AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHICAGO/ROMEOVILLE IL
654 PM CDT TUE JUN 21 2011

.MESOSCALE DISCUSSION...
515 PM CDT...

CLOSELY WATCHING MINI-SUPERCELL OVER BOONE COUNTY. ROTATION ON RADAR
THUS FAR HAS BEEN MAINLY CONFINED TO MID LEVELS...HOWEVER
ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS NOT UNFAVORABLE FOR TIGHTENING OF THE
MESOCYCLONE AND EVEN A TORNADO. CORE OF THE UPDRAFT FAIRLY LOW SO
HAIL THREAT AT THIS POINT IS STILL LOW SO NOT PLANNING AN AVR AT
THIS TIME. VERY LOW LCL HEIGHTS AND MODERATE LOW LEVEL SHEAR DOES
RAISE SOME CONCERN FOR STORM TO BECOME TORNADIC BEFORE CROSSING INTO
WISCONSIN AND WILL CONTINUE TO CLOSELY MONITOR FOR ANY SIGNS OF
INTENSIFICATION.

IZZI

404 PM CDT...
CLUSTER OF ELEVATED THUNDERSTORMS THAT MOVED ACROSS NORTHERN
ILLINOIS EARLIER FINALLY DID BECOME ROOTED IN THE BOUNDARY LAYER AND
BECAME SEVERE...BUT WAITING UNTIL CROSSING THE CHEDDAR CURTAIN INTO
WISCONSIN.

CIRRUS CANOPY DOES BLANKET MUCH OF THE CWA...BUT DESPITE THE CIRRUS
CAN SEE WHAT APPEARS TO BE SFC BASED CUMULUS DEVELOPING OVER
ESPECIALLY SOUTHERN AND WESTERN PORTIONS OF THE CWA. IN
ADDITION...WATER VAPOR IMAGERY SHOWS THAT THE SHORTWAVE TROUGH OVER
MISSOURI THAT WE'VE BEEN EYEING ALL DAY IS MOVING INTO WESTERN
ILLINOIS. ACARS SOUNDINGS OUT OF KSTL AT 1800 UTC AND ABOUT AN HOUR
AND A HALF LATER SHOW EVIDENCE OF SOME SYNOPTIC SCALE ASCENT WITH
COOLING/MOISTENING IN THE 900-800MB LAYER. CONTINUED LOW LEVEL MOIST
ADVECTION COMBINED WITH SOME ADDED SYNOPTIC SCALE ASCENT SHOULD BE
ENOUGH TO ALLOW ATMOSPHERE TO RECOVER FROM THE EARLY AFTERNOON
ELEVATED STORMS WITH MLCAPES POSSIBLY NEARING 2000 J/KG AGAIN BEFORE
THE AFTERNOON IS OUT OVER OUR WESTERN CWA.

SURFACE ANALYSIS SHOWS INTENSIFYING SURFACE MOISTURE CONVERGENCE
OVER WESTERN ILLINOIS CORRESPONDING TO EASTWARD MOVING WEAK COLD
FRONT. HAVE SEEN A RECENT UPTICK IN CONVECTIVE DEVELOPMENT IN THIS
REGION FROM NORTH OF STL TO NEAR GBG. ITS UNCLEAR WHETHER ATMOSPHERE
WILL DESTABILIZE SUFFICIENTLY FOR THESE STORMS TO BECOME
SEVERE...BUT AT THIS POINT THEY APPEAR TO BE THE PRIME POTENTIAL
CANDIDATES FOR MOST OF THE CWA. SHOULD DEEP AND SUSTAINED CONVECTION
FORM HERE DEEP LAYER SHEAR REMAINS SUPPORTIVE OF ORGANIZED AND
POSSIBLY EVEN SUPERCELLULAR STORMS WITH POTENTIAL FOR LARGE HAIL AND
DAMAGING WINDS...WITH FAIRLY IMPRESSIVE DEEP LAYER SHEAR.

ELSEWHERE...ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS ARE DEVELOPING OVER SOUTHEAST CWA
AND WITH VERY STRONG INSTABILITY IN THIS AREA SOME SEVERE POTENTIAL
COULD EXISTS DESPITE THE SOMEWHAT LESSER INSTABILITY. FINALLY...BOW
ECHO EAST OF STL COULD THREATEN OUR EXTREME SE CWA IN A FEW HOURS IF
IT MAINTAINS ITSELF.

SEVERE POTENTIAL IS NOT TREMENDOUS...BUT CERTAINLY DOES EXIST AND
WILL REQUIRE CLOSE MONITORING.

.DISCUSSION...
351 PM CDT

OVERNIGHT THROUGH LATE WEEK...

UPPER LOW ON THE SD-MN BORDER WILL CONTINUE TO BE THE MAIN FEATURE
CONTROLLING THE WEATHER ACROSS THE LOCAL AREA THROUGH FRI.

WHILE IT HAS LIFTED NORTH-NORTHEASTWARD FROM FROM FAR
NORTHEASTERN NE DURING THIS MORNING AND EARLY THIS AFTERNOON IT
WILL TURN TO THE EAST OVERNIGHT AS IT COMES UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF
THE PAIR OF CANADIAN UPPER LOWS OVER NORTHERN HUDSON BAY AND NEW
FOUNDLAND. AFTER CURVING TO THE EAST TONIGHT THE UPPER MIDWEST
UPPER LOW SLOWLY MOVES ACROSS WI WED AND WED NIGHT...THEN THE
WESTERN AND CENTRAL GREAT LAKES ON THU.

SHORT WAVES/DISTURBANCES WILL PERIODICALLY ROTATE AROUND THE UPPER
LOW AND ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA THOUGH EXACT TIMING QUESTIONABLE
BEYOND TONIGHT. DAYTIME HEATING NOW THAT WE ARE AT THE LONGEST
DAYS OF THE YEAR WILL LIKELY FAVOR MOST COVERAGE/GREATEST THREAT
OF THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE DURING THE AFTERNOONS AND EVENINGS OF WED
AND THU.

WHILE THE UPPER LOW IS PROGGED TO BE OVER SOUTHERN ONTARIO BY FRI
MODELS DO SHOW A COLD FRONT LINGERING BACK ACROSS THE AREA UNDER
CYCLONIC FLOW SHOW HAVE HELD ON TO A SLIGHT CHANCE OF SHOWERS FOR
THE DAYTIME ON FRI. COOLER AIR STARTS TO SPREAD ACROSS THE AREA
FRI ON THE BACK SIDE OF THE SYSTEM AS IT GRADUALLY WORKS ITS WAY
EASTWARD OVER THE GREAT LAKES.

HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING FROM CENTRAL CANADA AND THE NORTHERN PLAINS
LATER FRI AND FRI NIGHT WILL RESULT IN MOSTLY CLEAR AND DRY
CONDITIONS FOR THE LOCAL AREA AS THE CENTER OF THE ANTICYCLONE
SETTLES OVER THE UPPER GREAT LAKES. THIS HIGH WILL ALSO KEEP THE
REFRESHINGLY COOL TEMPERATURES OVER THE AREA THROUGH THE
WEEKEND...WITH SOME HELP OF WEAK DAY-TIME LAKE BREEZES.

//DISCUSSION...UPDATED 00Z...

THUNDERSTORMS FINALLY HAVE DEVELOPED SOUTHWEST OF THE CHICAGO
TERMINALS THIS EVENING AS A SHORTWAVE TROUGH PROPAGATES NORTHEAST
ACROSS CENTRAL ILLINOIS INTO EXPLOSIVELY UNSTABLE ENVIRONMENT.
MORE ISOLATED DEVELOPMENT OUT AHEAD OF THE WAVE MAY BEGIN TO
AFFECT CHICAGO BETWEEN 00-01Z HOWEVER MAIN LINE IS EXPECTED TO
ARRIVE BETWEEN 02-03Z THIS EVENING AT ORD/MDW...BUT CLOSER TO 01Z
FARTHER WEST AT RFD. VISIBILITY COULD BE REDUCED TO IFR IN THE
HEAVIEST SHOWERS...HOWEVER LITTLE IMPACT IS EXPECTED TO CIGS.
LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING WINDS ARE ALSO POSSIBLE. WINDS THIS
AFTERNOON ARE EXPECTED TO SLOWLY VEER FROM THE SOUTH TO THE SOUTH-
SOUTHWEST...REMAINING GUSTY TO AROUND 20KTS THROUGH SUNSET.

FORECAST DETAILS BEYOND THIS EVENING ARE A BIT MURKY STILL. DO
EXPECT A LULL IN THE PRECIPITATION OVERNIGHT AS THE SHORTWAVE TROUGH
PROPAGATES EAST OF THE AREA AND WE LOSE SURFACE BASED
INSTABILITY...BUT ANOTHER WAVE EJECTING AHEAD OF THE UPPER LOW EARLY
TOMORROW COULD BRING ADDITIONAL SHOWERS DURING THE LATE MORNING INTO
AFTERNOON TOMORROW. GUIDANCE SUGGESTS LOWERING CIGS OVERNIGHT AND
TOMORROW. FOLLOWED SUIT WITH THE FORECAST BRINGING CONDITIONS TO
MVFR MUCH OF THE DAY...BUT THERE IS POTENTIAL FOR IFR ACCORDING TO
MET/MAV GUIDANCE. WITH THE UPPER LOW LINGERING IN THE VICINITY
TOMORROW...COULD BE SHOWERS ACROSS THE REGION THROUGH THE DAY...BUT
NOT MUCH CONFIDENCE ON PRECISE TIMING OF WHEN THEY MAY AFFECT THE
TERMINALS.

159 PM CDT

LOW PRESSURE ACROSS IOWA WILL CONTINUE TO BE THE PRIMARY WEATHER
MAKER FOR THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS AS IT SLOWLY LIFTS EAST
NORTHEASTWARD ACROSS THE UPPER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY AND
ACROSS THE WESTERN GREAT LAKES BY LATE THIS WEEK. A WARM FRONT
...ASSOCIATED WITH THIS LOW...WILL SLOWLY LIFT NORTHWARD ACROSS LAKE
MICHIGAN DURING THIS PERIOD. WINDS WILL REMAIN SOUTH TO
SOUTHWESTERLY TO THE SOUTH OF THE WARM FRONT AND EASTERLY TO THE
NORTH. EASTERLY WINDS ACROSS THE FAR NORTHERN SECTION OF THE LAKE
WILL CONTINUE AROUND 25 KT TONIGHT. HOWEVER...AS THE LOW APPROACHES
AND MOVES OVERHEAD LATE WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY THE WINDS WILL BECOME
LIGHT AND VARIABLE ACROSS THE NORTH. WINDS WILL ALSO BE INCREASING
OUT OF THE SOUTHWEST ACROSS THE FAR SOUTHERN SECTION OF LAKE
MICHIGAN ON WEDNESDAY IN RESPONSE TO THE APPROACHING SURFACE LOW.
THE
OFFSHORE COMPONENT TO THE WINDS WILL LIKELY PRESENT THE ILLINOIS AND
INDIANA NEAR-SHORE WATERS WITH THE HIGHEST WINDS. THESE WINDS COULD
BE NEAR SMALL CRAFT CRITERIA.

THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TO BECOME MORE WIDESPREAD THIS AFTERNOON
AND EVENING.  THEREFORE...A FEW PERIODS OF STORMS WILL LIKELY AFFECT
MUCH OF LAKE MICHIGAN THROUGH WEDNESDAY.

HIGH PRESSURE WILL SETTLE OVER THE LAKE THIS WEEKEND. THIS WILL
BRING A PERIOD OF LIGHT AND VARIABLE WINDS INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK.
