FORECAST FOCUS IS ON POPS/SEVERE/FLOOD POTENTIAL THIS
EVENING/TONIGHT. GENERALLY LEANED TOWARD THE NAM WHERE TIMING
DIFFERENCES OCCURRED AS GFS SEEMS TO BE A SLOW OUTLIER WITH FROPA.
FOR TEMPS THEN LEANED MORE HEAVILY ON MET GUIDANCE.

THIS AFTERNOON/EVENING...SCT CONVECTION FORMING ALONG THE BOUNDARY
WILL CONTINUE THRU THE AFTERNOON/EVENING AND COVERAGE WILL INCREASE.
PLENTY OF INSTABILITY SOUTH OF THE BOUNDARY WITH LAPS SFC CAPES OF

CU STARTING TO POP ACRS WCNTRL IL AND TEMPS ARE NEAR CONVECTIVE

OF HUF AND IND NEAR ISSUANCE TIME. WL GO WITH VCTS THERE TO START
TEMPO TRWS FM 00Z-04Z AT WHICH TIME BEST LIFT ASSOCIATED WITH
APRCHG S/W OCCURRS AND RAPID REFRESH WAS SHOWING INCRSD ACTIVITY.
OTHERWISE...WL JUST GO WITH VCTS AFT 21Z AT BMG. AT KLAF...WL JUST
GO WITH VCSH AND CBS AS ATMS THERE ONLY SLIGHTLY UNSTABLE COMPARED
TO THE 2500-3000 J/KG CAPE S OF THE FNT. ACTIVITY SHOULD WANE

...SHELF CLOUD PASSING THROUGH INDIANAPOLIS...

A SHELF CLOUD ALONG THE LEADING EDGE OF STRONG TO SEVERE
THUNDERSTORMS PUSHING INTO INDIANAPOLIS METROPOLITAN AREA WILL BE
MOVING THROUGH THE CITY OVER THE NEXT ONE TO TWO HOURS. THESE
TURBULENT...LOW HANGING CLOUDS OFTEN TIMES CAN APPEAR TO BE SIMILAR
TO FUNNEL CLOUDS. HOWEVER...THESE ARE NOT FUNNELS. THESE ARE MERELY
TURBULENT CLOUD FRAGMENTS THAT...WHILE APPEARING OMINOUS...ARE NOT
ACTUALLY ROTATING...AND DO NOT POSE A DANGER TO THOSE ON THE GROUND.
THE KEY TO IDENTIFYING A FUNNEL CLOUD IS ORGANIZED AND PERSISTENT
ROTATION ABOUT A VERTICAL AXIS. WHILE THESE TURBULENT CLOUD FRAGMENTS
MAY APPEAR TO ROTATE...THIS MAY BE A RESULT OF THE CHAOTIC MOTIONS
ALONG THIS BOUNDARY. BE SURE TO WATCH FOR ANY PERSISTENT AND
ORGANIZED ROTATION ABOUT A VERTICAL AXIS...TO IDENTIFY WHETHER OR NOT
YOU ARE VIEWING A FUNNEL CLOUD.
