Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Chicago/Romeoville, IL
220 PM CST Fri Nov 18 2016

.SHORT TERM...
205 PM CST

Through Tonight...

Concern in the near term is potential for strong storms in our
southeastern counties, and on gusty winds expected this afternoon
and through at least the morning on Saturday. There will likely
also be some snow flurries overnight into Saturday morning.

For our northern and western areas, this current batch of showers
should largely exit eastward with a batch of isolated showers
right along the cold frontal boundary leading edge. Winds shift to
WSW and will be gusting to 40 and even 45 mph right with and
behind the front, and we are seeing 40 mph gusts at RPJ (Rochelle)
and Peru (VYS) with gusts to 43 mph at the Mississippi River.

There is a batch of more organized showers and some storms across
Central Illinois in the warm moist axis where dewpoints are in
the upper 50s to lower 60s We do still expect this activity to
move northeast and likely continue/increase in coverage into the
I-55 corridor and eastward as the confined upper forcing and cold
front forcing approach, along with increased forcing expected with
the area under the left entrance region of a strong upper level
jet. Given the strong wind field any showers and storms this
afternoon could produce strong winds. There is still a low tornado
risk given the strength of the low level forcing and 0-1km wind
shear. This would be favored in the Southeast where low LCLs are
occurring in the moist axis ahead of the front, though the strong
winds are the highest concern at the moment.

Earlier in the shift we issued a wind advisory for the entire
area beginning with and just behind the cold front later this afternoon.
There will likely be a surge of winds with and just behind the
front through the afternoon and evening with a decent initial
pressure rise and onset of cold advection. Top of the channel
winds at least for a few hour period get into the 45 kt range and
sustained winds are already hitting above 30 mph in our western
counties. Top of the channel winds then hold at around 35-40 kt
later tonight into early Saturday. Feeling is that with the
unidirectional wind component and strong cold advection that these
higher winds will be obtained despite raw guidance being a bit
lower and the better pressure couplet to our north. Our northern
tier may be more favored for the higher speeds.

The column cooling behind the front will support any light
precipitation in the wrap around to be in the form of snow for
most areas late tonight. Accumulations are not expected, with
coverage also not expected to be widespread, but flurries seem a
good bet overnight into early Saturday. Any stronger showers could
produce some brief light dustings on the grass, favored north.

KMD

&&

.LONG TERM...
218 PM CST

Saturday through Friday...

Main forecast concerns/challenges are with persistent strong
winds Saturday morning as well as potential for lingering precip,
likely snow, for a portion of Saturday primarily across northwest
Indiana.

Soundings early morning on Saturday will be supportive of all
snow as precip axis on the backside of this system swings through
the area. Still some lower confidence on coverage during this time
but several waves traversing cyclonic flow overhead will be
supportive of at least some scattered light snow showers across
the eastern half of the CWA. As this shifts to the east through
mid morning, focus for any additional precip during the day into
Saturday evening will be for lake effect showers into northwest
Indiana. High delta Ts and decent inversion heights over the lake
lend support for this development especially with synoptic lift
still overhead. However, primary focus will mainly be over Lake
and Porter county Indiana, and then focus more into Porter before
shifting to the east of the CWA later in the day. Snow will likely
be the initial favored precip type, but with some slight warming
during the day as well as warmer temps over the lake, a rain snow
mix will more than likely be observed. With this potential for a
rain snow mix and warm surface temps, not expecting much in terms
of any accumulation.

Strong westerly winds will still be an issue across the entire
CWA with the current wind advisory in place definitely still
valid. Most guidance fairly consistent with overall wind trends on
Saturday and while the speeds will already be strong in the
morning, there will likely be another surge of momentum into the
mid morning period. It's likely that the strongest winds today
into Saturday will occur early Saturday morning with higher
chances for gusts to really get into that 45-50 KT range. Will
definitely need to monitor the early morning period for the
potential for these stronger winds. Speeds still anticipated to
diminish later in the afternoon, and then more so into Saturday
evening. Slightly elevated sustained winds will still likely keep
a steady northwest wind in place Saturday night and with temps
falling to the low to mid 20s, rather low wind chills are still
expected. Dry conditions still expected into early next week until
next system arrives more towards mid week. Still anticipating all
rain with this next system. However, ahead of it on Tuesday
morning, there is a low potential for an initial rain snow mix
across northern Illinois. Also, on the backside, any lingering
precip would have some potential to be frozen. At this time
though, soundings look rather dry.

Rodriguez

&&

.AVIATION...
For the 18Z TAFs...

Concerns center around strong winds/wind directions and overnight
largely non-accumulating snow showers. Showers and maybe a few
isolated thunderstorms remain an additional near term concern this
afternoon.

Forecast and AMDAR soundings depict a lower level inversion
holding into the early afternoon which is keeping a lid on the
SSW wind speeds ahead of the approaching cold front. Some of the
instability has also initially been lost with the morning line of
showers and storms. IR Satellite depicts some additional cloud top
cooling occurring ahead of the upper trough and cold front. Expect
there will be continued showers, with the best chance for t-storms
along and southeast of the main terminals along a narrow
instability axis.

At this point SW winds should largely hold just shy of crosswind
thresholds. Winds shifts to more of a 230-240 direction with the
initial onset of stronger winds before shifting to more of a 260
direction overnight. Undulations in speed will occur following the
first 4-5 hours post frontal passage, but should largely remain in
excess of 30 kt and approaching 40 kt at times through Saturday
morning.

Model guidance remains insistent on some flurries or snow showers
on the back side of the low, with the 8z-15z time frame favored.
Accumulations would be limited to our north if at all, and would
be on grassy surface. Most areas see flurries or light snow
showers. With the strong winds, there could be some brief
visibility reductions.

.MARINE...
218 PM CST

Headlines: Upgraded to a storm warning for the northern half of the
lake.  A gale warning remains in effect for the remainder of the
lake and NSH waters. However, a few storm force gusts are possible
over the southern open waters on Saturday. Do not have enough
confidence to expand the storm warning at this time.

A strong low is over the MN/WI state line and will slowly weaken as
it reaches Quebec Saturday.  The cold front swings over the front
tonight. Winds become northwest and increase behind the front. Storm
force winds are likely across the north half of the lake. High end
gales are expected across the south half and NSH waters, and a few
storm force gusts are psbl.  High pressure builds over the plains
tonight into Saturday keeping the pressure gradient strong over the
lake.  The gradient and winds weaken Sunday.  The high passes
overhead Monday afternoon and night leading to east to southeast
winds Tuesday.

The next low forms over the plains Monday night and reaches the lake
Wednesday evening.  Southeast gusts 15-25 kt are possible ahead of
the low Tuesday night. Winds weaken and vary across the lake as the
low slides across the lake, and then become northwest 15-25 kt
behind the low Thursday.  Winds remain westerly late next week as
high pressure shifts east from the plains.
