AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NORTHERN INDIANA
337 PM EDT SAT MAY 28 2011

.SHORT TERM...
TONIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT.

...HEAVY RAIN THREAT AND POSSIBLE SEVERE STORMS TONIGHT INTO
SUNDAY...

AREA OF SHOWERS IS ENTERING SW PARTS OF THE CWA AS OF WRITING WAS
MOVING INTO SOUTHWESTERN AREAS. LIGHTNING NOTED EARLIER HAS ENDED AS
SHOWERS ENCOUNTERING LOWER INSTABILITIES AND SUPPORT AWAY FROM BEST
LLJ. AREAS OF STORMS ONGOING ACROSS PORTIONS OF CENTRAL AND EAST
CENTRAL ILLINOIS WHERE CLUSTER OF RATHER IMPRESSIVE LOOKING
SUPERCELLS HAVE BEEN MOVING EAST ACROSS THESE AREAS WHERE SVR WATCH
WAS JUST ISSUED. ADDITIONAL STORMS DEVELOPING ACROSS WEST CENTRAL
ILLINOIS INTO IOWA AND MISSOURI MOVING NORTHEAST. EXPECTING AREA
MOVING IN TO SLOWLY WEAKEN OVER TIME. WILL HANDLE WITH PRE 1ST
PERIOD.

NAM12/WRF POINTING TOWARDS CONVECTION ACROSS MISSOURI/IOWA/ILLINOIS
INCREASING AND MOVING ACROSS MAINLY NW HALF. HOWEVER BOTH MODELS
HAVE DONE POORLY HANDLING CONVECTION THAT WAS ALREADY UNDERWAY
SHORTLY AFTER 12Z SO CONFIDENCE IS LOW. LAST SEVERAL RUNS OF THE
HRRR HAVE HAD THE OVERALL IDEA ON CURRENT LAYOUT OF CONVECTION. THIS
MODEL TENDS TO DEVELOP SEVERAL WAVES OF SHOWERS AND STORMS AND FOCUS
THEM OVER TIME INTO SE AREAS. GIVEN RADAR TRENDS BOTH SCENARIOS ARE
PLAUSIBLE BUT CONCERNED THAT STRONGER CONVECTION ACROSS CENTRAL
ILLINOIS MAKE KEEP BEST FEED OF MSTR AND LL INFLOW LIMITED UNTIL
LATER TONIGHT. CAPES WILL BE RATHER LOW TONIGHT BEING NORTH OF THE
WARM FRONT BUT THREAT FOR HAIL AND HEAVY RAIN DEFINITELY EXISTS. ALL
SIGNS WOULD POINT TOWARDS SOME RATHER EFFICIENT PRECIP PRODUCING
STORMS TONIGHT GIVEN INCREASING FLOW AND PWATS ABOVE 1.5 INCHES
LATER TONIGHT INTO SUNDAY. WILL CONTINUE WITH LIKELY POPS FOR ALL
BUT FAR S LOCATIONS AND THROW IN MENTION OF HEAVY RAIN. CAT POPS
WILL LIKELY BE NEEDED AT SOME POINT BUT WITH CONVECTIVE EVOLUTION
NOT CLEAR FEEL IT IS BETTER TO HOLD OFF. SVR THREAT WOULD
EXIST...MAINLY IN THE FORM OF LARGE HAIL AND LOCALLY DAMAGING WIND
GUSTS GIVEN LIKELY ELEVATED NATURE. HYDRO CONCERNS LOOM GIVEN
SATURATED CONDITIONS. FFG GUIDANCE VALUES HAVE COME UP ACROSS THE
AREA BUT FEEL THEY SHOULD BE A BIT LOWER. AFTER GOOD COORDINATION
FROM SURROUNDING OFFICES WILL HOLD OFF ON ANY WATCHES UNTIL
EVOLUTION IS CLEARER. LOWS TONIGHT WILL BOTTOM OUT IN THE 60S.

WARM FRONT WILL MOVE THROUGH DURING THE DAY SUNDAY. MODELS WANT TO
SPEED THE FRONT NORTH BUT KEEP STRONG CAPPING BACK UNTIL LATE
AFTERNOON. CONCERNED THAT OVERNIGHT CONVECTION MAY SLOW THE
NORTHWARD MIXING OF THE FRONT. FAVORABLE SVR CONDITIONS COULD TAKE
SHAPE IN THE AFTERNOON DEPENDING ON PROXIMITY OF FRONT. WILL STICK
WITH IDEA OF PREV GRIDS AT THIS POINT WITH JUST A BIT OF A NORTHWARD
PUSH. AREAS IN THE WARM SECTOR SHOULD SEE NO PROBLEM CLIMBING INTO
THE 80S BUT AMOUNT OF CLOUD COVER AROUND INITIALLY MAY HINDER WARM
UP TILL AFTERNOON. ALL PCPN CHANCES WILL BE GONE SUNDAY NIGHT AS
STRONG EML WILL BE IN PLACE ACROSS THE AREA. LOWS WILL DROP BACK
INTO THE MIDDLE 60S.

&&

.LONG TERM...MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY

FORECAST AREA WILL BE FIRMLY IN WARM SECTOR ON MONDAY WITH SFC WARM
FRONT EXPECTED TO STALL OR SLOW ACROSS THE NORTHERN GREAT LAKES
REGION. IMPRESSIVE MID LEVEL THERMAL RIDGING NOTED AMONG ALL
AVAILABLE GUIDANCE WITH 700 HPA TEMPS HOVERING IN THE +10 TO +12 DEG
CELSIUS RANGE. THUS...CAPPING SHOULD REMAIN IN PLACE ACROSS THE
LOCAL AREA ON MONDAY WITH CONTINUED SOUTH SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW. MIXING
NOT PARTICULARLY DEEP ON MONDAY GIVEN VERY WARM LOW/MID LEVELS BUT
EVEN MIXING TO 900 HPA SHOULD YIELD HIGHS AROUND 90. MAIN UPPER
LEVEL LOW ACROSS THE NORTHERN ROCKIES SHOULD BECOME MORE
PROGRESSIVE BY MONDAY NIGHT INTO EARLY TUESDAY AS AN UPPER LEVEL JET
STREAK CUTS THROUGH BASE OF THIS TROUGH AND LIFTS NORTHEAST THROUGH
THE NORTHERN PLAINS. SOME COOLING IN THE MIDLEVELS IS EXPECTED ON
TUESDAY AS MID LEVEL THERMAL RIDGE SHIFTS EAST OF THE AREA. BY LATE
TUESDAY AFTERNOON AS SFC TEMPERATURES WARM CLOSE TO 90 AGAIN...CIN
SHOULD BE QUITE SMALL...ESPECIALLY ACROSS NORTHWEST PORTIONS OF THE
FORECAST AREA WHERE SLIGHTLY COOLER MID LEVELS ARE EXPECTED. CHANCES
OF STORMS STILL APPEAR TO BE RATHER MINIMAL TUESDAY AFTERNOON GIVEN
SFC TROUGH AND STRONGER LOW LEVEL CONVERGENCE REMAINING TO THE
WEST...AND CONTINUED OVERALL WEAK MID/UPPER LEVEL FORCING.

UPPER LEVEL LOW WILL CONTINUE NORTHEASTWARD ACROSS SOUTHERN ONTARIO
TUESDAY NIGHT...EVENTUALLY DRAGGING COOL FRONT EASTWARD ACROSS THE
AREA OVERNIGHT. HOWEVER...BEING SO FAR DIVORCED FROM STRONGER
FORCING ACROSS NORTH CENTRAL TIER OF CONUS/SOUTH CENTRAL
CANADA....FRONTAL CONVERGENCE APPEARS TO BE QUITE WEAK ON TUESDAY
NIGHT. WHILE CAP DOES ERODE LATE TUESDAY AFTERNOON/TUESDAY EVENING
HAVE SOME CONCERN THAT STABILIZING BOUNDARY LAYER WILL OFFSET
INCREASED INSTABILITY GAINED FROM CAP EROSION. STILL FEEL THAT
BETTER CHANCE OF STORMS WILL REMAIN WEST AND NORTH OF THE FORECAST
AREA TUESDAY AFTERNOON AND TUESDAY NIGHT BUT WILL AT LEAST MAINTAIN
LOW CHANCE MENTION FOR TSRA DURING THIS PERIOD.

A SECONDARY UPPER TROUGH WILL PASS THROUGH GREAT LAKES REGION ON
WEDNESDAY ALLOWING FOR BACK DOOR COOL FRONT TO DROP SOUTHWARD ACROSS
THE AREA PROVIDING COOLER CONDITIONS FOR THURSDAY WITH HIGHS
GENERALLY ONLY IN THE MID 70S BY THIS TIME...ALTHOUGH COOLER CLOSER
TO LAKE MICHIGAN WITH ONSHORE FLOW BEHIND THIS BOUNDARY. MID LEVEL
HEIGHT RISES BEGIN TO MOVE BACK IN FOR FRIDAY...AND SOME CONCERN AS
THIS OCCURS COULD GET A PERIOD OF STRONGER LOW LEVEL THETAE
ADVECTION THAT COULD PRODUCE ENOUGH INSTABILITY/FORCING FOR THREAT
OF SOME SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. HOWEVER AT THIS FORECAST DISTANCE
AND SOME LOWER CONFIDENCE IN TIMING THIS STRONGER FORCING HAVE OPTED
TO OMIT FOR NOW.

12Z GFS HAS TRENDED MORE TOWARD ECMWF IDEA IN TERMS OF LESS
AMPLITUDE WITH NEXT EASTERN PACIFIC RIDGE RIDER FOR THE END OF THE
WEEK INTO NEXT WEEKEND...WITH MAINTENANCE OF STRONGER UPPER RIDGING
ACROSS THE CENTRAL PART OF THE COUNTRY. SHOULD SEE A SLOW MODERATION
IN TEMPERATURES AS THIS RIDGE SLOWLY SHIFTS EASTWARD TOWARD THE END
OF THE PERIOD...ALTHOUGH SETUP DOES SEEM CONDUCIVE FOR MORE WEAK
BACKDOOR COLD FRONTS WITH POTENTIAL WAVES DIVING THROUGH NORTHERN
GREAT LAKES AND NORTHEAST CONUS THAT COULD FURTHER DELAY THIS
WARMING. NORTHWEST UPPER FLOW DOWNSTREAM OF THIS RIDGE AXIS COULD
ALSO LEAVE THE AREA VULNERABLE TO A COUPLE OF PERIODS OF THUNDER
CHANCES...BUT VERY DIFFICULT AT THIS TIME TO TRY AND ASSESS THIS
POTENTIAL...SO WILL LEAVE DAYS 6 AND 7 DRY AT THIS TIME AND WAIT FOR
SOME CONSISTENCY IN MEDIUM RANGE MODELS BEFORE INSERTING POPS.

&&

.AVIATION...
VERY TOUGH SET OF TAFS FOR THIS PACKAGE WITH SEVERAL POSSIBLE
SCENARIOS FOR CONVECTIVE ACTIVITY INTO SUNDAY WITH ADVANCING WARM
FRONT. FIRST CONCERN WILL BE WITH AREA OF SHOWERS AND STORMS
MOVING OUT OF ILLINOIS. LIGHTNING HAS SEEMED TO TREND SOMEWHAT
MORE EAST THAN NORTH OVER THE PAST HOUR WITH OVERALL MVMT OF THE
PRECIP ITSELF STILL TO THE NE. HAVE ADDED A PREDOMINATE SHOWER
GROUP FOR A FEW HOURS AT KFWA WITH ONLY A TEMPO AT KSBN GIVEN
LIGHTER RETURNS AND LACK OF REPORTS OF SIG PRECIP ACROSS NORTHERN
ILLINOIS. LOW CLOUDS LOOK TO REMAIN IN PLACE AT BOTH SITES INTO
TONIGHT AND LIKELY UNTIL WARM FRONT MOVES NORTH ON SUNDAY.

OF GREATER CONCERN IS CONVECTIVE POTENTIAL TONIGHT INTO SUNDAY.
WARM FRONT WILL BE WORKING NORTH WITH INCREASING LL FLOW AND
CHANCES FOR CONVECTION. HIGH RES MODELS DEPICT CONVECTION RE-
DEVELOPING TO THE SOUTH AND WEST AND MOVING THIS DIRECTION
TONIGHT. GREATEST AREA OF CONCERN WILL BE MORE TOWARDS KFWA
TONIGHT SHIFTING TO KSBN SUNDAY AS THE FRONT PROGRESSES NORTH.
HAVE KEPT WITH CB MENTION FOR NOW AND WILL HOLD OFF ON ANY FURTHER
DETAIL UNTIL PICTURE BECOMES CLEARER.
