Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Chicago/Romeoville, IL
645 AM CDT Wed Jul 12 2017

.SHORT TERM...
322 AM CDT

Through tonight...

The main forecast challenges/concerns today and tonight will be
the threat of more severe thunderstorms with very heavy
rainfall...but in the near term the dangerous flash flood threat
that continues to intensify over far northeastern IL. Temperatures
and heat indices will also be a challenge today.

Convection continue to train at this hour over portions of far
northeastern IL, and this has resulted in radar estimated rainfall
amounts of 4 to 5 inches across portions of Lake IL and northern
portions of Kane, Dupage and far northwestern Cook counties.
Another area of training convection also continues to our
northeast near the Mississippi over far southeastern WI and
adjacent areas of IA. All of this activity has been driven
largely by the strong moisture convergence and warm air advection
along the nose of a west-southwesterly 40+ KT low-level jet. Given
this area of convergence has moved little over the past few
hours, it has allowed cells to continually regenerate over the
same area, resulting in little to no propagation to the area of
storms. Because of this, it appears that storms will continue
regenerate across portions of northeastern IL over at least the
next couple hours, and this will continue to result in a high and
dangerous flash flood threat for portions of far northeastern IL
as rain rates of up to 2" inches per hour continue. This may
result in rainfall amounts in excess of 6 inches across portions
of this area by 12z.

Thunderstorms should gradually begin to wane in intensity this
morning as the low level jet convergence weakens. Thereafter,
the outflow boundary will need to be watched for possible widely
scattered convective development into the afternoon. However, the
main mitigating factor to this development into this afternoon
will be what appears to be decent capping. Otherwise, the threat
of severe thunderstorms look to return to the area tonight as
convectively enhanced mid-level disturbances shift eastward from
the Plains towards northern IL and interact with a surface
frontal boundary dropping south towards the area. In addition to
the severe threat tonight, very heavy rain and some training
storms will again be possible.

...Temperatures and heat today...

Outflow from these morning storms has also stunned the effective
surface boundary from shifting northward. As of this writing it
appears to be near the I-88 corridor, and this casts extra
uncertainty on high temperatures and the magnitude of the heat
indices later today across far northern IL. This outflow and
convective debris clouds may keep at least far northern IL a bit
cooler (mid to upper 80s) than areas farther south. While this may
be the case, it will still be quite muggy areawide with dewpoints
in the 70s. I have opted to go with a heat advisory for my
southwest counties (La Salle, Grundy, Livingston and Ford
counties) for today as heat indices will likely reach around 105
degrees. This advisory could need to be expanded a bit later this
morning, especially if the convective degree gets out quicker.
However, confidence on heat indices topping out to 105 degrees
farther north and east this advisory is low at this time.
Nevertheless it will be an uncomfortable day areawide.

.LONG TERM...
322 am PM CDT

Thursday through Tuesday...

Due to very busy ongoing weather a new long term discussion will
not be updated this morning. Please see previous below for info.

Initial focus is on stormy conditions to begin the period. The
shortwave trough axis across the upper Midwest Wednesday will
shift east toward Lake Superior in the evening, with a belt of
stronger mid level flow and low amplitude shortwaves on the
southern fringe of this stronger wind field. Earlier development
across IA/MN will be driven by convergence on a cold front ahead
of these waves. Steering flow would suggest that this activity
would advect east across northern Illinois in the evening and
overnight hours, possibly in the form of an MCS or complex of
thunderstorms. The main threat period appears to be overnight. The
MUCAPE and increasing shear do support the threat maintaining
itself across the area during this time, with damaging winds and
possibly hail the main severe threats, but depending on previous
days rain, a flooding threat would be a concern given the 2"+
PWATs and very muggy airmass in place. A portion of the cold
front will help to scour out some of the humidity and instability
on Thursday. Where the front sets up on Thursday, additional
storms may again fire along in in the afternoon, but at this point
the focus area would be our southern area or points farther
south.

The occasionally wet pattern and the westerly weak shortwave
train will finally end as upper level low pressure across southern
Canada will shift east across the northern Great Lakes Thursday
night. As this occurs, high pressure at the surface will build
south across the upper midwest. This will help to shunt existing
frontal boundaries south of the area. The last wave is Thursday
night, and therefore there may be some lingering precip well south
before midnight. High pressure over MN/IA early Friday will move
east over the Mississippi Valley.

The upper level pattern will amplify this weekend as the big heat
dome across the west will build while troughing heads to the
eastern United States. A shortwave trough emanating from the
Pacific will dive south in this pattern Saturday night. As this
occurs, surface high pressure will sink south and allow a cold
front to also move south across the lake late Saturday into early
Sunday. Many guidance sources are dry, but the GFS/GFS ensembles
do paint some showers and storms overnight into early Sunday,
before reigniting on the front south of the area Sunday afternoon.

It appears beyond that the upper ridge in the west will finally
make its way in our direction, making for dry conditions, and
depending on the degree the ridge builds may allow to really heat
things up again the temperature department.

.AVIATION...
For the 12Z TAFs...

Following an extended period of thunderstorms overnight, the
airmass and wind field remains convectively disrupted with
variable winds across the region. Expect that the sely winds at
the Chicago area terminals will persist until arnd 14z and then
winds will become more representative of the synoptic pattern,
becmg swly. With a strengthening swly pressure gradient developing
through the morning, expect that wind speeds should steadily
increase with gusts up to 20-25 kt through the day.

Considerable uncertainty is a concern for convective trends for
the next several hours. The ongoing thunderstorms over srn WI are
tracking to the east, and should not pose a threat to the
terminals, but a bowing line of storms moving into swrn WI could
still maintain integrity as it reaches nrn IL. Have timed the line
into the RFD area with a tempo for 13-15z based on latest radar
trends, but there is some concern that the line could take more of
a sely track than a sly track and the ern end of the line could
clip the Chicago area terminals in the 14-16z timeframe. Given low
confidence that the line could hold together long enough to reach
the Chicago area, will keep those terminals dry for now.

There should be another round of thunderstorms overnight tonight
as a cold front sinks south out of Wisconsin and through nrn
IL/IN. Latest longer term guidance suggests that thunder may not
reach the terminals until late tonight. Given the continued
uncertainty in the convective trends, will only carry a broad
prob30 group for 06-12z and refine timing as the situation
evolves.

.MARINE...
209 PM CDT

There are no major periods of concern on Lake Michigan,
but winds will be varying a bit over the next few days. Gusty
northerly winds may build waves a little on the south half Sunday
into early Monday.

A stationary front on the southern tip of the lake
will shift north as a warm front tonight over a portion of Lake
Michigan before meandering back south later Thursday into Friday
as low pressure will spread from Iowa late today to Lake Huron by
early Friday. High pressure will build behind this low bringing a
brief period of northerly winds on Friday. The high will dip south
of the lake Saturday as another weak low will move east to
northern Lake Michigan Saturday, setting up a period of increased
southerly winds. This low will quickly move to the eastern Great
lakes by Sunday, as another high pressure area will shift to the
upper Great Lakes. Northerly winds return Sunday and Monday ahead
of the high that will sink south and spread over the lake late
Monday.
