AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LINCOLN IL 230 PM CDT SUN JUN 18 2006 .DISCUSSION... SHORT TERM MODELS IN FAIRLY GOOD AGREEMENT AGAIN THIS PACKAGE THROUGH 48HRS WITH DIFFERENCES SHOWING UP BY TUESDAY AFTERNOON WITH PLACEMENT OF A WARM FRONT AND THE END RESULTS BY MID WEEK. MAIN QUESTIONS THIS PACKAGE WILL REVOLVE AROUND TIMING AND CHANCES OF PCPN THROUGH THE PERIOD AND TEMPERATURES AFTER THIS FIRST FRONT COMES THROUGH. IN THE LONG TERM...BOTH THE GFS AND ECMWF CONTINUE TO BE VERY SIMILAR...WITH THE DGEX NOT TOO FAR OFF AS WELL. ALL MODELS DO BRING ANOTHER COLD FRONT THROUGH LATE IN THE WEEK...WHICH BRINGS IN COOLER AND SLIGHTLY DRIER WEATHER FOR NEXT WEEKEND. SHORT TERM...TONIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY... CONVECTION HAS ALREADY FIRED ACRS SOUTHERN IL THIS AFTERNOON AND WILL CONTINUE ACRS THE AREA INTO THIS EVENING. BEST INSTABILITY IS IN THE SOUTHEAST TOWARD THE WABASH RIVER/IND BORDER...SO STORMS HAVE YET TO TAP INTO THE BEST JUICE. SVR WATCH FOR SOUTHEASTERN 13 COUNTIES WILL CONTINUE UNTIL 8PM. AFTER THIS WAVE OF PCPN MOVES THROUGH THE AREA...REMAINDER OF THE EVENING WILL LIKELY BE DRY. HOWEVER...THE UPPER LVL JET HAS KICKED OFF SOME CONVECTION IN EASTERN NEB/WRN IA THIS AFTERNOON AND THIS SHOULD ARRIVE INTO THE AREA AFTER MIDNIGHT. SO WILL KEEP CHC OF THUNDERSTORMS GOING AFTER MIDNIGHT. THE MAIN UPPER LVL TROUGH WILL PUSH THROUGH TOMORROW...BUT BEST MOISTURE WILL HAVE MOVED EAST BY THEN. WILL ONLY CARRY SLIGHT CHC OF PCPN IN THE GRIDS FOR THAT AND NOT HAVE ANYTHING IN THE WORDING. THE SFC FRONT WILL NOT GET VERY FAR SOUTH OF THE AREA AND THEN BEGIN TO RETURN AS A WARM FRONT BY TUE INTO TUE NIGHT. MODLS SEEM TO INDICATE THE POSSIBILITY OF AN MCS DEVELOPING WEST OF THE AREA TUE NIGHT AND MOVING DOWN INTO THE AREA UNDER NORTHWESTERLY FLOW. SO WILL ADD A SLIGHT CHANCE OF PCPN FOR TUE AS THE WARM FRONT RETURNS AND THEN HAVE CHC POPS FOR TUE NIGHT INTO WED. TEMPS WILL COOL ONLY A TAD AS MOST OF THE CWA REMAINS IN THE WARM SECTOR THROUGH MID WEEK. HAVE GONE A COUPLE OF DEGS ABOVE GUIDANCE FOR THE FIRST COUPLE OF DAYS. LONG TERM...THURSDAY THROUGH SUNDAY... IN THE LONG TERM...THE OVERALL PATTERN WILL REMAIN SOMEWHAT ZONAL...KEEPING THE STROM TRACK NORTH OF THE AREA. HOWEVER...WITH WEAK FLOW OVER THE STATE...THIS WILL ALLOW A FRONTAL BOUNDARY TO SAG SOUTH INTO THE AREA THUR AND CONTINUE TOWARD THE WEEKEND. SO WILL CONT CHANCES OF PCPN THROUGH MOST OF THE WEEK. THE FRONT SHOULD SAG ENOUGH SOUTH TO REDUCE POPS TO BELOW CHC CATEGORY FOR FRI NIGHT THROUGH SAT...THEN DRY THE REMAINDER OF THE WEEKEND. TEMPS WILL REMAIN WARM FOR MOST OF THE WEEK AS THE AREA WILL BE INTRENCHED IN THE WARM SECTOR. AFTER THE FRONT SAGS SOUTH OF THE AREA LATE IN THE WEEK...TEMPS WILL FALL TO BELOW NORMAL FOR THE WEEKEND. && .ILX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... NONE. && AUTEN
