.SHORT TERM...(Today and tonight)
ISSUED AT 311 AM CST Tue Feb 5 2019

Complicated forecast scenario for tonight, in regards to the ice
accumulations. Latest model suite has edged the warmer air a bit
further north, which would diminish the threat of icing in areas
from Bloomington west to Havana. However, high-res models show
some convective elements to the freezing rain this evening through
about midnight. This would enhance the ice accumulations, though
if the rain is too heavy, then the icing threat would actually be
a bit more limited. Main threat would begin after 6 pm in any
event, and by midnight, will mainly be limited to areas west of
the Illinois River. Thus, the following changes are being made to
the winter weather headlines:

1) Ice Storm Warning will be issued for Fulton, Knox, Stark, and
Marshall Counties.

2) Winter Weather Advisory is being dropped for Mason, Tazewell,
and McLean Counties.

3) Start time will be 6 pm this evening for both the warning and
the remaining part of the advisory.

.LONG TERM...(Wednesday through Monday)
ISSUED AT 311 AM CST Tue Feb 5 2019

Strong moisture feed will continue into Thursday over a good
portion of the area, with precipitable water values over an inch.
Threat of flooding will be on the increase across especially the
areas I-72 and south. See the Hydrology section below for more
details.

Precip types not expected to be a concern for Wednesday and
early Thursday, as warmer air continues to surge into the area.
Highs around 60 are likely both days over the southeast CWA, with
40s across the north. Temperatures will be falling Thursday
afternoon, which will lead to a brief transition to freezing rain
and snow as the precipitation ends.

Much colder air on tap for the end of the work week, as an Arctic
air mass brings a glancing blow to central Illinois. Lows in the
single digits will be common by Friday night, but temps quickly
warm up as ridging starts to build across the Plains early this
weekend.

Late in the weekend, precipitation starts to move back in ahead of
a shortwave moving through the Plains. Models show some
significant divergence with the evolution of this system early
next week, but that is mostly beyond the current forecast period.

.AVIATION...(For the 12Z TAFS through 12Z Wednesday morning)
Issued at 525 AM CST Tue Feb 5 2019

Western fringes of the low cloud deck have been having a tough
time making eastward progress over the last few hours, and
KBMI/KSPI have been alternating between VFR and near-IFR
conditions. Not looking for any wholesale changes in eastern
Illinois this morning, and ceilings over the western half of
central Illinois will drop to MVFR again as low clouds spread in
from Missouri. A prolonged period of rain will develop early this
evening, which will result in IFR ceilings and visibilities
overspreading the area. Some concern for freezing rain near KPIA,
as temperatures will be just above freezing. Will keep them as
straight rain for now, but will need to watch this closely.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
Issued at 311 AM CST Tue Feb 5 2019

Flooding threat continues to be a concern across mainly the
southeast half of the forecast area. Will continue the Hydrologic
Outlook for this area, and a transition to a Flood Watch may be
needed soon. Latest guidance indicates potential for 2-3 inches of
rain near and south of I-70 through the end of the work week, and
with the soils not fully thawed, runoff potential is high.
Outlooks from the Weather Prediction Center have a marginal risk
of flash flooding from about Taylorville-Paris southward on
Wednesday and Wednesday night, and a slight risk Thursday south of
I-70.

River trends will continue to be heading up the next few days,
between this rain and the recent snow melt across the northern
CWA. Parts of the Spoon and Mackinaw Rivers have recently shown
ice action, which are pushing the rivers to just shy of flood
stage. Flooding along the Wabash River is likely within the next
day or two around Hutsonville, as well as the Illinois River near
Havana and Beardstown.
