August 10, 2020: Derecho Brings Widespread Severe Wind Damage Along with Several Tornadoes

Fast Facts:

Summary:  A well-organized and long-lived complex of storms produced widespread severe wind damage across Iowa, northern Illinois, and northern Indiana during the day on Monday, August 10. Much of this severe wind was significant (75+ mph winds) resulting in many downed trees, several toppled-over semi trucks, and many communities receiving at least some minor structural damage. Within the broader area of severe winds, 15 tornadoes were confirmed across northern Illinois and northwest Indiana. ​Several tornadic circulations developed within the main line of thunderstorms, and these accounted for 13 tornadoes across northern Illinois and northwest Indiana. In addition, a lone supercell that was subsequently absorbed into the main line produced two tornadoes in and around the Rockford area, bringing the total number of tornadoes for this event to 15. As it stands at this time, since 1950, this is tied for the 2nd highest number of tornadoes to occur on a single calendar day in NWS Chicago`s area of responsibility, and the most to occur on a single calendar day in the month of August. Preliminary August 10th numbers: Over 700 reports of severe wind speeds (58+ mph) or wind damage from the Nebraska/Iowa border, across Iowa, northern Illinois, and northern Indiana. This was a high end, once-a-decade type event for the area. Over 150 of the wind reports are from all of northern Illinois and northwest Indiana. 6 injuries were reported in the NWS Chicago CWA, 5 being in Forreston, IL and 1 in Peru, IL. In the NWS Chicago County Warning Area, 15 tornadoes were confirmed, which includes portions of northern Illinois and northwest Indiana. As of this time, this count ties August 10, 2020 with June 22, 2016 as the single calendar day with the 2nd most tornadoes within our county warning area (behind the 6/30/2014 "Double Derecho" event). In total, the derecho produced 20 confirmed tornadoes across Illinois, Wisconsin, and Indiana. The tornadoes include an EF-1 tornado in Rogers Park, Illinois (a north-side neighborhood of Chicago), that moved out over Lake Michigan and became a waterspout. This was the first tornado in the city of Chicago since September 3, 2018 (EF-0). This was the first F-1/EF-1+ tornado in the city of Chicago since May 29, 1983 (F-1) just east of Cicero Avenue near Hawthorne Race Course. The last time a stronger tornado occurred in the city was an F-2 on March 12, 1976 that clipped the far northwest side of the city, roughly near O'Hare Airport and Edison Park. Derecho Facts:  This complex of storms was known as a derecho. A derecho produces a swath of particularly damaging thunderstorm winds (specifically, wind gusts of at least 58 mph along most of its length with several well-separated 75 mph or greater gusts) over an area at least 250 miles long. These are primarily classified as straight-line winds rather than tornadic. Even so, wind speeds in a derecho can exceed 100 mph which is equivalent to that of an EF-1 tornado but over a vastly larger area than a tornado would impact. Tornadoes can also be embedded within derechos and produce concentrated areas of even more intense damage. Derechos develop in an environment with very warm and moist air at the surface, colder air aloft, and moderate to strong winds at upper levels of the atmosphere. Northern Illinois and northern Indiana have long been known as a corridor of enhanced derecho activity, as shown in this graphic from a published paper by Guastini & Bosart (2016) titled "Analysis of a Progressive Derecho Climatology and Associated Formation Environments". Q&A on Derechoes Understanding a Damaging Wind Thunderstorm Complex Derecho climatology from 1996-2013 by Guastini and Bosart (2016).   Preparedness:  Despite the massive coverage and impressive intensity of the wind damage, there were a very limited number of serious injuries in the local area. This speaks to the effort of our partners including fellow meteorologists in the weather enterprise effectively communicating the threats and action needed to be taken, as well as emergency management and law enforcement for their preparedness efforts beforehand and assistance efforts immediately after. Of course it also means that many public citizens heeded the threat and the warnings, as well as communicated them to their family and friends (being a "Force of Nature!"). For more on severe weather preparedness, see here.  The Forecast:  Forecast confidence increased markedly Monday morning that severe weather was likely across northern Illinois and northwest Indiana that afternoon. At NWS Chicago, our messaging accordingly increased, and we issued a Situation Report (briefing) for our partners at 9:15 a.m. and held a conference call with them near 12 p.m. The office also issued eight Severe Thunderstorm Warnings and six Tornado Warnings. Here is some of the forecast information from the NWS Storm Prediction Center (SPC) and NWS Chicago: SPC Day 1 Severe Thunderstorm Outlook issued at 7:16 a.m., Aug. 10. NWS Chicago Weather Story graphic issued at 9:00 a.m., Aug. 10. SPC Day 1 Severe Thunderstorm Outlook issued at 10:57 a.m., Aug. 10. NWS Chicago Weather Story graphic issued at 11:15 a.m., Aug. 10. More on the severe weather outlook categories can be found here. Severe Thunderstorm Watch (issued at 11:25 a.m., Aug 10 through 7 p.m. This was a rarely issued Particularly Dangerous Situation Severe Thunderstorm Watch due to the likelihood of widespread significant wind damage.

Tornadoes are listed in chronological order:

Tornado #7 - Yorkville to South Plainfield EF-1 KENDALL/WILL COUNTY

Zoomed-in Maps

Downloadable KMZ file Downloadable shapefile Summary:  The tornado started on the far south side of Yorkville near Walsh Drive where a pergola was destroyed, siding was ripped off a house, and parts of a fence and a tree were thrown over a roadway. Eyewitnesses accounts indicate the debris was lifted and twirled, consistent with a tornado. The tornado then progressed east-southeastward producing damage to trees along State Route 126 toward Schlapp Road. The most significant damage was found east of Schlapp Road along Wheeler road where trees were mangled, a farm building was destroyed with debris deposited in a nearby field, and a large grain bin was bent inward. Wood panels were thrown into the ground leaving scour marks in the grass. Six power poles were snapped along Ridge Road, and a 1000-1500 lb auger was moved about 50 feet. This is where the tornado likely reached peak intensity with winds near 105 mph. The tornado continued southeast into neighborhoods south of Renwick Road producing mainly tree damage, and ended just before I-55. A swath of damaging winds consistent with speeds of 70 to 80 mph continued into Crest Hill based on prolific tree damage.

The Enhanced Fujita (EF) Scale classifies tornadoes into the following categories:

EF0 Weak 65-85 mph	EF1 Moderate 86-110 mph	EF2 Significant 111-135 mph	EF3 Severe 136-165 mph	EF4 Extreme 166-200 mph	EF5 Catastrophic 200+ mph

Environment

Aug 10, 9 a.m. 500 mb (~18,000 ft) level, showing a strong short wave and associated 50-70 kt speed maximum moving eastward across the Upper Midwest. This would be a drive force for continued upper support through the thunderstorm complex's lifecycle.

Aug 10, 9 a.m. surface weather map highlighting the very moist air mass ahead of the maturing thunderstorm complex at that time. Note the warm front also slowly moving north. This boundary supported continued low-level warm and moist advection (fuel to the storms), as well as a source for low-level veering profiles near it increasing tornadogenesis potential especially in the toward the IL/WI state line by mid afternoon.

NWS Quad Cities weather balloon launch at 12 p.m. on August 10 that sampled a high amount of instability thanks to exceptionally steep mid-level lapse rates and very high equilibrium levels, ample moisture, and undirectional mid-level flow of sufficient amount for long-lived, organized, forward-propagating storms.

Aug 10, 11 a.m. deep layer wind shear, with values of 40+ kt sufficient for storm organization, and given the unidirectional mid-level wind profile, this also would help support the development of a forward-propagating storm complex.	Aug 10, 11 a.m. surface-based CAPE (instability), with widespread values over 2,500 J/kg indicating a strongly unstable air mass ahead of the incoming thunderstorm complex.	Aug 10, 11 a.m. precipitable water, with an ample moisture reservoir present for the replenishing of moisture into the thunderstorm complex.

Aug 10, 11 a.m. mid-level lapse rates with 8C/km or higher through that layer reflecting the potential for rapidly accelerating updrafts. Combined with sufficient low-level moisture and heating, this indicates explosive convection processes.	Aug 10, 11 a.m. low-level wind shear with values of 20-25 kt (that likely increased further as the complex strengthened) indicating cold pool organization from rain-cooled air. A cold pool allows for stronger storm forward motion and wind momentum given the other ingredients. Also these values are sufficient enough for tornado potential if defined storm inflow areas that can harness low-level turning were to develop.	Aug 10, 11 a.m. MCS maintenance parameter, which provides probabilistic information combining shear profile data, mid-level lapse rates, instability, and mid and upper level wind flow. High probabilities of 90+ percent for ~200 miles ahead of the maturing storm complex are not surprising given the high values of these input parameters.

These are basically cross-sections of the derecho's wind profile, namely its rear-inflow jet (RIJ), as the system moved from west-to-east over the area. The RIJ is most mature as the system moves over the Quad Cities, with impressive 100+ mph winds immediately off the surface (some realized at the surface). Notice the unidirectional northwest flow of the low-level jet, ideal for momentum transfer of the strongest winds to the surface that was realized with frequent severe wind gusts persisting a half hour in places! Also interesting to note is the wind profile immediately ahead of the front edge of the derecho's front edge (i.e. the wind shift). For the NWS Chicago profile data, there is more low-level shear (~0-1.5 km) in that immediate pre-storm environment which may explain the tendency for more mesovortices and in turn corridors of enhanced wind damage and tornadoes in our area vs. further west.
