AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHICAGO/ROMEOVILLE IL
538 PM CDT FRI AUG 12 2011

.DISCUSSION...
317 PM CDT

THE PLEASANT WEATHER IS QUICKLY COMING TO AN END THIS EVENING...WITH
CONDITIONS BECOMING MORE UNSETTLED TONIGHT AND THROUGH THE WEEKEND.

THE FORECAST SITUATION HAS BECOME MUCH MORE MUDDLED TODAY AS NOT
MUCH OF THE GUIDANCE IS REALLY HANDLING THE NEAR TERM SITUATION VERY
WELL AND THEN PRETTY MUCH GOES ALL OVER THE PLACE FOR TONIGHT AND
TOMORROW.  SO...HAVE MADE SOME RATHER SIGNIFICANT CHANGES TO THE
GOING FORECAST...ESPECIALLY WITH REGARD TO POPS/WX/QPF.

CURRENTLY...SATELLITE IMAGERY INDICATES A MODEST SHORTWAVE MOVING
FROM FAR SERN MN INTO SWRN WI...WHILE THE REMNANTS OF AN EARLIER
CONVECTIVE COMPLEX MOVES INTO CNTRL/SRN IL.  THIS HAS LEFT NRN IL
DRY AND WITH MOSTLY SUNNY SKIES.  FEEL THAT ANY SHRA/TSRA TO AFFECT
THE CWA WILL LIKELY BE CONFINED TO THE NRN TIER COUNTIES ALONG THE
WI BORDER INVOF THE SHORTWAVE TRACKING ACROSS SRN WI.  HAVE
DECREASED POPS TO HIGHER END CHANCE TO THE FAR NORTH AND THEN
DECREASING TO SLIGHT CHANCE TOWARD THE ILLINOIS RIVER VALLEY.  THE
NEW 12Z ECMWF RUN SEEMS TO HAVE THE BEST HANDLE ON THE CURRENT
CONDITIONS...AND LEADING INTO THE NEAR TERM FORECAST THIS
EVENING...SO HAVE LARGELY ADJUSTED THE GOING FORECAST CLOSER TO THAT
SOLUTION.  THIS WOULD ALSO KEEP THE BEST PCPN CHANCES FOR THE NRN
COUNTIES THROUGH THE NIGHT AND PERHAPS ONLY SOME SLIGHT CHANCE POPS
FOR THE SOUTH.  THIS LATEST GUIDANCE ALSO SUGGESTS THAT MUCH OF THE
AREA SHOULD BE EITHER DRY OR PERHAPS A FEW LINGERING SHOWERS FOR
SATURDAY MORNING.

BY LATE SATURDAY MORNING...THE WEAK SFC REFLECTION OF A STRONG MID
LEVEL SHORTWAVE DROPPING OUT OF THE NRN PLAINS SHOULD MOVE INTO SRN
LOWER MICHIGAN.  BY THIS POINT...THE MID LEVEL SHORT WAVE WILL BE
MOVING OVER NRN IL.  SFC WINDS WILL BEGIN VEERING MORE NWLY-NLY AND
LOW LEVEL COLD ADVECTION WILL BEGIN.  BY AROUND NOON...EXPECT THAT
WIDESPREAD INSTABILITY SHOWERS SHOULD BEGIN TO DEVELOP OVER THE
AREA.  THUS HAVE MAINTAINED THE LIKELY POPS FOR TOMORROW AFTERNOON
AND INTO TOMORROW EVENING.  THE OTHER MAIN CHANGE TO THE GOING
FORECAST IS TO RATHER DRASTICALLY REDUCE THE ASSOCIATED QPF.  SINCE
THE PCPN IS NOW EXPECTED TO BE MORE SHOWERY AND LESS LIKELY TO BE
ORGANIZED CONVECTION...TOTAL QPF ACROSS THE AREA SHOULD BE MORE ON
THE ORDER OF A FEW TENTHS OF AN INCH RATHER THAN THE 1 INCH OR MORE
PREVIOUSLY ANTICIPATED.  AS THE UPPER TROUGH MOVES OFF TO THE EAST
LATE SATURDAY AND INTO SUNDAY...SOME LINGERING SCT SHOWERS ARE
POSSIBLE OVER THE FAR ERN PORTION OF THE AREA...PARTICULARLY OVER
THE NWRN INDIANA COUNTIES.

THE ONE AREA WHERE THE FORECAST HAS SEEN LITTLE CHANGE IS WITH
TEMPERATURES.  THE GUIDANCE HAS BEEN A LITTLE MORE CONSISTENT IN
THIS AREA...WITH TEMPERATURES EXPECTED TO BE NEAR OR SLIGHTLY BELOW
NORMAL.  HIGHS OVER THE WEEKEND SHOULD RANGES FROM THE UPPER 70S TO
THE LOWER 80S AND LOWS IN THE LOWER TO MIDDLE 60S.

FOR THE LONGER TERM FORECAST PERIOD...FROM MONDAY THROUGH
FRIDAY...THE GENERAL TREND SHOULD BE FOR THE UPPER LEVEL PATTERN TO
BECOME MORE PROGRESSIVE...WITH A HIGH AMPLITUDE RIDGE OVER THE WRN
CONUS AND THE DEEP TROUGH OVER THE ERN CONUS TO MOVE EWD AS A DEEP
UPPER LOW DIGS INTO THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST.  BY TUESDAY AND
WEDNESDAY...THE UPPER RIDGE SHOULD BUILD ACROSS THE CNTRL PLAINS AND
THE MISSISSIPPI VALLEY.  THE RIDGE SHOULD ALSO BEGIN TO FLATTEN AS A
SERIES OF SHORTWAVES MOVE OVER THE PEAK OF THE FLATTENING RIDGE AND
CROSS THE MIDWEST.  THESE WAVES SHOULD BRING A CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS FOR TUESDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT.  THE PATTERN
SHOULD REMAIN RELATIVELY CONSISTENT THROUGH THE REST OF THE WEEK.
TEMPERATURES THROUGH THE EXTENDED PERIOD SHOULD BE NEAR
NORMAL...WITH HIGHS IN THE LOWER 80S AND LOWS IN THE 60S.

//ORD AND MDW CONCERNS...UPDATED 22Z...

* PRECIP CHANCES TONIGHT AS WELL AS ONCE AGAIN LATE IN THE
  FORECAST PERIOD ON SATURDAY.

* ASSOCIATED LOWER VIS AND CEILINGS.

BEACHLER

//DISCUSSION...UPDATED 18Z...

A RELATIVELY QUIET START TO THE FORECAST PERIOD WILL BEGIN TO
SLOWLY CHANGE LATE THIS AFTERNOON INTO TONIGHT. LATEST SURFACE
OBSERVATIONS INDICATING A DECENT AMOUNT OF PRESSURE FALLS OVER
NORTHWEST ILLINOIS INTO SOUTHWEST WISCONSIN THIS AFTERNOON. THIS
IS OCCURRING OUT AHEAD OF A MID LEVEL FEATURE CURRENTLY PROGRESSING
ACROSS SOUTHERN MINNESOTA AND CENTRAL IOWA. EXPECT SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS TO DEVELOP IN THIS GENERAL VICINITY LATE THIS
AFTERNOON INTO EARLY EVENING. IT CURRENTLY LOOKS AS IF THESE
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WHICH DEVELOP ACROSS NORTHWEST ILLINOIS
SHOULD PROGRESS NORTHEAST INTO WISCONSIN THIS EVENING WITH SOME
DEVELOPMENT ON THE SOUTHERN FRINGE EXPECTED AS THIS MID LEVEL
FEATURE CONTINUES TO MOVE EAST. ALTHOUGH...CONFIDENCE BEGINS TO
LOWER WITH THIS POSSIBILITY AS BEST FORCING SHOULD REMAIN TO THE
NORTH OF THE TERMINALS AND SOME DRIER AIR CURRENTLY IN PLACE
PLAYING A FACTOR. ANY LINGERING PRECIP SHOULD EXIT THE REGION BY
SATURDAY MORNING WITH A LULL IN THE ACTIVITY EXPECTED. THEN A
STRONGER UPPER LEVEL TROUGH WILL APPROACH FROM THE NORTHWEST BY
MID DAY SATURDAY. AS THIS OCCURS...LOW LEVEL LAPSE RATES WILL
INCREASE OUT AHEAD IT AND SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS SHOULD BEGIN
TO SPREAD EAST ACROSS THE TERMINALS INTO THE AFTERNOON/END OF
FORECAST PERIOD.

HIGH PRESSURE WILL MOVE OFF TO THE EAST COAST TONIGHT WHILE WEAK
LOW PRESSURE FROM THE UPPER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY TO THE SOUTHERN
PLAINS BEGINS TO ORGANIZE AND STRENGTHEN. THE LOW WILL REACH
CENTRAL LAKE MICHIGAN SATURDAY. THERE IS SOME MODEL DISCREPANCY ON
THE EXACT PATH AND INTENSITY OF THE LOW BUT IT APPEARS SOUTH
WINDS WILL STRENGTHEN LATE TONIGHT AND SATURDAY MORNING AHEAD OF
THE LOW...OVER THE SOUTH HALF OF LAKE MICHIGAN. THE LOW WILL THEN
DRIFT SOUTHEAST INTO MICHIGAN AND OHIO SATURDAY NIGHT AND SUNDAY.
IN THE WAKE OF THIS LOW AND WITH COOLER AIR MOVING ACROSS THE
LAKE...STRONG NORTH WINDS WILL DEVELOP. HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD
INTO THE WESTERN LAKES SUNDAY NIGHT AND MONDAY BRINGING A PERIOD
OF LIGHT NORTH WINDS. WINDS WILL BECOME SOUTH TUESDAY AS THE HIGH
DRIFTS EAST INTO THE EASTERN LAKES AND OHIO VALLEY.
