NWS Lincoln, IL wrote its last area forecast discussion before this heat advisory went out at Aug 23, 12:55 PM CDT, 1 hour 58 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Aug 23, 12:55 PM CDT, 1 hour 58 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Lincoln IL 1255 PM CDT Mon Aug 23 2021 .SYNOPSIS... Issued at 347 AM CDT Mon Aug 23 2021 A prolonged period of heat and humidity will be on tap across central Illinois, with air temperatures climbing into the upper 80s to mid 90s and heat index values exceeding 100 degrees through next weekend. Limit time outdoors and drink plenty of water as the heat builds this week. && .UPDATE... Issued at 1035 AM CDT Mon Aug 23 2021 Updated the forecast to increase chances of showers and thunderstorms over the IL river valley into midday. MCS to weaken as it tracks into the IL river valley next few hours. SPC Day 1 outlook introduced a marginal risk of severe storms with gusty winds next few hours nw of the IL river. Rest of the forecast looks on track with heat and humidity building this afternoon. Highs in the upper 80s and lower 90s with heat indices peaking 95-102F highest over sw CWA. && .SHORT TERM...(Today and tonight) ISSUED AT 347 AM CDT Mon Aug 23 2021 With high pressure directly overhead, skies are clear and winds have become calm across central Illinois early this morning. Thanks to excellent radiational cooling and a modestly moist boundary layer, fog is developing...particularly along/east of the I-55 corridor. High clouds are beginning to stream across the northern KILX CWA, which should inhibit widespread fog formation there. Meanwhile further south, most CAMs are suggesting the potential for dense fog. 08z/3am obs continue to show a distinct downward trend in visby, with several sites across the E/SE at or below 1/2 mile. As a result, will be issuing a Dense Fog Advisory along/south of a Danville to Lincoln line through 9am. Further west, scattered convection has developed ahead of a cold front within a broad 30-40kt 850mb jet from eastern Nebraska to western Wisconsin. This activity will slowly shift eastward over the next several hours, but will remain west of central Illinois until after sunrise. As the nocturnal jet weakens and the convection pushes into a more unfavorable environment east of the Mississippi River, areal coverage will diminish later this morning. In fact, some models completely dissipate the showers/storms before they ever arrive. Have opted to include low chance PoPs west of I-55 from mid-morning into the afternoon, although most locations will likely stay dry. High temperatures today will be a couple of degrees warmer than yesterday, topping out in the upper 80s and lower 90s. With frontal boundary remaining well to the W/NW and the nocturnal jet once again orienting itself from the Plains into the Upper Midwest, it appears nighttime convection will stay largely to the north across Minnesota into Wisconsin late tonight. The NAM tries to drop the storms S/SE into north-central Illinois late: however, this does not make much sense based on frontal position and thickness regime. Have therefore maintained a mostly dry forecast...with just slight chance PoPs along/north of a Galesburg to Bloomington line toward dawn. .LONG TERM...(Tuesday through Sunday) ISSUED AT 347 AM CDT Mon Aug 23 2021 Heat and humidity will be the main weather story in the extended, as all signs point to a prolonged period of heat Tuesday through Saturday. Afternoon heat index values will climb above 105 degrees across much of central Illinois both Tuesday and Wednesday afternoon, and will likely remain oppressive right into the weekend as well. There will be periodic storm chances to provide some temporary cooling: however, with rising upper heights, the best chance for widespread convection will be suppressed further north across the Great Lakes. Further out, all models agree that a significant short-wave trough tracking out of the northern Rockies will flatten the prevailing upper ridge and push a cold front into central Illinois early next week. Timing of FROPA is still uncertain, but models are focusing on the Sunday night/Monday time frame. Given approach of forcing mechanism, have carried highest PoPs of the entire forecast period Sunday afternoon/night. && .AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Tuesday afternoon) Issued at 1250 PM CDT Mon Aug 23 2021 A lingering band of convection was pushing east into the IL river valley early this afternoon and affecting PIA and MVFR conditions possible next 1-2 hours. Have VCTS at PIA while better chance of thunderstorms will be over the lower IL river valley by Schuyler county. An outflow boundary had slipped south of Lincoln and may get close to SPI and have VCSH there til 20Z. Also carried VCSH at BMI as weakening line of convection pushes eastward toward I-55. Expect some fog to develop again overnight after 08-09Z especially in eastern IL with vsbys down to 2-4 miles and lifting 13-14Z Tue. South to SSW winds 5-10 kts during daytime hours and around 5 kts tonight. && .ILX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
