AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE QUAD CITIES IA IL
618 AM CDT SAT JUN 22 2013

.SYNOPSIS...
ISSUED AT 335 AM CDT SAT JUN 22 2013

STRENGTHENING UPPER LEVEL RIDGE OVER THE AREA IS KEEPING MOST OF THE
CONVECTION NORTH OF THE CWA THIS EARLY MORNING. A SOUTHWARD SURGE IN
THE LINE OF THUNDERSTORMS IS NOTED ACROSS PARTS OF NORTHERN
ILLINOIS WHICH WILL MOVE INTO EASTERN PARTS OF THE CWA.  WIND GUSTS
OF 30 TO 45 MPH AND HEAVY RAIN WILL ACCOMPANY THIS STORMS.
ELSEWHERE...SKIES ARE GENERALLY CLEAR WITH TEMPERATURES IN THE UPPER
60S TO LOWER 80S.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(TODAY AND TONIGHT)
ISSUED AT 335 AM CDT SAT JUN 22 2013

MAIN CONCERN IN THE SHORT TERM IS THE MORNING CONVECTION AND HEAT.

MODELS CONTINUE TO HANDLE THE GOING SITUATION POORLY.  THIS
MORNING...THUNDERSTORMS CLIPPING THE NORTHEAST PART OF THE CWA ATTM
WILL GRADUALLY WEAKEN...BUT NOT BEFORE BRINGING SOME HEAVY RAINS
TO PARTS OF NORTHWEST ILLINOIS...MAINLY STEPHENSON COUNTY.  WILL
KEEP DIMINISHING POPS GENERALLY NORTH OF HIGHWAY 30 THROUGH LATE
MORNING.  THIS WILL NEED TO BE MONITORED CLOSELY.  THIS AFTERNOON...
VERY WARM/HOT AND HUMID CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED WITH SLIGHT CHANCES
FOR THUNDERSTORMS LINGERING ACROSS THE EAST PART OF THE CWA.  HIGHS
WILL TOP OUT IN THE UPPER 80S AND LOWER 90S...WITH HEAT INDEX VALUES
IN THE MID 90S TO NEAR 100 ACROSS MUCH OF THE AREA.  HAVE KEPT
AFTERNOON DEW POINTS IN THE LOWER 70S. IF THEY RISE TO 74/75 DEGREES
OR MORE WILL NEED TO MONITOR HEAT INDEX VALUES. TONIGHT...OPTED TO
GO DRY ACROSS THE AREA...HOWEVER THERE IS A LOW END CHANCE FOR SOME
DEVELOPMENT ACROSS THE EAST AGAIN.

14

.LONG TERM...(SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY)
ISSUED AT 310 AM CDT SAT JUN 22 2013

SUMMERTIME HEAT AND HUMIDITY WITH DAILY CHANCES OF THUNDERSTORMS
INTO THURSDAY...THEN A NICE COOL DOWN.

OVERVIEW...VERY POOR PERFORMANCE OF ALL SOLUTIONS ON PRECIPITATION
WITH AMERICAN MODELS NOT USABLE. FORCING PROFILES OF HI-RES ECMWF
AND UKMET ARE MARGINALLY ADEQUATE. THIS PORTENDS INCREASING POPS
SUNDAY INTO SUNDAY NIGHT AND THEN RISK OF DAILY EPISODES OF MCS
EVENTS. VERIFICATION ALSO INDICATES DEW POINTS ARE A FEW DEGREES
TOO HIGH WITH 68-72 DEGREES SUGGESTED...EXCEPT LOWER IN COOL POOLS
FROM CONVECTIVE EVENTS. HIGH PW/S AND WEAK ZONAL FORCING SUPPORT
LOCALLY HEAVY RAINS POSSIBLE ALONG WITH PULSE LOWER END SEVERE
RISK AS WELL OF WINDS AND HAIL.

SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY...CONSISTENT PATTERN OF LOTS OF HEAT AND
HUMIDITY AND LIGHT TO MODERATE SOUTH WINDS. PATTERN IS QUITE
FAVORABLE WITH EPISODES OF CONVECTION DUE TO WEAK PASSING UPPER
DISTURBANCES. POOR CONFIDENCE ON TIMING AS COOL OUTFLOWS WILL
IMPACT SUBSEQUENT CONVECTION EACH DAY. HENCE...PREFER 30 TO 50
POPS EACH DAY FOR LATER SHIFTS TO RECONSIDER. HIGHS SHOULD RANGE IN THE
UPPER 80S TO LOWER 90S EXCEPT POTENTIALLY LOWER FOR LATER SHIFTS
TO RECONSIDER WITH LARGE MCS CLOUDS AND COOL POOLS IN IMPACTED
LOCATIONS. SIMILAR TO WHAT OCCURRED FRIDAY OVER AREA. LOWS MAY
NEED TRIMMING INTO THE MID TO UPPER 60S IN AREAS THAT ALSO HAVE
CONVECTION. LIKELY MOST AREAS TO EXPERIENCE AT LEAST A COUPLE OF
CONVECTIVE EVENTS BY THURSDAY WITH VARIED RAIN TOTALS OF .5 TO 2
PLUS INCHES. COLD FRONT ON THURSDAY APPEARS WILL BE HAVE LIMITED
FORCING ALOFT AND MOST CONVECTION IN MORNING HOURS LIMITING
WIDESPREAD SEVERE WEATHER RISKS AT THIS TIME TO MORE ISOLATED AND
LOWER END.

FRIDAY...CANADIAN HIGH PRESSURE TO BRING IN COOLER AND DRIER TEMPS
AND DEW POINTS. LATER SHIFTS MAY BE ABLE TO TRIM A FEW MORE DEGREES
OFF HIGHS WITH SOME UPPER 70S SUGGESTED IN NORTH SECTIONS. MINS ALSO MAY
NEED LOWERING WITH SOME UPPER 50 DEGREE READINGS. THESE BELOW NORMAL
TEMPERATURES LIKELY TO LAST INTO NEXT WEEKEND.

.AVIATION...(FOR THE 12Z TAFS THROUGH 12Z SUNDAY MORNING)
ISSUED AT 618 AM CDT SAT JUN 22 2013

THIS MORNING...WITH CIGS AROUND 2000 FT AND VISIBILITIES 1 TO 2 SM
WITH HEAVY RAIN. VICINITY SHOWERS AND STORMS IN THE MLI AND BRL
TAFS ALSO THROUGH THE MORNING HOURS. EXPECT CURRENT CONVECTION
OVER NW ILLINOIS TO DIMINISH WHILE ACTIVITY NW OF CID MAY STRENGTHEN
AND SWEEP EASTWARD ACROSS DBQ AND POSSIBLY MLI TERMINALS. GENERAL
DIMINISHING/CLEARING TREND AFTER 16Z...WITH MAINLY VFR CONDINTIONS.
