AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHICAGO/ROMEOVILLE IL
508 PM CDT TUE JUN 24 2014
.DISCUSSION...
234 PM CDT
MAIN FORECAST CONCERNS THIS AFTERNOON INCLUDE TRYING TO HONE IN ON
CONTINUED PERIODIC PRECIP CHANCES THROUGH THE UPCOMING WEEK...AS
WELL AS TEMPERATURE TRENDS AND A WARMUP THIS WEEKEND.
REST OF TODAY THROUGH TOMORROW...
THIS AFTERNOON...SURFACE LOW LIES OVER THE CENTRAL GREAT LAKES WITH
A FRONTAL BOUNDARY EXTENDING SOUTHWEST INTO SOUTHEASTERN COUNTIES OF
THE CWA THEN TO DOWNSTATE ILLINOIS. SHOWERS AND A FEW THUNDERSTORMS
HAVE DEVELOPED ALONG A CONVERGENT BAND THAT LIES FROM FAR NORTHWEST
INDIANA INTO EAST CENTRAL ILLINOIS. DEWPOINTS POOLING INTO THE LOW
70S ALONG THE BOUNDARY AND PWATS OF JUST OVER AN INCH AND A HALF ARE
RESULTING IN EFFICIENT RAIN PRODUCERS WITH THESE SLOW MOVING STORMS.
FARTHER NORTHWEST...DRIER AIR WITH DEWPOINTS IN THE UPPER 50S TO
LOWER 60S WILL TRICKLE INTO THE AREA THROUGH THE DAY TODAY BEHIND
THE FRONT. UPPER TROUGH AXIS IS ALSO SLOWLY SLIDING EAST ACROSS THE
AREA TODAY WITH NOTABLE DRYING ON WATER VAPOR IMAGERY SPREAD OVER
THE WESTERN HALF OF THE CWA. IN ADDITION...A LAKE BREEZE HAS ALREADY
PUSHED INLAND THIS AFTERNOON WITH FOG MOVING IN BEHIND OFF OF LAKE
MICHIGAN BEHIND THE BOUNDARY. THIS WILL LIKELY CONTINUE THROUGH THE
OVERNIGHT HOURS WITH PERIODS OF DENSE FOG IMMEDIATELY NEAR THE LAKE
SHORE WITH VISIBILITY GRADUALLY IMPROVING AS THE LAYER LIFTS TO A
LOW STRATUS DECK FARTHER INLAND.
ANOTHER WAVE IS NOTED ACROSS THE DAKOTAS DIGGING SOUTHEAST TOWARDS
THE AREA. THIS WAVE WILL TRANSLATE ACROSS SOUTHERN/CENTRAL WISCONSIN
WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON WITH WEAK HEIGHT FALLS OVERSPREADING THE CWA.
NORTHEAST WINDS OFF THE LAKE TOMORROW WILL KEEP CONDITIONS MUCH
COOLER...ONLY IN THE UPPER 60S TO LOW 70S NEAR THE LAKE FRONT WHILE
AREAS INLAND PUSH INTO THE LOW TO MID 80S WHERE 800 J/KG OR SO OF
WEAKLY CAPPED INSTABILITY IS PROGGED TO DEVELOP. BEST CHANCES FOR
THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE TIED TO WHERE THIS UPPER LEVEL FEATURE
INTERSECTS THE BETTER INSTABILITY WITH SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS
POSSIBLE MAINLY FROM THE LATE MORNING THROUGH EARLY/MID EVENING.
CHANCES WILL BE LOWER NEAR THE LAKE WITH THE COOLER AND MORE
STABLE CONDITIONS.
THURSDAY THROUGH FRIDAY...
UPPER LEVEL RIDGE WILL BUILD ACROSS THE REGION BY THE END OF THE
WEEK WHILE H85 BAROCLINIC ZONE LIFTS BACK TO THE NORTH BRINGING
CONTINUED CHANCES FOR THUNDERSTORMS AND KICKING OFF A WARMING TREND
THAT WILL CONTINUE INTO THE WEEKEND. BROAD PERSISTENT WARM ADVECTION
WILL FIGHT AGAINST MODEST MID/UPPER LEVEL HEIGHT RISES WHILE MODEST
TO MODERATE INSTABILITY IS PROGGED TO DEVELOP EACH DAY. ATMOSPHERE
WILL BE PRIMED FOR THUNDERSTORMS BUT WITH LITTLE SIGNAL FOR ANY
SIGNIFICANT FORCING COVERAGE WILL LIKELY BE SCATTERED AT BEST AND
PROBABLY BE DIURNALLY FAVORED. SURFACE HIGH OVER THE GREAT LAKES
THURSDAY WILL KEEP ONSHORE WINDS THROUGH THE DAY WITH TEMPERATURES
MUCH COOLER BY THE LAKE //UPPER 60S TO LOW 70S COMPARED TO UPPER 70S
TO NEAR 80 INLAND// AS WELL AS REDUCED POPS IN THE COUNTIES NEAR THE
LAKE WHERE THE AIRMASS WILL BE MORE STABLE. BY FRIDAY...THE SURFACE
HIGH SHIFTS EAST WITH WINDS RETURNING TO THE SOUTHEAST. A LAKE
BREEZE IS POSSIBLE MAINLY ALONG THE ILLINOIS SHORES.
SATURDAY THROUGH SUNDAY...
THERMAL RIDGE PROGGED TO SPREAD EAST ACROSS THE MIDWEST WITH H85
TEMPS PUSHING TO NEAR 20C AND H92 TEMPS OF 22-23C STARTING AS
EARLY AS SATURDAY WHICH SHOULD SUPPORT LOW TO POSSIBLY MID 90S
ACROSS THE AREA. JET STREAM/SHORTWAVE ENERGY IS PROGGED TO STAY TO
OUR NORTH ACROSS THE FAR UPPER MIDWEST AND NORTHERN GREAT LAKES
REGION WHICH WOULD FAVOR THE LOCAL AREA STAYING CAPPED. UNDERCUT
POPS SOME AND BOOSTED TEMPS SLIGHTLY EACH DAY...ESPECIALLY IN THE
SOUTH WHERE THERE IS GREATEST CONFIDENCE IN STAYING CAPPED. THE
PATTERN DOES APPEAR FAVORABLE FOR NOCTURNAL MCSS TO ROLL ALONG
BAROCLINIC ZONE...AND OUTFLOW COULD PUSH THE FRONT BACK INTO THE
AREA RESULTING IN SOME DECREASED CONFIDENCE IN THE DETAILS...
ESPECIALLY FARTHER NORTH IN THE CWA.
MONDAY THROUGH TUESDAY...
GFS AND ECMWF BOTH ADVERTISE A COLD FRONT SWEEPING ACROSS THE AREA
LATE MONDAY INTO TUESDAY NEXT WEEK. THUNDERSTORM CHANCES WILL LIKELY
HINGE ON FROPA TIMING. TEMPERATURES APPEAR TO REMAIN WARM BEHIND THE
FRONT...SO WHILE TEMPS MAY MODERATE SOME EXPECT ABOVE NORMAL
CONDITIONS TO CONTINUE.

.AVIATION...
//ORD AND MDW CONCERNS...UPDATED 22Z...
* SHRA WITH POSSIBLE OUTFLOW/NORTHWEST WINDS LATE THIS AFTERNOON.
* IFR/LIFR CIGS/VIS OVERNIGHT/WEDNESDAY MORNING. CMS
//DISCUSSION...UPDATED 22Z...
SHOWERS CONTINUE TO DEVELOP ALONG THE LAKE BREEZE BOUNDARY JUST
NORTHWEST OF ORD WITH AN OUTFLOW BOUNDARY PUSHING SOUTH AHEAD OF
THE LAKE BREEZE. SO FAR ALL THIS OUTFLOW HAS DOWN IS STALL THE
LAKE BREEZE...NO SIGNIFICANT PUSH OF NORTHWESTERLY WINDS BEYOND
THE CURRENT LAKE BREEZE LOCATION. SMALL POTENTIAL FOR THE OUTFLOW
TO CAUSE NORTHWEST WINDS AT ORD AND INCLUDED IN THE TEMPO FOR
SHOWERS BUT CONFIDENCE IS LOW. SHOWERS WILL LIKELY FESTER ALONG
THESE BOUNDARIES...AS THEY DRIFT SOUTHEAST...THROUGH SUNSET. CMS
PREVIOUS 18Z DISCUSSION...
WEAK LOW PRESSURE AND FRONTAL SYSTEM CONTINUE TO PROGRESS THROUGH
NORTHEAST ILLINOIS AND NORTHWEST INDIANA EARLY THIS
AFTERNOON...WITH CONDITIONS VARYING ON EITHER SIDE AT THIS TIME.
OUT AHEAD OF IT AND PRIMARILY FOR GYY...MVFR CIGS AND MORE
WIDESPREAD SHRA PERSIST AND BEHIND IT VFR CONDITIONS WITH ISOL
SHRA ARE IN PLACE. AS THIS SYSTEM PUSHES THROUGH THIS
AFTERNOON...EXPECT VFR CONDITIONS FOR ALL THE TERMINALS AND WITH
THE ISOL SHRA TO CONTINUE. LAKE BREEZE OBSERVED ON LATEST RADAR
IMAGERY AND HAVE IT TIMED TO ORD AND MDW BY 19Z...WITH THE CURRENT
WESTERLY WINDS TURNING TO THE EAST NORTHEAST. ALTHOUGH AN INITIAL
BURST OF HIGHER SPEEDS MAY OCCUR WITH LAKE BREEZE PASSAGE...FEEL
THAT THE 9KT REFLECTED IN THE TAFS SHOULD BE THE HIGHEST SPEEDS
OBSERVED. PERSISTENT NORTHEAST WINDS TONIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY
MORNING WILL ALLOW FOG AND LOW CIGS TO PUSH INLAND TONIGHT AND
AFFECT THE TERMINALS THROUGH WEDNESDAY MORNING. THESE CONDITIONS
WILL BEGIN SPILLING INLAND AS SOON AS EARLY THIS EVENING...BUT
SHOULD NOT BECOME A PREVAILING CONDITION FOR ORD/MDW/GYY UNTIL
LATER TONIGHT. HAVE GONE PESSIMISTIC IN THE TAFS AND AM CONFIDENT
WITH THIS OCCURRENCE...BUT COULD EASILY SEE EVEN LOWER CIGS AND
VIS OCCUR DURING THIS PERIOD. A SLOW UPWARD TREND IN CONDITIONS
WILL OCCUR BY MID TO LATE MORNING WEDNESDAY.
RODRIGUEZ
//ORD AND MDW CONFIDENCE...UPDATED 22Z...

.MARINE...
214 PM CDT
DENSE FOG WILL PERSIST OVER THE LAKE AND EXTENDED THE DENSE FOG
ADVISORY THROUGH WEDNESDAY MORNING. HAVE HIGH CONFIDENCE IN FOG
PERSISTING THROUGH AT LEAST THURSDAY MORNING OVER THE SOUTHERN HALF
OF THE LAKE AND NEARSHORE WATERS SO EXTENDED THE DENSE FOG ADVISORY.
THERE IS A CHANCE THE FOG COULD LAST EVEN LONGER INTO FRIDAY
MORNING...BUT DO NOT HAVE ENOUGH CONFIDENCE TO GO THAT FAR WITH AN
ADVISORY RIGHT NOW. DENSE FOG MAY PERSIST THROUGH THURSDAY MORNING
OVER THE NORTHERN HALF OF THE LAKE...BUT ONLY HAVE MEDIUM CONFIDENCE
SO DID NOT EXTEND THE DENSE FOG ADVISORY PAST WEDNESDAY MORNING.
A LOW PRESSURE TROUGH IS OVER THE WESTERN GREAT LAKES WITH A WEAK
FRONT DRAPED DOWN THE LAKE THROUGH EASTERN IL. THE FRONT AND TROUGH
WILL PUSH EAST THIS EVENING AND WINDS WILL BECOME NORTH AROUND 10 KT
BEHIND THE FRONT. HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS SOUTH OVER THE GREAT LAKES
WEDNESDAY NIGHT AND A FRONT WILL PROCEED THE HIGH WEDNESDAY INTO
WEDNESDAY NIGHT. WINDS REMAIN NORTH BUT INCREASE TO 10-15 KT. THE
HIGH SHIFTS EAST LATE THIS WEEK AND WINDS BECOME EAST 5 TO 10 KT
THURSDAY NIGHT. SOUTHEAST WINDS INCREASE TO 10-20 KT FRIDAY NIGHT AS
THE GRADIENT TIGHTENS OVERHEAD. WINDS BECOME SOUTH SATURDAY NIGHT
AND STAY SOUTH 10-20 KT THROUGH MONDAY. THEY THEN BECOME SOUTHWEST
MONDAY NIGHT INTO TUESDAY.
