AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NORTHERN INDIANA
205 PM EDT FRI AUG 24 2007

.AVIATION...
THE RADAR IS CURRENTLY FAIRLY QUIET...BUT STORMS WITH DAMAGING
WINDS AND HEAVY RAINFALL POSSIBLE ARE STILL EXPECTED...ROUGHLY
LATE AFTERNOON/EARLY EVENING. THINGS WILL BE VFR UNTIL ANY STORMS
MOVE THROUGH THE AIRPORTS. TIMING IS A LITTLE HARD TO PIN DOWN
WHEN ANY STRONG STORMS WILL MOVE THROUGH SBN AND FWA...SO LEFT THE
TEMPO TIMING THAT WAS IN THE TAFS. THINGS WILL BE WATCHED AND WHEN
ANY STORMS DO DEVELOP TO THE WEST...TAFS CAN THEN BE UPDATED WITH
BETTER...MORE PRECISE TIMING. SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM CHANCES ARE
NOT REALLY GOING TO END UNTIL THAT FRONT MOVES ON TO THE EAST
TOMORROW...SO HAVE CONTINUED STORM CHANCES THROUGH TONIGHT...ALONG
WITH MVFR CONDITIONS. RAIN CHANCES COULD THEN BE ENDING LATER
TOMORROW MORNING AS THE WIND TURNS TO THE WEST/NORTHWEST.

&&

.UPDATE... /ISSUED 1019 AM EDT FRI AUG 24 2007/
MAINLY UPDATED TO KEEP THE WORDING FRESH. THE THUNDERSTORM
ACTIVITY HAS MOVED OUT OF THE COUNTY WARNING AREA FOR THE TIME
BEING AND NOT TOO MUCH SHOWER/THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY GOING ON AT
THE MOMENT ON RADARS TO THE WEST. WITH THE FRONT STILL IN THE
AREA...SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY IS STILL EXPECTED TO
INCREASE LATER THIS AFTERNOON/EARLY EVENING TIME FRAME. STORMS
WILL BE CAPABLE OF HEAVY RAINFALL AND DAMAGING WINDS. THOSE ARE
THE TWO PRIMARY CONCERNS WITH THE STORMS.

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 503 AM EDT FRI AUG 24 2007
SHORT TERM...TODAY AND TONIGHT.
FLASH FLOOD/FLOODING AND AFTN SEVERE TSRA. UPSTREAM CONFLUENT SFC-
7H FLOW IN EXTREME MOISTURE/PWAT BAND OF 2-2.25 INCHES CONTINUES
TO FEED TSRA DEVELOPMENT THIS AM. STRONGEST FOCUS ON NOSE OF
55-60KT LLJ INTO NERN KS/NWRN MO WITH CLOUD TOPS TO M80C. THIS
FEATURE IS MAIN CONCERN AS IT EJECTS NEWD TODAY IN RESPONSE TO
STRONG ENERGY DIGGING INTO MT/WY ATTM. NOTED SHIFT TO DIFFLUENT
SFC-7H FLOW ACRS WRN CWA PER KIWX/WLCI3 KINEMATIC PROFILES. WILL
HAVE EARLY AM PERIOD FOR TSRA...TRANSITION TO CHC FOR MUCH OF
DAYLIGHT HOURS. RAMP POPS UP AGAIN BY MID AFTERNOON WEST WITH
APPROACH OF STRONG MID TROPOSPHERIC BAND WITH NEAR 60KT SPEED MAX
CONTRIBUTING TO 50-60 KNOTS DEEP LAYER SHEAR. BL TO DESTABILIZE
ALONG SOUTHEASTERN PERIPHERY OF ANVIL PER INCREASINGLY BACKED
UPSTREAM ANVIL STEERING FLOW. ANTICIPATE MLCAPES 2500-3500 J/KG
ACRS CWA BY LATE AFTERNOON WITH CONVECTIVE TEMPERATURE REACHED AND
INCREASINGLY FAVORABLE LL CONVERGENT/UL DIVERGENT SIGNALS IN RIGHT
REAR OF 120 KT UL JET SIGNALS. STRONG FLOW/SHEAR AND SUFFICIENT
INSTABILITY FOR STORMS TO DEVELOP/GROW UPSCALE INTO SEVERE
SEGMENTS/SUPERCELLS.

OF PARTICULAR CONCERN IS NAM 00 UTC AND 06 UTC CONSISTENCY IN
DEVELOPING PREFRONTAL TROF IN INSTABILITY/RICHER THETA-E AIR FROM
SERN MI TO CENTRAL INDIANA LATE THIS AFTERNOON. MEANWHILE SFC
FRONTAL WAVE MOVES NORTHEAST INTO NERN IL AND UNDERGOES STRONG
CYCLOGENESIS WITH FAVORABLE LAYER ASCENT WITH 12HR 7H HGHT FALLS
ON ORDER OF 40-50M...FORMING A TRIPLE POINT WITH INCREASED 0-1KM
HELICAL PROFILE ACRS NWRN HALF OF CWA THAT MAY ALLOW ANY STORMS...
ESPECIALLY IN 03-06 UTC TIME FRAME TO FAVOR SUPERCELL/POSSIBLE
TORNADIC STORMS WELL AFTER DARK. OF COURSE HYDRO ISSUES TO BE OF
EQUALLY PROBLEMATIC IMPORTANCE WITH EACH SUBSEQUENT ROUND OF TSRA
REALIZES AN INCREASED PERCENTAGE TO RUNOFF. UPDATE TO FLOOD WATCH
TO HEIGHTEN MENTION OF MAJOR TO NEAR RECORD FLOODING/DOUBLE CREST
OF MAJOR STEM RIVERS...ESPECIALLY IN NORTHWEST OHIO.

LONG TERM...SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY.
LAST IN SERIES OF FNTL WAVES ALG LEADING EDGE OF STG NRN STREAM
TROUGH ACRS SRN CANADA WILL MOVE THROUGH THE AREA LT TONIGHT AND
ALLOW STG CDFNT TO PUSH SOUTH INTO THE TN VALLEY OVR THE WEEKEND.
SFC RIDGING WILL BUILD STRONGLY SWD OUT OF CANADA AND BRING ABT A
MUCH NEEDED DRY SPELL UNTIL THE MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK.

WILL RETAIN HOLD OVR POPS SAT MORNING BUT CUT BACK AFTN CHCS BASED
ON MORE AGREEABLE MED RANGE CONSENSUS ACCELERATING SFC BNDRY EWD.
THIS ALSO AFFORDS A COOLER LOOK TO TEMPS SAT-SUN AS SFC RIDGE
SETTLES INTO THE GREAT LAKES.

BEYOND THAT...SUGGESTION IS THAT WRN RIDGE WILL AGAIN TEMPORARILY
BLD EWD W/TEMPS RETURNING TO MUCH ABV NORMAL MON/TUE AND NXT CHC OF
RAIN PSBLY AS EARLY AS TUE NIGHT. HWVR WILL HOLD W/WED TIMING AT
THIS POINT. REMAINDER ON TRACK.
