What forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this wind chill advisory went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Chicago, IL wrote its last area forecast discussion before this wind chill advisory went out at Feb 13, 4:26 AM EST, 7 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Feb 13, 4:26 AM EST, 7 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Chicago/Romeoville, IL 326 AM CST Sat Feb 13 2021 .SHORT TERM... 326 AM CST Through Sunday... Wind Chills: We have issued wind chill headlines for the area for tonight through Sunday morning. A strong 1045 mb arctic high will gradually build southeastward over the Dakotas tonight, and into parts of the Upper Midwest Sunday night. The placement of this surface high will favor a prolonged period of breezy northerly winds and a push of much colder air into our area into early next week. Temperatures will drop well below zero tonight, especially over my Illinois counties where actual air temperatures down into the single digits below zero are expected. These temperatures combined with northerly winds of 10 to 15 mph will create dangerous wind chills of 20 to 35 below zero, with the lowest wind chills expected in the wind chill warning area late tonight into Sunday morning. Little improvement is expected on Sunday, as actual air temperatures struggle to climb into the single digits above zero. Continued breezy conditions will keep wind chills in the -10 to -20 range for most of my Illinois counties through the day, before dropping back into the -20 to -25 range Sunday evening and night. For this reason, it is likely that wind chill advisory headlines for at least parts of my area will need to be extended to include the Sunday afternoon through Monday morning timeframe. Since it appears unlikely that a wind chill warning will be needed after midday Sunday we opted to hold off on issuing wind chill headlines past this time. Snow Trends Today: A large swath of light snow stretches from Colorado to Illinois and east into Michigan, with a couple of slightly more intense bands of snow appearing on the radar, one south of I-80, and other on the Illinois/Wisconsin state line. Presently the right entry region of a jet max continues to provide support for light snow over our forecast area, but isentropic ascent is evident both over us and further west, and it the primary snow mechanism for sites west. So even when the jet stream is no longer in a favorable supporting location, we can expect to continue to see some light snow lingering into Saturday later afternoon / early evening. A strong (1043 mb) surface high pressure remains to our northwest, giving us continued north-northwest winds. Our northwesterly winds are assisting with a narrow band of convergence/snow on the lake, with east-northeasterly winds on the Michigan slide of the lake. Overall northerly flow is pushing some of this snow into northern Porter County, where we continue to have a Winter Weather Advisory. This band of snow may temporarily wave over towards the shore of Lake County, Indiana, before osculating once again towards Porter County. Presently conditions supporting snow are expected to move east of our area late this afternoon/early this evening, although we may see one last period of slightly better snow as a vort max moves over our region mid-afternoon, primarily in northern counties. Afterwards lift and moisture moves to our east, along with the snow, with the exception of Porter County, which may have another hour or so of lake enhanced snow. As this weather system moves east, we will see a slight increase in our northerly winds, with gusts from 15 to 20 mph possible Saturday evening. Cloud cover will decrease fairly quickly Saturday overnight, but are expected to return by Sunday afternoon as our next weather system approaches. KJB/BKL && .LONG TERM... 315 AM CST Sunday night through Friday... The hearty winter pattern of frequent snow and well below normal temperatures continues through the first half of the coming week. Afterward this gives way to, well, less frequent snow chances and not as far below normal temperatures. We get the sense many of the public will take that right now! As noted in the Short Term Discussion, Sunday night will very likely be headed for another Wind Chill Advisory for at least much of the Illinois CWA as the pressure gradient remains tight east of the Arctic high. While more cloud cover than tonight may keep temperatures a bit higher, the still subzero or near subzero readings with 10-15 mph winds will yield wind chills -15 to -20. Sunday night into Monday will also see the baroclinic zone between 700 and 850 mb remain fairly tight aloft and draped across the southern and eastern CWA. A subtle disturbance within broad upper jet maxima coupling, and a resulting weak to moderate strengthening of frontogenesis is forecast Sunday night into Monday morning. Light synoptic snow may be seen with this, though uncertainty on how much footprint in our area, and low-level dry air infiltrating from the north may suppress this. Also of note for this Sunday night into Monday period (as well as into Monday night and possibly Tuesday morning) is lake effect snow. For that first period, north-to-south oriented low-level convergence is once again depicted to work its way into the middle of lake and point into northwest Indiana. Conceptually with the placement of the upstream high over Minnesota (slightly north of our latitude) and low pressure near the Mid-Atlantic shore (slightly south of our latitude), this makes sense. Lake effect parameters, as have been and look to be the case throughout this cold air outbreak, are not off the charts by any means, but should be enough to provide near continues lake effect snow showers in a zone into far northwest Indiana. Multiple inches of snow are likely in at least localized places, but obviously this is dependent that this setup becomes firmly established. A mid to upper level short wave larger in scale than its predecessor is forecast by the global guidance to move neutrally tilted across the nation's midsection Monday afternoon and evening and become more negatively oriented, though dampening, into the southern Great Lakes by Tuesday morning. The warm advection aloft with this looks to be maximized further southeast, with synoptic forcing overhead being more developing deformation-ish. This would be more light snow resulting, and again the southern and eastern CWA are the more favored areas. The 00Z EC ensemble has shifted slightly southeast with this more in the line with the GEFS, keeps the better chances for non-lake effect liquid equivalent QPF greater than 0.1 in the far south and east. Lake effect, or quasi-lake enhanced snow depending on how far north the synoptic forcing spreads, will also continue to be present Monday night. Parameters actually look a little better, and the pressure pattern bends some to favor this more toward the Illinois/Indiana border and even into Cook County, including Chicago. Will need to watch this for potential impacts to the Monday evening and/or Tuesday morning commute with a few inches possible. In any areas that have more permanent residence time in this somewhat prolonged episodic lake effect snow from Sunday through Tuesday morning, is parameters are lined up well and the high ratios are realized, there could be 4-6 inches or so in some lake adjacent locations. With the mesoscale nature though, too much uncertainty yet by far to start tossing out amounts in non- technical messaging, such as Weather Stories. The cold continues Monday and Tuesday, with either of those nights having low temperatures highly dependent on cloud cover. Confidence is clouds Monday night is higher while Tuesday night may be clear with diminishing winds to result in some favorable outlying northern Illinois locations making a run at -10. Beyond in time, moderation will occur though in the absence of any stronger, synoptically driven southwest low-level flow, do not see over this deep snowpack being able to go much above mid 30s, and those readings are only indicated in the guidance envelope just beyond the official NWS forecast (so next weekend). MTF && .AVIATION... For the 06Z TAFs... Primary forecast concern remains light snow through Saturday afternoon with associated cigs/vis. Light snow developed this evening with visibilities generally in the 1-3sm range, lowest along a vys/jot/gyy line. Light snow will continue overnight with 1-2sm vis expected. Some uncertainty for when snow will begin at rfd but light snow is expected there by the predawn hours. Low mvfr cigs are expected to develop overnight and continue into Saturday. Some ifr cigs are likely where the heaviest snow falls, generally along the line noted above, vys/lot/gyy. Some of the guidance is showing a lull developing around daybreak before another period of light snow returns during the mid/late morning. Visibilities would likely improve quite a bit if a lull does develop but confidence is too low to try to show any improvement with this forecast. Vis would likely lower back into the 1-2sm range with light snow mid morning to mid afternoon when the snow will taper off to flurries and end from west to east. Mvfr cigs are expected to quickly scatter late Saturday afternoon into early Saturday evening. North/northwest winds around 10kt will continue into Saturday afternoon, possibly briefly higher. Speeds are expected to increase into the 10-15kt range Saturday afternoon and continue Saturday evening along with some gusts into the 15-20kt range expected, though some uncertainty for how prevailing these gusts will become. The falling snow will have ended by the time these winds increase but some low drifting snow will be possible Saturday night. cms && .LOT WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... IL...None.
