MJAWhat forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this river flood warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Lincoln, IL wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at Mar 7, 5:27 AM CST, 3 hours 38 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Mar 7, 5:27 AM CST, 3 hours 38 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Lincoln IL 527 AM CST Mon Mar 7 2022 .SYNOPSIS... Issued at 332 AM CST Mon Mar 7 2022 Additional light precipitation chances will continue this morning with a wintry mix mainly along/west of the Illinois River. Drier weather is expected through midweek as temperatures gradually warm each day. Widespread snow chances look possible Thursday night into Friday. && .SHORT TERM...(Today and tonight) ISSUED AT 332 AM CST Mon Mar 7 2022 Water vapor imagery early this morning depicts a shortwave trough lifting into eastern Iowa with it's associated surface low centered over southeast Indiana. A cold front stretches southward from there with most of the convective activity completely out of our area as of 3 AM. Dry air feeding into the low has stripped our deep saturation and cloud ice, which has put a pause on showers. Low- level saturation remains in place with low stratus present area wide. This paired with broad lift within the vicinity of the upper wave has resulted in drizzle, which can be seen on radar and outside the office window here in Lincoln. Further northwest, snow is falling within the deformation zone where mid-level frontogenesis is present. This will rotate eastward this morning, spreading deeper saturation back into counties mainly along and west of the Illinois River. There could be some wintry mix of sleet/freezing rain before transitioning to light snow as we await the return of cloud ice nuclei. Additional snow amounts of 1-2 inches or less appear possible through midday along/west of the Illinois River. Light ice accumulation of a few hundredths of an inch will be possible as well. A Winter Weather Advisory remains in effect for counties along/west of the Illinois River through noon. Surface high pressure slides southeast into the middle of the country tonight, bringing several days of benign weather. .LONG TERM...(Tuesday through Sunday) ISSUED AT 332 AM CST Mon Mar 7 2022 The surface high moves east of the area going into Tuesday, allowing southerly return flow to bring milder temperatures back northward. A shortwave trough will track through the Ohio River Valley Tuesday night into Wednesday, sending a surface low into the southeast US. Precipitation chances with this feature look to stay south of the area with increased cloudiness being the only impact. Further north, a low will track through southern Ontario, sending a dry cold front through the area going into Wednesday. The front looks to stall out somewhere across the area before lifting back northward ahead of the next system to impact the area. Precipitation chances look to hold off here locally until later in the week. A longwave trough will carve through the western CONUS on Thursday with a northern and southern component noted. A few bits of energy will eject northward along the aforementioned stalled frontal boundary, increasing precipitation chances from the dessert Southwest into the Upper Mississippi River Valley. The northern stream of the trough will swing eastward going into Friday, pushing the front into Illinois. Precipitation looks to start as rain before Canadian high pressure on the backside of the front pushes much colder air into the area, transitioning the ptype to snow. The southern stream of the longwave trough looks to quickly lift northeast, merging with the northern stream and spinning up a potent low pressure system that will lift into the Northeast US. Ensemble guidance continues to point to accumulating snowfall with this system area wide, though there remains considerable spread in amounts. Much colder temperatures look likely Friday into the beginning of the weekend with the potential for overnight lows to dip down into the teens (10-15 degrees below normal). The cold snap looks to be short-lived with temperatures rebounding back near normal to close out the weekend. && .AVIATION...(For the 12Z TAFS through 12Z Tuesday morning) Issued at 527 AM CST Mon Mar 7 2022 Messy conditions are ongoing to start the day with IFR to LIFR flight restrictions across the area. Ceilings less than 1k ft and visbys between 2-5 SM will linger through about midday as a wintry mix of precipitation continues. Precipitation chances should end by late this morning or early afternoon with a slow improvement back to VFR category by this evening. Northwest winds will be breezy today before relaxing tonight as they back to a westerly direction. && .ILX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
