.DISCUSSION...FORECAST FOCUS WILL REVOLVE AROUND TSRA CHANCES TODAY
AND FLOOD ISSUES.

A LARGE AREA OF CONVECTION HAS CONTINUED TO DEVELOP TO THE WEST/SW
OF THE IND CWA THIS MORNING THANKS TO OLD BOUNDARIES PROVIDING FOCUS
FOR DEVELOPMENT AND H85 FLOW PARALLEL TO THE SURFACE BOUNDARIES.
TRAINING OF THESE CELLS HAS BEEN OCCURRING MOST OF THE NIGHT AND
SHOWS LITTLE SIGN OF LETTING UP THIS MORNING.  SATELLITE CLOUD TOPS
CONTINUE TO COOL WHILE MORE DEVELOPMENT IS TAKING PLACE ACROSS
CENTRAL ILLINOIS AT 07Z.

TODAY...WILL RAISE POPS OVER MOST OF CENTRAL INDIANA TO COVER THE
PERSISTANT TSRA ACTIVITY.  QPF WILL BE HIGH IN SOME AREAS WITH STORM
TOTALS POSSIBLY REACHING OVER 5 INCHES.  THE HARDEST HIT AREAS ARE
NOW UNDER AN AREAL FLOOD WARNING UNTIL 915AM AND WILL KEEP THAT
GOING.  WILL CONTINUE TO EVALUATE THE NEED FOR EXPANSION THROUGH THE
EARLY MORNING HOURS.  AFTER THIS OVERNIGHT ACTIVITY BEGINS TO WANE
LATER THIS MORNING SOME BREAKS IN THE CLOUDS WILL BE POSSIBLE.  THIS
IN TURN WILL ALLOW FOR SOME DESTABILIZATION AND MORE TSRA THIS
AFTERNOON.  TEMPS WILL BE NEARLY IDENTICAL TODAY AS YESTERDAY.

TONIGHT...ACTIVITY SHOULD BE OVER BY TONIGHT AS UPPER SUPPORT SHIFTS
NORTH.  TEMPS WILL STILL BE IN THE 70S WITH WARM H85 TEMPS STILL
OVER US.

SUNDAY...QUIET WEATHER IS EXPECTED THROUGH ON SUNDAY AS THE
PERSISTENT HIGH OVER THE SE CONUS HANGS TOUGH.  LITTLE AIRMASS
MODIFICATION IS EXPECTED SO TEMPS WILL REMAIN IN THE UPPER 80S/LOW
90S FOR HIGHS AND AROUND 70 FOR LOWS.

MONDAY AND TUESDAY...NEXT SYSTEM WILL BEGIN TO AFFECT CENTRAL
INDIANA ON MONDAY.  IT LOOKS VERY SIMILAR TO THE CURRENT SYSTEM WITH
A SFC LOW TO THE WEST THAT WILL BE SHOVED N/NE INTO THE GREAT LAKES
SINCE EASTWARD MOVEMENT WILL BE THWARTED BY THE SE CONUS RIDGE EARLY
ON.  BY MONDAY NIGHT BOTH THE NAM/GFS SHOW THE FRONT MAKING MORE
PROGRESS INTO CENTRAL INDIANA BRINGING COOLER TEMPS TO THE REGION.
THE COOL DOWN WILL ONLY BE AROUND 4C AT H85 AND THAT WILL GIVE
ROUGHLY LOW TO MID 80S AT THE SFC FOR TUESDAY.

WEDNESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY...THE GFS/ECMWF SHOW H5 RIDGING SHIFTING
FROM THE SE CONUS TO THE SW CONUS.  FLOW OVER INDIANA GOES MORE
ZONAL WHICH WILL GIVE US A PERIOD OF QUIET WEATHER.  TEMPS WILL
STILL BE ABOVE NORMAL IN THE MID 80S.  BY FRIDAY ANOTHER COLD FRONT
WILL BE MOVING INTO THE STATE BRINGING ANOTHER ROUND OF TSRA.
