AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE INDIANAPOLIS IN
245 PM EDT MON MAY 2 2011

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

&&

.SYNOPSIS...
AREAS OF LOW PRESSURE WILL MOVE ALONG A FRONT IN
KENTUCKY...KEEPING RAIN IN THE FORECAST INTO TUESDAY. AFTER A
BREAK ON WEDNESDAY...ADDITIONAL AREAS OF LOW PRESSURE WILL MOVE
THROUGH THE AREA THROUGH THE WEEKEND...KEEPING CHANCES FOR RAIN
AROUND.

&&

.NEAR TERM /TONIGHT/...

FOCUS IS ON CHANCES FOR RAIN AND FLOODING CONCERNS. MODELS ARE
SIMILAR SO TOOK A BLEND.

ISENTROPIC LIFT...FRONTOGENETICAL FORCING...AND DIVERGENCE FROM
UPPER JET TO OUR NORTHWEST WILL COMBINE WITH PLENTIFUL MOISTURE TO
PRODUCE RAIN ACROSS THE AREA TONIGHT. RAIN IS ALREADY SPREADING
INTO THE SOUTHWEST FORECAST AREA...AND RAIN STRETCHES BACK INTO
ARKANSAS AND TEXAS. THUS WENT CATEGORICAL POPS MOST AREAS TONIGHT.

THE EXCEPTION TO THE CATEGORICAL POPS WILL BE ACROSS THE FAR
NORTHWEST...WHERE DRIER AIR MAY HELP ERODE SOME OF THE
PRECIPITATION. WILL GO HIGH CHANCE OR LOW LIKELY POPS THERE.

PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES WILL BE A LITTLE LESS THAN THEY WERE
LAST NIGHT...BUT STILL HIGH ENOUGH SO THAT HEAVY RAIN IS STILL A
POSSIBILITY ACROSS THE SOUTH. RAINFALL AMOUNTS COULD EXCEED ONE
INCH AGAIN ACROSS THE SOUTH. GIVEN THE PROBLEMS THAT ARE ALREADY
ONGOING AND THE SATURATED GROUND...THE FLOOD WATCH LOOKS GOOD.

WENT WITH A BLEND OF TEMPERATURES FOR LOWS TONIGHT.

&&

.SHORT TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...

FOCUS IS ON TIMING OF PRECIPITATION ACROSS THE AREA. NAM IS A
SLOWER OUTLIER WITH THURSDAY/S SYSTEM...SO RELIED LESS ON IT BY
THEN. OTHERWISE TOOK A GENERAL BLEND.

RAIN IN THE MORNING WILL DIMINISH FROM WEST TO EAST DURING THE DAY
AS MAIN FORCING EXITS WITH THE SURFACE WAVE. HOWEVER UPPER TROUGH
WILL STILL BE MOVING ACROSS THE AREA...SO CHANCE POPS DURING THE
AFTERNOON STILL LOOK GOOD. ALTHOUGH THE HEAVY RAIN WILL BE OUT OF
THE AREA BY TUESDAY MORNING...EFFECTS FROM OVERNIGHT RAIN WILL BE
CONTINUING. THUS WILL CONTINUE FLOOD WATCH THROUGH TUESDAY
AFTERNOON.

WITH THE UPPER TROUGH STILL MOVING ACROSS THE AREA TUESDAY EVENING
HAVE DECIDED TO ADD SLIGHT CHANCE POPS DURING THE EVENING MOST
AREAS. AS THE SYSTEM EXITS THE OVERNIGHT SHOULD BE DRY.

UPPER RIDGING AND SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE WILL PROVIDE DRY YET COOL
CONDITIONS WEDNESDAY. ANOTHER UPPER WAVE WILL APPROACH THE AREA ON
THURSDAY WITH LIFT INCREASING DURING THE DAY ACROSS THE WEST.
GIVEN THE FASTER SPEED SEE ON THE GFS/00Z ECMWF...HAVE EXPANDED
POPS EAST A BIT THURSDAY AFTERNOON.

FOR TEMPERATURES THROUGH THE PERIOD...RELIED MORE ON A BLEND OF
MODELS AS THIS REPRESENTS THE BEST TEMPERATURES GIVEN THE EXPECTED
CONDITIONS.

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY/...

FOCUS IS ON TRYING TO FIND AN EXTENDED DRY PERIOD...OR IN OTHER
WORDS ON CHANCES FOR RAIN THROUGH THE PERIOD. STILL SOME
VARIABILITY IN THE MODELS...SO CONTINUED TO RELY ON A BLEND OF
ENSEMBLES AND HPC.

CHANCES FOR RAIN WILL STILL EXIST ON FRIDAY AS A SYSTEM EXITS THE
AREA...ALTHOUGH CHANCES SEEM TO BE DECREASING AS SYSTEM APPEARS A
BIT FASTER. RIGHT ON ITS HEELS IS YET ANOTHER SYSTEM FOR SATURDAY
INTO SUNDAY. CONTINUED CHANCE POPS DURING THIS PERIOD...ALTHOUGH
IF SYSTEMS CONTINUE TO SPEED UP MAY BE ABLE TO LOWER POPS ON
SUNDAY. AT THE MOMENT...MONDAY LOOKS DRY WITH HIGH PRESSURE MOVING
IN.

TEMPERATURES LOOK TO RETURN TO SEASONABLE LEVELS BY THE WEEKEND.

&&

.AVIATION /DISCUSSION FOR THE 02/18Z TAFS/...
A LITTLE MORE IMPROVEMENT MAY TEMPORARILY OCCUR THIS AFTERNOON AS
SLIGHTLY DRIER AIR PUSHES INTO OUR REGION.  KHUF AND KLAF WILL BE
VFR AND KIND AND KBMG SHOULD IMPROVE TO VFR NEXT HOUR OR TWO.

AFTER 00Z CONDITIONS WILL WORSEN AS LOW PRESSURE OVER THE LOWER
MISSISSIPPI MOVES NORTH NORTHEAST ALONG A STATIONARY FRONT ACROSS
WESTERN TENNESSEE AND EASTERN KENTUCKY. THIS WILL CAUSE RAIN TO
SPREAD NORTH ACROSS OUR REGION AND CEILINGS SHOULD DROP BACK INTO
THE IFR CATEGORY AT KIND AND KBMG BY LATE EVENING AND MVFR AT KHUF.
KLAF COULD REMAIN VFR...ALTHOUGH SCATTERED SHOWERS WILL BE
POSSIBLE.

ON TUESDAY A GRADUAL IMPROVEMENT FROM WEST TO EAST WILL OCCUR AS THE
SURFACE LOW MOVES ON INTO WEST VIRGINIA AND EVENTUALLY THE MID
ATLANTIC STATES BY END OF THE PERIOD.

WINDS WILL MOSTLY BE FROM A NORTHERLY COMPONENT AROUND 8 KNOTS OR
LESS BECOMING NORTHWEST ON TUESDAY.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...

FLOOD WATCH STILL LOOKS GOOD WITH OVER AN INCH OF RAIN EXPECTED
ACROSS THE WATCH AREA INTO TUESDAY. RAIN FALLING ON THE SATURATED
GROUND WILL RUN RIGHT OFF INTO STREAMS...CAUSING THEM TO RISE AS
WAS SEEN LAST NIGHT. HIGHER WATER LEVELS WILL PERSIST INTO
TUESDAY...SO WATCH WILL CONTINUE THROUGH TUESDAY AFTERNOON.

THIS RAIN WILL LIKELY PROLONG RIVER FLOODING ACROSS MAINLY THE
SOUTHERN FORECAST AREA.

&&

.IND WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
FLOOD WATCH THROUGH TUESDAY AFTERNOON FOR INZ055>057-060>065-
067>072.
