Area Forecast Discussion

329 PM CDT Thu May 31 2018

.SHORT TERM...(This evening through Friday)
ISSUED AT 325 PM CDT Thu May 31 2018

Severe bow echo that brought wind damage to southeast IL during
midday, has pushed well south and east of CWA at mid afternoon,
with its severe storms over southern tip of IL and east central
IN. Isolated showers/thunderstorms recently developed over heart
of CWA over parts of Logan and DeWitt counties with more showers
sw of Springfield. Also more isolated thunderstorms in ne IL from
central LaSalle county ne to south side of Chicago. LAPS CAPS were
1400-2400 j/kg north of I-70. and less than 1400 j/kg south of
I-70 which was stabilized from passage of midday storms. SPC day1
update has shift the slight to enhanced risk of severe storms
south of i-64 in southern IL, while a marginal risk was north of
I-70 for rest of this afternoon into evening around sunset. Will
have isolated to scattered showers and thunderstorms into this
evening over CWA and diminishing during overnight. Some patchy fog
possible later tonight south of I-72 if we get enough clearing as
lingering low level moisture and light winds. Lows overnight in
the upper 60s.

A weak cold front will push southward across central IL during
Friday and thru southeast IL friday evening. Isolated convection
possible with this front though not much lift with front and best
chances of this is east of I-57. Another very warm day in the
upper 80s to around 90F with heat indices peaking from 90-95F.
Dewpoints in the 65-70F range but slipping behind the front during
Fri afternoon especially from I-74 ne.

&&

.LONG TERM...(Friday night through Thursday)
ISSUED AT 325 PM CDT Thu May 31 2018

Isolated shower or thunderstorms possible in far southeast IL
early Friday evening, otherwise dry conditions friday night
through early Sat afternoon. 1035 mb Canadian high pressure over
southern Hudson Bay and ridging into IL overnight Friday night to
bring fair and cooler temps. Lows Friday night in the upper 50s
and lower 60s and less humid.

12Z models bring a sharp mid/upper level trof eastward into the MS
river valley by sunset Saturday, over IL by midnight Sat night and
east of IL by 12Z/7 am Sunday. This feature to bring a chance of
showers and thunderstorms to western CWA/IL river valley by late
Sat afternoon, and spreading across the CWA during Sat evening.
Convection should diminish from the west during overnight Sat
night. SPC day3 outlook has marginal risk of severe storms sw of
Lincoln, while slight risk of severe is over SW IL just sw of
Scott county for large hail and damaging winds. Highs Sat range
from lower 80s over northern CWA, to the mid 80s central CWA and
upper 80s in southeast IL. Lows Sat night in the lower 60s central
IL and mid to upper 60s in southeast IL.

A pleasant stretch of weather expected Sunday through next Thu
with generally dry conditions prevailing. Think GFS model is
strong and too far sw with upper level low over lower MI on Sunday
which has qpf ne of I-74. Discounted this solution and followed
the weaker and further ne placement of upper level trof of GEM and
Ecmwf models which keeps CWA dry. Cooler highs Sunday in the
upper 70s and lower 80s. Highs generally around 80F or lower 80s
on Monday. Lows Sunday night in the mid to upper 50s and lows
monday night in the upper 50s to around 60F. Upper level ridge
over the central plains and upper level low/trof of the ne country
to keep IL in a nw upper level flow, while weak surface high
pressure stays near IL. Still could be some short waves riding
over top of upper level ridge and tracking se into the ohio river
valley during early and middle part of next week, but too
difficult to pin point these disturbances down that far out.

.AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Friday afternoon)
Issued at 1255 PM CDT Thu May 31 2018

A severe bow echo passed along and south of I-70 during midday,
with central IL airports staying dry with VFR conditions so far
today. CAM models showing scattered thunderstorms to develop ne
into central IL between 20-22Z and then diminish during early
evening. Continued VCTS to address this chance of thunderstorms
for about a 4 hour period. This convection could briefly bring
MVFR conditions along with gusty winds especially along I-72. HRRR
showing patchy fog south of I-72 after 08Z/3 am tonight. Kept fog
out of TAF but will be closest to DEC and CMI from 09Z-13Z. SW to
WSW winds of 8-13 kts with gusts of 17-21Z into mid afternoon, to
diminish to around 5 kts by sunset and be light and variable
overnight into Fri morning.
