AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE INDIANAPOLIS IN
620 PM EDT FRI JUN 19 2009

.AVIATION...DISCUSSION FOR 0Z.
MAIN ISSUE IS TIMING OF TSRA AT THE SITES. FIRST ROUND SHUD AFFECT
KLAF BETWEEN 0 AND 1Z BASED ON TIMING OF STORMS IN IL. FURTHER
DEVELOPMENT IN IL IS POINTING TOWARDS MORE SIGNIFICANT COVERAGE
ESPECIALLY ACRS THE NORTHERN SITES. TIME HTS ARE SHOWING BEST LIFT
OVR KIND AT 6Z IN BOTH GFS AND NAM BUT NEITHER MODEL APPEARS TO HAVE
A GOOD HANDLE ON CURRENT SITUATION. CCFP SHOWS LIKELY THUNDER ACRS
KIND AND KLAF AND PERHAPS KHUF BY 3Z. THIS MATCHES BEST WITH
UPSTREAM CONDS...ALTHOUGH HAVE SOME CONCERNS BASED ON CURRENT
MOVEMENT THAT STORMS COULD EVEN STAY NORTH OF KIND AND KHUF. WL
ATTEMPT TO NAIL DOWN GREATEST THREAT FOR EACH SITE FOR A FEW
HOURS...ALTHOUGH EACH COULD GO A BIT LONGER.

STILL LOTS OF MOISTURE AROUND SO EXPECT A DROP TO MVFR VSBYS AFTER
STORMS MOVE OUT...AROUND 7-9Z OR SO. THIS WL MIX OUT AFTER SUNRISE.

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION...

MAIN CHALLENGE TO THE FCST WL BE TIMING/CVRG OF TRWS TNGT/EARLY
SATURDAY ALONG WITH SEVERE POTENTIAL.

COMPLEX WEATHER PATTERN THIS TIME AROUND. FIRST OF ALL...THERE WAS A
BROAD AREA OF UPR LVL HIGH PRES ACRS THE GULF STATES WITH A DEEP
MOISTURE BELT ON ITS NRN PERIPHERY EXTENDING FM TX ACRS THE
PLAINS...UPR MIDWEST...OH VLY AND APLCHNS. UPSTREAM...AN UPR TROF
WAS MAKING GOOD EWD PROGRESS ACRS THE THE NRN PLAINS. AT THE SFC...A
WARM FNT EXTENDED SE ACRS THE SRN GT LKS AND UPR OH VLY...WHILE A CD
FNT STRETCHED SE FM LOW PRES ACRS NRN MN THROUGH CNTRL IA AND NCNTRL
KS. RADAR WAS SHOWING STORMS WERE ONGOING INVOF THE AFOREMENTIONED
WARM FNT AND ALSO ALONG A CONVECTIVE OUTFLOW BOUNDARY ACRS ECNTRL IL
THAT HAS PROMPTED A TORNADO WATCH FOR OUR NRN COUNTIES.
FINALLY...ANOTHER OUTFLOW BOUNDARY EXTENDED FM AROUND CINCINNATI NW
TO THE ECNTRL IL BOUNDARY. THE ATMS WAS EXTREMELY UNSTABLE WITH LAPS
SBCAPES IN EXCESS OF 3000 J/KG. HOWEVER...WIDESPREAD STORMS WERE
HAVING A HARD TIME DEVELOPING ALONG THE CNTRL IN BOUNDARY DUE TO A
STG 700 MB CAP (12 DEGREES CELSIUS)IN PLACE.

MODELS WERE FAR APART FM EACH OTHER AND WHAT WAS ACTUALLY GOING ON
REGARDING QPF EXCEPT FOR THE NEW KID IN TOWN...THE HIGH RESOLUTION
RAPID REFRESH WHICH WAS DOING A VERY NICE JOB IN INITIALIZING ITS
REFLECTIVITY FIELDS. SHORT TERM REFLECTIVITY PROGS WERE VERIFYING
WELL ALSO. SO REGARDING SHORT TERM...WL RELY PARTIALLY ITS FCST.
OTHERWISE...MODELS MOVE THE PLAINS S/W ACRS THE GT LKS LATE TNGT.
WIND FIELDS ALOFT WL INCRS IN ASSOCIATION WITH THE S/W WHICH WL LEAD
TO AN INCRSG SHEAR PROFILE THIS EVE AND OVERNGT. ALSO...THE CD FNT
IS EXPECTED TO MOV INTO THE NWRN HALF OF CNTRL INDIANA BY 12Z SUN.
SO...WITH INCRSG DEEP LIFT WITH S/W AND CD FNT APRCHG AND EXTREME
INSTABILITY...TRWS WL BECOME WIDESPREAD THIS EVE AND TNGT ESP ACRS
NRN PARTS OF THE FA IN CLOSER PROXIMITY TO DEEPER MOISTURE. RAPID
REFRESH WAS BRINGING WIDESPREAD STORMS TO CNTRL IN AROUND 00Z THIS
EVE WHICH LOOKS REASONABLE. PRIOR TO THAT...WE COULD SEE ADDITIONAL
STORMS FIRE NEAR THE OUTFLOW BOUNDARY WHICH THE RAPID REFRESH IS
HINTING AT OR SEE SOME OF THE IL STORMS DROP SE ALONG THE INSTABLITY
GRADIENT ACRS OUR NRN FA...BUT WITH CAP EXPECT ACTIVITY TO BE MORE
SCATTERED OR ISOLD. AT ANY RATE...WL GO WITH LIKELY POPS ACRS THE
ENTIRE FA TNGT AND CHC POPS SATURDAY MRNG SE WITH SLGT CHC POPS NW
BEHIND THE FNT.

+40 KT 1000-500MB SHEAR AND EXTREME INSTABILITY WOULD SUPPORT BOW
ECHOES AND SUPERCELLS...ALTHOUGH LCLS AND LFCS GREATER THAN 3K FT
WOULD SUGGEST SMALL TORNADO CHANCE...BUT WL HAVE TO KEEP AN EYE ON
ANY STORM THAT INTERACTS WITH A BOUNDARY. FRZG LVLS NEAR 16K FT
WOULD ALSO SUGGEST LG HAIL WL PROBABLY NOT BE THAT WIDESPREAD. AT
ANY RATE...MODERATE RISK ESPECIALLY FOR DAMAGING WINDS LOOKS ON
TRACK. ALTHOUGH...THERE WL CERTAINLY BE SOME HEAVY RAIN WITH PRECIP
H20 VALUES AT AROUND 2.25 INCHES... BUT SPEED OF SYS SHOULD PRECLUDE
FLOOD WATCH INSTEAD WL JUST MENTION HEAVY RAIN. WL HAVE TO KEEP AN
EYE ON OUR WCNTRL AND SRN COUNTIES...HOWEVER...WHERE 3 HR FFG IS
AROUND 1.5 INCHES. WL KEEP HEAT ADVISORY GOING SO WITH 100 HEAT
INDICES ON TRACK.

NOT READY TO BUY INTO THE GFS AND ITS QPF LATE THIS WEEKEND...WL
KEEP REMAINDER OF THE WEEKEND AND ENTIRE EXTENDED DRY WITH THE FA
PREDOMINATELY UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF HIGH PRES.

MOS TEMPS ARE VERY CLOSE AND APPEAR REASONABLE BASED ON EXPECTED
CLOUD COVER...LOW LVL MOISTURE AND LOW LVL THERMAL PROGS.

.IND WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...NONE.
