What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this winter storm 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 winter storm warning went out at Jan 31, 11:11 AM CST, 4 hours 7 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jan 31, 11:11 AM CST, 4 hours 7 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Lincoln IL
1111 AM CST Mon Jan 31 2022

.SYNOPSIS...
Issued at 251 AM CST Mon Jan 31 2022

Dry and warmer weather will be on tap across central Illinois
today as afternoon high temperatures reach the upper 30s and lower
40s. After that, attention turns to a storm system that will
bring significant snow accumulations to the region Tuesday night
through Thursday.

&&

.UPDATE...
Issued at 1052 AM CST Mon Jan 31 2022

Minimal changes made in the short term with the focus being on the
long-duration, significant winter storm that will impact the area
Tuesday night into Thursday. The latest 12Z guidance suggests that
some modifications will likely be needed in the Tuesday night
through Wednesday morning time period (round 1). Slightly higher QPF
amounts are being suggested where mid-level frontogenesis and upper-
level jet dynamics coincide. No changes to headlines will be made at
this time, though coordination with neighboring offices will
determine potential upgrades by this afternoon.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(Today and tonight)
ISSUED AT 251 AM CST Mon Jan 31 2022

As high pressure drifts into the Ohio River Valley, southeasterly
return flow will bring warmer conditions into central Illinois
today. Skies will initially be sunny, followed by an increase in
mid/high clouds late in the day. Thanks to the sunshine and
southerly winds, afternoon highs will climb into the upper 30s and
lower 40s. Lows tonight will only drop into the lower to middle
30s under partly to mostly cloudy skies.

.LONG TERM...(Tuesday through Sunday)
ISSUED AT 251 AM CST Mon Jan 31 2022

As has been advertised for the past several days, the main
forecast challenge continues to be the prolonged period of wintry
precipitation expected by mid-week. 00z Jan 31 models have come
into better agreement...with all solutions showing a distinct
northern shift to the heavy snowfall axis.

A cold front will settle southward on Tuesday and will stall just
south of I-70 by Wednesday morning. Rain will gradually change to
snow everywhere along/north of a Champaign to Taylorville line by
daybreak Wednesday...with a swath of 2 to 4-inch snow accumulations
from the Illinois River eastward to I-55 by the Wednesday morning
commute. A mixed bag of freezing rain, sleet, and snow will be in
place along a Paris to Shelbyville line...with rain further south.
As the cold front slips further south, the icy precip will
eventually reach I-70 by late afternoon.

There will likely be a lull in precip rates Wednesday afternoon
and evening as the strongest forcing shifts eastward away from the
region. However, a second stronger wave will interact with the
boundary late Wednesday night into Thursday morning...producing
another round of heavy wintry precipitation. Based on forecast
soundings, it appears locations along/south of I-70 will see a mix
of freezing rain and sleet...with ice accumulations potentially
reaching one quarter of an inch. Further north, snow will be the
primary precip type across the remainder of central Illinois.

While it is still too early to pinpoint exact storm total snow
accumulations from this prolonged event, amounts in excess of 8
inches will be likely everywhere north of a Danville to
Taylorville line...with the possible exception of Knox/Stark
counties. As a result of growing confidence of a significant
winter weather event and major travel concerns, will be issuing a
Winter Storm Watch for the entire KILX CWA...beginning late
Tuesday evening across the northern two-thirds of the area and
beginning Wednesday evening south of I-70.

Once the system departs, cold and dry weather will prevail by the
end of the week.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Tuesday afternoon)
Issued at 1111 AM CST Mon Jan 31 2022

VFR conditions for much of the forecast. A cold front approaching
from the northwest will bring a good chance of MVFR ceilings
toward the end of this TAF cycle (15-18z/Tue) and spotty showers
will develop around that time. Conditions will quickly
deteriorate to IFR ceiling/visibility near or just after 18z. Low
level wind shear will dominate the entire area tonight ahead of
the front. Southeast winds gusting near 20 kt this afternoon veer
south tonight through midday Tuesday, gusting up to 25 kt.

&&

.ILX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
Winter Storm Watch from Wednesday evening through Thursday
evening for ILZ067-068-071>073.

Winter Storm Watch from Tuesday evening through Thursday evening
for ILZ027>031-036>038-040>055.
