Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Chicago/Romeoville, IL
838 PM CDT Fri Mar 31 2023

.MESOSCALE DISCUSSION… Issued at 837 PM CDT Fri Mar 31 2023

The severe weather threat continues east of I-55 through around 10 PM. While the original quasi-linear convective system (QLCS) has weakened a smidge, the straight-line winds have regularly produced severe level gusts and continued scattered damage into the Chicago metro. Severe winds of 70+ mph remain favored. Also, the mesovortexgenesis threat continues for at least short-lived tornadoes, and seeing an area in far southern Cook County/eastern Will County that seems to be intersecting a boundary and/or interacting with some reflectivity tags that has had at least some circulation behavior. At the least, enhanced winds near 80 mph will be possible with this as it continues into Lake County Indiana and likely Porter County too.

To the southeast, the persistent rotating storm in Benton County has had a tornado at times in Illinois based on reports and especially radar-confirmed debris signatures. This has almost been a combination of a supercell and a bookend-like convective cluster. There are some favorable ingredients for a significant tornado there before it exits Benton and far southern Jasper County through 915 PM, highlighted at the least by STP values of 4+. In particular, the communities of Remington and Otterbein need to watch this closely. Farther north toward the Kankakee River Valley, it`s a bit more muddy of a mode, but has been occasional supercell structures and could see some isolated damaging winds.

.SHORT TERM… Issued at 322 PM CDT Fri Mar 31 2023

Through Saturday night…

For details on thunderstorm trends through the remainder of this afternoon and evening, see the latest mesoscale forecast discussion above.

990 mb surface low over central IA at mid-afternoon is expected to continue to deepen slightly as it moves east-northeast across south central WI and central LM to northern lower MI through Saturday morning. In the process, a sharp cold front will push quickly across the forecast area this evening. as will an initial strong mid-level vort. Strong subsidence and drying is expected behind these features during the late evening and early overnight hours, with a quick end to thunderstorms and showers. The main concern during this period, is for strong west-southwest winds behind the front, with a combination of strong surface pressure rises and a deepening boundary layer within a low-level cold advection regime characterized by steep low level lapse rates supporting wind gusts in the 40-45 kt (wind advisory) range. While areas along/south of the I-80 corridor would appear to have the better potential for prolonged advisory criteria winds overnight into Saturday morning, latest guidance soundings suggest at least some potential to tap into 40+ kt gusts for a time overnight as well. Based on this have expanded our wind advisory north to the IL/WI state line (though with a later 10 pm start time behind the cold front). All wind headlines will continue through 1 pm Saturday, with northwest winds gradually diminishing through the afternoon and evening.

A secondary stout mid-level vort is progged to wrap eastward across the forecast area early Saturday, coincident with a secondary surface trough and renewed advection of low-level moisture from the northwest. Along with the steep low-level lapse rates, this would support rain/snow showers. Surface temps are forecast to settle into the mid-upper 30s during this time, which may support brief all-snow showers (especially near the IL/WI border) and some spotty minor accums. Warm ground temps and air temps trending back up toward 40 degree should melt anything which might accumulate by afternoon. Surface high pressure then builds east into the area Saturday evening, with diminishing winds and clearing skies.
