CoppleWhat 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 Apr 1, 8:43 PM CDT, 0 minutes earlier. Its key messages:
- A few thunderstorms will develop tonight as a warm front lifts through the region. The storms will be most numerous along and northwest of a Springfield to Champaign line where a low probability (5-15% chance) for 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 and flooding issues along and south of I-70...where a Flood Watch is in effect from Wednesday afternoon through Sunday morning.

Area Forecast Discussion...Updated National Weather Service Lincoln IL 843 PM CDT Tue Apr 1 2025 .KEY MESSAGES... - A few thunderstorms will develop tonight as a warm front lifts through the region. The storms will be most numerous along and northwest of a Springfield to Champaign line where a low probability (5-15% chance) for 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 and flooding issues along and south of I-70...where a Flood Watch is in effect from Wednesday afternoon through Sunday morning. && .UPDATE... Issued at 842 PM CDT Tue Apr 1 2025 Low pressure is located over Kansas late this evening with a broad region of mid level warm air advection overspreading much of the mid and upper Mississippi Valley ahead of the low. This is driving scattered showers and a few storms across portions of central Illinois. Latest RAP indicates pockets of around 900 J/kg MUCAPE rooted around 750 mb is advecting into the area as well supporting some pockets of deeper convection. In fact, RAP indicates very steep (in excess of 8 C/km) mid level lapse rates are in place which in combination with relatively low (around 8 kft) freezing levels will support some small hail in the strongest storms. Instability will continue to increase overnight with around 1500 J/kg MUCAPE by daybreak Wednesday. A few isolated hailers will continue to be a concern through the night with a gradual increase in threat for marginally severe hail, mainly late tonight. Deubelbeiss && .DISCUSSION... Issued at 346 PM CDT Tue Apr 1 2025 Showers and thunderstorms associated with a warm front lifting into the area early Wednesday morning will develop overnight, with elevated instability steadily increasing to several hundred J/kg by sunrise, which could allow a few storms with large hail to one inch diameter to develop north of I-72. Forecast soundings show a near surface stable layer which should prevent a threat of severe wind gusts at the surface, except perhaps west of a Springfield to Peoria line if a convective complex to the west is able to maintain strength as it rolls into western portions of central IL. This activity should diminish across much of central IL from the late morning into early afternoon, allowing instability to re-develop, at least for portions of central and southeast IL. East of I-55 appears to have more certainty of severe thunderstorm activity developing in the afternoon, with tornadoes, locally damaging winds, and large hail possible. To the west, CAMs are not as unanimous with convective development or significant surface-based CAPE. Nevertheless, there is a conditional threat for severe thunderstorms, and SPC has an Enhanced Risk designated for the entire area, with a threat for a few strong tornadoes centered south of I-72, and a threat for 2+ inch hail, and 75+ mph wind gusts over the entire area. While average precipitation amounts don't appear to be impressive, generally a half inch, CAMs suggest a threat for localized 2 inch corridors in stronger storms and WPC has a Marginal to Slight Risk for excessive rainfall from near I-55 eastward. Timing of re-development remains uncertain, but earliest appears to be 1-2 PM and latest 4-6 PM, with similar uncertainty in location, perhaps well west of the IL River, or perhaps well east of I-55. As the associated low pressure system deepens and lifts into the upper Midwest Wednesday, strong pressure gradients will develop into central IL and mixing aloft will deepen as the warm front lifts north of the area. Strong momentum aloft will begin to mix down, to the surface, and it appears 45 to 50 mph gusts will develop. Current indications are that areas east of I-55 should develop strong winds by mid morning and have the higher gusts during the day, but it may take until after noon for areas west of I-55. Winds should diminish after the associated cold front sweeps eastward across the area. A Wind Advisory has been issued for the entire area...noon to 7 pm west of I-55, and 8 AM to midnight east of I-55. The next few days should see the frontal boundary stall out near the Ohio River, with a series of disturbances propagating along the boundary bringing a threat of extreme rainfall if the heaviest rainfall falls in the same general tracks. At this point, rainfall looks to be focused on southeast IL Thursday night, central and southeast IL Friday afternoon into Friday night, and southeast IL Saturday into Sunday. A Flood Watch is in effect from around I-70 southward, with an outlook for 6-7 inches of total rainfall Wednesday through Saturday night. North of I-72, rainfall amounts of 1 to 3 inches are expected. Temperatures should be mild into the weekend, but cooler air looks to arrive following the active weather period, bringing a threat of sub-freezing lows by early next work week. 37 && .AVIATION... (For the 00z TAFs through 00z Wednesday Evening) Issued at 614 PM CDT Tue Apr 1 2025 A deepening area of low pressure will lift from the central Great Plains this evening to the Upper Midwest Wednesday evening. Strong southeast winds currently in place will gradually veer to the SSW by around midday Wednesday with gusts gradually increasing, peaking near 40kt during the afternoon. LLWS is also expected at times overnight into Tuesday morning as winds just above the surface increase above 50 then 60 kt. There will be several waves of showers and storms possible through the period, though confidence in specific timing remains low. The strongest storms are expected Wednesday afternoon and will likely produce swaths of severe weather in the region. The best chance for these severe storms will be SPI-DEC-CMI with lesser chances farther northwest at PIA and BMI. Deubelbeiss && .ILX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
