What was reported inside it

Time	Report	Where	Remark
Jul 6, 8:59 AM CDT	TSTM WND GST 56	Lawrenceville Airport, IL

Local storm reports filed while the alert was in force, from inside its polygon or its counties.

Did it verify

Not verified. The Iowa Environmental Mesonet's Cow found no qualifying storm report inside this severe thunderstorm warning while it was in force. That is not proof nothing happened: reports are thin where few people live.

Cow counts a report within 15 km of the polygon while the warning was in force: a tornado for a tornado warning; hail of 1 inch or more, a gust of 58 mph or more or wind damage for a severe thunderstorm warning; a flash flood report for a flash flood warning.

The nearest sounding before it

Lincoln, IL (KILX), launched 12:00Z, 2.0 hours before the alert went out and 183 km from the middle of its area. This is the routine balloon launch nearest before it, the air the forecaster had in hand, not a measurement taken for the alert.

Area forecast discussion, Jul 6, 5:45 AM CDT, 3 hours 12 minutes before

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Lincoln IL
545 AM CDT WED JUL 6 2016

.SHORT TERM...(Today)
ISSUED AT 335 AM CDT Wed Jul 6 2016

SPC issued a severe thunderstorm watch for our northern 18 counties
generally north of I-72 through 14Z/9 am this morning. Large MCS
with southern edge of a line of strong to potentially severe
thunderstorms was along I-80 and tracking southeast at 25-30 mph and
just north of Stark county. Also have small cluster of
thunderstormsover Edgar and southern Vermilion counties. Concensus
is for MCS to continue southeast track across central IL into mid
morning while gradually weakening during mid/late morning as low
level jet support it weakens. In addition to strong winds, heavy
rains and frequent lightning will occur with these storms. Have
increase pops this morning over central IL due to approaching MCS.
SPC day 1 outlook as slight risk across CWA today and tonight.
Expect atmosphere to destabilize again later this afternoon as more
scattered thunderstorms develop and have slight risk of severe
storms then as well. Temps rise into upper 80s to near 90F and
dewpoints in the 70s. This gives afternoon heat indices peaking in
mid to upper 90s.

.LONG TERM...(Tonight through Tuesday)
ISSUED AT 335 AM CDT Wed Jul 6 2016

Another MCS expected to develop tonight near central IL with another
round of thunderstorms and slight risk of severe storms along with
heavy rains and frequent lightning. Muggy lows overnight of 70-75F.
Another hot and humid day on Thu with highs 88 to 93F and dewpoints
in the 70s giving afternoon heat indices of 99-105F. Will be close
to heat advisory criteria Thu afternoon over sw CWA. Chances of
showers and thunderstorms continues Thu with increased chances Thu
night especially north of I-70 as yet another MCS to impact the area
and this appears to have slight risk of severe storms as well. A
vigorous short wave trof tracks into the upper MS river valley Thu
night and this drives a cold front southeast over central IL on
Friday with best chances of convection focused over southeast half
of CWA, while slight risk of severe is southeast of CWA. Another
very warm and humid day with highs in the upper 80s over central IL
and lower 90s from I-70 south. Afternoon heat indices Friday range
from lower 90s IL river valley to 99-103 from I-70 south.

00Z models continue to be quicker moving front southeast of IL
Friday night and have ended rain sooner, with just slight chance of
convection southeast of I-70 Friday evening. Weak high pressure
settles into the area on Saturday and this to bring dry conditions
over CWA most of the weekend along with a bit cooler and less humid
conditions. Highs Sat 80-85F and in low to mid 80s on Sunday.
Dewpoints mainly in the 60s this weekend, a break from the tropical
dewpoints in the 70s this work week.

Upper level ridging building back into the MS river valley early
next week to return heat and humidity by next Mon/Tue along with
some chances of showers and thunderstorms.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 12Z TAFS through 12Z Thursday morning)
Issued at 545 AM CDT Wed Jul 6 2016

MCS is bringing a large area of showers and thunderstorms
southeast at 35-45 mph toward I-72 at dawn. Thunderstorms already
arrived at PIA and BMI by 10Z, and nearing Lincoln and CMI at
1045Z and to reach SPI and DEC between 11-12Z. Visibilities could
lower to 1-3 miles in heavy rain along with MVFR ceilings 1-3k ft.
May also briefly have NNE winds 15-25 kts with gusts of 25-35 kts
with gust front from southern edge of MCS early this morning.
Latest HRRR and RAP models have been too way too far north with
this convection and used latest radar loops for near term aviation
forecast this morning. MCS is projected to weaken and showers and
thunderstorms to diminish during mid/late morning over central IL.
More scattered thunderstorms expected to develop after 20-21Z in
increasingly unstable tropical airmass and continue tonight.
Potential for more MCS development tonight, with one area over IN
and into eastern IL this evening and another area over IA into
western IL later tonight.
