AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LINCOLN IL
625 AM CDT FRI JUL 10 2015

.SHORT TERM...(TODAY)
ISSUED AT 321 AM CDT FRI JUL 10 2015

07Z/2AM SURFACE MAP SHOWS STATIONARY FRONTAL BOUNDARY EXTENDING FROM
NORTHERN KENTUCKY WESTWARD INTO KANSAS.  A CLUSTER OF SHOWERS WITH A
FEW EMBEDDED THUNDERSTORMS HAS DEVELOPED ON THE NOSE OF A 35-40KT
850MB JET STREAK ALONG THE BOUNDARY ACROSS CENTRAL MISSOURI.  THIS
ACTIVITY IS TRACKING E/NE AND WILL MOVE ACROSS THE SOUTHERN TWO-
THIRDS OF THE KILX CWA THIS MORNING.  BASED ON CURRENT TRAJECTORY OF
HIGHEST REFLECTIVITY ECHOES...IT APPEARS THE HEAVIEST SHOWERS WILL
IMPACT LOCATIONS ALONG/SOUTH OF I-70.  LATEST QPF GUIDANCE FROM WPC
INDICATES RAINFALL AMOUNTS OF AROUND ONE HALF INCH ACROSS THIS
AREA...WITH PERHAPS UP TO ONE TENTH OF AN INCH FURTHER NORTH TOWARD
THE I-72 CORRIDOR.  WILL CARRY CATEGORICAL POPS ACROSS THE SE
CWA...TAPERING DOWN TO A DRY FORECAST ALONG/NORTHWEST OF THE
ILLINOIS RIVER.  AS THE WAVE PUSHES INTO INDIANA...SHOWERS WILL COME
TO AN END FROM WEST TO EAST THIS AFTERNOON.  MAY EVEN SEE SOME
PARTIAL CLEARING FROM THE PEORIA AND BLOOMINGTON AREAS NORTHWARD
LATE THIS AFTERNOON...WHILE CLOUDY SKIES PREVAIL FURTHER EAST AND
SOUTH.  HIGH TEMPERATURES WILL THEREFORE BE WARMEST ACROSS THE N/NW
WHERE READINGS WILL RISE TO AROUND 80...AND WILL BE COOLEST ACROSS
CLOUD-COVERED EAST-CENTRAL ILLINOIS WHERE TEMPS WILL REMAIN IN THE
MIDDLE 70S.

.LONG TERM...(TONIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY)
ISSUED AT 321 AM CDT FRI JUL 10 2015

ONCE WAVE PASSES INTO INDIANA LATER TODAY...SHORT-WAVE RIDGING IN
ITS WAKE WILL LEAD TO A PERIOD OF DRY WEATHER ACROSS THE ENTIRE AREA
FROM MID-AFTERNOON THROUGH THE EVENING HOURS.  AS UPPER-LEVEL
RIDGING SLOWLY BUILDS INTO THE MIDWEST...THE STATIONARY FRONTAL
BOUNDARY WILL GET A PUSH NORTHWARD OVERNIGHT.  AT THE SAME TIME...A
45-50KT LOW-LEVEL JET ORIENTED FROM THE TEXAS PANHANDLE TO WESTERN
IOWA WILL TRIGGER ANOTHER MCS ALONG THE BOUNDARY...WITH MODELS
SUGGESTING THE MOST FAVORED LOCATION BEING ACROSS NEBRASKA INTO
WESTERN IOWA.  FURTHER EAST...WIDELY SCATTERED SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE POSSIBLE ALONG THE ADVANCING WARM FRONT.  WILL
GO WITH THE HIGHEST POPS ACROSS THE ILLINOIS RIVER VALLEY WELL AFTER
MIDNIGHT...WITH JUST SLIGHT CHANCE POPS FURTHER EAST TOWARD THE
INDIANA BORDER.

WARMER AND MUCH MORE HUMID CONDITIONS WILL ARRIVE SATURDAY AS THE
WARM FRONT LIFTS NORTHWARD THROUGH THE AREA.  MAY SEE A FEW SHOWERS
AND THUNDERSTORMS AROUND DURING THE DAY...ESPECIALLY ACROSS THE NW
CWA...BUT MAIN STORY WILL BE THE RETURN OF SUMMER-LIKE HEAT WITH
TEMPS IN THE MIDDLE TO UPPER 80S. MODELS ARE STILL SUGGESTING
ANOTHER NOCTURNAL MCS WILL DEVELOP ACROSS E/NE IOWA SATURDAY
NIGHT...WITH AN E/SE TRAJECTORY ACROSS NORTH-CENTRAL ILLINOIS.
STILL SOME UNCERTAINTIES CONCERNING THE EXACT EVOLUTION AND TRACK
OF THIS SYSTEM...BUT CONFIDENCE IS GROWING THAT THE NORTHERN THIRD
OF THE CWA WILL BE IMPACTED. HAVE THEREFORE GONE WITH LIKELY POPS
ALONG/NORTH OF A CANTON TO DANVILLE LINE. FURTHER SOUTH...WILL
MAINTAIN DRY CONDITIONS ACROSS THE FAR SE.

ONCE THE MCS PASSES TO THE E/SE EARLY SUNDAY MORNING...THE REMAINDER
OF THE DAY WILL BE WARM/HUMID AND LARGELY DRY.  SOME OF THE
MODELS...IN PARTICULAR THE ECMWF...ARE SUGGESTING THAT YET ANOTHER
MCS WILL FORM AND POTENTIALLY IMPACT THE AREA SUNDAY NIGHT...HOWEVER
THAT SCENARIO IS STILL VERY MUCH IN QUESTION.  HAVE RAISED POPS
ACROSS THE NORTHWEST HALF OF THE CWA ACCORDINGLY.

AFTER THAT...EXPECT WARM AND HUMID CONDITIONS WITH DAILY CHANCES FOR
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE EXTENDED.
UPPER RIDGING WILL BE CENTERED OVER THE SOUTHERN PLAINS...PLACING
CENTRAL ILLINOIS IN A NORTHWESTERLY FLOW PATTERN.  UPPER HEIGHTS
WILL BE QUITE HIGH...BUT THE RIDGE WILL NEVER BECOME STRONG ENOUGH
TO CAP THE ATMOSPHERE AND SHUT OFF CONVECTION CHANCES.  AS A
RESULT...LOW CHANCE POPS WILL CONTINUE THROUGH THURSDAY.

&&

.AVIATION...(FOR THE 12Z TAFS THROUGH 12Z SATURDAY MORNING)
ISSUED AT 605 AM CDT FRI JUL 10 2015

MAINLY MVFR CONDITIONS DUE TO WIDESPREAD HAZE AND FOG THIS
MORNING...WITH A FEW AREAS SEEING IFR VISIBILITIES. AN AREA OF
SHOWERS IS AFFECTING ROUGHLY KIJX-KCMI SOUTHWARD AND THIS AREA
SHOULD MOVE EASTWARD THROUGH EARLY AFTERNOON...WITH SHOWERS ENDING
WEST TO EAST AS IT DOES SO. TAFS INDICATE VFR VISIBILITIES
DEVELOPING OVER THE NEXT FEW HOURS...EXCEPT KDEC-KCMI WHERE
SHOWERS MAY LINGER UNTIL AROUND 18Z. CEILINGS AT KDEC-KCMI
EXPECTED TO LINGER AROUND MVFR THRESHOLDS THROUGH AFTERNOON.
