Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Lincoln IL
325 PM CDT Thu May 16 2019

.SHORT TERM...(This evening through Friday)
ISSUED AT 325 PM CDT Thu May 16 2019

Persistent convective complex that developed over the Dakotas
last night continues to track southeastward...with the back edge
of the system currently impacting the NE KILX CWA around Danville.
The storms are following the strongest instability axis, which
will take the main complex into Indiana over the next couple of
hours. Am concerned about additional development on the back edge
of the departing system, as it is being fed by a highly unstable
airmass characterized by SBCAPEs of over 4000J/kg. As a result,
think scattered thunderstorms will persist along/northeast of a
Bloomington to Robinson line through early evening. After that,
attention will turn to convective development along an approaching
cold front currently extending from central Wisconsin into
northern Iowa. Scattered thunderstorms will develop along this
boundary by mid-evening, with storms tracking across the northern
CWA through the night. Have therefore included slight chance PoPs
as far south as a Canton to Lincoln...to Paris line...with high
chance or likely PoPs along/north of a Galesburg to Minonk line.
Scattered showers and thunderstorms will persist near the frontal
boundary into Friday, before it begins to lift back northward
later in the day. High temperatures will range from the middle 70s
far north around Lacon...to the middle to upper 80s further south
across the remainder of the area.

&&

.LONG TERM...(Friday night through Thursday)
ISSUED AT 325 PM CDT Thu May 16 2019

Vigorous short-wave trough currently over northern California
will cross the Rockies and approach Illinois from the west
Saturday night into Sunday. Primary surface low will develop in
the lee of the Rockies over eastern Colorado on Saturday then will
track northeastward into Wisconsin by Sunday evening. As the low
approaches, a wave of convection will develop across the Plains
Saturday afternoon...then will push into central Illinois late
Saturday night into Sunday morning. Will carry high chance to
likely PoPs during that time frame accordingly. Big question then
becomes...will the atmosphere have enough time to adequately
destabilize after the morning precip in order to support another
round of convection Sunday afternoon as a cold front pushes into
Illinois. 12z May 16 GFS shows a narrow instability axis
characterized by SBCAPEs of around 2000J/kg developing along/east
of I-57 by Sunday afternoon, but generates little or no late day
convection in Illinois. Think this may be too optimistic,
especially given 0-6km bulk shear values increasing to 40-50kt.
With front not passing into Indiana until evening, think at least
scattered strong to potentially severe storms will fire during the
afternoon...especially across the E/SE. Stay tuned to later
forecasts as details become fine-tuned.

Once the front passes, cooler/drier weather will be on tap for
Monday before yet another system brings unsettled weather late
Monday night into Tuesday.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Friday afternoon)
Issued at 105 PM CDT Thu May 16 2019

Will continue to monitor a cluster of strong/severe thunderstorms
currently just north of KPNT: however, this complex appears that
it will miss the central Illinois terminals to the northeast this
afternoon. Aside from a stray thunderstorm, most locations will
remain dry until tonight when attention turns to a boundary
sinking southward through northern Illinois. Have included VCTS at
both KPIA and KBMI after 03z/05z, but have not mentioned thunder
at any of the other sites. The front will begin lifting back
northward Friday morning, so thunder chances should stay mostly
north of the area. Winds will initially be S/SW with gusts of
20-25kt this afternoon, then will become SW and decrease to around
10kt tonight.
