Dry Time…Sun-filled days can be expected after morning fog burns off across outlying areas both today and Thursday.  Temperatures will be a touch above normal.

Friday Night Storms Ahead Of Big Cool Down…A cold front will pass the state early Saturday.  Ahead of this front, a line of strong to severe storms will be possible Friday night.  We’ll fine tune timing as we progress through the next day or two.  A blast of much cooler, drier air will then pour into the state over the weekend.  It’ll feel very much like fall around these parts…

Next Rain Maker…We’ll enjoy another dry and seasonably cool couple days before our next potentially significant rain maker gears up for the middle of next week.  Both the GFS and European forecast models are hinting this could be a significant rain maker, but caution this is still early and fine tuning will be required.

7-Day Precipitation Forecast:

  • 7-Day Rainfall Forecast: 0.50″ – 1.00″
  • 7-Day Snowfall Forecast: 0.00″

Still Focused On This Evening For Severe Storm Potential.

A look at some of the latest data hot off the press suggests we remain under fire for the potential of scattered strong to severe thunderstorms late afternoon into the evening hours.  Initial activity could fire as early as 3-4 o’clock across western sections.  The latest HRRR forecast radar (valid at 4pm) shows an advancing line of strong, and possibly severe, storms pushing east.

Again, the primary threat is damaging wind, but a couple hail reports will also be possible.

As of the 12 o’clock hour, a complex of thunderstorms sits to our west across western/ central portions of Illinois.  We’ll keep a close eye on this complex as it continues pushing east and likely intensifies in a hot, humid, and unstable air mass over the next few hours.  Please plan a way to keep abreast of the latest radar and local media this afternoon and evening as storms move in.
