BumgardnerWhat 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 31, 3:43 AM CDT, 1 hour 53 minutes earlier. Its key messages:
- A few thunderstorms will develop Tuesday night as a warm front lifts through the region. The storms will be most numerous along/west of I-55 where a low probability (15% chance) for damaging wind gusts and large hail exists after midnight.
- A more significant severe weather event will unfold on Wednesday. The latest SPC outlook indicates an Enhanced Risk (level 3 of 5) for damaging wind gusts, large hail, and tornadoes.
- Multiple rounds of showers and thunderstorms will lead to a risk for excessive rainfall along/south of I-70 Wednesday night through Saturday.

Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Lincoln IL 343 AM CDT Mon Mar 31 2025 .KEY MESSAGES... - A few thunderstorms will develop Tuesday night as a warm front lifts through the region. The storms will be most numerous along/west of I-55 where a low probability (15% chance) for damaging wind gusts and large hail exists after midnight. - A more significant severe weather event will unfold on Wednesday. The latest SPC outlook indicates an Enhanced Risk (level 3 of 5) for damaging wind gusts, large hail, and tornadoes. - Multiple rounds of showers and thunderstorms will lead to a risk for excessive rainfall along/south of I-70 Wednesday night through Saturday. && .SHORT TERM...(Today through Tuesday) Issued at 343 AM CDT Mon Mar 31 2025 08z/3am surface analysis shows a cold front from the eastern Great Lakes to the Tennessee River Valley while a ridge of high pressure builds into the Plains. Despite FROPA, widespread low clouds blanket central Illinois...with the back edge of the cloud shield over northern Iowa. Timing of the clearing trend will be a bit tricky today:however, based on the latest satellite trends showing clouds beginning to scatter across central Iowa, think skies will become partly sunny across the Illinois River Valley by mid-morning then further east to the I-55 corridor by around midday. Further east, clouds will hold firm until gradually scattering during the afternoon. Thanks to cloud cover and brisk northwesterly winds gusting 15-25mph, high temperatures will be several degrees below normal for this time of year in the upper 40s and lower 50s. As the high shifts eastward and winds become light/variable, radiational cooling will allow lows tonight to bottom out in the upper 20s and lower 30s. Any sensitive outdoor plants should be protected or brought inside to avoid possible damage. After a sunny start to the day, clouds will be on the increase from west to east during the day Tuesday as high temperatures climb into the middle to upper 50s. Barnes .LONG TERM...(Wednesday through Sunday) Issued at 343 AM CDT Mon Mar 31 2025 The next significant storm system to impact the Midwest will begin to approach from the west Tuesday night. A powerful 850mb jet will develop in advance of the system from the southern Plains into Iowa/Illinois overnight, with the 00z NAM showing the core of the jet increasing to 60-70kt. With rapid moisture return from the western Gulf, corresponding MUCAPE values will exceed 1000J/kg. Given ample elevated instability and steepening lapse rates, think scattered storms associated with a warm front lifting northward through central Illinois will be capable of producing gusty winds and hail. The storms will be most numerous across the western half of the KILX CWA...especially along/west of I-55 where SPC indicates a Slight Risk for severe after midnight. Once the overnight convection lifts northward, central Illinois will punch into the warm sector of the system with strong/gusty southerly winds boosting temperatures into the 70s and surface dewpoints into the lower to middle 60s on Wednesday. Corresponding SBCAPE values will reach the 1500-2000J/kg range from midday through the afternoon. Meanwhile powerful winds aloft will contribute to 0-6km bulk shear values of 60-80kt. While surface low pressure will track well NW of Illinois, its trailing cold front will interact with the moderately unstable/highly sheared environment to trigger a potentially significant severe weather event. Supercell thunderstorms will develop along the front and/or outflow left behind by the overnight storms across the Illinois River Valley by late morning...then will congeal into a line and shift eastward across the remainder of central Illinois during the afternoon into the early evening. All severe hazards will be in play with these storms...including damaging wind gusts, large hail, and tornadoes. Stay tuned to later forecasts for more precise details and timing. The cold front will settle southward and stall across the Ohio River Valley Wednesday night as it becomes parallel to the upper level flow. As has been advertised by the past several model runs, the front will remain quasi-stationary from Wednesday night through Saturday night before a pattern change pushes it well south of the region by Sunday. Individual short-wave troughs interacting with the boundary in conjunction with the nocturnal low-level jet will lead to numerous rounds of showers and thunderstorms focused across the Ohio River Valley. While the GFS tends to keep the front locked in place and produces repeated rains over the same locations, the ECMWF suggests the boundary will waver north/south, resulting in rainfall more evenly distributed. Whichever solution ultimately verifies, consensus suggests a potentially extreme rainfall event across the Ohio River Valley. 00z Mar 31 ECMWF EFI for QPF focuses values in excess of 0.8 along the Ohio River Valley both Wednesday night and Thursday night, then shifts those values northward to the I-70 corridor for Friday night into Saturday. Current WPC QPF forecast keeps the most extreme rainfall amounts south of the KILX CWA closer to the Ohio River: however, 7-day amounts potentially greater than 5 inches come as far north as I-70. Storm total rainfall steadily decreases further N/NW, with 7-day accumulations of just 1-2 inches along/northwest of I-55. The bottom line: the Wednesday through Saturday time period will be decidedly wet and unsettled across much of the region. Barnes && .AVIATION... (For the 06z TAFs through 06z Monday Night) Issued at 1200 AM CDT Mon Mar 31 2025 MVFR ceilings dominate the central IL terminals tonight. The back edge of this cloud deck is currently over southern MN and northwest IA, and should cross central IL between 16-19z. After that, VFR for the remainder of the forecast. West winds gusting around 25 kt on the back side of low pressure, will veer northwest toward sunrise, with gustiness tending to dissipate toward midday. 25 && .ILX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
