AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHICAGO/ROMEOVILLE IL
804 PM CDT SUN MAY 11 2014

.MESOSCALE DISCUSSION...
804 PM CDT

THE TORNADO WARNED CELL ACROSS CENTRAL NEWTON AND JASPER COUNTIES
IS FOR A RAPIDLY INTENSIFYING UPDRAFT WITH VERTICALLY CONSISTENT
AND STRENGTHENING ROTATION. THIS STORM IS AT THE VERY SOUTHERN
EDGE OF THE ONGOING CLUSTER/COMPLEX AND IS FEEDING ON 100-150 J/KG
OF 0-3KM CAPE...AND A MODIFIED RAP SOUNDING DOES INDICATE LIFT
FROM THE SURFACE ALONG WITH LOWERING LCLS FROM EARLIER ACTIVITY
FURTHER WEST AND NORTH. THE 0-1KM SHEAR IS SLIGHTLY MARGINAL AT 15
KT BUT INCREASING WITH THE STRENGTHENING LOW-LEVEL JET. IN
ADDITION...A FUNNEL CLOUD REPORT WAS RECEIVED FROM JUST NORTH OF
BROOK INDIANA AT 757 PM WITH THIS STORM.

MTF

&&

.DISCUSSION...
300 PM CDT

FORECAST CONCERNS ARE MAINLY ON THE IMMEDIATE SEVERE WEATHER
CHANCES THROUGH EARLY/MID EVENING. ALSO FOCUS ON THE SEVERE
WEATHER POTENTIAL ON MONDAY...PRIMARILY MONDAY LATE AFTERNOON INTO
THE NIGHTTIME PERIOD.

OVERNIGHT INTO MONDAY MORNING...
STRONG UPPER JET WILL PROPAGATE AROUND THE UPPER TROUGH LATE
TONIGHT INTO THE MORNING ON MONDAY AND WITH THAT LEAD TO FURTHER
AMPLIFYING OF THE UPSTREAM RIDGE...INCLUDING BUILDING HEIGHTS
ACROSS MUCH OF THE FORECAST AREA. MUCH OF THE FORCING FOR
RAIN/STORMS IN THIS PERIOD WOULD BE FOCUSED TO THE WEST AND NORTH
IN SUCH A PATTERN. THE STRONG LOW-LEVEL JET WILL AT LEAST IN PART
BE OVER THE AREA...HOWEVER THE NOSE OF IT WILL BE POINTED FURTHER
NORTH. CONVECTIVE CHANCES LOOK MINIMAL AND MAINLY THE NORTHWEST
FORECAST AREA TOWARD ROCKFORD. CHANCES MAY BE INCREASED SOMEWHAT
IF ANY ORGANIZED CONVECTION FROM THE CENTRAL PLAINS WERE TO
PROPAGATE EASTWARD INTO NORTHERN IL...BUT THE GRADUALLY MORE
MERIDIONAL FLOW AND ORIENTATION OF FORECAST CORFIDI VECTORS WOULD
PUSH MUCH OF THE CONVECTION NORTH OF THE AREA. LOW TEMPS WILL BE
BALMY WITH CONTINUED SOUTHERLY FLOW AND HIGH DEW POINT AIR...WITH
SOME PLACES EXPERIENCING SOME WARMING OF TEMPS LATER THIS
EVENING...ESPECIALLY THOSE IMPACTED BY EARLY EVE CONVECTION AND
THOSE COMMUNITIES NEAR THE LAKE SHORE THAT HAD AFTERNOON/EVE
COOLING.

MONDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH TUESDAY...
THE UPPER TROUGH WILL CONTINUE TO AMPLIFY AS THE UPPER JET TO ITS
FRONT AND BACK INTENSITY. A WARM AND MUGGY DAY IS ANTICIPATED
MONDAY. CONVECTIVE INHIBITION ON MONDAY AFTERNOON DOES LOOK TO BE
OVERCOME BUT A FOCUS IS NOT OVERLY EVIDENT IN OUR FORECAST AREA.
GRADUALLY MORE CONVERGENCE AND INCREASING DEEP LAYER MOISTURE AND
UPWARD MOTION IS FORECAST TO MOVE EASTWARD ACROSS MAINLY NORTH
CENTRAL ILLINOIS LATE IN THE DAY INTO EARLY EVE AND EASE ITS WAY
EASTWARD THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE NIGHT. THIS LOOKS LIKE A
PERIOD OF STORMS MOVING NORTHEAST WITHIN THE DEEP MOIST PLUME.
THE SEVERE POTENTIAL WOULD SEEM MOST FAVORED WITH THE INITIAL
CONVECTION IN THE LATE AFTERNOON/EVE AND THEN A GENERAL WANING
LATER INTO THE NIGHT. LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL WILL BE PROBABLE IN
SOME OF THESE STORMS AS THE PWATS ARE FORECAST TO BE AROUND 1.50
INCHES AND DEEP MOISTURE CONVERGENCE WILL BE ORIENTED PARALLEL TO
THE UPPER FLOW. THIS PLUME WILL SHIFT EASTWARD THROUGH TUESDAY
MORNING AND LIKELY POPS CERTAINLY SEEM JUSTIFIED TUESDAY MORNING. IF
THE FRONT IS SLOW ENOUGH SOME AFTERNOON ENHANCEMENT OF A FEW STORMS
COULD HAPPEN IN THE EAST...BUT THIS SEEMS MOST FAVORED EAST OF THE
FORECAST AREA AT THIS TIME.

THE COLD AIR ADVECTION WITH THE COLD FRONT...ALONG WITH POTENTIALLY
SOME ANAFRONTAL SHOWERS...WILL LIKELY LEAD TO FALLING TEMPS IN SOME
PLACES AT LEAST AT TIMES ON TUESDAY.

WEDNESDAY AND BEYOND...
LITTLE CHANGES MADE TO THIS PART OF THE FORECAST DUE TO ONGOING
HIGHER IMPACT WEATHER. LARGE MODEL DIFFERENCES EXIST IN THE WED-THU
TIME FRAME...WITH THE 12Z EC COMING IN SLOWER AND MORE AGGRESSIVE
WITH A LOW RIDING UP THE BAROCLINIC ZONE TO OUR EAST. THIS PROVIDES
WIDESPREAD SHOWERS WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH EARLY THURSDAY AND
PARTICULARY COOL TEMPS. WITH AN EC/GFS/GOING FORECAST BLEND THIS
PROVIDES A FEW PERIODS OF CHANCE POPS.

TEMPS TO LOOK TO BE BELOW NORMAL NO MATTER WHICH MODEL VERIFIES IN
THE WED-FRI TIME FRAME. IF CONDITIONS CLEAR AND SURFACE RIDGING
MOVES OVER...POSSIBLY THU NIGHT...THERE PROBABLY WILL BE A CONCERN
FOR FROST.

.AVIATION...

//ORD AND MDW CONCERNS...UPDATED 00Z...

* SHRA/TSRA THROUGH MID EVENING.
* WIND DIRECTIONS THIS EVENING.
* POSSIBLE MVFR CIGS MONDAY MORNING.
* STRONG/GUSTY SOUTHERLY WINDS MONDAY.
* POSSIBLE TSRA LATE MONDAY AFTERNOON/MONDAY EVENING. CMS

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

TSRA HAS CONTINUED TO CONSOLIDATE AND MOVE EAST. ADDITIONAL SHRA
WITH AN OCCASIONAL LIGHTNING STRIKE WILL CONTINUE FOR THE NEXT
HOUR OR TWO. THE BULK OF THIS ACTIVITY IS EXPECTED TO BE EAST OR
SOUTHEAST OF THE CHICAGO AREA TERMINALS BY 02Z-03Z AND HAVE
MAINTAINED SIMILAR TIMING/TRENDS FROM THE PREVIOUS FORECAST.
ANOTHER LINE OF TSRA OVER THE PLAINS WILL NEED TO BE MONITORED AS
IT MOVES EAST OVERNIGHT. CONFIDENCE IS LOW REGARDING HOW FAR EAST
THIS WILL MOVE BEFORE DISSIPATING. SOME OF THE SHORT TERM GUIDANCE
WOULD SUGGEST THAT THIS WILL MAKE IT INTO THE RFD AREA BY DAYBREAK.
INCLUDED A VCSH MENTION THERE BUT FURTHER EAST...MAINTAINED DRY
FORECAST AND TRENDS WILL NEED TO BE MONITORED THROUGH THE NIGHT.
LOW CONFIDENCE CONTINUES FOR PRECIP CHANCES THROUGH SUNSET MONDAY.
WHILE MUCH OF MONDAY LOOKS DRY...ITS POSSIBLE THAT ISOLATED TSRA
MAY DEVELOP ACROSS PARTS OF NORTHERN IL...POSSIBLY REMAINING NORTH
OF THE TERMINALS.

WITH THE LOW LEVELS NOW SATURATED...AS LOW LEVEL MOISTURE
INCREASES...THERE IS A POTENTIAL FOR LOW MVFR CIGS TO DEVELOP
OVERNIGHT AND PERSIST INTO THE MID MORNING HOURS. CONFIDENCE IS
NOT HIGH AND MAINTAINED SCATTERED MENTION FOR NOW.

WINDS WILL SETTLE BACK TO SOUTHEAST AROUND 10KTS THIS EVENING THEN
TURN MORE SOUTHERLY OVERNIGHT WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR SOME GUSTS
INTO THE MID TEEN RANGE. WIND SPEEDS/GUSTS WILL THEN STEADILY
INCREASE THROUGH THE MORNING WITH GUSTS INTO THE MID TO UPPER 20
KT RANGE FOR THE AFTERNOON.

LOW LEVEL WINDS NOW APPEAR LOW ENOUGH OVERNIGHT INTO MONDAY
MORNING THAT LOW LEVEL WIND SHEAR CRITERIA WILL NOT BE MET AND
REMOVED IT FROM THIS FORECAST. CMS

//ORD AND MDW CONFIDENCE...UPDATED 00Z...

* HIGH FOR SHRA/TSRA EARLY THIS EVENING.
* LOW FOR WIND DIRECTIONS THIS EVENING...MEDIUM FOR WINDS FOR THE
  REST OF THE PERIOD.
* LOW FOR MVFR CIGS OVERNIGHT/MONDAY MORNING.
* LOW FOR TSRA LATE MONDAY AFTERNOON/MONDAY NIGHT. CMS

//OUTLOOK FOR ORD/MDW FOR 12Z TUESDAY-12Z SUNDAY...UPDATED 00Z...

* TUESDAY...TSRA LIKELY IN THE MORNING.
* WEDNESDAY...CHANCE OF SHRA.
* THURSDAY...CHANCE OF SHRA.
* FRIDAY...SLIGHT CHANCE OF SHRA.
* SATURDAY...DRY/VFR.

&&

.MARINE...
242 PM...LOW PRESSURE OVER KANSAS WILL MOVE NORTHEAST TO LAKE
SUPERIOR TUESDAY MORNING. AS IT DOES...A WARM FRONT EXTENDING EAST
FROM THE LOW WILL MOVE NORTH ACROSS THE LAKE TONIGHT THROUGH
MONDAY NIGHT...SHIFTING EASTERLY WINDS SOUTHERLY. LOW LEVEL
MOISTURE WILL ALSO BE INCREASING AND AS IT SPREADS ACROSS THE
COOLER LAKE...AREAS OF FOG ARE POSSIBLE AND SOME OF THE FOG MAY
BECOME DENSE. CURRENT WIND SPEEDS ARE FAIRLY LIGHT IN THE 5-15 KT
RANGE AND WILL INCREASE INTO THE 15-25KT RANGE AND REMAIN THERE
UNTIL A COLD FRONT MOVES ACROSS THE LAKE TUESDAY MORNING. THERE IS
A POTENTIAL FOR WINDS TO BE A BIT STRONGER ON MONDAY...ESPECIALLY
WITH THE EASTERLY FLOW NORTH OF THE WARM FRONT ACROSS NORTHERN
LAKE MICHIGAN. THERE REMAINS UNCERTAINTY REGARDING THE POTENTIAL
FOR STRONG NORTHERLY WINDS WEDNESDAY NIGHT INTO THURSDAY AS LOW
PRESSURE DEEPENS MOVING NORTH ACROSS THE GREAT LAKES REGION. THIS
TIME PERIOD WILL NEED TO BE MONITORED FOR HIGHER NORTHERLY WIND
SPEEDS. CMS
