Areas affected...southeastern Wisconsin and northern Illinois

Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely=20

Valid 162231Z - 170030Z

Probability of Watch Issuance...5 percent

SUMMARY...Gusty winds locally -- with potential for a gust or two
near severe levels -- can be expected over the next couple of hours
across a portion of far southeastern Wisconsin and into northern
Illinois. WW issuance is not expected, due to anticipated
marginal/isolated nature of the risk.

DISCUSSION...Latest radar loop shows that a semi-organized band of
storms has developed over northwestern Illinois, ahead of a subtle, eastward-moving mid-level vort max embedded within the cyclonic flow surrounding the western Lake Superior upper low. A narrow axis of
1500 J/kg mixed-layer CAPE is indicated just ahead of the band of
storms, which suggests continuation -- and possible/slight
strengthening over the next 1 to 2 hours.=20=20

The latest VWP from the KLOT (Chicago, IL) WSR-88D shows flow weakly
veering from west-southwesterly to west-northwesterly with height,
and increasing to around 35 kt at mid levels. This should allow
storms to progress into the Chicago -- and possibly Milwaukee --
vicinity, accompanied by gusty winds. While a couple of gusts could
near or reach severe levels, risk should remain sparse and marginal,
and thus insufficient to warrant WW consideration.
