.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 143 AM CDT Sat Apr 19 2025

Well the cap never broke this past evening. However, the storms from
southwest of the CWA have finally arrived this morning. A slight
risk for severe weather still exists for central and southeastern IL
through 12z, so a few of these storms could be strong-to-severe.
Primarily watching out for damaging winds and 1 inch hail. The
passing cold front will stall out over central IL today. We are
still expecting heavy showers and potentially strong storms into the
morning. Showers, heavy at times, will continue into the afternoon
for areas near and south of I-72. CAMs show a break in the rain from
00z to 10z Sunday. Then as the boundary lifts back north as a warm
front, more rain and thunderstorms enter the forecast area.

The warm front is connected to a secondary low pressure system that
will lift northeastward Sunday. More severe weather is forecast for
much of the day, Sunday. There looks to be a morning round
associated with the warm front, and then an evening round with the
cold front passage. Sunday's severe threat looks to be a classic
high shear / low CAPE day. Highest shear will be located closest to
the triple point region, with a few hundred J/kg of CAPE ahead of
the front. SPC has a slight risk for the southwest portion of the
CWA and a marginal risk as far east as the I-57 corridor. There
is an enhanced (level 3 out of 5) risk for severe weather just to
the west of Schuyler and Scott counties.

The rainfall from this morning to Monday morning from the multiple
rounds of showers and thunderstorms is forecast to be from 1-2
inches. The HREF has a 70% chance of more than 1.5 inches of rain
along the I-70 corridor through Sunday evening. Creeks and streams
may become stressed with the additional rainfall, especially if they
are already quite high from the previous weeks.

Beyond Monday morning, a high pressure settles in for Monday and
Tuesday, bringing calmer weather. Then several more rounds of rain
are possible through the rest of the work week as multiple waves
pass overhead. The next week will be above normal temperature-wise,
with highs in the 70s to near 80s and lows in the 50s to 60s.

.AVIATION...  (For the 06z TAFs through 06z Saturday Night)
Issued at 1212 AM CDT Sat Apr 19 2025

A slow moving cold front is in the process of moving across central
Illinois late tonight, roughly positioned just east of the I-55
corridor as of midnight. South-southwest winds ahead of the front
will shift to the west-northwest behind it with speeds of around
15 kts or less. A cluster of storms in southern Missouri will lift
northeast overnight, spreading showers and storms into the area
roughly between 08-12Z. The better chances for thunderstorms will
be south of the terminals. However, did add PROB30 groups for
-TSRA at KSPI and KDEC for the isolated threat of lightning.

MVFR ceilings will be common overnight and linger into Saturday.
Some improvements to ceilings should be seen over the northern half
of Illinois by Saturday afternoon, but the previously mentioned cold
front will stall out near the I-70 corridor, keeping low stratus in
place over parts of central and southern Illinois through the end of
the TAF period.
