THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR NORTH CENTRAL ILLINOIS...
NORTHEAST ILLINOIS AND NORTHWEST INDIANA.
.DAY ONE...THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT.
WEATHER HAZARDS EXPECTED:
THUNDERSTORMS WHICH MAY PRODUCE:
DAMAGING WIND GUSTS IN EXCESS OF 60 MPH.
TORRENTIAL DOWNPOURS AND ISOLATED FLASH FLOODING.
HAIL.
AREAS AFFECTED AND TIMING:
A LINE OF THUNDERSTORMS IS SLOWLY WEAKENING AS IT MOVES
THROUGH NORTHERN ILLINOIS AND NORTHWEST INDIANA THIS MORNING.
MAY SEE ADDITIONAL THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT THIS AFTERNOON
THROUGH TONIGHT WITH THE BEST CHANCES ALONG THE ILLINOIS
WISCONSIN STATE LINE.
DISCUSSION:
ANOTHER DIFFICULT FORECAST PERIOD TODAY. A LINE OF THUNDERSTORMS
IS SLOWLY WEAKENING AS IT MOVES THROUGH NORTHERN ILLINOIS AND
NORTHWEST INDIANA THIS MORNING. THICK CLOUD COVER FROM THE
THUNDERSTORM COMPLEX HAS ALSO SPREAD ACROSS THE REGION. LASTLY
A STATIONARY FRONT IS OVER WISCONSIN. THE CLOUD COVER COULD LIMIT
HOW UNSTABLE WE GET THIS AFTERNOON WHICH WOULD IN TURN LIMIT
THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT. HOWEVER CLOUDS ARE THINNING UPSTREAM
SO WITH A FRONTAL BOUNDARY IN THE REGION WILL CONTINUE TO HAVE
A CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS THIS AFTERNOON WITH THE BEST CHANCE
ALONG THE ILLINOIS WISCONSIN BORDER CLOSEST TO THE FRONT. THE
BIGGEST THREAT FROM THE STORMS WILL BE GUSTY
WINDS...SMALL HAIL...AND TORRENTIAL DOWNPOURS. THESE DOWNPOURS
COULD LEAD TO FLASH FLOODING. IN GENERAL....CONFIDENCE IS LOW IN
THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT FOR THE REST OF TODAY.
.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY.
THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE TO BE POSSIBLE AT TIMES THURSDAY
THROUGH TUESDAY.
.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...
SPOTTERS MAY BE NEEDED THROUGH TONIGHT.
