25What forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this river flood warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Lincoln, IL wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at Apr 28, 5:28 AM CDT, 4 hours 25 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Apr 28, 5:28 AM CDT, 4 hours 25 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Lincoln IL 528 AM CDT Fri Apr 28 2017 .SHORT TERM...(Today and tonight) ISSUED AT 415 AM CDT Fri Apr 28 2017 Initial batch of rain showers is pushing eastward across Missouri early this morning, as a frontal boundary starts to set up over the mid- Mississippi Valley. Most impact of this batch will be across the northwest half of the forecast area this morning, with a secondary area of showers tracking northeast toward the I-70 corridor early in the afternoon. This southeastern area will see the beginnings of the frontal boundary which will plague the area this weekend. May see a few strong to severe thunderstorms this afternoon and evening in that area, although latest runs of the high-resolution models suggest the line of storms may form a little closer to the Ohio River early this evening. However, this line should start to lift northward after midnight, and have included categorical PoP's around 80% from about the I-70 corridor southward. Northern part of the CWA may actually remain dry for a good part of the night until the front lifts northward. && .LONG TERM...(Saturday through Thursday) ISSUED AT 415 AM CDT Fri Apr 28 2017 The seeds of a strong upper low are starting to take shape over Colorado early this morning, and will strengthen over the 4-corners region tonight. Copious moisture advection will take place off the Gulf into this frontal zone, with an extended period of precipitable water values of 1.5-2 inches through the weekend. The front will slowly lift northward Saturday as the low moves to the Texas panhandle, with a formidable surface cyclone forming Saturday night and Sunday as the low ejects northeast into the Plains. The front will make more northward progress on Sunday as the low lifts northeast, with a cold front sweeping eastward Sunday evening. Have made no changes to the flood watch at the present time, although recent model trends suggest an expansion at least to the Illinois River may need to be considered soon. Rainfall totals of 4 to 6 inches are possible between I-55 and I-57, with 4 inches as far northwest as the Illinois River. The heaviest rain is likely Saturday afternoon and night, as a 50-60 knot low level jet sets up around 850 mb to pump in the moisture. Once the cold front sweeps through, only scattered showers are expected through Monday evening, due to the wraparound from the exiting low. The front is also going to cause a significant headache with temperatures. A very large temperature range is expected over the CWA on Saturday, ranging from near 50 degrees around Galesburg to the lower 80s near Lawrenceville. Potential exists for major temperature busts if the front does not set up near the I-70 corridor as expected. More of the CWA will be in the warm sector on Sunday, with 70s more likely as far northwest as the Illinois River. The deep cold air advection behind the low will result in highs only in the 50s on Monday, but temperatures should moderate back into the 60s for the remainder of the week. && .AVIATION...(For the 12Z TAFS through 12Z Saturday morning) Issued at 527 AM CDT Fri Apr 28 2017 While rain showers will begin moving into central Illinois after 12Z, ceilings remain VFR level all the way back to eastern Kansas. As the heavier rains move into west central Illinois, MVFR conditions are expected to develop, but the track would suggest that this would remain northwest of the TAF sites through mid afternoon. A more wholesale lowering of ceilings below 2,000 feet is likely late afternoon and persisting through the rest of the forecast period. Southeast winds at or just above 10 knots will persist through the afternoon, before swinging back to the northeast as a frontal boundary sets up over southern Illinois. && .HYDROLOGY... Issued at 415 AM CDT Fri Apr 28 2017 A large area of 3 to 6 inches of rain is expected this weekend over central and southeast Illinois, with the heaviest totals between the I-55 and I-57 corridors. Contingency river forecasts using 3 to 4 days of QPF suggest flooding would likely develop Sunday or Monday on the Embarras, Sangamon, and Illinois Rivers, and a bit earlier on the Little Wabash River where Wednesday's rainfall totals were heavier and still causing rises. Some of the model trends have been shifting the heaviest rain axis a bit further northwest, which could cause a bigger impact on the Illinois River. People with interests on area rivers need to monitor the forecasts closely over the next couple days. && .ILX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... Flash Flood Watch from this evening through Monday morning for ILZ038-042>046-048-051>057-061>063-066>068-071>073. && SHORT TERM...Geelhart LONG TERM...Geelhart AVIATION...Geelhart HYDROLOGY...Geelhart
