Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Chicago/Romeoville, IL
1130 PM CST Sat Dec 2 2017

.SHORT TERM...
132 PM CST

Through Sunday...

Mild start to December will continue through the weekend, with
light winds and clear to partly cloudy skies making for pleasant
outdoor conditions through Sunday.

Morning upper air analysis and GOES water vapor imagery depict
zonal flow across most of the CONUS this afternoon. A minor
amplitude mid level short wave was noted traversing the region per
vapor/vis imagery, with only a patch of high clouds evident over
parts of IA, WI and far northern IL at 19Z. At the surface, weak
low pressure was moving slowly east along the south shore of Lake
Superior, with a dissipating cold frontal trough trailing through
eastern WI and into northwest IL. Little impact on our sensible
weather will be noted as this front slides across the area toward
sunset, and the start of our diurnal temp drop, with only a shift
to slightly more westerly light winds expected. Weak high pressure
spreads into the area tonight, with clearing skies behind the
mid-level wave and light winds allowing temps to drop off into the
20's in most areas outside of urban Chicago. With good radiative
conditions expected overnight, have general utilized coolest temp
guidance for overnight mins.

On Sunday, upper pattern amplifies a bit, with broad upper
ridging developing across the central CONUS downstream of a strong
upper trough moving into the west coast. This induces lee-trough
development with a surface low developing across the high plains
of WY during the day. Locally, this re-establishes modest
southerly low level winds with our weak high drifting off to the
east, and increasing low-level warm advection as stronger
southwesterly winds above the surface develop. Model 950 mb temps
rise to +7C to +9C by early afternoon, which would support highs
in the mid-upper 50's despite relatively shallow boundary layer
mixing. Forecast soundings and time-height sections again indicate
patchy high clouds at times, though thicker cloud cover looks to
remain just west/northwest of the forecast area into the
afternoon. Thus favored warmest guidance members for max temps
Sunday, yielding 55-59 for highs across the cwa.

.LONG TERM...
307 PM CST

Sunday night through Saturday...

As has been well advertised, the upcoming week will be a tale of
two seasons, as we abruptly transition from mid fall/early spring
weather to full blown winter. In our fall/spring regime through
Monday evening, these concerns/areas of focus are the mild temps,
strong to very strong winds Monday and showers and even thunder
potential Sunday night through Monday evening. Once we flip to
winter on Tuesday, concerns shift to cold temperatures, strong
winds Tuesday and breezy at times the rest of the period, low
wind chills and some snow potential.

For Sunday night through Monday night, models have remained in
decent agreement with a deepening surface low tracking from the
central/northern Plains to near or over Lake Superior by early
Tuesday. There has been a noted trend on much of the operational
and ensemble guidance the previous few model cycles toward a very
deep cyclone near or just north of Lake Superior by Tuesday
morning. This low path will keep us firmly entrenched in the warm
sector. Very strong warm advection aided by a ~50 kt southwest
LLJ and strengthening gusty southerly surface flow will result in
steady or slowly rising temps Sunday night and a very mild
starting point on Monday. Details are still a bit murky to be
sorted out with shower potential/coverage in the warm sector, so
mostly chance PoPs continue to be favored through Monday
afternoon. As mid-level lapse rates steepen, elevated instability
will increase, but mostly north of the area during the earlier
part of the day and then limited MUCAPE moving in from the west
during the afternoon.

Despite some at least spotty showers around and clouds on Monday,
the warm starting point, dewpoints approaching or exceeding 50,
and the strong WAA and southerly surface flow, highs into the 60s
are a good bet. Therefore have continued with temperatures in the
grids into the low 60s area wide, with mid 60s included in spots
south and also possible farther north per some of the warmest
guidance. Regarding winds, southerly gusts of at least up to 30
to 40 mph are probable due to the very tight pressure gradient and
stout pressure falls. Bufkit soundings indicate that Monday
afternoon through Monday evening ahead of the cold front, gusts
even higher than 40 mph are possible if mixing is deep enough.

Have highest confidence in shower coverage Monday evening with the
system's powerful cold front and have also continued with chance
thunder with aforementioned steep mid-level lapse rates and
presence of modest MUCAPE across most of the area. As previous
discussion mentioned, the forced line of showers and embedded
thunderstorms Monday evening may also be able to mix down
isolated near severe gusts. Winds will quickly flip from southerly
to strong westerly behind the cold front, which will quickly end
precipitation from northwest to southeast. Temperatures quickly
falling into the 30s by daybreak Tuesday will accompany the
westerly winds gusting at least up to 30 to 40 mph, with again the
potential for advisory criteria gusts aided by impressive
pressure rises and strong CAA.

Strong CAA and gusty winds will continue through Tuesday as the
low-mid 970s mb surface low slowly pulls north in Ontario.
Temperatures are unlikely to rise much if at all from morning
lows. The combination of temperatures primarily in the lower to
mid 30s and westerly winds gusting up to 30-35+ mph will yield
late day wind chills in the upper teens to mid 20s, quite the
change from 24 hours prior. Some of the models indicate a weak
moisture starved wave speeding across the area Tuesday afternoon
associated with a secondary cold front. Have included chance
flurry mention north of I-80 for this and can't rule out a brief
period of more robust snow than just flurries if this wave
materializes.

Operational and ensemble guidance continues to be in good
agreement on the large scale pattern through day 7 and beyond.
This will feature a highly anomalous and poleward extending
Pacific blocking ridge (positive Pacific North American
Pattern/+PNA and negative East Pacific Oscillation/-EPO)
connecting to Arctic region blocking (negative Arctic
Oscillation/-AO). Downstream of the anomalous blocking will be an
anomalously deep longwave trough with an axis roughly across
Hudson Bay and featuring gyres of the tropospheric PV working into
the northern US. While there is inherent uncertainty in the
specific day to day details this far out, confidence is high due
to the teleconnection pattern described above (similar to what
produced very cold to extreme cold in 2013-14 and 2014-15 winters)
in cold to very cold temperatures likely through beyond day 7.

Given the above but the lack of snow cover initially, have
forecast high and low temperatures mostly in the 20s to low 30s
by day and mostly teens by night. Coupled with breezy winds in
cold advection regime, minimum wind chill values look to be in the
positive single digits if not colder. The large scale pattern
continues to be one that generally appears unlikely to be
supportive of a major snow system through Saturday.

However, it is one that will likely have fast southeastward
moving energetic clipper systems over the central US and Midwest.
The most robust signal for one or more of these has been on the
Thursday night through Friday night timeframe, particularly on
multiple recent runs of the GFS (with some GEFS ensemble support).
It is still much too early to have much confidence in the track
and intensity of this clipper low(s), if it even materializes.
Have continued with low-mid chance PoPs for snow potential to
close the week. Even colder temperatures than what will occur Tue-
Fri are possible next weekend behind the potential clipper, much
colder than in current grids if most potent cold shot scenarios
come to pass. Should there be any snow cover across the local
area going into next weekend, then bitterly cold temps/wind chills
are possible.

.AVIATION...
For the 06Z TAFs...

Patchy shallow ground fog could lead to some localized vsby
restrictions overnight in the outlying terminals. Otherwise, VFR
and light winds expected through the day Sunday. Late Sunday
night, winds will increase from the south and could grow gusty at
times. Just off the deck, winds will increase to 50kt+ likely
resulting in an increasing risk of LLWS early Monday morning.
Could also be some showers and perhaps an isolated thunderstorm
after 06z Monday. For now, introduced a VCSH, but as confidence in
timing and occurrence increases, may need to beef up the precip
mention in the TAFs.

.MARINE...
357 PM CST

A strong and deepening low pressure system will move from the
central Plains Sunday night to just north of Lake Superior by
Monday evening. This path, magnitude, and strengthening trend of
this system are all favorable for gales over the lake. While
stability over the water will be present ahead of the low, the
sustained winds will be high enough it appears to allow for
gales. After the powerful cold front sweeps across the lake Monday
night, there could even be some westerly storm force gusts in the
north into Tuesday morning depending on the exact track and
intensity of the surface low. Westerly gales will continue through
Tuesday night, finally easing by early Wednesday. While
temperatures will be falling, readings look warm enough during the
strongest winds to not have a freezing spray threat. Winds will
remain elevated Wednesday and then diminish a bit on Thursday.

Have issued a Gale Watch for the open waters from late Sunday
night through early Wednesday morning. Hazardous conditions for
small craft will ensue Sunday evening across the nearshore
waters. Confidence has increased in gales in the nearshore late
Monday afternoon through Tuesday night/early Wednesday (easing
latest for the IN shore), so have issued a Gale Watch for that
time frame for the nearshore as well.
