Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Lincoln IL
107 PM CDT Tue Jul 21 2020

.SYNOPSIS...
Issued at 345 AM CDT Tue Jul 21 2020

Expect daily chances for scattered showers and thunderstorms
through Friday, though there will be plenty of dry hours each
day. Temperatures generally in the mid to upper 80s are expected
through Friday, then lower 90s return over the weekend into early
next week as hot and humid conditions prevail.

&&

.UPDATE...
Issued at 1053 AM CDT Tue Jul 21 2020

The morning update was focused on the expected trends with the
line of storms currently progressing across the northern half of
our CWA. None of the CAMs have a handle of this complex, with the
HRRR playing catch-up with each hourly update. The progression has
the line exiting our counties to the E-NE by about 1 pm or so,
with a lull in convection until later afternoon. The CAMs are
still indicating additional storm development between just east
of the IL river and I-72 late this afternoon. That line is
expected to progress to the east through this evening, affecting
areas mainly north of I-70. Around midnight, another line of
storms could develop along I-70 and move southeast through our SE
counties.

Some clearing will be possible behind the current line of storms,
with afternoon heating increasing our overall instability. High
surface moisture will help boost surface based CAPEs into the
2-3000 J/kg range. SPC increased our Day 1 Severe Outlook to
Slight Risk with the 1230z update, and that potential will be
present through the evening hours.

Temps will be tied to the amount of clearing this afternoon, but
we still expected highs in the mid to upper 80s.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(Today and tonight)
ISSUED AT 400 AM CDT Tue Jul 21 2020

Areas of fog had developed over se IL early this morning and was
dense for a time over parts of Clay, Richland and Lawrence
counties and still dense at 4 am over Lawrence county. Increasing
clouds over southeast IL early this morning should limit dense fog
coverage and latest HRRR shows fog diminishing from west to east
over southeast IL next few hours thru 12Z/7 am and shifting into
sw IN by then.

A veering low level jet interacting with an old frontal boundary
over sw/southern IL was generating an area of showers and
thunderstorms sw of Litchfield to Olney line and back to the St
Louis area and tracking ENE into Clay county at 4 am. Scattered
showers and isolated thunderstorms were WNW of Lincoln in west
central IL and also tracking ENE over the IL river valley. Latest
CAMS shows this convection gradually diminishing during this
morning as it tracks ENE over central and southeast IL.

A mid/upper level trof along the IA/NE and ne KS and nw MO border
will track east into the MS river valley by late afternoon.
Meanwhile the old frontal boundary is projected to lift northward
across central IL during today with an increasingly unstable
tropical airmass over the area. Precipitatable water values quite
high too ranging from 1.6-2 inches. Scattered showers and
thunderstorms likely to develop during this afternoon and SPC day1
outlook has marginal risk of severe storms for damaging wind gusts
and hail. Would not be surprised if part of area was upgraded to a
slight risk from this afternoon into mid evening as CAPES rise
over 2500 j/kg southeast of the IL river this afternoon, while
bulk shear values of 25-40 kts north of I-70. Locally heavy rains
also expected due to very high precipitable water values
approaching 2 inches. WPC day1 outlook has slight chance of
excessive rainfall today and evening se of the IL river and
marginal risk nw of the IL river. Highs today mainly in the mid
80s, with lower 80s by Knox and Stark counties and upper 80s in
southeast IL. Afternoon heat indices peak in the low to mid 90s se
of the IL river, with mid to upper 90s in southeast IL.

High chances of showers and thunderstorms this evening and
lingering over eastern IL early overnight as trof moves thru. Lows
tonight mostly around 70 degrees in central IL and lower 70s in
southeast IL.

.LONG TERM...(Wednesday through Monday)
ISSUED AT 400 AM CDT Tue Jul 21 2020

Trof and frontal boundary shifting se toward the Ohio river valley
on Wed where higher pops will be focused. A lull in convection
over the IL river valley especially nw of the IL river overnight
and Wed morning. SPC day2 outlook has marginal risk of severe
storms in southeast IL Wed afternoon where airmass is more
unstable with afternoon CAPES around 2000 j/kg. Warm highs in the
mid to upper 80s on Wed with humid conditions prevailing. Heat
indices Wed afternoon range from upper 80s to around 90 nw of the
IL river, and mid 90s from I-72 south.

Chance of convection lingers Wed night and could more coverage of
convection overnight Wed into Thu over southern CWA closer to the
frontal boundary and low level jet. Highs Thu in the mid to upper
80s and afternoon heat indices in the low to mid 90s over much of
the CWA.

A lull in convection after sunset on Thu night and mainly have
pops in southeast IL Thu night. Then isolated to scattered showers
and thunderstorms over the area on Friday, with upper level ridge
building over the MS river valley and convection chances should
trend more isolated as ridge builds in. This will also start
building the heat over the area with highs Fri in the upper 80s to
near 90F and afternoon heat indices in the 90s, with sw CWA near
100.

500 mb heights rise to 594 dm or higher over CWA this weekend and
isolated convection possible in afternoon and early evening hours
Sat/Sun. Highs around 90F Sat and lower 90s Sunday with afternoon
heat indices climbing to upper 90s and lower 100s Sat afternoon
and 100-105 Sunday afternoon, so approaching heat advisory
criteria then.

Upper level ridge shifting back south early next work week with a
frontal boundary pushing southward toward central IL Mon night and
Tue. This to bring a better chance of showers/thunderstorms Mon
afternoon into Tue. Still hot and humid Mon with highs in the
lower 90s and afternoon heat indies of 100-105F. Highs in the
upper 80s to near 90F next Tue and still very humid.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Wednesday afternoon)
Issued at 107 PM CDT Tue Jul 21 2020

Aviation concerns are tied to convective trends this afternoon and
evening. Some brief low MVFR clouds will linger near PIA at the
start of the 18z TAF period, but should mix out and become VFR by
19z.

CAMs are showing next wave of storms developing early this
afternoon, which radar and satellite trends support. Have included
an early afternoon TEMPO for storms at SPI and DEC, and may have
to expand that to include CMI by mid afternoon. A wave of storms
will fill in roughly along I-72 then gradually shift to the
southeast this evening. SPI, DEC and CMI will have the best
chances of storms through this evening. Have continued a VCTS at
PIA and BMI for late afternoon into evening, but may be able to
reduce that time as convective initiation trends reveal
themselves this afternoon.

Winds look to remain S-SW the next 24 hours, with prevailing winds
mainly at or below 10kt.
