.DISCUSSION...
Fair vent rates today will worsen tomorrow with widespread cloud
cover and rain as the remnants of hurricane Beryl lift northeast
into the region. Widespread half inch or greater rainfall amounts
are forecast southeast of I-55 with this system, while a narrow
band of heavier totals surpassing 3 inches is expected somewhere
southeast of a Litchfield to Danville line. Behind this system,
vent rates will improve a bit as northerly transport winds
increase to 20 kt or higher southeast of I-55 Wednesday afternoon,
although mixing heights will be slow to recover.
