Marine Thunderstorm Wind in Lake Michigan, May 31, 2016

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Chicago/Romeoville, IL
332 PM CDT TUE MAY 31 2016

.SHORT TERM...
238 PM CDT

Through Tonight...

There will be 2 elements and areas of thunderstorm concerns for
late afternoon through tonight, an area of diurnal thunderstorm
development north of a warm front extending roughly along the
Kankakee River impacting nern Indiana into the southern portions
of the Chicago Metro area and an area of showers and thunderstorms
in a zone of broad scale warm advection ahead of an upper trough
approaching the middle and upper Mississippi Valley. Pcpn has been
ongoing over the wrn portions of the CWA and is slowly spreading
to the east and has been enhanced by an embedded MCV as noted in
the latest radar imagery. Expect that the pcpn over the wrn
portions of the CWA should persist well into the evening hours,
though could diminish somewhat in coverage and intensity through
the evening. The pcpn over the ern portions of the CWA should be
more diurnal in nature, per much of the short-range, high res
guidance and taper off through the early evening hours. The
convective activity over the Chicago Metro area could be enhanced
for a short period of time by outflow boundarys moving from west
to east and another moving from south to north. With a very moist
airmass in place, with PWATS in excess of 1.2 inches, ocassional
heavy rainfall will accompany some of the stronger showers and
storms, producing rainfall amounts of 1 to 2 inches per hours.
While widespread severe thunderstorms are not likely, there is a
chance that some of the stronger storms could produce occasional
wind gusts to 45 to 50 mph and small hail.  Localized urban and
small stream flooding will be possible into the evening hours.

Temperatures have been able to reach into the middle to upper 80s
today in areas not impacted by pcpn, but have dropped off rapidly
into the middle 60s with the thunderstorms. Temperatures overnight
tonight should be in the lower to middle 60s.

Through the night, pcpn will become more focused by the longwave
upper trough approaching the middle and upper Mississippi Valley.
As of 2:30 PM CDT, the cold front extends from nwrn Wisconsin into
central Iowa. The front should move into nwrn Illinois shortly
after midnight. With the main upper low moving very little
tonight, the progression of the front into nwrn/ncntral will be
slow. After a lull in the pcpn this evening, expect increasing
pcpn chances over the nwrn portions of the CWA late tonight, and
will carry categorical PoPs over the far wrn portions of the CWA,
along the I-39 corridor by the pre-dawn hours.

.LONG TERM...
240 PM CDT

Wednesday through Tuesday...

Main forecast concerns/challenges are with additional
thunderstorm chances Wednesday and once again Saturday.

Thunderstorm chances Wednesday morning will be dictated with what
occurs overnight tonight, but still feel fairly confident that
there will be an area of showers/thunderstorms moving east through
northern Illinois into mid/late morning. Most guidance in general
agreement with the current upstream development over Iowa
associated with front and upper level trough will continue to push
east into the CWA Wednesday morning. However, LLJ will weaken and
focus further to the north through the morning, with coverage of
these storms possibly decreasing during this time. Still
maintained likely wording for all of northern Illinois but after
this initial morning development, wonder if there might be a
further diminishing trend through midday. Before this occurs,
think there will be a low probability for an isolated stronger
storm which could provide small hail or gusty winds, but with the
severe threat low at this time.

After the possible lull in overall activity into midday, diurnal
heating and increasing dewpoints into the low to mid 60s will
support moderate instability out ahead of this steadily
progressing front with increasing large scale ascent and low level
convergence along the front allowing for additional development
into the afternoon. Although thunderstorms will be possible area
wide in the afternoon, best focus will be along and southeast of a
Chicago to Mendota IL line where the greater instability will
reside. Shear will still be on the low side Wednesday, but
guidance is indicating some slight increase into Wednesday as
upper level trough/jet shift overhead. Its this southeast half of
the CWA which will also see the higher threat of stronger
development, with some isolated severe storms possible.

High temps Wednesday will be dependent on precip/coverage, but
with most locations getting into the low 80s. Expect the afternoon
development to exit by the early/mid evening with drier conditions
and above normal temps in place through the end of the work week.
Next higher chances for showers/thunderstorms arrive Saturday and
Saturday night with the arrival of the next upper level trough and
surface boundary.

.AVIATION...

2030Z Update...Rain and embedded thunderstorms over nern IL and
nwrn IN within an area of larger scale light flow have set up
multiple outflow boundaries and a lake breeze boundary. Strong
showers and thunderstorms have mixed down stronger winds aloft and
gusts of 30 to 40 kt have been observed at ORD/MDW/DPA, while some
sfc observing sites indicate light and variable winds. The sfc
wind flow will remain convectively altered for the next few hours.
Additional thunderstorm development is likely invof the Chicago
area terminals through 23-01z and will be capable of producing
ocnl wind gusts to 45 kt, heavy rainfall and small hail.

krein

For the 18Z TAFs...

The main concerns during the period will be the timing and
coverage of showers and thunderstorms through the period.

an area of rain with isold/sct embedded thunderstorms continues
over the area. RFD is the only terminal directly impacted at
issuance time, but expect the area of pcpn to slowly work to the
east. Latest timing suggests arrival of pcpn at ORD/MDW by arnd
19z. radar imagery indicates an outflow boundary tracking to the
east which should pass through DPA by arnd 18z and ORD/MDW by arnd
19z. Expect the pcpn to begin arnd the time of the passage of the
outflow boundary. Also, there will likely be a temporary wind
shift to SWLY with ocnl gusts to 25 kt following the passage of
the outflow boundary. The airmass is quite moist over the region
and there is the potential for periods of heavy rainfall with some
of the stronger storms reducing visibility to IFR levels for brief
periods. The pattern will continue to be unsettled through the
afternoon. A warm front extending from nern Illinois into wcntrl
Indiana will be the focus for additional development. Latest vis
satellite imagery shows an area of towering CU along the warm
front and shra/tsra are quickly developing over nwrn Indiana. This
activity should continue to expand through the afternoon, keeping
chances for tsra over the terminals into the early evening hours.
The activity associated with the warm front should be largely
diurnal in nature, so there could be a lull in the activity from
late evening through the early morning hours. a resurgence of tsra
chances will begin again durg the early morning hours as a
stronger cold front moves across the region. The models are in
relatively decent agreement on the general timing of the beginning
of the next round of tsra tomorrow, beginning durg the late
morning hours. There is less certainty on the ending time as the
push of the front is relatively weak. A slow frontal progression
would suggest that there could be an extended period of tsra/shra
tomorrow, with the main uncertainty being the extent of coverage.

.MARINE...
240 PM CDT

With high pressure situated over Ontario into the Central Great
Lakes region and with surface low/trough across the Plains and
Upper Midwest, flow over the lake has generally been
east/northeast today. As this high shifts east tonight and with
the surface trough/front approaching into tonight and Wednesday
morning, expect winds to transition more to a southerly direction.
Do also expect an increase in speeds during this time but with
some slight diminishing trend possible into the afternoon with the
arrival of the trough. Then as a front pushes through, winds will
turn west Wednesday night. Winds will then generally be on the
lighter side through the end of the work week.
