252 PM CDT SUN MAY 19 2013

WHILE DRY WEATHER PREVAILED OVER MOST OF CENTRAL AND SOUTHEAST
ILLINOIS TODAY...A FEW SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS DID POP UP AT
TIMES. THESE WERE MOST WIDESPREAD ALONG THE ILLINOIS RIVER WEST OF
JACKSONVILLE AROUND MIDDAY...BUT THEY WEAKENED AS THE MOVED
NORTHEAST. TEMPERATURES BY MID AFTERNOON WERE IN THE MID TO UPPER
80S...WITH HEAT INDEX VALUES IN THE LOWER 90S FROM AREAS FROM
JACKSONVILLE SOUTHEAST TO EFFINGHAM AND LAWRENCEVILLE.

AN ACTIVE WEATHER PATTERN WILL BE IN PLACE OVER THE MIDWEST THE
NEXT COUPLE DAYS. A SLOW MOVING STORM SYSTEM IN THE PLAINS WILL BE
THE SOURCE FOR PERIODS OF STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS THROUGH
TUESDAY. MUCH OF THE REGION WILL BE VERY WARM AND HUMID DURING
THIS PERIOD...WITH A COOLING TREND FROM WISCONSIN TO WESTERN
MISSOURI ON TUESDAY...AS THE STORM SYSTEM PUSHES FURTHER EASTWARD.

SLIGHTLY COOLER CONDITIONS FROM WISCONSIN TO NORTHWEST MISSOURI.
