(9:00PM – Monday, October 28th, 2024) As a storm system moves through the region, along with it will come the likelihood of periods of gusty/high winds across the state over a multi-day period.
Timing…
•Monday Night – Thursday Morning, October 28-31st.
Location…
•All of Illinois.
Impacts…
•Wall-to-wall gusty/high winds are not expected. Instead, periods of gusty/high winds will be likely across the state over this multi-day period.
•Wind gusts of 30-50MPH will be likely across the state with the expected periods of gusty/high winds.
Discussion…
•As a storm system moves through the region, an associated low-level jet will focus across the region, intensifying at times. As this occurs, adequate atmospheric mixing is likely at times, which will transport the higher winds aloft down to the surface. Thus, waves/periods of gusty/high winds can be expected across the state over this multi-day period.
