AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHICAGO/ROMEOVILLE IL
259 AM CST TUE FEB 1 2011

.DISCUSSION...
900 PM CST

THE FIRST ROUND OF SNOW HAS OVERSPREAD THE REGION. LATEST RADAR
TRENDS INDICATE THE HEAVIEST SNOW MOVING THROUGH EAST-CENTRAL
ILLINOIS AND MOVING INTO NWRN INDIANA. LATEST IR SATELLITE IMAGERY
SHOWS COOLING CLOUD TOPS MOVING INTO NWRN INDIANA...SO
OCCASIONALLY MODERATE SNOW WILL BE POSSIBLE...ESPECIALLY OVER NWRN
INDIANA THROUGH MIDNIGHT. LIGHT SNOW SHOULD CONTINUE INTO THE
EARLY MORNING HOURS. ACCUMULATIONS OF 1 TO 2 INCHES ARE LIKELY
WITH INITIAL BATCH OF SNOW.

FOR THE MAJOR SNOW STORM TO HIT THE REGION TOMORROW...THE GOING
FORECAST STILL LOOKS ON TRACK AND DO NOT PLAN ON MAKING ANY
ADJUSTMENTS AT THIS TIME. THE UPPER LOW IS NOW MOVING THROUGH THE
SRN ROCKIES AND WILL EJECT OUT OVER THE SOUTH HIGH PLAINS TONIGHT.
A QUICK LOOK AT THE NEW 00Z RUN OF THE NAM SHOWS NO REAL SURPRISES
AND CONTINUES TO BE SLIGHTLY EAST OF THE EARLIER GFS/ECMWF/SREF
RUNS. BUT EVEN THIS SLIGHTLY MORE EASTERLY TRACK WOULD ONLY SHIFT
THE SWATH OF HEAVIEST SNOW SLIGHTLY SOUTH...AND THE ENTIRE AREA
WOULD STILL SEE TOTAL SNOWFALL IN EXCESS IN EXCESS OF 1 FOOT WITH
A SWATH OF SNOW IN EXCESS OF 20 INCHES...INCLUDING 20+ INCHES OVER
DOWNTOWN CHICAGO AND THE NEARBY LAKEFRONT LOCATIONS.
HOWEVER...WILL WAIT UNTIL THE COMPLETE SUITE OF 00Z MODEL
GUIDANCE COMES IN BEFORE CONSIDERING ANY ADJUSTMENTS TO THE GOING
FORECAST FOR TOMORROW.

KREIN

.PREVIOUS DISCUSSION...
328 PM CST

IR IMAGERY DEPICTS CONSIDERABLE CLOUD COVER ACROSS THE ENTIRE GREAT
LAKES REGION EXTENDING SOUTH TO THE OZARKS. A WEAK VORT MAX
CONTINUES TO SLIDE NORTHEAST THIS EVENING WITH ABUNDANT MOISTURE.
CURRENT RADAR TRENDS THIS AFTN HAVE SHOWN THE LEADING EDGE OF THE
PRECIP SHIELD STEADILY PUSHING NORTH/NORTHEAST ACROSS CENTRAL
ILLINOIS INTO PORTIONS OF NORTHERN ILLINOIS/NORTHWEST INDIANA.
MESOSCALE GUIDANCE HAS CONTINUED TO SUGGEST THE ELEVATED VORT MAX
THIS EVE WILL PASS FROM WEST CENTRAL IL TO NORTHWEST IN. WENT WITH A
BLEND OF THE NAM/LCL WRF/GFS SOLUTIONS TONIGHT. QPF TOTALS WILL
REMAIN LGT WITH EXPECTED TOTALS THRU DAYBREAK TUE ARND 0.1 TO 0.2
INCHES. THIS COMBINED WITH A SHALLOW DGZ...EXPECT SNOW RATIOS TO BE
BTWN 13:1 TO 15:1. SNOWFALL TOTALS OVERNIGHT SHUD BE ARND 1-3 INCHES
WITH LOCAL AREAS UP TO 4 INCHES. TIMING APPEARS TO BE SLIGHTLY
EARLIER THAN PREVIOUSLY NOTED...SO HAVE ADJUSTED TIMING UP OF THE
FIRST WAVE OF SNOW TO LATE THIS AFTN THRU EARLY TUE MORNING.
OVERNIGHT TEMPS SHUD COOL TO THE UPR TEENS TO LOW 20S.

TOMORROW...
MAJOR WINTER STORM AND STRENGTHENING SHORTWAVE CONTINUES TO DEVELOP
ACROSS EASTERN TEXAS. SREF 850MB U-WIND ANOMALIES HAVE CONTINUED TO
SHOW GROWTH IN THE 4 TO 5 STD DEV BELOW NORMAL OR PEGGED AT 50-60KTS
OR IN THE PROXIMITY OF THE LLVL JET. IT DOESN/T APPEAR THIS WILL
ARRIVE OVER OUR AREA UNTIL AFT NOON TUE. UNTIL THIS POINT IT APPEARS
A LULL BETWEEN THE TWO WAVES WILL OCCUR FROM 12Z TUE TO 18Z. SNOW
SHUD THEN OVERSPREAD THE AREA FROM SOUTH TO NORTH. SFC ISALLOBARIC
PRESSURE GRADIENT STEADILY RAMPS UP THROUGHOUT THE AFTN HRS...WITH A
EASTERLY FLOW TURNING NORTHEASTERLY. ANOMALOUSLY STRONG
ANTI-CYCLONIC FLOW CENTERED ACROSS THE NORTHERN PLAINS WILL
INFLUENCE AREAS EAST INTO SOUTHERN ONTARIO...HOWEVER THIS WILL ONLY
ENHANCE THE PROBABILITY THAT WE WILL SEE LAKE ENHANCED SNOWFALL
ACROSS NORTHEAST ILLINOIS TUE AFTN.

MIXED LYR SHUD EASILY TOUCH THE 50-60KT JET AT 850MB...BRINGING TO
THE SFC SUSTAINED WINDS BY 18Z TUE BTWN 25-35MPH WITH GUSTS UP TO
40MPH BY TUE AFTN. PWAT VALUES STEADILY INCREASE AND APPROACH 1 TO
1.5 INCHES FROM 21Z-09Z WED. THIS COMBINED WITH THE LARGE LAYER OF
DENDRITIC GROWTH ZONE OF NEARLY 10KFT...SUBSTANTIAL OMEGA OR LIFT
INTO THIS LYR...200-500J/KG OF ELEVATED CAPE...COULD EASILY
TRANSLATE INTO SNOWFALL RATES BTWN 2-3IN/HR. FOR A PERIOD OF TIME IF
WE CAN GENERATE ENOUGH INSTABILITY THUNDERSNOW IS POSSIBLE WHICH
COULD FURTHER ENHANCE THE SNOWFALL RATES TO 4IN/HR. THE PEAK OF THE
STORM TUE NGT/EARLY WED CONTINUES TO BE BTWN 03-12Z WED. TOTAL QPF
FROM NUMEROUS SOLUTIONS HAS BLENDED WELL WITH ARND 1.2 TO 1.6
INCHES...WITH A FEW LOCATIONS SEEING SLIGHTLY HIGHER QPF.

THE CONCERN CONTINUES TO BE ABOUT THE PRECISE TRACK OF THE SFC
LOW...AS MODELS CONTINUE TO SHOW SOME CORRECTION. THIS IS COMMON
WITH THE INTERACTION BETWEEN GROUND THAT IS COOLER OR SNOW COVERED
AHEAD OF THE SYSTEM. NONETHELESS IT STILL APPEARS THE HIGHEST
PROBABLE TRACK WILL BE NEAR EVANSVILLE TO DAYTON OHIO. HOWEVER AGAIN
MODELS MAY CONTINUE TO SHOW SOME CORRECTION WITH FUTURE SOLUTIONS
UNTIL WE NEAR TUE AFTN. TEMPS WILL REMAIN IN THE LOW/MID 20S...WHICH
IS SLIGHTLY WARMER THAN EARLIER THINKING. COULD EASILY SEE
TEMPERATURES FROM BENTON COUNTY WEST TO LASALLE COUNTY PUSH INTO THE
UPR 20S...AS WARMER AIR AHEAD OF THE SHORTWAVE LIFTS INTO CENTRAL
IL/IN. AT THIS POINT CONTINUE TO THINK THAT WE WILL SEE MAINLY ALL
SNOW AS THE TRACK FROM CURRENT SOLUTIONS HAS CORRECTED FURTHER
SOUTH.

SNOWFALL TOTALS:
AS DISCUSSED EARLIER...SNOWFALL TOTALS COULD EASILY PUSH BEYOND 1
FOOT TO IN SOME LOCATIONS UPWARDS OF 2 FEET...ESPECIALLY CLOSER TO
LAKE MICHIGAN. THE CHALLENGE REMAINS AS TO THE PRECISE LOCATION OF
WHERE THE DEFORMATION ZONE WILL SETUP...HOWEVER FEEL THAT BEFORE
THIS ZONE PIVOTS EAST AND BECOME ORIENTED FROM NORTH TO SOUTH OVER
THE LAKE...THE HEAVIEST SNOW WILL BE FROM COOK COUNTY SOUTHWEST TO
LASALLE/LIVINGSTON COUNTIES. SNOWFALL RATIOS WILL ALSO FLUCTUATE
BETWEEN 12:1 AT THE ONSET TO 10:1...AS THE RELATIVELY WARMER AIR
ENTRAINS. THEN RATIOS WILL START TO INCREASE AND APPROACH 15:1 BY
09Z WED...AS THE SYSTEM BEGINS TO PIVOT EAST AWAY AND DRY AIR
ARRIVES FROM THE WEST.

LAKE EFFECT SNOW WILL CONTINUE FOR PORTIONS OF EXTREME NORTHEAST
ILLINOIS THEN NORTHWEST INDIANA INTO MUCH OF WED. HEIGHTS WILL
STEADILY INCREASE AND PROVIDE DIFLUENT FLOW ALOFT...SHRINKING THE
DGZ. SO AS OF THIS FORECAST PKG HAVE ADJUSTED SNOWFALL TOTALS JUST A
BIT...AND EXPECT MAINLY BETWEEN 15 TO 22 INCHES...AGAIN WITH THE
HIGHEST TOTALS CLOSER TO LAKE MICHIGAN.

BLIZZARD CONDITIONS:
BASED ON THE AFOREMENTIONED ELEMENTS...AND MODEL CONSISTENCY WITH
RESPECT TO THE WIND FORECAST...HAVE UPGRADED THE BLIZZARD WATCH TO A
BLIZZARD WARNING FROM 21Z TUE TO 21Z WED. AT THE ONSET WE MAY NOT
HAVE GUSTS TO 35MPH...HOWEVER THEY WILL BE VERY CLOSE. SNOW WILL
START FALLING TUE AFTN AND PICK UP IN INTENSITY THROUGHOUT THE AFTN
HOURS. OVERALL CONDITIONS WILL STEADILY DETERIORATE THROUGHOUT TUE
AFTN...WITH WHITE OUT CONDITIONS FROM LATE TUE AFTN THROUGH TUE
NIGHT INTO WED MORNING. GUSTS FOR A PERIOD OF TIME COULD BE UP TO 50
MPH FOR PORTIONS OF THE CWFA.

COLD FRONT ARRIVES MIDDAY WED FROM WEST TO EAST...AND WILL BRING AN
END OF THE ACCUMULATING SNOWFALL. TEMPERATURES WED STRUGGLE TO WARM
OUT OF THE TEENS TO LOWER 20S. WIND CHILL VALUES WILL EASILY FALL TO
THE SINGLE DIGITS ABOVE ZERO WED DURING THE DAY AND ONLY BECOME
COLDER WED NGT.

BEACHLER

LONG TERM...WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY...

AS LOW PRESSURE CONTINUES TO PULL OFF TO THE EAST...SNOW WILL
DIMINISH PRETTY QUICKLY BY WEDNESDAY EVENING. BY WEDNESDAY EVENING
SURFACE THROUGH BOUNDARY LAYER WINDS NEARLY DUE NORTH BUT QUICKLY
TRANSITION TO NORTHWEST BY MIDNIGHT AND STRAIGHT WEST BY THURSDAY
MORNING. LAKE EFFECT SNOW WILL IMPACT MAINLY NORTHWEST INDIANA
WEDNESDAY EVENING AND SHIFT QUICKLY TO MICHIGAN OVERNIGHT...WITH
ONLY AN ADDITIONAL INCH OR TWO EXPECTED.

OTHERWISE CLEARING SKIES AND DIMINISHING WINDS AS ARCTIC HIGH
PRESSURE SPREADS FROM THE SOUTHERN ROCKIES/SOUTHERN PLAINS EASTWARD
INTO THE OHIO VALLEY. THE COLDEST POOL OF AIR WILL BE OVER NORTHERN
IL/NORTHWEST IN LATE WEDNESDAY. WITH CLEARING SKIES AND FRESH DEEP
SNOW COVER...EXPECT TEMPERATURES TO DROP TO THE SINGLE DIGITS BELOW
ZERO MOST AREAS...BUT SOME 10 TO 15 BELOW READING POSSIBLE IN
COLDEST OUTLYING AREAS...ESPECIALLY NORTH AND WEST. THIS WILL CREATE
WIND CHILLS OF -15 TO -25 WEDNESDAY NIGHT INTO THURSDAY MORNING. TOO
EARLY FOR HEADLINES NOW...BUT IF THIS PANS OUT A WIND CHILL ADVISORY
WOULD LIKELY BE NEEDED.

THURSDAY WILL BE DRY AND COLD WITH AFTERNOON TEMPERATURES STRUGGLING
TO GET OUT OF THE SINGLE DIGITS. GUIDANCE SHOWING FAIRLY STRONG WARM
AIR ADVECTION DEVELOPING THURSDAY NIGHT. WILL LIKELY SEE A
NON-DIURNAL TEMPERATURE CURVE...WITH LOWS OCCURRING EARLY
EVENING...THEN STEADY OR SLOWLY RISING TEMPERATURES OVERNIGHT.

A COUPLE CLIPPERS COMING THROUGH THE GREAT LAKES MAY BRING SOME
FLURRIES OR LIGHT SNOW OVER THE WEEKEND. THEN THERE APPEARS TO BE
POTENTIAL FOR ANOTHER ACCUMULATING SNOW ABOUT MONDAY OR MONDAY
NIGHT. STAY TUNED.

NO MAJOR CHANGES TO THINKING FOR LATEST FORECAST PACKAGE THOUGH DO
EXPECT SLIGHTLY STRONGER WINDS THAN ORIGINALLY ANTICIPATED FOR
TUESDAY NIGHT AND WEDNESDAY. LAKE MICHIGAN CURRENTLY UNDER EAST TO
NORTHEAST FLOW AS A RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE SITS NORTH OF LAKE
MICHIGAN. A LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM OVER SOUTH CENTRAL TEXAS THIS
MORNING WILL QUICKLY MOVE NORTHEAST TODAY REACHING CENTRAL INDIANA
BY MIDNIGHT TONIGHT. AS THIS LOW MOVES NORTH AND DEEPENS...WINDS
WILL INCREASE OUT OF THE NORTHEAST REACHING GALE FORCE BY THIS
AFTERNOON FOR THE SOUTHERN HALF OF THE LAKE AND BY TUESDAY EVENING
FOR THE NORTHERN HALF OF THE LAKE. WILL GO AHEAD AND UPGRADE THE
GALE WATCH FOR NORTHERN LAKE MICHIGAN TO A GALE WARNING.

WINDS WILL PEAK AFTER MIDNIGHT TONIGHT WITH STORM FORCE GUSTS TO
50-55KTS NOW EXPECTED. VARIOUS MODELS CONTINUE TO SHOW NEAR 50 KTS
OR GREATER THAN 50 KTS WITHIN A WELL MIXED BOUNDARY LAYER FOR ABOUT
A 12HR PERIOD LATE THIS EVENING INTO EARLY WEDNESDAY MORNING. HAVE
DECIDED TO UPGRADE TO STORM WARNING FOR SOUTHERN HALF OF LAKE AND
FOR THE ILLINOIS NEARSHORE ZONES AS WELL AS WESTERN LAKE COUNTY
INDIANA.

HEAVY FREEZING SPRAY LOOKS LIKELY ACROSS SOUTHERN LAKE MICHIGAN WITH
MODERATE FREEZING SPRAY ACROSS THE NORTH WHERE WINDS ARE SLIGHTLY
WEAKER. ICE...WHICH PUSHED OFFSHORE THIS PAST WEEKEND...IS EXPECTED
TO MAKE A RETURN TO THE COASTLINES AS NORTHEASTERLY FLOW INCREASES.
THIS MAY COMPLICATE FREEZING SPRAY FORECAST IN THE NEARSHORE ZONES
IF IT IS ABLE TO COMPACT...BUT BASED ON STRENGTH OF WINDS AND
MAGNITUDE OF WAVES IN THE FORECAST...THERE IS ENOUGH UNCERTAINTY IN
THE MATTER TO HAVE THE WARNING OUT.
