AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LINCOLN IL
649 AM CDT WED MAR 27 2013

.DISCUSSION...
ISSUED 303 AM CDT WED MAR 27 2013

SHORT TERM...TODAY THROUGH FRIDAY

LARGE AREAS OF STRATOCUMULUS ARE STILL AFFECTING THE CWA EARLY
THIS MORNING WITH SOME BREAKS WORKING IN FROM THE NORTHEAST. FEEL
THIS TREND WILL CONTINUE THROUGH MUCH OF THE MORNING. STEEP LOW
LEVEL LAPSE RATES AND BOUNDARY LAYER MOISTURE FROM SNOW MELT WILL
LIKELY LEAD TO RAPID REFORMING OF STRATOCU IN AREAS THAT DO CLEAR
OUT FOR A TIME TODAY. OVERALL PARTLY SUNNY SKIES AND LIGHTER WINDS
WITH SURFACE RIDGE AXIS MOVING IN. GRADUAL THERMAL MODERATION
CONTINUES AND MOST AREAS SHOULD SEE HIGHS BREAK INTO THE
40S...STILL AROUND 15 DEGREES BELOW NORMAL. QUIET WEATHER WITH
SLOW WARMING TREND THU/FRI AS THE RIDGE AXIS SLOWLY SHIFTS EAST
INTO THE LOWER GREAT LAKES AND OHIO VALLEY. WILL NEED TO WATCH
A WARM FRONT DEVELOPING OVER MO LATE THU AS MOST MODELS
SHOWING ENOUGH LIFT AND SATURATION FOR LIGHT SHOWERS NEAR THIS
FEATURE INTO FRIDAY. NAM IS ONLY OPERATIONAL MODEL SHOWING THIS
ACTIVITY FAR ENOUGH EAST TO AFFECT THE SOUTHWEST CWA...WHILE ALL
OTHER SOLUTIONS KEEP THE LOCAL AREA DRY AND WILL FOLLOW MODEL
CONSENSUS FOR NOW.

LONG TERM...SATURDAY THROUGH TUESDAY

A POTENT MID LEVEL TROF DIVING THROUGH SOUTHERN CANADA WILL SEND
TWO COLD FRONTS SOUTHEAST ACROSS THE MIDWEST THIS WEEKEND.
RELATIVELY MILD AIR STILL EXPECTED TO OVERSPREAD THE AREA WITH
HIGHS GETTING INTO AT LEAST THE LOWER 50S BOTH SATURDAY AND
SUNDAY. RAIN SHOWERS WILL ACCOMPANY THE INITIAL FRONTAL PASSAGE
WHICH WILL MOVE THROUGH THE CWA SATURDAY NIGHT/SUNDAY MORNING.
HAVE RAISED POPS TO LIKELY ACROSS THE NORTH SATURDAY NIGHT WHERE
BETTER DYNAMICS ASSOCIATED WITH THE MID LEVEL TROUGH WILL BE
LOCATED. THIS LOOKS TO BE A LIGHT/MODERATE RAIN EVENT QPF OF .1-.5
INCHES. SOME TIMING DIFFERENCES NOTED IN THE 00Z SOLUTIONS WITH
ECMWF NOW 6+ HOURS FASTER WITH FRONTAL PASSAGE WHILE GFS SLOWER
SHOWING A SFC LOW DEVELOPING ALONG THE BOUNDARY. WILL BASE
FORECAST ON MORE CONSISTENT SLOWER TIMING BUT MONITOR TRENDS
CLOSELY ON NEXT COUPLE RUNS. A SIGNIFICANT AIRMASS CHANGE WILL
OCCUR WITH A SECONDARY FRONTAL PASSAGE ON SUNDAY NIGHT. THIS WILL
SEND TEMPS CRASHING WELL BELOW NORMAL FOR MONDAY AND TUESDAY...AS
A CANADIAN HIGH BUILDS FROM THE PLAINS INTO THE UPPER MIDWEST. 850
MB TEMPS DIPPING INTO A -6 TO -10 C RANGE WILL SEND HIGHS INTO THE
LOW/MID 40S AND LOWS INTO THE 20S FOR THE BEGINNING OF APRIL. A
SERIES OF SOUTHERN STREAM WAVES WILL SHIFT EAST FROM THE PLAINS
THROUGH THE TENNESSEE VALLEY LATE MONDAY THROUGH MID- WEEK
SPREADING PRECIP BACK NORTH ACROSS THE SOUTHERN FLANK OF THE COLD
AIRMASS. MOST MEDIUM RANGE MODELS/ENSEMBLES SUGGEST HIGH WILL BE
STRONG ENOUGH TO KEEP THIS ACTIVITY SOUTH OF THE AREA AND WILL
KEEP THE FORECAST DRY THROUGH TUESDAY.

.AVIATION...
ISSUED 650 AM CDT WED MAR 27 2013

VFR CONDITIONS SHOULD CONTINUE ACROSS THE CENTRAL IL AIRPORTS
THROUGH 12Z/7 AM THU. SCATTERED TO BROKEN 4.5-7K FT CLOUDS WILL
