Area Forecast Discussion
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LINCOLN IL
1127 AM CST Fri Feb 20 2015

.UPDATE...
ISSUED AT 1057 AM CST FRI FEB 20 2015
Developing storm system still on track for later this evening.
Small disturbance moving through the region bringing some light
snow showers/flurries. Returns are fairly consistent on
radar...but the reports are scattered. Temperatures still in the
teens in most locations at best...struggling to reach double
digits over the more dense snowpack to the south. Forecast highs
are doing well considering the slow advection of warmth into the
region from SW to NE into perpendicular flow out of the SE. Made
some minor adjustments to lower the general slight chance/chance
pop grids to better reflect the trends...but all in all, no major
updates necessary.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(Today)
ISSUED AT 331 AM CST FRI FEB 20 2015

Relatively quiet and cloudy weather expected for today as main
activity moves by to the north and a developing surface low
approaches from the southwest. First feature is a band of very light
precipitation in warm advection as a northern stream shortwave
currently over eastern ND approaches and moves by to the north.
Radar indicates very light precipitation over IA and western IL this
morning however given the dry air with dewpoints below zero seeing
very few reports of snow reaching the ground. Late in the morning
through early afternoon as conditions moisten up and the upper level
wave swings by, will see a chance of light snow, mainly north of
I-72. Amounts should be quite light, only a few tenths at most.
Meanwhile, a surface low will be developing over the southern Plains
and approaching central/SE IL from the southwest. Warm advection
ahead of the low will start to spread light snow toward southern IL,
and will see a chance of precipitation mainly south of I-72 by late
afternoon.

Highs will moderate somewhat for today, reaching the 20s, however
quite a bit of cold air will remain trapped below an inversion
aloft. Brisk southeasterly winds will develop today, with 15-20 mph
sustained speeds by late morning and gusts 25-30 mph.

&&

.LONG TERM...(Tonight through Thursday)
ISSUED AT 331 AM CST FRI FEB 20 2015

Will issue a winter weather advisory tonight and Saturday south of a
Rushville to Bloomington line for 2-4 inches of snow along with some
light ice accumulations near a tenth inch or less in southeast IL
from I-70 southeast overnight and Sat morning. Will also have some
light sleet accumulations south of I-72 tonight and Sat morning. 00Z
models have trended a bit further south with storm track along with
colder air and have trended forecast in that direction. Between 1-3
inches of snow likely along and north of a Rushville to Bloomington
line tonight and Sat morning.

Surface low pressure to develop over Texas panhandle this afternoon
and move into mid MS river valley by 18Z/noon Sat and and toward
southern Lake Erie by sunset Sat. Models develop light snow across
central and southeast IL during this evening from sw to ne and gets
mixed with sleet south of a Springfield to Terre Haute line and
eventually light freezing rain in southeast IL overnight into Sat
morning. Models continue to trend quicker with ending precipitation
during Sat afternoon and mainly lingering precipitation in eastern
IL between 18-21Z Sat and diminishing late Sat afternoon. Most areas
will be dry by sunset Sat with just a chance of flurries. Highs Sat
range from lower 30s north of I-72 to upper 30s in far southeast IL
where rain is possible Sat afternoon and to lower snowfall amounts
there due to some melting here Sat afternoon.

A northern stream short wave dives se into IA/WI and northern IL by
dawn Sunday keeping the brunt of its light snow north of central IL.
But colder air will usher into the region Sat night and Sunday and
linger into Monday. A wind chill advisory may be needed overnight
Sunday night into mid Monday morning for wind chills of 15-20 below
zero north of I-70. Arctic high pressure settles se into the mid MS
river valley Monday and east into ohio valley Monday night bringing
the bitter cold air back into the region.

Fairly strong low pressure drops se into the upper Great Lakes Tue
with a upper level trof digging into the region and could bring
chance of flurries to central IL. Temps modify to highs in upper 20s
to lower 30s Tue afternoon. Colder air ushers back into region
behind this system Tue night thru Fri and another clipper system to
bring chance of flurries Thu.

Climate Prediction Center (CPC) Day 8-14 outlook for Feb 26-Mar 5th
has IL in greater than 50% chance of below normal temperatures, so
winter cold looks to continue next 2 weeks.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Saturday afternoon)
ISSUED AT 1123 AM CST FRI FEB 20 2015
In the immediate short term, gusty south/southeasterly winds
sustained 15-20kts, gusting to 25kts through the afternoon. Mainly
VFR with some scattered drops just into MVFR with light snow
showers. However, overnight snow event deteriorating in the models
and worsening the forecast with each run. Have dropped visibility
and cigs this evening and overnight in the tempos with best guess
from high res models for moderate snow and at LIFR conditions.
Timing is extremely low confidence and forecast will be subject to
rapid changes in conditions.
