An upper-level disturbance interacting with a slow-moving cold front produced a line of strong to severe thunderstorms during the afternoon and early evening of June 24th. Most of the storms remained along and north of I-72 as they tracked eastward across the area, producing winds of 55 to 65 mph and hail as large as quarters.

The episode as NWS ILX wrote it up.

Most of the storms remained along and north of I-72 as they tracked eastward across the area, producing winds of 55 to 65 mph and hail as large as quarters.
The local office's own words before the first event, 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 the first event at Jun 24, 2:12 PM CST, 45 minutes earlier.
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LINCOLN IL 312 PM CDT MON JUN 24 2013 .DISCUSSION... ISSUED 300 PM CDT MON JUN 24 2013 THE SHORT TERM THROUGH WEDNESDAY WILL BE DOMINATED BY PERIODIC BOUTS OF SEVERE STORMS AND FLASH FLOODING...ALONG WITH HIGH HEAT AND HUMIDITY. A COLD FRONT SHOULD PUSH ACROSS ILLINOIS LATE IN THE WEEK PROVIDING SOME RELIEF FROM THE HEAT AND HUMIDITY AND DAILY THUNDERSTORMS. MUCH MORE COMFORTABLE CONDITIONS SHOULD DEVELOP NEXT WEEKEND. BASED ON THE 3-5" OF RAIN FROM PEORIA AND NORTH...WE DECIDED TO INCLUDE OUR NORTHERN 5 COUNTIES IN A FLASH FLOOD WATCH THROUGH TONIGHT DUE TO THE HEAVY RAIN POTENTIAL AGAIN. SHORT TERM...TONIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY. INITIAL SEVERE STORM WATCH IS IN EFFECT UNTIL 7 PM FOR OUR WESTERN COUNTIES BUT ANOTHER WATCH FOR AREAS NORTHEAST OF THAT WATCH MAY BE COMING SOON. BASED ON RADAR ANALYSIS...THE SOUTHERN END OF THE LINE OF STORMS IN N MO AND E IOWA APPEARS TO BE ERODING EARLY ON. WE COULD SEE ADDITIONAL DEVELOPMENT ON THE SOUTHERN FLANK AIDED BY INCREASING MID-LEVEL FLOW AND MOISTURE CONVERGENCE. IF NOT...THE SOUTHERN COUNTIES IN THE WATCH WILL NOT BE AFFECTED AS MUCH WITH THIS ROUND OF STORMS. CORFIDI VECTORS ARE SHOWING THE LINE SHOULD MAINTAIN ITS MOTION TO THE EAST-NORTHEAST AS IT MOVES ACROSS IL...WHICH WILL MAKE IT MU-CAPE VALUES ARE CLIMBING TO NEAR 3000 J/KG AS SUNSHINE AHEAD OF THE LINE HAS HELPED BOOST SURFACE TEMPERATURES INTO THE UPPER 80S WITH SURFACE DEWPOINTS IN THE LOWER 70S. SURFACE BASED CONVECTION WILL AID IN DOWNBURST WINDS BEING ABLE TO REACH THE GROUND. SPC MESO-ANALYSIS SHOWS DOWNBURST CAPE VALUES AROUND 1100 J/KG...WHICH ALSO POINTS TOWARD EFFICIENT MOMENTUM TRANSFER TO THE SURFACE AND DAMAGING WINDS. WITH VGP ABOVE 0.2 ACROSS OUR NORTHERN COUNTIES...WE COULD SEE SOME ROTATING EMBEDDED SUPERCELLS WITH A TORNADO POSSIBLE. THE LINE OF STORMS SHOULD REACH OUR WESTERN COUNTIES AROUND 4 PM...AND PROGRESS EASTWARD TO NEAR BMI BY 6 PM AND INTO INDIANA BY 8-9 PM. STRATIFORM RAIN BEHIND THE LINE MAY LINGER FOR A FEW HOURS. SATELLITE IMAGES SHOW A WEAK SHORTWAVE IN THE WAKE OF THIS COMPLEX...SO A FEW ADDITIONAL THUNDERSTORMS MAY AFFECT OUR NW COUNTIES THROUGH MORNING. THEREFORE WE KEPT CHANCE POPS IN THE NW AFTER MIDNIGHT. ANOTHER ROUND OF SEVERE STORMS WILL BE POSSIBLE ON TUESDAY...MAINLY NORTH OF I-72/74-DANVILLE. WE ORIGINALLY HAD EXPECTED SOME UPPER LEVEL RIDGING TO PROVIDE A BREAK IN THE STORMS...AND WE STILL MAY SEE DRY CONDITIONS FOR MUCH OF THE DAY. HOWEVER...SPC HAS EXPANDED THE DAY 2 SLIGHT RISK FARTHER SOUTH TO INCLUDE A LARGE PORTION OF OUR FORECAST AREA...SO WE DECIDED TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE SEVERE POTENTIAL WITH SLIGHTLY HIGHER POPS. WE WILL HAVE A BETTER CHANCE OF BEING CAPPED TUES AS THE MID LEVELS WARM. HOWEVER...ISOLATED AREAS THAT DO BREAK THE CAP WILL HAVE A GREAT DEAL OF ML-CAPE FOR VIGOROUS UPDRAFTS. WE STILL MAINLY HAVE SLIGHT CHANCE POPS EXCEPT FOR NORTH OF I-74 WHERE WE WENT WITH CHANCE POPS. WEDNESDAY SHOULD SEE INCREASING BETTER DESTABILIZATION OF THE LOWER TROP AS THE UPPER RIDGE BEGINS TO BREAK DOWN IN RESPONSE TO A PROGRESSIVE TROUGH FROM CANADA. SURFACE HEAT AND HUMIDITY WILL REMAIN HIGH...BUT SUNSHINE MAY BE A BIT MORE LIMITED IF CONVECTION DEVELOPS EARLIER IN THE AFTERNOON. TUES AND WED WILL HAVE POTENTIAL FOR HEAT INDEX READINGS AROUND 100 IN MANY AREAS BASED ON THE AMOUNT OF SUNSHINE AND WHERE THE CIRRUS SHIELD DEVELOPS AHEAD OF CONVECTION. STILL...VERY UNCOMFORTABLE CONDITIONS. LONG TERM...THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY. THE MODELS ALL SHOW A COLD FRONTAL PASSAGE AT SOME POINT BEGINNING LATE WED NIGHT OR THURSDAY...BUT THE ARRIVAL OF COLDER AIR DELAYED UNTIL FRIDAY INTO FRIDAY NIGHT AS A SECONDARY PUSH OF CANADIAN AIR OCCURS. WE MAY SEE A FEW SHOWERS OR STORMS IN THE EAST THURSDAY AS THE COLD FRONT DEPARTS...WITH A BREAK IN THE RAIN LATER THURS AND THURS NIGHT. AS A REINFORCING SHORTWAVE IN THE 500 MB TROUGH ROUNDS THE BACK SIDE OF THE SYSTEM...IT IS PROJECTED TO BECOME CUT OFF AND LINGER ACROSS THE WESTERN GREAT LAKES THROUGH EARLY NEXT WEEK. THAT WOULD LIKELY KEEP RAIN SHOWER CHANCES ACROSS OUR AREA FOR MUCH OF THAT TIME...AS THE COLD POOL PROVIDES FAVORABLE LAPSE RATES FOR UPDRAFTS. SO A CHANGE FROM HEAT AND HUMIDITY TO CLOUDY AND COOLER APPEARS IN THE OFFING. SHIMON && .AVIATION... ISSUED 1201 PM CDT MON JUN 24 2013 DIFFICULT TO DELINEATE DETAILS IN THIS AFTERNOONS FORECAST. LOTS OF PLAYERS IN THE GAME THIS TIME AROUND. SHORTWAVE CROSSING IOWA IS CURRENTLY PRODUCING STRONG TO SEVERE CONVECTION. AS THE FORCING PUSHES EAST IT WILL INTERACT WITH RESIDUAL BOUNDARIES ACROSS ILLINOIS FROM LAST NIGHTS DOWNPOURS. ABUNDANT MOISTURE EVIDENT WITH 2+ STANDARD DEVIATION PRECIP WATER VALUES IN PLACE. HOWEVER...MODELS ARE FORECASTING SOME WARMING AT MID-LEVELS WHICH MAY LIMIT COVERAGE OF CONVECTION BY THE TIME IT REACHES CENTRAL ILLINOIS TAF SITES. FOR NOW WILL ASSUME THAT COLD POOL BEHIND INCOMING CONVECTION WILL BE SUFFICIENT TO COMPENSATE FOR ANY FORECASTED WARMING AND WILL HIT CONVECTION HARD...PARTICULARLY IN THE WESTERN TERMINALS LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING. IN SHORT-TERM...A PACKET OF GRAVITY WAVES IS PUSHING SOUTH THROUGH CENTRAL ILLINOIS AT THIS TIME ENABLING SOME LOW CLOUDS TO BRIEFLY IMPACT TERMINALS AND PRODUCING SOME WIND SHIFTS. WILL INCLUDE AS MUCH DETAIL AS POSSIBLE...BUT SOME GENERALIZATIONS WILL BE NECESSARY. BARKER && .ILX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... FLASH FLOOD WATCH THROUGH TUESDAY MORNING FOR ILZ027>031. &&
