AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NORTHERN INDIANA
729 PM EDT FRI MAY 21 2010

.AVIATION...
AN UPPER LOW AND ASSOCIATED SFC LOW WAS MOVING EAST. THE BULK OF
THE SHOWERS ASSOCIATED WITH THIS SYSTEM SHOULD CLEAR SBN AND FWA
BY 02Z. KEPT A TEMPO GROUP AT FWA UNTIL 02Z FOR SOME LINGERING
STORMS. OTHERWISE...SOME LIGHT SHOWERS AND/OR AREAS OF DRIZZLE ARE
EXPECTED OVERNIGHT. EXPECT IFR CONDITIONS TO DEVELOP OVERNIGHT. THE
CONDITIONS SHOULD IMPROVE SATURDAY AS THE LOW WEAKENS AND DRIFTS
EAST.

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 359 PM EDT FRI MAY 21 2010/

SHORT TERM...
TONIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT...THE MAIN CONCERN IS THE POTENTIAL
FOR SEVERE STORMS...BUT ALSO FOR FLOODING. SOME TRAINING OF STORMS
ON THE LATEST RADAR SCANS INDICATE THE POTENTIAL FOR HEAVY RAIN...
SO GIVEN REPORTS OF SOME FLOODING IN ELKHART AND RADAR/SFC REPORTS
OF HEAVY RAIN...WILL CONTINUE TO MENTION THE POTENTIAL FOR HEAVY
RAIN. SPC MESO ANALYSIS INDICATES CAPE VALUES HAVE RISEN OVER 1000
J/KG OVER SOUTHEAST AREAS WHERE STORMS HAVE YET TO OCCUR. ONGOING
CONVECTION AHEAD OF THE APPROACHING FRONT WILL LIKELY MAKE IT
HARDER FOR STORMS TO BECOME SEVERE OVER WEST AREAS AHEAD OF THE
FRONT...HOWEVER...GIVEN CELL MERGERS ON RADAR AND SOME EARLIER
REPORTS OF WIND DAMAGE IN ELKHART AND THREE RIVERS...THE POTENTIAL
FOR STORMS TO BECOME SEVERE CONTINUES THIS AFTERNOON. OTHERWISE...
THE UPPER LOW WAS OVER NE IL AND WILL CONTINUE TO LIFT NORTHEAST
AS A LARGE TROF DIGS DOWNSTREAM. PRECIPITATION SHOULD END FROM
WEST TO EAST LATE TONIGHT AND EARLY SATURDAY. HAVE ADDED SOME
DRIZZLE OVERNIGHT GIVEN UPPER AIR PROFILES. OTHERWISE...CONDITIONS
SHOULD DRY OUT SATURDAY.

LONG TERM...
SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY. LITTLE CHNG TO ONGOING CONSISTENT AND WARM
LONG TERM PD. 12 UTC GUIDANCE SUITES TRENDING TOWARD GENERAL
