Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Lincoln IL
101 PM CDT Mon Apr 10 2017

.UPDATE...
Issued at 1119 AM CDT Mon Apr 10 2017

Complex forecast scenario across central and southeast Illinois
today. A cold front, currently approaching west-central Illinois,
is still forecast to push east of the area by later this evening.
Most guidance still develops a line of showers/storms along & just
ahead of the front this afternoon. However, none of the current
guidance has a very good handle on the pre-frontal convection
across Illinois and Missouri. The thicker cloud cover and slower
warming resulting from the ongoing convection certainly has the
potential to minimize the development later today. Assuming we can
destabilize before the cold front arrives, a few strong to severe
storms appear likely this afternoon/early evening given the
moderately strong shear (bulk shear 45-50kts) and instability
(pre-frontal CAPEs as high as 2000 j/kg).

Have already made numerous adjustments to PoPs into this evening
to try and better capture the ongoing and expected convection. Did
not make major changes to other parameters, although if pre-
frontal convection continues to fire over the next few hours we
may have a hard time reaching forecast highs in some areas.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(Today and tonight)
ISSUED AT 332 AM CDT Mon Apr 10 2017

Most of central and southeast IL has been dry so far early this
morning with recent band of convection appearing nw of the IL river.
Breezy ssw winds and mostly cloudy skies keeping mild temps in the
mid to upper 60s, with Effingham still at 70F. Main area of
convection over northern MO and southern IA associated with a small
MCS ahead of a compact short wave trof over SD/NE. Hi-resolution
models gradually weaken this strong to locally severe convection
with some hail as it tracks eastward into central IL thru the
morning, mainly affecting western/nw half of CWA. 1000 mb surface
low pressure near La Crosse, WI will weaken as it track into
northern lower MI by 18Z/1 pm today. Another surface low pressure
about 1007 mb ejects ne from southeast KS into nw IL this afternoon
and pulling cold front se toward the IL river by early evening. Air
mass to destabilize ahead of cold front over central IL during
this afternoon as MLCapes rise to 1000-1500 J/kg. SPC has marginal
risk across much of CWA this afternoon into mid evening, while
slight risk is in northeast IL ne of Marshall county. Another mild
day in the 70s ahead of the cold front today with breezy sw winds
gusting to 25-35 mph. Good chances of showers and t thunderstorms
this evening especially east of the IL river, then diminishing
overnight, with just isolated convection southeast of I-70 by late
tonight as cold front moves se of IL and approaching the ohio
river by dawn Tue. Lows tonight range from lower 40s nw of the IL
river, to 50-55F southeast of I-70.

.LONG TERM...(Tuesday through Sunday)
ISSUED AT 332 AM CDT Mon Apr 10 2017

Pacific high pressure over the central and northern Rockies to drift
east into the eastern Plains on Tue, across IL Tue night and over
lower MI and ohio river valley on Wed. This to bring a dry
conditions to CWA from Tue thru Wed evening. More sunshine expected
Tue through nw winds to cool temps closer to normal with highs
around 60F northern CWA and mid to upper 60s in southeast IL. Lows
Tue night around 40F northern CWA and near 45F by Lawrenceville. A
fair amount of sunshine expected Wed with winds becoming se and to
warm temps up a bit. Highs Wed into the mid 60s from I-74 ne and
upper 60s to near 70F sw of I-74. Not as cool Wed night as clouds
increase and se flow, with lows in the upper 40s/lower 50s.

Models bring a weakening frontal boundary and weak surface low
pressure of 1015 mb into central IA by dawn Thu. This to spread
chances of showers and isolated thunderstorms into western CWA
overnight Wed night and over area on Thu as weakening front moves
into area. Highs Thu in the upper 60s and lower 70s. Most areas
should be dry Thu night and only carries slight pops in northern
CWA.

Upper level ridge building into IL by dawn Friday and this to help
lift front back north as warm front and return chances of showers
and thunderstorms from sw to ne, with highs in the low to mid 70s on
Friday.Saturday appears to be the warmest day with highs 75-80F and
continued chances of showers and thunderstorms. The frontal boundary
appears to push back south into area on Easter Sunday with lingering
chances of convection. Temperatures starting to cool a bit
especially northern CWA where highs around 70F while mid 70s in
southeast IL but still staying above normal for mid April.

.AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Tuesday afternoon)
Issued at 1257 PM CDT Mon Apr 10 2017

VFR conditions should prevail across the central Illinois
terminals for the bulk of the 18Z TAF valid time. However, brief
periods of MVFR conditions are possible this afternoon into early
evening as showers/storms ahead of an advancing cold front move
through the area. Gusty southerly winds ahead of the front will
diminish and trend west and eventually northwest behind the front.
Wrap around MVFR CIGs are possible Tuesday morning, but
confidence is too low to include at this time.
