Area forecast discussion, Feb 2, 11:29 PM CST, 31 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHICAGO/ROMEOVILLE IL 1129 PM CST SUN FEB 2 2014 .DISCUSSION... 250 PM CST MAIN FORECAST CONCERN REVOLVES AROUND POTENTIAL FOR ACCUMULATING SNOW DURING THE TUESDAY AFTERNOON-WEDNESDAY PERIOD. SEASONABLY QUIET/COOL LATE WINTER WEATHER PRIOR TO THE MID-WEEK SYSTEM...AND AGAIN THURSDAY-FRIDAY WITH SPRAWLING HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE REGION. LONG RANGE MODELS CONTINUE TO INDICATE POTENTIAL FOR ANOTHER SNOW PRODUCING SYSTEM INTO NEXT WEEKEND...BUT CONTINUE TO SHOW LARGE SPREAD WITH DEPTH/LOCATION AND TRACK OF ANY RESULTING SYSTEM IN THAT TIME FRAME. TONIGHT-MONDAY NIGHT... SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE RIDGE OVER THE WESTERN MIDWEST THIS AFTERNOON WILL SLOWLY DRIFT EAST AND WEAKEN ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA THROUGH MONDAY. DENSE CIRRUS SHIELD CURRENTLY ACROSS THE REGION IS EXPECTED TO MOVE OFF TO THE EAST THIS EVENING AS UPPER LEVEL JET STREAK PROPAGATES ACROSS NEW ENGLAND. COMBINATION OF SNOW COVER...CLEARING SKIES AND LIGHT WINDS WITHIN SURFACE HIGH/RIDGE WILL ALLOW FOR SOME SUB-ZERO OVERNIGHT LOWS ACROSS NORTHERN IL TONIGHT AND AROUND ZERO OR LOW SINGLE DIGITS ABOVE ZERO IN CHICAGO/SOUTHEAST CWA BASED ON LOCAL 925-850 MB TEMP CLIMATOLOGY AND HAVE CONTINUED TO UNDERCUT MOS MINS FOR TONIGHT. SFC RIDGE OVER AREA MONDAY WILL LIMIT DEPTH OF BOUNDARY LAYER MIXING...THOUGH CONSIDERABLE SUNSHINE THROUGH THE MORNING AND EARLY AFTERNOON HOURS SHOULD ALLOW TEMPS CLOSE TO GUIDANCE NUMBERS DESPITE COOL START AND SNOW COVER. MONDAY NIGHT MINS ARE A LITTLE TRICKY...WITH MAINLY CLEAR/LIGHT WIND CONDITIONS EARLY IN THE EVENING EVENTUALLY TRANSITIONING TO INCREASING MID/HIGH CLOUDS AND EAST/NORTHEAST WINDS OVERNIGHT. TEMPS WILL LIKELY DROP QUICKLY OVER SNOW COVER MONDAY EVENING...AND MAY RISE/BECOME STEADY OR VARY UP/DOWN A BIT THROUGH THE NIGHT. EXPECTING MINS TO REMAIN ABOVE ZERO...THOUGH POSITIVE SINGLE DIGITS TO AROUND 10 DEG EXPECTED FOR LOWS ALONG THE LINES OF THE COOLER MAV GUIDANCE. TUESDAY-WEDNESDAY NIGHT... CLOSED UPPER LOW ALONG THE CALIFORNIA COAST THIS (SUNDAY) AFTERNOON IS PROGGED TO CURVE ACROSS THE DESERT SOUTHWEST THROUGH MONDAY/MONDAY NIGHT...WITH A STRONG MID-LEVEL SHORT WAVE PROPAGATING THROUGH THE BASE OF THE TROUGH AND BECOMING SOMEWHAT NEGATIVELY TILTED WHILE EJECTING NORTHEASTWARD ACROSS THE SOUTHERN PLAINS ON TUESDAY. MODEL AGREEMENT IS REASONABLE WITH THIS FEATURE AT THIS DISTANCE...THOUGH AS WPC NOTES THE WRF-NAM/SREF SOLUTIONS APPEAR TO BE TOO DEEP WITH THE UPPER TROUGH AND REMAINS A QUICKER OUTLIER ALOFT. COMPARING THE VARIOUS OTHER GLOBAL GUIDANCE...HAVE GENERALLY USED A BLEND OF GFS/ECMWF/UKMET/GEM FOR SFC LOW TRACK/TIMING AND QPF WITH THIS SYSTEM. CONSENSUS OF THESE SOLUTIONS INITIALLY DEVELOPS AN ELONGATED SURFACE LOW ACROSS THE LOWER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY TUESDAY AFTERNOON IN RESPONSE TO THE VIGOROUS MID/UPPER LEVEL WAVE...WHICH THEN DEEPENS AS IT TRACKS NORTHEAST THROUGH THE MID/UPPER OHIO VALLEY TOWARD SOUTHWEST PENNSYLVANIA BY WEDNESDAY MORNING. FAIRLY UNIFORM GUIDANCE SUPPORT FOR A WEST-EAST BAND OF SNOW WILL DEVELOP TUESDAY AFTERNOON FROM WEST-CENTRAL IL EASTWARD ACROSS MAINLY THE SOUTHERN HALF OF OUR CWA...WITH INCREASING LARGE SCALE ASCENT AND HEIGHT FALLS DEVELOPING AHEAD OF THE APPROACHING SHORT WAVE...AS WELL AS INCREASING MID-LEVEL FRONTOGENESIS AND A FAVORABLE LOCATION FOR STRONG UPPER DIVERGENCE BENEATH THE RIGHT-ENTRANCE REGION OF THE UPPER JET MAX (ACTUALLY SOME INDICATION OF A BRIEF COUPLED JET STRUCTURE BETWEEN LEFT EXIT OF APPROACHING JET STREAK AND RIGHT ENTRANCE OF STRENGTHENING OVER PRE-EXISTING JET MAXIMA OVER THE GREAT LAKES REGION). STRONG MID/UPPER LEVEL MOIST ADVECTION DEVELOPS AHEAD OF THE ADVANCING UPPER TROUGH WITH PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES PUSHING 0.50 INCHES INT CENTRAL IL BY 00Z WEDNESDAY...WITH SOME INDICATION OF MESOSCALE BANDING PRODUCING 0.25 QPF AMOUNTS IN THAT NARROW AFOREMENTIONED CORRIDOR. BEST JET DYNAMICS AND VORTICITY ADVECTION SLOWLY MOVE TO THE EAST TUESDAY NIGHT...THOUGH AREA REMAINS WITHIN DEFORMATION PRECIPITATION SHIELD WHICH EVENTUALLY PULLS OFF TO THE EAST-NORTHEAST OF THE FORECAST AREA DURING WEDNESDAY MORNING ALLOWING SNOW TO TAPER OFF. BLENDED QPF AS NOTED COMBINED WITH 12:1 TO 14:1 SNOW/LIQUID RATIOS THROUGH THE EVENT YIELDS A DETERMINISTIC SNOWFALL FORECAST RANGING FROM 3-3.5" AROUND ROCKFORD...TO A STRIPE OF 6-7 INCHES ACROSS THE SOUTHERN TWO TIERS OF COUNTIES OR SO. THIS MATCHES UP NICELY WITH THE WPC WINTER WEATHER WEATHER DESK AMOUNTS...THOUGH ULTIMATELY MAY VERY WELL SEE A TIGHTER GRADIENT ALONG THE NORTHERN EDGE OF THE SNOW. WITH NORTH-NORTHEAST WINDS OFF THE LAKE WE COULD SEE SOME MINOR LAKE-ENHANCEMENT INTO NORTHEAST IL...THOUGH NOT A PARTICULARLY FAVORABLE SET-UP AS IN ADDITION TO H8 TEMPS ONLY AROUND -10/-12C THE LAKE DOES HAVE CONSIDERABLE ICE COVER OVER THE WESTERN SHORE AREAS AND CLIMATOLOGICAL COLD WATER TEMPS. WINDS DO LOOK TO GUST ABOVE 20 KT AT TIMES TUESDAY NIGHT-WEDNESDAY MORNING WITH SOME BLOWING/DRIFTING SNOW LIKELY. SNOWFALL THEN TAPERS OFF AND ENDS BY LATE WEDNESDAY MORNING...WITH POTENTIAL FOR SOME WEAK LINGERING LAKE EFFECT SNOW SHOWERS INTO NORTHWEST INDIANA AND THE IL/IN STATE LINE AREA INTO THE AFTERNOON BUT WITH ONLY MINOR ADDITIONAL ACCUMULATION EXPECTED DURING THAT TIME. CONTEMPLATED WATCH ISSUANCE FOR SOUTHERN COUNTIES...THOUGH WITH START OF EVENT STILL LATE 4TH/5TH PERIODS AND IN AGREEMENT WITH SURROUNDING WFOS TO THE SOUTH/EAST HAVE DECIDED NOT TO HOIST HEADLINE AT THIS TIME. WEDNESDAY NIGHT-FRIDAY... STRONG/COLD HIGH PRESSURE THEN BUILDS SOUTHEAST ACROSS THE PLAINS AND MIDWEST WEDNESDAY NIGHT...WITH THE CENTER OF THE HIGH EVENTUALLY PROGGED TO SPREAD EAST ACROSS THE MIDWEST THROUGH FRIDAY. SEASONABLY COLD WEATHER ANTICIPATED IN THIS REGIME...WITH OVERNIGHT SUB-ZERO MINS AND DAYTIME HIGHS SINGLE DIGITS/LOW TEENS ABOVE ZERO WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY. LONGER RANGE SOLUTIONS AGREE IN DEPICTING A QUICK-MOVING SHEARED SHORT WAVE ALONG THE ELEVATED BAROCLINIC ZONE ACROSS THE LOWER MISSOURI/LOWER OHIO VALLEYS ON FRIDAY...LIKELY SPREADING SOME MID/HIGH CLOUD COVER INTO THE WFO LOT CWA AND POTENTIALLY PRODUCING SOME LIGHT SNOW SOUTH OF THE CWA. FRIDAY NIGHT-SUNDAY... MODEL SOLUTIONS DIVERGE SIGNIFICANTLY IN SYNOPTIC DETAILS INTO NEXT WEEKEND...WITH GROSS AGREEMENT MAINLY ON AN UPPER TROUGH ACROSS THE WESTERN CONUS MOVING SLOWLY EAST ACROSS THE CENTRAL CONUS THROUGH THE WEEKEND. WHILE THE POTENTIAL WILL EXIST FOR A COUPLE OF POTENTIAL SNOW-PRODUCING PRECIP EVENTS ACROSS THE EASTERN 2/3 OF THE CONTIGUOUS 48 STATES...CURRENT ENVELOPE OF GUIDANCE SOLUTIONS VARY WILDLY WITH VERY LOW CONFIDENCE IN ANY PARTICULAR SOLUTION AT THIS DISTANCE. HAVE MAINTAINED LOW CHANCE POPS FOR SNOW FRIDAY NIGHT INTO SUNDAY FROM PREVIOUS FORECAST WITH NO IMPLIED IMPLICATION OF ANY DETAIL BEYOND THAT GIVEN HIGH-UNCERTAINTY AND LITTLE MODEL CONSENSUS. RATZER && .AVIATION... //ORD AND MDW CONCERNS...UPDATED 06Z... * NONE. BMD //DISCUSSION...UPDATED 06Z... HIGH PRESSURE IS CENTERED OVER NORTHERN MISSOURI AND IOWA LATE THIS EVENING AND WILL VERY SLOWLY DRIFT EASTWARD OVER THE NEXT 24 HOURS. THIS WILL RESULT IN VERY LIGHT EVEN CALM WINDS MUCH OF THE FORECAST PERIOD FOR THE TERMINALS. SOME CIRRUS IS STREAMING OVERHEAD THIS EVENING BUT SHOULD SHIFT EAST LATE TONIGHT WITH SKIES BECOMING CLEAR. THE ONLY MINOR CONCERN WILL BE FOG DEVELOPMENT MAINLY OUTSIDE THE METRO...WITH A FEW AREA SITES ALREADY SHOWING SLIGHT REDUCTIONS TO VISIBILITY. GUIDANCE DOES NOT INDICATE ANY WIDESPREAD FOG DEVELOPMENT OVERNIGHT THOUGH AS THE AIRMASS MAY BE TOO DRY. BMD //ORD AND MDW CONFIDENCE...UPDATED 06Z... * HIGH CONFIDENCE IN ALL FORECAST ELEMENTS.
