CONCERNING...TORNADO WATCH 298...
VALID 122106Z - 122200Z
THE SEVERE WEATHER THREAT FOR TORNADO WATCH 298 CONTINUES.
SUMMARY...THE THREAT FOR TORNADOES...DAMAGING WINDS AND LARGE HAIL
CONTINUES ACROSS WW...WHICH WAS RECENTLY EXTENDED EWD BY WFO
CHICAGO.
DISCUSSION...A FRONTAL BOUNDARY EXTENDS FROM NERN IA ACROSS NWRN
IL...AND INTERSECTS A LAKE BREEZE BOUNDARY NEAR CHICAGO. A SURFACE
LOW WAS LOCATED ALONG THIS FRONT OVER CENTRAL/NERN IA...AND THIS LOW
WILL MOVE EWD ACROSS THE WATCH AREA INTO NRN IL BY EARLY EVENING.
SUPERCELL SVR TSTMS OVER NRN IL WILL CONTINUE TO POSE A TORNADO
THREAT...ALONG WITH LARGE HAIL/DAMAGING WINDS GIVEN STRONG DEEP
LAYER SHEAR AND 0-3 KM SRH OF AROUND 200 M2/S2. STORMS INTERACTING
WITH WWD-MOVING LAKE BREEZE MAY BRIEFLY ENCOUNTER HIGHER LOW-LEVEL
SRH OVER NRN IL BEFORE UPSCALE GROWTH OCCURS. SVR TSTMS OVER SWRN WI
ARE IN A REGION OF BACKED LOW-LEVEL FLOW AND WILL ALSO POSE A
TORNADO THREAT OVER THE NEXT FEW HOURS.
TSTMS OVER WRN PORTIONS OF THE WW AREA HAVE BEEN SLOW TO
DEVELOP...HOWEVER A FUNNEL CLOUD WAS REPORTED IN FRANKLIN COUNTY AT
2029Z. ADDITIONAL DEVELOPMENT IS EXPECTED AS LARGE-SCALE FORCING
CONTINUES TO OVERSPREAD THE AREA.
