.MESOSCALE DISCUSSION...
347 PM CDT

CLOSELY MONITORING WEAK SUPERCELL MOVING ACROSS KANE COUNTY INTO
THE WESTERN SUBURBS WITH WELL DEFINIED BWER. LOW LEVEL SHEAR
REMAINS WEAK...THOUGH WITH SUCH LOW LCL HEIGHTS AND MODERATE DEEP
LAYER SHEAR CANNOT COMPLETELY RULE OUT A BRIEF TORNADO. UPDRAFT
INTENSIFIED AND CORE BRIEFLY SPIKED UP A BIT BUT GIVEN THE SMALL
SIZE OF THE STORM THINKING THE WIND DAMAGE THREAT IF ANY WOULD BE
VERY LOCALIZED. WILL CONTINUE TO CLOSELY MONITOR RADAR TRENDS FOR
ANY SIGNS OF AN INCREASED SEVERE THREAT...BUT FOR NOW
HAIL...WIND...AND TORNADO THREAT APPEAR TOO LOW FOR ANY WARNING.

GREATER POTENTIAL HAZARD FOR METRO AND POINTS WEST NEAR THE I-88
CORRIDOR WILL LIKELY END UP BEING THE HEAVY RAIN AND FLASH FLOOD
POTENTIAL ASSUMING THESE CELLS BEGIN TO FILL IN A BIT MORE AND
CONTINUE TO TRAIN.

.SHORT TERM...
255 PM CDT

THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT...

ATMOSPHERE REMAINS REMARKABLY FAVORABLE FOR VERY HEAVY RAINFALL
WITH VERY HIGH FREEZING LEVELS AND RECORD/NEAR RECORD HIGH PWATS
ALLOWING FOR WARM RAIN PROCESSES (TROPICAL-LIKE) TO DOMINATE. THE
RESULT THIS MORNING HAS ALREADY BEEN THUNDERSTORMS WITH EXTREME
RAIN RATES...IN SOME CASES OVER AN INCH IN LESS THAN 20 MINUTES.
ATMOSPHERE WILL CHANGE VERY LITTLE THROUGH THE AFTERNOON AND INTO
THIS EVENING...SO CONTINUE TO BE VERY CONCERNED ABOUT LOCALIZED
VERY HEAVY RAINFALL AND THE POTENTIAL FOR FLASH FLOODING. GIVEN
THE EFFICIENCY OF RAINFALL PRODUCTION AND EXTREME RAINFALL
RATES...ANY TRAINING OF THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY COULD RESULT IN A
SERIOUS FLASH FLOOD SITUATION DEVELOPING IN SOME LOCATIONS THIS
AFTERNOON INTO THIS EVENING. THE AREAS MOST SUSCEPTIBLE TO THIS
WOULD BE AREAS THAT HAVE ALREADY SEEN FLOODING IN RECENT DAYS
WHERE THE GROUND CAN TAKE NO MORE WATER AND ALSO IN URBANIZED
AREAS THAT CAN NEVER TOLERATE EXTREME RAINFALL RATES.

VISIBLE SATELLITE IMAGERY LATER THIS MORNING SHOWS SOME POCKETS OF
FILTERED SUNSHINE ALLOWING TEMPERATURES TO WARM INTO THE LOW/MID 80S
WITH DEWPOINTS IN THE LOW TO MID 70S. MODIFYING ILX'S MORNING
SOUNDINGS FOR CURRENT SURFACE OBS YIELD MLCAPE VALUES OVER 1000
J/KG NOW WITH NO REMAINING CONVECTIVE INHIBITION AND PWATS NEARING
2 INCHES. AREA VWPS SHOW DEEP LAYER OF 30-40KT WEST-SOUTHWESTERLY
WINDS FROM 850-500MB...WHICH IS RESULTING IN EFFECTIVE DEEP LAYER
SHEAR VALUES OF AROUND 30KT. WHILE DEEP LAYER SHEAR AND VERY WEAK
LAPSE RATES ARE NOT PARTICULARLY FAVORABLE FOR SEVERE WEATHER...WE
HAVE ALREADY SEEN SOME TRANSIENT OUTFLOW DOMINANT HP SUPERCELL-ISH
CONVECTION THIS MORNING. WITH SLOWLY BUILDING INSTABILITY...THE
THREAT DOES EXIST FOR SOME ADDITIONAL WET MICROBURSTS AND SMALL
BOWING SEGMENTS TO RESULT IN AN ISOLATED WIND DAMAGE THREAT THIS
AFTERNOON AND PERHAPS EARLY THIS EVENING.

ONE SMALL SCALE BOWING SEGMENT TRACKED ACROSS LEE...SOUTHERN
DEKALB/KANE COUNTIES LATE THIS MORNING AND HAS LAID OUT AN EAST-WEST
OUTFLOW BOUNDARY IN VICINITY OF I-80. SHOULD THIS OUTFLOW OR ANY
OTHER BECOME A FOCUS FOR CONVECTIVE DEVELOPMENT THIS AFTERNOON THE
THREAT OF TRAINING AND A MORE SUBSTANTIAL FLASH FLOOD THREAT WILL
GROW.

NOTE TO WSR-88D USERS: THE VERY HIGH EFFICIENCY OF RAIN IN THE
STORMS AND LACK OF HAIL IS RESULTING IN LEGACY PRECIPITATION
ESTIMATES ON THE RADAR TO BE RUNNING TOO LOW. USE SUCH PRODUCTS WITH
CAUTION...WE ARE UTILIZING THE DUAL POL RADAR ESTIMATES WHICH HAVE
BEEN PERFORMING MUCH BETTER IN THIS ENVIRONMENT.

.LONG TERM...
255 PM CDT

TUESDAY THROUGH MONDAY...

PRIMARY CONCERN FOR THE LONGER TERM FORECAST PERIOD WILL BE TRYING
TO DETERMINE WHEN AND HOW LONG THERE WILL BE SOME RELIEF FROM THE
SEEMINGLY PERSISTENT HEAVY RAIN POTENTIAL IN THE QUASI-TROPICAL
AIRMASS THAT HAS PERSISTED OVER THE REGION.  THE GENERAL LARGE SCALE
PATTERN WILL BE NEARLY ZONAL ACROSS THE NRN CONUS ALLOWING FOR A
SERIES OF SHORTWAVES TO TRACK ACROSS THE AREA...BRINGING PERIODIC
CHANCES FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS FOR THE LONGER TERM FORECAST
PERIOD.

MUCH OF THE REGION SHOULD SEE DRY WEATHER AS HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS
ACROSS THE UPPER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY AND INTO THE GREAT LAKES REGION.
 THE LEADING EDGE OF THE POLAR AIRMASS SHOULD SPREAD INTO NRN IL BY
EARLY TOMORROW AFTERNOON...USHERING IN LOWER DEWPOINTS AND FORCING
THE QUASI-TROPICAL AIRMASS TO THE SOUTH.  HOWEVER...THIS WILL ALSO
TURN WINDS NLY-NELY...BRINGING COOLER AIR ACROSS THE
AREA...ESPECIALLY ALONG THE LAKEFRONT.  TEMPERATURES TOMORROW SHOULD
TOP OUT IN THE UPPER 70S TO AROUND 80F...EXCEPT ALONG THE
LAKEFRONT...WHERE TEMPERATURES SHOULD ONLY REACH THE MIDDLE 60S.
ALSO...THERE IS A CHANCE FOR SOME LOW STRATUS AND FOG MOVING A SHORT
DISTANCE INLAND FROM THE LAKE.  ANY CHANCES FOR PCPN FOR THE AREA
SHOULD BE CONFINED TO LOCATIONS SOUTH OF A LINE ROUGHLY FROM
RENSSELAER TO PONTIAC.  BY TUESDAY NIGHT...PCPN CHANCES SHOULD BEGIN
TO CREEP BACK NORTH AS THE HIGH MOVES OFF TO THE EAST AND SFC
TROUGHING DEVELOPS OVER THE WESTERN PLAINS.  THE POLAR HIGH MOVING
OVER THE ERN GREAT LAKES WILL GRADUALLY MERGE WITH THE SUB-TROPICAL
HIGH OVER THE SRN CONUS...FORCING THE RETURN FLOW OF MOISTURE FRONT
THE WRN GLFMEX TO TAKE A LONGER PATH THROUGH THE CENTRAL
PLAINS...BUT WITH A WARM FRONT DEVELOPING ACROSS NRN MO THROUGH THE
OHIO VALLEY WILL SET UP ADEQUATE ISENTROPIC LIFT TO GENERATE SOME
ELEVATED CONVECTION.  THE HIGHEST POPS SHOULD REMAIN OVER THE SRN
PORTIONS OF THE CWA THROUGH THE NIGHT...SOUTH OF THE IL/KANKAKEE
RIVERS...WITH A LOWER CHANCE FOR SOME SCT SHRA/ISOLD TS POSSIBLE
SPREADING NORTH OF THE I-80 CORRIDOR.  BY WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON...THE
REGION WILL BE BACK IN THE WARM/MOIST AIRMASS WITH SFC DEWPOINTS
RISING BACK INTO THE LOWER 70S. THE ONE ELEMENT THAT WOULD LIMIT THE
COVERAGE OF TS OVER THE REGION ON WEDNESDAY WILL BE A SPLIT FLOW
WITH A NRN STREAM SHORTWAVE HELPING TO FOCUS PCPN OVER NRN WI AND A
SRN STREAM SHORTWAVE FOCUSING ACTIVITY OVER CNTRL IL/IN.
HOWEVER...THERE IS ENOUGH OF A SPREAD IN MODEL SOLUTIONS WITH
RESPECT TO THESE FEATURES THAT SOME PCPN CANNOT BE RULED OUT OVER
NRN IL/IN...SO HAVE PLASTERED CHANCE POPS OVER THE NRN CWA AND THE
LIKELY TO CATEGORICAL POPS TO THE SOUTH.

PERIODIC CHANCES FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL ALMOST BE A
DAILY OCCURRENCE THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE EXTENDED FORECAST
PERIOD.  THE ONE BRIEF PERIOD THAT LOOKS TO BE DRY WILL BE THURSDAY
NIGHT AS ANOTHER POLAR AIRMASS SPREADS ACROSS THE UPPER MISSISSIPPI
VALLEY AND GREAT LAKES REGIONS.  THIS DRY PERIOD SHOULD BE
RELATIVELY BRIEF AS THE UPPER LEVEL PATTERN WILL REMAIN RELATIVELY
ZONAL ACROSS THE NRN CONUS.  WHILE THE LONGER RANGE GUIDANCE REMAINS
CONSISTENT ON THE LARGE SCALE PATTERN...THE TYPICAL VARIANCES IN
SHORTWAVE TIMING INTRODUCES THE ELEMENTS OF UNCERTAINTY TO THE
FORECAST...WITH THE MAIN TREND BEING FOR PERIODS OF SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS FROM FRIDAY...THROUGH THE WEEKEND AND INTO EARLY NEXT
WEEK.  THERE WILL BE DRY PERIODS AS WELL...AND WHILE THE FORECAST
SOUNDS LIKE A WASHOUT FOR THE ENTIRE PERIOD...THERE SHOULD BE
PERIODS OF DRY WEATHER AS WELL.  IT IS JUST THE TIMING THAT IS THE
BIGGEST QUESTION MARK.

.AVIATION...

//ORD AND MDW CONCERNS...UPDATED 20Z...

* MULTI-HOUR TSRA WITH TEMPORARY IFR CONDITIONS LIKELY THIS
  AFTERNOON INTO THE EVENING. NUMEROUS TO WIDESPREAD COVERAGE OF
  STORMS IN THE TRACON AREA FAVORED.

* VARIABLE CIGS THROUGH THE AFTERNOON WITH TEMPORARY MVFR
  POSSIBLE...MAINLY OUTSIDE OF HEAVIER SHRA/TSRA.

* VARIABLE WINDS NEAR TSRA.

* WINDS BECOMING NORTHEAST NEAR SUNRISE TUESDAY WITH POSSIBLE LOW
  CLOUDS.

KJB

//DISCUSSION...UPDATED 18Z...

IT WILL CONTINUE TO BE A RATHER MESSY AVIATION WEATHER DAY ACROSS THE
AREA AS A COLD FRONT APPROACHES THE AREA FROM THE NORTHWEST.

A VERY MOIST ATMOSPHERE WILL CONTINUE TO ALLOW SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS TO DEVELOP THROUGH THE AFTERNOON. THEREFORE...THUNDER
IS POSSIBLE AT ANY TIME THROUGH MUCH OF THE AFTERNOON IN THIS MESSY
WEATHER PATTERN. EXTREMELY HEAVY RAIN OF 1 TO 2 INCHES PER HOUR IS
LIKELY WITH THESE STORMS GIVEN THE VERY HIGH MOISTURE CONTENT OF THE
PREFRONTAL AIRMASS. VISIBILITIES IN THIS HEAVY RAIN COULD EASILY
FALL UNDER A MILE FOR BRIEF PERIODS THROUGH THE AFTERNOON. ALTHOUGH
A SHORT BREAK IN THE ACTIVITY WILL OCCUR FOLLOWING THE CURRENT AREA
OF THUNDERSTORMS...IT APPEARS THAT ADDITIONAL STORMS WILL DEVELOP
AND IMPACT THE TERMINALS BY MID AFTERNOON. SEVERAL HOURS OF
THUNDERSTORMS WITH HEAVY RAINFALL ARE LIKELY OVER THE TERMINALS
FROM MID AFTERNOON THROUGH EARLY THIS EVENING.

FOLLOWING THE COLD FRONTAL PASSAGE EARLY THIS EVENING...THE SHOWERS
AND STORMS WILL GRADUALLY SHIFT SOUTH OF THE TERMINALS. WINDS WILL
BECOME NORTHERLY THROUGH THE EVENING...THEN NORTHEASTERLY BY TUESDAY
MORNING. SOME LOW CIGS COULD IMPACT THE EASTERN TERMINALS AROUND DAY
BREAK TUESDAY AS THE FLOW TURNS OFF OF LAKE MICHIGAN.
HOWEVER...THESE LOWER CIGS SHOULD IMPROVE THROUGH THE MORNING AS
DRIER AIR WORKS IN OVER THE AREA.

KJB

//ORD AND MDW CONFIDENCE...UPDATED 20Z...

* HIGH THAT TSRA WILL CONTINUE TO IMPACT THE AIRFIELDS BETWEEN MID
  AFTERNOON AND MID-EVE. MEDIUM-HIGH IN TSRA BEING A SEVERAL HOUR
  DURATION. MEDIUM ON SPECIFIC WINDOW OF TIME.

* MEDIUM-HIGH ON WINDS REMAINING FROM THE WEST THROUGH THIS
  EVENING APART FROM NEAR STORMS.

* MEDIUM-HIGH IN WIND SHIFT TIMING TO NORTH-NORTHEAST.

* LOW ON EXTENT AND DURATION OF LOW CIGS ON TUESDAY MORNING.

KJB

//OUTLOOK FOR ORD/MDW FOR 00Z WEDNESDAY-12Z MONDAY...UPDATED 12Z...

TUESDAY NIGHT...SLIGHT CHANCE OF SHRA LATE. NORTHEAST WINDS.
WEDNESDAY...CHANCE OF TSRA. SOUTH WINDS.
THURSDAY...CHANCE OF TSRA. WEST WINDS.
FRIDAY...SLIGHT CHANCE OF TSRA. EAST WINDS.
SATURDAY-SUNDAY...CHANCE OF TSRA. SOUTHWEST WINDS.

MTF

&&

.MARINE...
305 PM CDT

THE PATTERN WILL REMAIN STEADILY PROGRESSIVE THROUGH THE
PERIOD...WITH PERIODIC CHANCES FOR THUNDERSTORMS AND A COUPLE
FRONTAL PASSAGES THAT WILL BRING CHANGES TO WIND DIRECTION.

FOR THE REMAINDER OF THIS AFTERNOON AND INTO EARLY THIS
EVENING...SWLY FLOW AHEAD OF A COLD FRONT WILL CONTINUE TO DRAW
WARM...MOIST AIR ACROSS THE COLDER LAKE WATERS...KEEPING AREAS OF
DENSE FOG OVER THE LAKE. THE FIRST FRONTAL PASSAGE WILL OCCUR
OVERNIGHT TONIGHT...VEERING WINDS TO NLY OVER MUCH OF THE OPEN
WATERS AND MORE NELY OVER THE NEARSHORE WATERS. THE COLD FRONT IS
RELATIVELY WEAK AND DO NOT EXPECT MUCH OF AN INCREASE IN WINDS
WITH THE FROPA...10-15 TO 10-20 KT. HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD IN
BEHIND THE FRONT...ALLOWING WINDS TO DROP OFF...BEFORE BECOMING
MORE SELY-SLY AS THE HIGH MOVES OFF TO THE EAST ON WEDNESDAY. A
WEAK GRADIENT WILL SET UP ACROSS THE GREAT LAKES UNTIL THE NEXT
WEAK COLD FRONT MOVES ACROSS THE LAKE. RELATIVELY WEAK WINDS BUT
PERIODS OF SHOWERS OR THUNDERSTORMS ARE LIKELY FOR THE LAKE
THROUGH THURSDAY WITH THE NEXT FROPA EXPECTED THURSDAY NIGHT OR
EARLY FRIDAY. ANOTHER AREA OF HIGH PRESSURE WILL MOVE ACROSS THE
LAKES FRIDAY AND PUSHING OFF TO NEW ENGLAND FRIDAY NIGHT. THIS
WILL THEN SET UP ANOTHER ROUND OF ACTIVE WEATHER. THE LONGER RANGE
MODEL GUIDANCE SUGGESTS THAT AS THE HIGH MOVES OFF THE NEW ENGLAND
COAST SATURDAY...A DEEPER LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL APPROACH THE
UPPER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY AND WESTERN GREAT LAKES...SETTING UP A
STRONGER SLY GRADIENT OVER THE LAKE AND WINDS COULD INCREASE TO 20
TO 25 KT.
