ILN:

13 2022 .SYNOPSIS... Strong to severe thunderstorms are possible this afternoon and evening. Hot and humid conditions build in for the middle of the week with near record temperatures possible. Rain chances increase toward the end of the work week with a cool front. && .NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/... Some patchy shallow fog has developed over the area early this morning thanks to mostly clear skies, calm winds, and abundant low level moisture. Any fog will quickly mix out after sunrise. For today, the forecast is characterized by anomalously low predictability. MCSs may traverse the Ohio Valley as a warm front lifts into northern Ohio/southern Michigan and upper level ridging builds. However, despite this synotpic setup being generally favorable for MCS development, lack of consistent or clustered mesoscale guidance highlights the challenges in forecasting the potential MCS occurrence and track. The one area of fairly high predictability is the overall storm environment this afternoon. With the warm front north of the area, hot and humid conditions quickly develop after sunrise leading to a highly unstable atmosphere by noon (MLCAPE over 3000 J/kg). High amounts of DCAPE are also forecast which justifies strong downburst potential. Favorable thermodynamics overlap with 30 knot bulk northwesterly shear this afternoon/evening indicating potential storm organization. However, there has been no clear mesoscale guidance supporting high probabilities of storms occurring or ensemble clusters showing clear MCS paths. As of the early morning forecast, two periods are highlighted for the highest MCS potential. The first period is toward the later part of the afternoon and early evening across the entire area but especially eastern Indiana, and western/southwestern Ohio. Some guidance depicts MCS formation in Indiana quickly overspreading into Ohio and parts of northern Kentucky during the late afternoon. If this occurs, strong damaging winds would be the main threat along with some hail and tornado potential. This MCS would be of particular concern since the atmosphere would not have had time to stabilize yet. Locally heavy rainfall would also be a threat. The second timeframe for elevated MCS potential is the evening/overnight along and north of I-70. Storms may form along the warm front in southern Michigan late this afternoon before growing upscale and diving southeast into northern Ohio toward the higher instability airmass overnight. Strong winds would also be the main threat with this MCS along with some hail. Hopefully any nocturnal MCS wind threat would be moderated by a near surface stable layer. Can`t leave out the possibility for locally heavy rain. Please note this forecast will likely change and evolve today since the outlook is characterized by low predictability. Check back for updates through the day. If an MCS does form this afternoon, there is some high end potential for wind damage given the forecast environment.

Should've known threat would shift  considerably south. Should put us on the northern fringe of things again..

I think you’re still in for something in the overnight. This southern shift is a first wave kind of thing from what I’ve seen but will see how stuff shakes out today. Models are so terrible at picking up these events until they start occurring.

Day 1 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0724 AM CDT Mon Jun 13 2022 Valid 131300Z - 141200Z ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING FROM SOUTHERN WISCONSIN INTO PARTS OF SOUTHERN LOWER MICHIGAN...NORTHERN ILLINOIS...NORTHERN INDIANA...AND WESTERN OHIO.... ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS OVER PARTS OF THE NORTHERN PLAINS... ...SUMMARY... Scattered severe thunderstorms should develop Monday across parts of the northern Plains, and from portions of the Midwest into the Great Lakes and Ohio Valley. Large hail, damaging winds, and a few tornadoes all appear possible. Some of the winds could be significantly severe (75+ mph) across parts of the Midwest/Ohio Valley Monday afternoon/evening. ...Upper MS into Great Lakes region... A broad upper ridge remains over the southern US today, with the primary band of westerlies extending from the Dakotas eastward into the Great Lakes region. Early morning model guidance suggests a shortwave trough and associated 40-50 knot midlevel speed max is currently over IA. Scattered thunderstorms have been occurring in vicinity of this feature, along with a couple of MCVs noted in radar imagery. Ahead of this shortwave trough, a warm front is lifting northward across IA/IL/IN/OH. Dewpoints in the 70s and strong heating to the south of the front will yield high CAPE values of 3000-4000 J/kg later today. Present indications are that either remnants of the ongoing convection over IA/MN or new storms will intensify by early afternoon over southern WI/northern IL and rapidly become severe. These storms will track along the retreating baroclinic zone across Lake MI and into portions of Lower MI, and northern IN/OH during the afternoon. It appears possible that a long-lived bowing MCS could result in a swath of considerable wind damage along this corridor. However, recent CAM solutions continue to vary on the details of the track. Have added an ENH area to address this threat. The ENH may need to be extended farther east in later outlooks as clarity in the evolution of the MCS becomes greater. Along with the damaging wind risk, the strongest cells may produce large hail and a few tornadoes. ...Dakotas... A surface low is forecast to deepen over eastern WY this afternoon while a cold front moves across the northern Rockies and high Plains. Thunderstorms are expected to form along the front by early evening over western SD/ND and track northeastward. Vertical shear profiles will be favorable for supercell storms capable of all hazards over portions of ND. Farther south, models suggest that storms that form will be behind the cold front, with hail being the main concern. ..Hart/Broyles.. 06/13/2022
