Areas affected...portions of far southern Wisconsin into northern
and central Illinois

Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible=20

Valid 022327Z - 030130Z

Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent

SUMMARY...A QLCS is moving eastward across eastern IA and is
approaching the MS River. Though buoyancy and shear decreases
rapidly with eastern extent, the approaching QLCS may persist with a
risk of isolated 50-60 mph wind gusts. Convective trends will be
monitored for the need of a WW issuance.

DISCUSSION...The ongoing QLCS, including a pronounced line-end
mesovortex accompanied by a rear-inflow jet, continues to track
eastward across eastern IA with a history of 60-80 mph wind gusts
and reported tornadoes. The QLCS mesovortex is preceded by strong
low-level shear, characterized by 300+ m2/s2 effective SRH (per 23Z mesoanalysis and the latest DVN VAD profiler data). As such, the
QLCS may remain organized as it crosses the MS river in a few hours.
However, buoyancy decreases/MLCINH increases substantially with
eastward extent, which could weaken the MCS substantially by the
time it enters IL. As such, continued severe potential east of the
current bounds of WWs 497-498 is a bit uncertain. As such,
convective trends will continue to be monitored for continued severe
gust potential and subsequent need for a WW issuance as the QLCS
begins to exit the ongoing watches.
