AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LINCOLN IL
827 PM CDT TUE APR 16 2013

.DISCUSSION...
ISSUED 825 PM CDT TUE APR 16 2013

UPDATED THE ZONE FORECAST ABOUT A HALF HOUR AGO TO ADDRESS THE
ONGOING SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE SOUTHEAST HALF OF THE
FORECAST AREA. FRONTAL BOUNDARY LIES JUST NORTH OF THE OHIO RIVER
THIS EVENING AND IS NOT EXPECTED TO MOVE BACK NORTH UNTIL TOMORROW
WHEN THE STRONGER UPPER LEVEY TROF STARTS TO EDGE SLOWLY EAST INTO
THE ROCKIES. VAD WIND PROFILES SHOWING LOW LEVEL WARM ADVECTION
PATTERN ALONG AND SOUTH OF THE BOUNDARY...WHICH WILL CONTINUE TO
PRODUCE SCATTERED SHOWERS AND STORMS OVERNIGHT AND INTO WED MORNING.
HAVE ADJUSTED THE OVERNIGHT WORDING TO ACCOUNT FOR MORE PRECIP ACRS
THE AREA THAN EARLIER EXPECTED...BUT OTHER THAN THAT...NO OTHER CHANGES
TO THE GRIDS WERE MADE.

SMITH

.AVIATION...
ISSUED 620 PM CDT TUE APR 16 2013

COLD FRONT HAS SETTLED TO JUST NORTH OF THE OHIO RIVER LATE THIS
AFTERNOON AND WILL GRADUALLY WORK ITS WAY BACK NORTH AS A WARM
FRONT ON WEDNESDAY. THIS FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL CONTINUE TO BRING
PERIODIC SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS TO THE FORECAST AREA THRU
TOMORROW RESULTING IN LOW VFR CIGS WITH TEMPO MVFR/IFR CIGS WITH
SOME OF THE HEAVIER SHOWERS AND STORMS. SFC WINDS TONIGHT WILL
REMAIN FROM A NORTHEAST TO EAST DIRECTION...AND THEN BEGIN TO
VEER MORE INTO A SOUTHEAST DIRECTION AFTR 18Z WEDNESDAY AS THE
WARM FRONT BEGINS TO APPROACH THE AREA. SPEEDS WILL RANGE FROM
8 TO 15 KTS TONIGHT...AND FROM 12 TO 17 KTS ON WEDNESDAY.

SMITH
&&

.PREV DISCUSSION...
ISSUED 300 PM CDT TUE APR 16 2013

MAIN CONCERNS WILL BE SEVERE WEATHER CHANCES AND FLASH FLOODING
POTENTIAL THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT. NO MAJOR DIFFERENCES IN THE
SHORT TERM MODELS THROUGH FRIDAY...SO DID NOT NEED TO MAKE ANY BIG
ADJUSTMENTS TO THE FORECAST. WE GENERALLY FOLLOWED THE AN
ECMWF/GFS BLEND FOR THE DETAILS.

DUE TO A CONTINUED INDICATION OF 3-3.5" OF RAIN ACROSS A LARGE
PORTION OF OUR COUNTIES BETWEEN TODAY AND FRIDAY...WE DECIDED TO
GO AHEAD WITH A FLASH FLOOD WATCH FOR ALL BUT OUR SOUTHEAST 8
COUNTIES. AREAS NW OF I-55 WILL RUN FROM 7 PM WED TO 1 AM
FRIDAY...AND AREAS SE OF I-55 WILL RUN FROM 7 AM THUR TO 7 AM
FRIDAY.

SHORT TERM...TONIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT.

THE COLD FRONT HAS SHIFTED SOUTHEAST OF OUR COUNTIES WITH A N-NE
WIND PATTERN ESTABLISHED ALL ACROSS OUR FORECAST AREA /FA/. THAT
NE LOW LEVEL FLOW HAS BEEN FUNNELING LOWER DEWPOINT AIR SOUTHWARD
BUT HAS ALSO BEEN INCREASING THE CONVERGENCE BELOW THE MID LEVEL
FRONTOGENETIC ZONE. THAT...ALONG WITH A 500 MB SHORTWAVE
INTERACTING WITH THE FRONT HAS HAS HELPED FUEL A LINE OF
CONVECTION THAT HAS SLOWLY PROGRESSED ESE TODAY. THE STORMS HAVE
BEEN TRAINING BEHIND ONE ANOTHER...QUICKLY PUSHING TODAY'S PRECIP
TOTALS UP NEAR 1 INCH. IN GENERAL...THAT AMOUNT OF PRECIP IS NOT A
MAJOR CONCERN...BUT IT WILL COME INTO PLAY WHEN THE MAIN SYSTEM
ARRIVES ACROSS W IL ON WED AND BRINGS MORE WIDESPREAD STEADY/HEAVY
RAIN AND STORMS THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT.

THE PROGRESSION OF THE COLD FRONT BACK NORTH AS A WARM FRONT ON
WEDNESDAY WILL TRIGGER ANOTHER WAVE OF SHOWERS AND STORMS ACROSS
MOST OF THE AREA...ESPECIALLY N OF I-70. AT 18Z TODAY...SPC
EXPANDED THE DAY 2 SLIGHT RISK TO INCLUDE NEARLY ALL OF OUR
COUNTIES EXCEPT FAR SE LAWRENCE CO. SO SOME OF THE STORMS THAT
DEVELOP MAY PRODUCE SOME LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING WINDS.

THAT FRONT WILL STALL OUT ACROSS OUR NORTHERN COUNTIES WED NIGHT
AS LOW PRESSURE IN THE PLAINS LIFTS ACROSS MISSOURI AND INTO
SE IOWA AND NW IL. THE HEAVIER RAINS ARE EXPECTED TO ARRIVE WED
NIGHT AS AN INVERTED TROUGH NORTH OF THE LOW PROVIDES AN ELONGATED
AXIS OF MOISTURE CONVERGENCE AND FOCUS FOR ISENTROPIC LIFT. THE
FIRST WAVE OF HEAVIER RAINS SHOULD MAINLY AFFECT AREAS W-NW OF
I-55 WED NIGHT...WHERE WE HAVE THE FLASH FLOOD WATCH STARTING AT 7
PM WED. THAT AREA WILL GET HIT WITH HEAVY RAIN POTENTIAL ALL THE
WAY UNTIL THURSDAY EVENING...WHEN THE SURFACE LOW FINALLY DEPARTS
INTO LOWER MICHIGAN AND DRAGS A STRONG COLD FRONT ACROSS IL.

TRAINING STORMS APPEAR LIKELY LATER WED NIGHT THROUGH THUR EVE AS
THE INVERTED TROUGH REMAINS RELATIVELY STATIONARY WHILE LOW
PRESSURE IN THE PLAINS DEEPS AND MOVES NORTHEAST TOWARD W IL.
LOCALIZED FLASH FLOODING MAY CAUSE ROADS TO BECOME INUNDATED WITH
WATER AND MANY SMALL CREEKS NEAR ROADS TO LEAVE THEIR BANKS AND
FLOOD ROADS. RIVER FLOODING WILL LIKELY COME INTO PLAY FROM THIS
EVENT AS WELL...BUT IN THE DAYS THAT FOLLOW THE HEAVY RAIN.

LONG TERM...FRIDAY THROUGH TUESDAY.

THE STRONG COLD FRONT WILL BRING A POTENTIAL PERIOD OF LIGHT SNOW
TO OUR N AND NW COUNTIES...MAINLY FRIDAY MORNING. PRECIPITATION
WILL BE MUCH LIGHTER AS MID LEVEL DRYING WILL PREVENT HEAVIER
PRECIPITATION RATES. SO ANY SNOW THAT DOES DEVELOP SHOULD BE LIGHT
AND JUST STICK ON GRASSY AREAS IF AT ALL. THE COLD POOL ALOFT AND
850 MB TEMPS NEAR -5C WILL LINGER ACROSS OUR FA ALL DAY...BUT
SURFACE TEMPS SHOULD CLIMB INTO THE LOWER 40S. THAT SHOULD HELP
CHANGE ANY LIGHT SNOW OVER TO RAIN FRIDAY AFTERNOON.

FREEZING TEMPS ARE STILL EXPECTED NW OF I-72 FRIDAY
NIGHT...ESPECIALLY IF THE CLOUDS CLEAR OUT AND THE WINDS BECOME
LIGHT. PRECIPITATION SHOULD COME TO AN END BY FRIDAY EVENING...AS
SUBSIDENT MOTIONS AND DRY AIR OVERCOME ANY CHANCE OF PRECIP.

SATURDAY WILL BE WARMER THAN FRIDAY...BUT STILL WELL BELOW NORMAL
FOR HIGHS IN THE LOW 50S. THE WARMING TREND WILL CONTINUE ON
SUNDAY AS SOUTHERLY FLOW REDEVELOPS AHEAD OF THE NEXT LOW PRESSURE
SYSTEM. LIGHT RAIN SHOWERS MAY ARRIVE AS SOON AS SUNDAY AND SUNDAY
NIGHT WEST OF LINCOLN. THE BETTER CHANCES OF RAIN SHOULD HOLD OFF
UNTIL MONDAY INTO TUESDAY AS SURFACE LOW PRESSURE OR AN INVERTED
TROUGH DEVELOP INTO WESTERN IL. THERE ARE MODEL DIFFERENCES ON
TIMING AND LOCATION OF THE LOW PRESSURE/INVERTED TROUGH...BUT A
GENERAL INDICATION THAT MOISTURE CONVERGENCE AND INSTABILITY WILL
INCREASE ENOUGH FOR PRECIP BY TUESDAY.

HIGHS ON MONDAY SHOULD CLIMB ABOVE NORMAL FOR THE FIRST TIME IN A
WHILE...WITH LOW TO MID 60S...BUT TUES MAY DIP BELOW NORMAL AGAIN
IF A COLD FRONT MOVES ACROSS THE AREA AS INDICATED BY THE ECMWF.
