Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Chicago/Romeoville, IL
134 PM CDT Thu Jun 24 2021

.UPDATE...
1201 PM CDT

Scattered showers and thunderstorms continue to develop along and
just east of the I-55 corridor late this morning. This activity
is occurring within an area of enhanced lower-level warm air
advection in association with an approaching MCV centered just
north of MLI. Very heavy rainfall is the primary concern with
this area of storms, with amounts of 1-2 inches falling per hour.
We recently issued a flood advisory for much of this area south of
the metro to highlight this threat, but we will have to keep an
eye on this activity as it continues to develop northward over
southern parts of the metro. Expect this activity to continue into
this afternoon as it gradually shifts eastward into northwestern
IN.

Additional showers and some embedded storms will also be possible
this afternoon to the north and west of the main corridor of
ongoing storms as the aforementioned MCV north of MLI shifts
eastward across northern IL.

Our next concern comes with the potential for another period of
heavy rain producing storms developing into the area later this
evening and overnight. We will assess the need for a flood watch
for parts of the area for the afternoon package.

showers and storms with successive influences (domino effect) on
where next convective rounds will be. There will be periods of
regional heavy rain, with the first likely tonight into Friday
morning. Will continue messaging this in graphic(s) and a
Hydrologic Outlook. A Flood Watch may be needed later today or
tonight for cumulative effects by Friday and Saturday.

Large scale GOES-16 water vapor imagery this morning depicts a
slightly dampening ridge over the country's midsection as a strong
upper jet streak races eastward across the Canadian border. A
slow-moving surface cold front from Minnesota into eastern/central
Nebraska early this morning is serving as a focus for scattered
convective clusters in Minnesota and northwest Wisconsin. This is
one area we are watching as well as the MCS near Omaha as of 300
A.M. It is likely the MCS will progress southeast, however a low
amplitude convectively-enhanced perturbation seen on satellite and
regional radar mosaic is emanating eastward and is also key.

Both of these aforementioned features and their forcing for
ascent and foci for convergence should increase the shower and
thunderstorm potential from northwest to southeast over the area
late this morning into afternoon. Some of the expected convective
clusters in Wisconsin later this morning will likely have cold
pool/outflow pushes to help them reach the Illinois state line
area late this morning, though there is uncertainty how filled in
this activity will be as it further outpaces the front. Several
CAM solutions -- which need to be used with multiple grains of
salt in this pattern -- show the activity to be fairly narrow (1-2
hours in duration) as it moves into the area from Wisconsin,
potentially resulting in the northern CWA seeing chances drop off
for a period mid-late afternoon. Confidence on this is presently
low. Other scattered activity ahead of the short wave (related to
moistening isentropic ascent) should progress east-southeast over
the central and southern CWA this afternoon. Typically with such
a feature arriving during peak heating, we are more concerned for
severe potential, but surface and mixed layer instability will be
still limited. It's possible a few storms feed on outflows and
gradually increasing MUCAPE (>1,500 J/kg especially in north
central Illinois) to become temporarily near or marginally
severe.

Moving forward into tonight, that "domino effect" of prior and
ongoing rounds of convection starts to grow and making it more
challenging. However, synoptically we are under a right entrance
region of the northern stream jet and a stout 35-40 kt
southwesterly low-level jet will be nosing into northern Illinois
this evening. One potential issue is robust convection on a
warm front extending into northern Missouri may rob some moisture
transport. But think there is still plenty going for lift and
moisture (PWATs at or above 1.9 inches) for a growing footprint of
showers and convection in the CWA this evening, probably more
favored in north central Illinois at first. If this does
materialize, an expansion east into the overnight is likely before
a gradual shift and fade eastward Friday morning. The ECMWF
overall supports this solution, with over half of its ensemble
members producing over two inches by Friday morning across parts
o northern Illinois. While the NCEP models develop more of an MCS
from the IA/MO border eastward into the area late, they also
produce large QPF values. So while confidence on exact morphology
is low, did boost PoPs and rainfall amounts given the signal.
Periods of heavy rainfall rates are favored given warm rain
process ingredients, such as 700 mb Tds of a beefy 5C, and these
rates will be sharply increased within convection which there
looks to be plenty of. There is uncertainty on how much of the CWA
gets into a heavy rain duration a large part of the night, but
where that occurs there could be a mesoscale area of 3 inches of
rain by the end of Friday morning. Will again have to watch for
moisture robbing effect of any widespread convection, and our
northern CWA is most susceptible to this and potentially missing
some of the bigger QPF, but no clear cut signal at all for that at
this time.

There is some agreement on a break midday and/or afternoon Friday
for at least northern areas, but again that can easily be
modulated the opposite direction by just one little perturbation
that is too far out to resolve at this time. The surface cold
front is forecast to be near the Illinois/Wisconsin border Friday,
and depending on convective effects may make it down the lake
turning winds onshore and supporting some cooler temperatures
than forecast for Chicago on Friday afternoon.

.LONG TERM...

Friday night through Wednesday...

243 AM...Primary forecast concern and challenge remains heavy
rain potential, rain amounts and severe potential through the
weekend.

Not much change in the overall expectations for Friday night
through Sunday morning. A frontal boundary in the area or nearby
and rounds of convection, each one dependent on the previous and
other ongoing rounds. Dewpoints remain in the lower 70s, possibly
pooling into the mid 70s along any stronger frontal boundary and
precipitable water values of 2 to 2.5 inches are still expected.
All of this supports the potential for torrential rainfall across
the entire area. Unfortunately, timing and location remains
uncertain and as a result, fairly high pops are warranted for many
time periods. WPC will be highlighting all of the area for a
slight risk for flooding for both Friday and Saturday with a
moderate risk centered across central IL Friday, clipping part of
the southern cwa. Rainfall amounts Friday night through Sunday
morning from the models show a large swath of 3-6 inches across
central IL with 1-3 inches across the northern cwa and these
amounts would be in addition to what falls through Friday
afternoon. Thus, these outlooks look on track and added locally
heavy rainfall through Sunday morning. The severe potential is
looking more limited and will also depend on the position of
various boundaries.

From Sunday onward, trends are fairly uncertain. A large upper
trough will remain from the northern Plains across the Great Lakes
region with various disturbances moving across the region. Models
continue to close off an upper low over the Plains by Tuesday and
now are closing off a second upper low by the end of next week,
somewhere from the northern Plains to the western Great Lakes.
Chance pops warranted for the entire extended period. cms

.AVIATION...
For the 18Z TAFs...

Aviation Weather Concerns
* Widespread thunderstorms this afternoon, especially south of I-80
* Continued gusty winds this afternoon
* MVFR ceilings developing overnight, with possible IFR ceilings
* Threat of heavy rain and isolated thunderstorms Friday

Showers and thunderstorms continue to move through northeastern
IL/northwestern IN, mainly southeast of I-55. Another area of
showers is moving in from the west. These will initially remain
primarily showers, but isolated thunderstorms will form later this
afternoon with these showers. The area is expected to continue to
move east-northeast. Winds will be from the south with non-
thunderstorms gusts in the lower 20 kt range, although occasional
gusts in the upper 20 kt is possible. Cloud ceilings are remaining
VFR between 3500 to 4000 ft, with occasional MVFR CIGs in
showers/storms. This overall area of showers/storms will move east
of Lake Michigan by late afternoon.

Models indicate that ceilings will lower tonight to MVFR at around
1500 ft working west to east after sunset as winds become slightly
weaker, but remaining from the south. Isolated showers may pop up
over north IL late evening, while isolated thunderstorms are
possible with these showers after midnight. Confidence in location
of these showers and storms is low, but I expect most of northern IL
/ northwestern IN will see showers/thunderstorms, especially south
of I-90. MVFR ceilings are expected to remain throughout Thursday
night into Friday morning and early afternoon.

Showers/storms will shift slightly south of I-88 late Friday morning
/ early afternoon before shifting north again by late Friday
afternoon. Ceilings are expected to rise back to VFR by Friday mid-
afternoon. Winds will be gusty once again, but not as gusty as
today, with gusts at or below 20 kt expected. The rain associated
with these storms may be heavy and steady throughout Friday,
restricting visibilities to MVFR conditions. These heavy showers and
storms are expected to continue into Friday evening.
