Mesoscale Discussion for McHenry Co., IL

<pre>ACUS11 KWNS 221748
SWOMCD

Mesoscale Discussion 0967
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
1248 PM CDT Mon Jun 22 2020

Areas affected...much of Illinois and surrounding areas

Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible

Valid 221748Z - 222015Z

Probability of Watch Issuance...60 percent

SUMMARY...Storms will increase in number through the afternoon, with
localized damaging wind gusts or marginally severe hail.

DISCUSSION...Surface analysis shows a low over eastern IA, ahead of
the midlevel trough. Heating continues over much of the region, with
the strongest instability south of a diffuse temperature gradient
from northern into central IL and eastern MO.

Winds aloft are not particularly strong, but ample instability,
increasing lift and no convective inhibition should lead to
scattered and possibly numerous storms throughout the rest of the
afternoon. Precipitable water in excess of 1.50" along with
steepening lapse rates should support localized severe downbursts,
along with marginally severe hail in the strongest cores. Storms
will be focused along the diffuse front over IL, and may increase
along the cold front developing later today out of IA and MO.
