.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 323 PM CDT Mon Apr 7 2025

Through Tuesday Night:

Isolated to scattered snow showers and blustery, unseasonably
chilly conditions will persist into this evening, followed by a
clearing and rather cold overnight into Tuesday. A few more 700
mb shortwaves will interact with lingering steepened low-level
lapse rates due to the strong cold air advection. With the
activity toward and just beyond sunset, it appears a bit greater
coverage should focus over northeast Illinois, just inland of
the lake, with little/no snow showers in much of northwest
Indiana. Accumulations and road impacts remain unlikely with the
snow showers, though any heavier snow showers will continue to
knock visibility down to 1-2 miles at times.

As 1025 mb high pressure builds overhead overnight, clearing
skies and much lighter winds will result in a rather cold start
to Tuesday morning, with low-mid 20s common (mid 20s in Chicago)
and a few upper teens readings probable in typical colder/sheltered
spots of interior northern Illinois. Highs on Tuesday will be
about 10 degrees below normal with highs in the 40s, but likely
only upper 30s along the immediate lakeshore. The strong April
sun and lighter winds will (thankfully) make for a less
unpleasant afternoon than today. While the surface high is just
off to the east Tuesday evening, the very dry air mass in place
and only slowly increasing high clouds will result in quickly
falling temperatures (upper 20s to lower-mid 30s), that will
then slowly rise overnight.

Castro/Carlaw

Wednesday through Monday:

A fast westerly upper jet streak will emerge across Kansas and
Nebraska by Wednesday morning. Surface cyclogenesis is expected
to take place across southern Nebraska, and an associated
uptick in southwesterly 925-850 mb flow will yield a steady
increase in warm advection across much of our region. The
initial batch of warm advection-driven precipitation is expected
to blossom across our area into Wednesday morning (primarily
after daybreak) as a result.

While there`s still some remaining uncertainty regarding how
the low-level thermal profiles will look as precipitation
initially breaks out, wet bulb temperatures may remain just cold
enough to support a period of wet snow into Wednesday morning
(or wet snow mixing with rain), focused mainly across northeast
Illinois and parts of northwest Indiana. If the p-type can be
all snow for an hour or two after onset with heavy enough rates,
can`t rule out patchy slushy coatings on elevated/colder
surfaces, though temperatures above freezing should otherwise
generally limit impacts.

Thereafter (by late Wednesday morning), intensifying warm
advection should transition any lingering wet snow or mix over
to a cold rain through the day on Wednesday and into Wednesday
evening. In earlier model cycles, there was a plausible
scenario for precip to start to transition back to wet snow
Wednesday night into Thursday morning as the primary surface low
pulls away to our east. Most of the model guidance, however,
has backed off on this potential, though can`t completely rule
it out yet.

Rain shower chances will continue through Thursday as a series
of additional vort maxes pivot nearby, but activity should shift
and/or focus southward Thursday afternoon, and then come to an
end by Thursday evening. Broad troughing will linger overhead
through the end of the week, although the introduction of drier
air largely looks to suppress precipitation chances late in the
week and into the weekend. Temperatures will remain below normal
on Friday, coolest lakeside, then return to seasonable inland
(upper 50s-low 60s) on Saturday. There`s a signal for above
normal temperatures Sunday-Monday with highs reaching into the
70s, and this warmth possibly making it all the way to the
lakeshore for a change.

.AVIATION /06Z TAFS THROUGH 12Z WEDNESDAY/...
Issued at 1207 AM CDT Tue Apr 8 2025

A surface high pressure system will slowly move southward
through the terminal airspace through the duration of the TAF
period. Generally light and variable winds are hence expected,
with a preference for northwesterly to westerly direction by
late morning. A lake breeze will cause winds to shift east
northeasterly at ORD/MDW/GYY this afternoon and DPA after
sunset, before winds gradually turn southerly toward the end of
the TAF period. A few VFR stratocumulus clouds will continue
near the lakeshore before being replaced by mid-level clouds
this evening.
