CheeselandSkies Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 Cell coming up toward Caraway, AR looks like the next one to watch, although the latest warning is on one due west of the original tornadic cell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoosier Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 I think it's fair to say this won't be what it could have been in the IL area, but we'll see how much action we can manage to get. Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Chicago/Romeoville, IL 451 PM CDT Sat Mar 28 2020 .MESOSCALE DISCUSSION... 451 PM CDT Starting to see some gradual intensification of the convection over western IL in the western fringes of the warm conveyor belt. Recent 21z sounding from ILX shows the presence of a very shallow cool surface stable layer beneath a stout inversion just below 925 mb. Convection developing within that warm conveyor belt is likely elevated, though radar and satellite trends suggest the storms in west central IL are probably growing closer to becoming rooted in the boundary layer. Given the widespread cloud cover, its looking unlikely that we will be able to erode the cap through insolation. However, increasing ascent associated with the approaching cyclone will likely gradually cool that warm layer through ascent leading to a better environment for storms to become rooted in the boundary layer. RAP suggests this ascent should erode the cap into our far west and southwestern CWA closer to the 23-00z time frame. There is still some threat for elevated storms with an attendant severe hail threat prior to this cap eroding. Once the cap is more eroded, the very favorable deep and low level shear environment will be quite favorable for tornadic supercells, given the presence of discrete cells. It seems likely that the current storms over west central IL will race quickly into an environment characterized by a fairly strongly stable boundary layer. However, any additional discrete cells that form either along the Pacific cold front or in the warm sector out ahead of the front that move into the area once the boundary layer inhibition is lessened in a couple hours will pose a more substantial tornado threat. The window for greater significant tornado potential over our CWA looks to be where the PDS tornado watch is in effect between 23z and about 01z or perhaps 02z. Beyond 01-02z, the potential for storms to become closer to boundary layer rooted into areas east and northeast of the current tornado watch will increase. However, some slight cooling of the boundary layer by mid-late evening could begin to limit the tornado potential. Given the dynamic nature of the system, cannot rule out temps getting a bit warmer than progged this evening and leading to a better tornado threat. Something to watch, but if latest RAP and HRRR are a perfect prog (unlikely) it would suggest that the tornado threat would be fairly low into the Chicago metro area and far NW IN. - Izzi 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know the ones that have multiple deaths reported almost right after the tornado passes are going to be really bad... like Joplin. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
