What forecasters said that day

Area forecast discussion, Jun 2, 4:02 AM EDT, 32 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE INDIANAPOLIS IN
402 AM EDT WED JUN 2 2010

.UPDATE...
THE NEAR TERM AND SHORT TERM SECTIONS HAVE BEEN UPDATED BELOW.

&&

.SYNOPSIS...

A COLD FRONT WILL MOVE THROUGH THE AREA TODAY INTO THURSDAY
BRINGING CHANCES FOR THUNDERSTORMS TO THE REGION THROUGH
THURSDAY EVENING. HIGH PRESSURE WILL BRIEFLY ESTABLISH FRIDAY
BEFORE ANOTHER COLD FRONT BRINGS ADDITIONAL CHANCES FOR
THUNDERSTORMS SATURDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /TODAY/...

CURRENTLY ON THE RADAR AN MCS IS UNDERWAY ACROSS CENTRAL IL. THIS
FEATURE WILL MOVE INTO NORTHERN/CENTRAL INDIANA THIS MORNING,
BRINGING WITH IT STRONG/SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS AND VERY HEAVY
RAINFALL. A FLASH FLOOD WATCH WAS ISSUED EARLIER THIS MORNING TO
ACCOUNT FOR THE HEAVY RAIN EXPECTED. CURRENT RADAR PRECIP
ESTIMATES OVER IL INDICATE AMOUNTS AROUND 3 TO 4 INCHES...WHICH IS
PROBABLY OVERDONE, BUT EVEN A FEW INCHES OF RAIN OVER A SHORT
PERIOD OF TIME CAN CAUSE FLOODING.

SEVERAL SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WARNINGS HAVE BEEN ISSUED UPSTREAM
ACROSS MUCH OF CENTRAL AND NRN IL IN ASSOCIATION WITH THE MCS. SPC
HAS THUS WENT AHEAD AND ISSUE SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 244 WHICH
INCLUDES MUCH OF CENTRAL INDIANA UNTIL 8 AM THIS MORNING. SHORT
RANGE MODELS INDICATE THE MCS WILL WEAKEN SOMEWHAT AS IT NEARS
THE IL/IN STATE BORDER BUT SHOULD STILL BE CAPABLE OF PRODUCING
SEVERE WIND GUSTS AND POSSIBLY HAIL. MCS SHOULD FURTHER WEAKEN AS
IT CROSSES EASTERN INDIANA AND LATER RE-INTENSITY AS IT MOVES OVR
OHIO THIS AFTERNOON.

DEPENDING ON MUCH CLEARING WE SEE IN IT'S WAKE LATER THIS MORNING
AND AFTERNOON, WILL DEPEND ON THUNDERSTORMS CHANCES THIS
AFTERNOON. THERE SHOULD BE PLENTY OF INSTABILITY REMAINING WITH
CAPES AROUND 2000 J/KG AND LI'S OF -6/-7. FOR NOW HAVE LEFT IN
CHANCE POPS THIS AFTERNOON...IF WE DO WARM UP ENOUGH TO INITIATE
MORE CONVECTION IT SHOULD BE PRETTY SCATTERED IN COVERAGE.

&&

.SHORT TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT/...

MORE STRONG/SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ARE POSSIBLE TONIGHT...ESPECIALLY
ACROSS THE NORTHERN TIER OF THE FORECAST AREA WHERE THE
GFS/SREF/EURO/GEM ALL PROG ANOTHER MCS TO DEVELOP TO THE WEST OF
US THIS LATE THIS AFTERNOON/EVENING AND PUSH EAST ACROSS AREA OVERNIGHT.

THE GFS IS EXTREMELY BULLISH WITH THIS FEATURE...PROJECTING QPF IN
UPWARDS OF 4" ACROSS OUR NORTHERN COUNTIES. THE REST OF THE MODEL
SUITE IS NOT NEARLY AS HEAVY WITH THE QPF...BUT DO SHOW HIGHER
AMOUNTS ACROSS THE NORTH. THE NAM IS BY FAR THE OUTLIER MODEL
DURING THIS TIME AS IT IS NOT SHOWING THE MCS AT ALL. LEANED
TOWARD THE REST OF THE MODEL SUITE THIS PACKAGE AND ISSUED A FLASH
FLOOD WATCH FOR NORTH TIER...WHICH GOES THRU THU AFTN TO ACCOUNT
FOR ADDITIONAL QPF WITH MAIN PASSAGE OF SLOW MOVING COLD FRONT.
LOOKS LIKE A DECENT AMOUNT OF FORCING WITH THE FRONT...SO WILL GO
LIKELY POPS ACROSS THE ENTIRE AREA...TRANSITIONING FROM NW TO SE
IN THE GRIDS.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...

FOCUS CONTINUES TO BE ON CHANCES FOR RAIN.

ANOTHER COLD FRONT WILL MOVE THROUGH THE AREA FRIDAY NIGHT INTO
SATURDAY NIGHT...SO KEPT CHANCE POPS THEN. UNCERTAINTY INCREASES
LATER IN THE LONG TERM WITH AREA IN NORTHWEST FLOW ALOFT. MODELS
HINT AT ONE OR MORE WAVES IN THE FLOW BRINGING MORE RAIN BY EARLY
NEXT WEEK...BUT TIMING AND LOCATION VARIES BETWEEN THE MODELS.
WITH THE UNCERTAINTY DECIDED TO CONTINUE DRY FORECAST MONDAY AND
TUESDAY FOR NOW RATHER THAN INUNDATE THE FORECAST WITH CHANCE POPS.

&&

.AVIATION.../DISCUSSION FOR 020600Z TAFS/...
THUNDERSTORM COMPLEX ACROSS IOWA AND NORTHWEST ILLINOIS COULD REACH
KLAF BY 10Z AND KIND AND KHUF BY 11Z-12Z. RAPID REFRESH AND MOST
SHORT TERM MODELS INDICATE THUNDERSTORMS MAY BREAK UP BY MID
MORNING...SO WILL ONLY MENTION ABOUT 4 HOURS OF VCTS FROM KIND-KHUF
AND NORTHWARD.

A COLD FRONT ACROSS WISCONSIN AND IOWA WILL MOVE TO NORTHWEST
INDIANA BY 00Z THURSDAY AND TO CENTRAL INDIANA BY THE END OF THE
PERIOD.  WITH DAYTIME HEATING NUMEROUS THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TO
REDEVELOP WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON AND MOVE SOUTH ACROSS OUR REGION AFTER
00Z THURSDAY.

CONDITIONS MOSTLY VFR OUTSIDE OF THUNDERSTORMS.  ONLY EXCEPTIONS
WILL MENTION MVFR FOG LATE TONIGHT AT KBMG CAUSE TEMPERATURE
DEWPOINT SPREAD ONLY A COUPLE OF DEGREES.  MODEL SOUNDINGS INDICATE
PREVAILING CEILINGS MAY BECOME MVFR TOWARD END OF THE FORECAST
PERIOD.
