKLAHOMA. 00Z 26 APR
MODELS ARE A BIT FURTHER NORTH AND WEST WITH ITS EXPECTED TRACK THAN
PREVIOUS RUNS...TAKING IT INTO INDIANA BY WEDNESDAY EVENING. A LEAD
SHORT-WAVE IS PROGGED TO LIFT NORTHEASTWARD AHEAD OF THE MAIN
FEATURE TONIGHT...BRINGING A RENEWED ROUND OF SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS BACK INTO PARTS OF CENTRAL ILLINOIS. THINK THE EVENING
WILL BE LARGELY DRY...WITH PRECIP RAPIDLY SPREADING ACROSS AT LEAST
THE EASTERN HALF OF THE CWA AFTER MIDNIGHT.

AS THE MAIN UPPER WAVE AND ASSOCIATED SURFACE LOW TRACK ALONG THE
WABASH RIVER INTO INDIANA ON WEDNESDAY...RAIN WILL CONTINUE ACROSS
MUCH OF THE AREA. THE HIGHEST POPS WILL BE FOCUSED ALONG AND EAST OF
I-57...WITH DECREASING RAIN CHANCES FURTHER WEST. RAINFALL AMOUNTS
WITH THE SYSTEM TONIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY MAY EXCEED ONE INCH ALONG AND
SOUTHEAST OF A PARIS TO FLORA LINE...BUT WILL LIKELY BE ONE TENTH OF
AN INCH OR LESS FURTHER WEST ACROSS THE ILLINOIS RIVER VALLEY.
SHOWERS WILL LINGER ACROSS EAST-CENTRAL AND SOUTHEAST ILLINOIS INTO
WEDNESDAY EVENING BEFORE THE SYSTEM FINALLY PULLS AWAY.

UPPER LOW WILL CONTINUE TO SPIN JUST NORTH OF THE AREA ON
THURSDAY...KEEPING CONDITIONS MOSTLY CLOUDY AND COOL. MAY EVEN SEE A
FEW LIGHT SHOWERS FROM TIME TO TIME AS SPOKES OF ENERGY ROTATE
AROUND THE LOW ACROSS CENTRAL ILLINOIS. HAVE INCLUDED SLIGHT CHANCE
POPS ACROSS THE NORTHERN TWO-THIRDS OF THE CWA ACCORDINGLY.

LONG TERM...FRIDAY THROUGH MONDAY
HIGH PRESSURE WILL TAKE CONTROL OF THE WEATHER ON FRIDAY...PROVIDING
PLENTY OF SUNSHINE AND BOOSTING HIGH TEMPS BACK TO NEAR NORMAL IN
THE MIDDLE TO UPPER 60S. AFTER THAT...A COLD FRONT WILL APPROACH
FROM THE WEST OVER THE WEEKEND. THIS FEATURE WILL LIKELY BE MUCH
MORE PROGRESSIVE THAN THE PERSISTENT BOUNDARY THAT HAS PLAGUED PARTS
OF THE MIDWEST/OHIO VALLEY THIS WEEK...HOWEVER MODELS ARE STILL IN
DISAGREEMENT ON ITS SPEED. BOTH GFS/ECMWF BRING THE FRONT INTO
ILLINOIS ON SATURDAY...THEN GFS PUSHES IT RAPIDLY OFF TO THE EAST BY
SATURDAY NIGHT...WHILE ECMWF SLOWS IT DOWN AND KEEPS IT IN THE
VICINITY UNTIL SUNDAY NIGHT. AT THIS POINT...WILL ONLY FEATURE
MENTIONABLE POPS SATURDAY/SATURDAY NIGHT...THEN WILL GO DRY FOR
SUNDAY AND MONDAY.
