AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHICAGO/ROMEOVILLE IL
508 PM CDT THU JUN 28 2012

.DISCUSSION...
351 PM CDT

MAIN FORECAST CHALLENGES REMAIN BOTH IN THE NEAR TERM AND OVER THE
NEXT SEVERAL DAYS...WITH TEMPERATURE TRENDS AND PRECIP CHANCES
CONTINUING TO BE ISSUES WARRANTING CLOSE MONITORING.

IN THE NEAR TERM...THE MAIN STORY IS THE HEAT AND HEAT INDEX
VALUES CURRENTLY BEING REPORTED ACROSS THE CWA. WITH A VERY WARM
AIRMASS IN PLACE ACROSS THE REGION...TEMPERATURES HAVE SOARED INTO
THE UPPER 90S WITH SOME LOCATIONS REACHING THE 100 DEGREE MARK
OVER THE LAST COUPLE OF HOURS. TEMPERATURES HAVE BEEN ON TRACK FOR
MOST OF THE DAY...BUT WHAT HAS BEEN MORE SIGNIFICANT TODAY ARE THE
DEWPOINTS OUT AHEAD OF AN APPROACHING SURFACE TROUGH AND
ASSOCIATED COLD FRONT. AS WAS EXPECTED...MOISTURE POOLING OUT
AHEAD OF THIS SURFACE FEATURE HAS RESULTED IN A SIGNIFICANT
INCREASE IN DEWPOINTS WITH LOW TO MID 70S BEING REPORTED ACROSS
NORTHERN ILLINOIS AND EVEN SOME UPPER 70 DEWPOINT AIR BEING
REPORTED. THIS HAS RESULTED IN HEAT INDEX VALUES RIGHT AROUND 110
FOR MANY LOCATIONS IN THE CWA...WITH RELIEF COMING MORE TOWARDS
THE EARLY EVENING. STRONGER WEST SOUTHWEST FLOW OUT AHEAD OF THIS
SURFACE TROUGH HAS HELD THE LAKE BREEZE AT BAY TODAY...WITH NO
LAKE COOLING THUS FAR TODAY OUTSIDE OF FAR NORTHEAST LAKE COUNTY
IN ILLINOIS WHERE THIS BREEZE HAS FINALLY MADE SOME INWARD PUSH.
LATEST TIMING OF LAKE BREEZE AS WELL AS LATEST SHORT TERM
GUIDANCE....INDICATING THAT THIS BREEZE WOULD CONTINUE INLAND FOR
THE REMAINING PORTIONS OF NORTHEAST ILLINOIS BY THE 21-22Z TIME
FRAME WITH TEMPERATURES THEN FALLING IN THE 80S.

AFTER SOME COOLING TONIGHT POST FROPA...LOW TEMPERATURES IN THE
LOW TO MID 70S EXPECTED. ALTHOUGH A FRONT WILL PUSH THROUGH THIS
EVENING...TEMPERATURES TOMORROW ON THE BACKSIDE OF THIS SYSTEM
WILL NOT NECESSARILY BE TOO MUCH LOWER. 850 TEMPS IN THE RANGE OF
20-22C WILL BE EXPECTED TOMORROW WITH TEMPERATURES EXPECTED TO
RISE ONCE AGAIN BACK INTO THE 90S WITH UPPER 90S POSSIBLE ACROSS
THE SOUTHERN CWA...WITH LAKE COOLING KEEPING AREAS NEAR THE LAKE
IN THE 80S. THE MAIN DIFFERENCE ON FRIDAY WILL BE WITH THE SURFACE
DEWPOINTS WHERE DAYTIME MIXING WILL ALLOW FOR DEW POINTS TO FALL
INTO THE LOWER 60S AND UPPER 50S BY THE EARLY AFTERNOON. THIS WILL
HELP KEEP HEAT INDEX VALUES LOWER THAN TODAY BUT STILL IN THE 90S.
AN AREA WORTHY TO MONITOR WILL BE THE EXTREME SOUTHERN PORTION OF
THE CWA WHERE TEMPERATURES ARE EXPECTED TO BE THE HIGHEST. THE
FRONT WHICH WILL PUSH THROUGH THIS EVENING WILL STALL ACROSS THE
REGION TONIGHT INTO FRIDAY WITH DEWPOINTS SOUTH OF THIS FRONT
STILL STAYING AROUND 70. THIS COULD PROVIDE HEAT INDEX VALUES OF
100-105 SOUTH OF A LINE FROM FAIRBURY IN ILLINOIS EAST TO FOWLER
IN INDIANA. THEN FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE WEEKEND...THERE DOESNT
APPEAR TO BE ANY RELIEF IN SIGHT AS TEMPERATURES ARE EXPECTED TO
RISE INTO THE 90S BUT WITH LAKE BREEZE DEVELOPMENT EXPECTED TO
ALLOW FOR LAKE COOLING.

QUESTIONS STILL REMAIN FOR SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT
LATE THIS AFTERNOON INTO THE EVENING. THIS SIGNIFICANT WARMING
HELPING TO KEEP A CAP IN PLACE...LIMITING OVERALL DEVELOPMENT LATE
THIS AFTERNOON AS CAN BE SEEN LATEST RADAR IMAGERY WITH ONLY
ISOLATED SHOWERS NOTED. THERE DOES REMAIN AN OUTSIDE POSSIBILITY
INTO THE EARLY EVENING AS THIS TROUGH PUSHES THROUGH...WEAK MID
LEVEL FEATURE SHIFTS OVERHEAD...AND SOME WEAK COOLING ALLOW FOR
THE CAP TO BRIEFLY BREAK. ALTHOUGH CHANCES ARE DIMINISHING THIS
AFTERNOON...THERE DOES REMAIN A POSSIBILITY FOR THUNDERSTORMS
ACROSS FAR NORTHEAST ILLINOIS AND NORTHWEST INDIANA. WITH STRONG
INSTABILITY IN PLACE AND STRONGER WESTERLIES OVERHEAD...ANYTHING
THAT DOES DEVELOP STILL HAS THE POTENTIAL TO PRODUCE STRONG WINDS
AND LARGE HAIL. ANY CHANCES FOR THESE THUNDERSTORMS WILL DIMINISH
RAPIDLY INTO THE 7PM TIME FRAME THIS EVENING. AS A BOUNDARY WILL
REMAIN IN PLACE TONIGHT INTO FRIDAY AS WELL AS INTO THE
WEEKEND...THUNDERSTORM CHANCES ARE WARRANTED IN THE FORECAST.
DEVELOPMENT TONIGHT TO THE WEST OF THE CWA...COULD SHIFT EASTWARD
BY EARLY FRIDAY MORNING WITH SIMILAR SCENARIOS CONTINUING INTO THE
WEEKEND WITH THIS FRONT IN PLACE AND NORTHWEST FLOW USHERING IN
SEVERAL WAVES OF ENERGY.

.AVIATION...

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

* LAKE BREEZE TURNING WINDS NORTHEASTERLY WITH GUSTS UP AROUND 20
  KT OCCURRING AT ORD BY 2210 UTC AND MDW BY 23 UTC.
* WIDELY SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS POSSIBLY AFFECTING KORD BETWEEN
  2215 AND 2330 UTC.
* THUNDERSTORMS MAY AFFECT MDW AFTER 2300 UTC THROUGH EARLY THIS
  EVENING.

KJB

//DISCUSSION...UPDATED 22Z...
A FEW ISOLATED STORMS HAVE DEVELOPED ALONG THE COLD FRONT LAKE
BREEZE INTERACTION ACROSS NORTHEASTERN ILLINOIS. I EXPECT THAT
KORD WILL SEE THE STORMS FIRING OVER NORTHERN KANE COUNTY MOVE
INTO THE VICINITY. I HAVE PLACE A VCTS THROUGH 2330 TO ACCOUNT FOR
THIS AT ORD AND DPA. I WILL WATCH THE TRENDS OVER THE NEXT HOUR
TO SEE IF A VCTS NEED TO BE ADDED TO MDW.

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

A COLD FRONT IS PUSHING ACROSS NORTHERN ILLINOIS THIS AFTERNOON WITH
WINDS VEERING TO THE NORTHWEST AND TAPERING SOME IN THE FRONTAL
TROUGH. WEAKENING WINDS SHOULD ALLOW A LAKE BREEZE TO DEVELOP AND
PUSH INLAND ACROSS THE CHICAGO AREA THIS AFTERNOON OR EVENING
TURNING WINDS TO THE NORTHEAST...THOUGH TIMING IS STILL SOMEWHAT
UNCERTAIN. THE STRENGTHENING LOW LEVEL CONVERGENCE IN COMBINATION
WITH BROAD SCALE ASCENT ASSOCIATED WITH A SHORTWAVE PUSHING ACROSS
IOWA MAY ALLOW CAPPING INVERSION TO ERODE LEADING TO DEEP CONVECTION
OVER THE AREA. THE BEST WINDOW OF OPPORTUNITY APPEARS TO FALL WITHIN
21-00Z TIMEFRAME OVER THE CHICAGO AREA. GIVEN THE STRENGTH OF THE
CAP THOUGH...THERE IS A GREAT DEAL OF UNCERTAINTY ON THUNDERSTORM
DEVELOPMENT. SHOULD THUNDERSTORMS DEVELOP...COVERAGE SHOULD REMAIN
ISOLATED TO WIDELY SCATTERED MEANING THAT ALL AREAS WILL NOT BE
IMPACTED. GIVEN THE INTENSE INSTABILITY AND 40-50KT SHEAR VALUES...ANY
THUNDERSTORM COULD QUICKLY BECOME SEVERE WITH STRONG WINDS AND LARGE
HAIL POSSIBLE.

LATER TONIGHT...HIGH PRESSURE WILL BEGIN TO BUILD ACROSS THE REGION
WITH WINDS WEAKENING AND BECOMING VARIABLE. NO SIGNIFICANT
WEATHER IS EXPECTED OVERNIGHT. WIND DIRECTION IS A LITTLE
UNCERTAIN EARLY ON FRIDAY AS THE HIGH MOVES EAST ACROSS THE
AREA...BUT SPEEDS SHOULD BE FAIRLY LIGHT. THROUGH THE DAY EXPECT
WINDS TO TREND TO SOUTHERLY THEN SOUTHWEST AND INCREASE AS THE
HIGH MOVES AWAY...EXCEPT IN CHICAGO AREA WHERE A LAKE BREEZE MAY
KEEP WINDS EASTERLY. BMD

//ORD AND MDW CONFIDENCE...UPDATED 20Z...

* HIGH CONFIDENCE IN WINDS THIS EVENING.
* HIGH CONFIDENCE ON THUNDERSTORMS AROUND KORD THROUGH 2330 UTC.

.MARINE...
246 PM CDT

A COLD FRONT MOVING S DOWN FAR SOUTHERN LAKE MI AT MID AFTERNOON
WILL CONTINUE SLOWLY TOWARD THE OHIO VALLEY BEFORE BECOMING
STATIONARY ACROSS CENTRAL IL AND SOUTHERN IN FRI. A MODERATE NW
BREEZE WILL FOLLOW THE COLD FRONT TONIGHT BEFORE BACKING TO THE
SW DURING FRI AS A WEAK RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE DAKOTAS
AND UPPER MS VALLEY WILL WEAKEN AS IT SPREADS SE ACROSS THE
SOUTHERN LAKES REGION. WINDS WILL BE LIGHT SAT THROUGH MON NIGHT
WITH WEAK HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE WESTERN LAKES REGION. LOW
PRESSURE MOVES NE FROM THE DAKOTAS TO WESTERN ONTARIO MON AND MON
NIGHT THEN E ACROSS ONTARIO TUE AND TUE NIGHT. S TO SW WINDS WILL
INCREASE MODESTLY ON TUE AHEAD OF A COLD FRONT THAT WILL BE
MOVING THROUGH THE UPPER GREAT LAKES REGION LATE TUE NIGHT AND
