NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK

AREAS AFFECTED...WEST-CENTRAL ILLINOIS
CONCERNING...SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 504...
VALID 210130Z - 210300Z
THE SEVERE WEATHER THREAT FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 504
CONTINUES.
SUMMARY...THE POTENTIAL FOR LOCALLY DAMAGING WIND GUSTS WILL
CONTINUE AND MAY DEVELOP SOUTH OF THE WATCH AREA. CONVECTIVE TRENDS
ARE BEING MONITORED FOR A POSSIBLE DOWNSTREAM WATCH.
DISCUSSION...AS OF 0115Z, A SMALL CLUSTER OF THUNDERSTORMS WAS
CENTERED OVER HANCOCK AND MCDONOUGH COUNTIES, IL, WITH A SYSTEM
MOTION OF 325/25 KT. WHILE DISTANT FROM THE RADAR, BASE VELOCITY
DATA FROM KDVN SHOW 60+ KT OUTBOUND VALUES AT ~7 KFT ABOVE THE
GROUND. LATEST OBJECTIVE FIELDS INDICATE POOR LOW-LEVEL LAPSE RATES
AND INCREASING CONVECTIVE INHIBITION, WHICH ARE LIKELY LIMITING THE
POTENTIAL FOR THE STRONGER WINDS ALOFT FROM REACHING THE GROUND.
THESE FACTORS ARE EXPECTED TO LIMIT THE POTENTIAL FOR A MORE ROBUST
DAMAGING WIND THREAT; HOWEVER, ISOLATED WIND GUSTS OF 60-65 MPH WILL
REMAIN POSSIBLE FOR THE NEXT SEVERAL HOURS.
