What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this severe thunderstorm warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS Indianapolis, IN wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Jun 10, 4:26 PM EDT, 16 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jun 10, 4:26 PM EDT, 16 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE INDIANAPOLIS IN
426 PM EDT FRI JUN 10 2011

.UPDATE...
AVIATION SECTION UPDATED

&&

.SYNOPSIS...A FRONTAL SYSTEM ACROSS THE AREA WILL KEEP
THUNDERSTORMS IN THE FORECAST THROUGH SATURDAY...WITH POTENTIAL
FOR SEVERE THROUGH LATE TONIGHT. THE PASSAGE OF A COLD FRONT ON
SATURDAY WILL USHER IN COOLER TEMPERATURES AND CANADIAN HIGH
PRESSURE WILL BUILD IN FOR SUNDAY AND MONDAY. BY TUESDAY NIGHT
ANOTHER FRONTAL SYSTEM WILL BRING IN THUNDERSTORM CHANCES THROUGH
THURSDAY AND TEMPERATURES WILL SLOWLY INCREASE BACK INTO THE
MIDDLE 80S BY WEDNESDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT/...
INSTABILITY CONTINUES TO BUILD OVER THE AREA AND LAPS CAPES ARE
CURRENTLY RUNNING 2000-3000 J/KG. OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES AROUND THE
AREA FROM CONVECTION LAST NIGHT AND EARLIER TODAY ARE SERVING AS
EXTRA FOCUSING MECHANISMS FOR CONVECTION...IN ADDITION TO THE WARM
FRONT AND THE MCV MOVING INTO THE AREA. THUS UPPED POPS TO LIKELY
OVER THE CENTRAL FORECAST AREA AND HIGH CHANCE ELSEWHERE. ADDED
SEVERE WORDING FOR DAMAGING WINDS AND HAIL AND WITH HIGH
PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES AND THE BOUNDARY WILL ALSO HAVE TO
MONITOR FOR HEAVY RAIN AND TRAINING. CAVEAT TO SEVERE THREAT IS
THAT LACK OF ANY DECENT SHEAR IS KEEPING STORMS IN PULSE MODE AND
NOT ALLOWING FOR MUCH IN THE WAY OF ORGANIZATION...BUT THIS COULD
CHANGE AS THE MCV ARRIVES AND ENHANCES LOCAL HELICITY. AFTER THE
MCV MOVES THROUGH THE COLD FRONT COULD BE ARRIVING AND FORCING
MORE STORMS SO KEEPING LIKELIES GOING FOR TONIGHT IN THE NORTHWEST
HALF WITH HIGH CHANCES SOUTHEAST. FOR TEMPERATURES A GUIDANCE
CONSENSUS WAS USED.

&&

.SHORT TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT/...
THE COLD FRONT WILL BE IN OR APPROACHING THE NORTHWEST PART OF THE
FORECAST AREA SATURDAY MORNING SO CONVECTION ASSOCIATED WITH THAT
SHOULD BE ONGOING AHEAD OF THE FRONT. THE FRONT SHOULD PASS
THROUGH THE AREA BY AFTERNOON AND THUS HAVE TAPERED POPS DOWN FROM
THE NORTHWEST TO THE SOUTHEAST THROUGH THE EVENING HOURS.
TEMPERATURES IN THE NORTHWEST COULD START TO FALL DURING THE
AFTERNOON AS WELL. BY SATURDAY NIGHT HIGH PRESSURE WILL START TO
BUILD IN AND KEEP THE WEATHER FOR SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY
NIGHT DRY. WITH COLD ADVECTION BEHIND THE FRONT WILL SEE COOLER
TEMPERATURES FOR LOWS SATURDAY NIGHT AND SUNDAY NIGHT /THE 50S/ AND
HIGHS SUNDAY ONLY IN THE 70S.

&&

.LONG TERM /MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
ENSEMBLES SHOWING DECENT AGREEMENT IN THE LONG TERM FOR A RIDGE
BUILDING IN SUNDAY THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT. BY TUESDAY AFTERNOON THE
RIDGE STARTS TO BREAK DOWN AND ANOTHER FRONTAL SYSTEM WILL MOVE
THROUGH THE AREA WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY AND WILL SEE THUNDERSTORM
CHANCES FROM TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY WHEN ANOTHER RIDGE
STARTS TO BUILD IN FOR FRIDAY. HPC GUIDANCE LOOKS GOOD FOR
HIGHS IN THE LOW TO MIDDLE 80S AFTER MONDAY/S 70S.

&&

.AVIATION.../UPDATE FOR 21Z IND TAF/...

VFR CONDITIONS EXPECTED TO CONTINUE. CURRENT RADAR TRENDS SUGGEST
NO IMMEDIATE TSRA THREAT TO THE IND AIRPORT AS BEST ACTIVITY IS
WELL EAST AND SOUTH OF THE TAF SITES. FOR NOW VCTS AND CB MENTION
WILL WORK FINE.

BELOW...DISCUSSION FOR 101800Z TAFS...

MVFR FOG OVERNIGHT...OTHERWISE EXPECT VFR CONDITIONS OUTSIDE OF
THUNDERSTORMS.

BOUNDARY ACROSS CENTRAL INDIANA WILL GRADUALLY LIFT NORTH THIS
AFTERNOON BUT BE THE FOCUS FOR THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT AS AN AREA
OF LOW PRESSURE RIDES ALONG IT. WITH NO CLEAR CUT TIME OF
DEVELOPMENT YET...WILL CONTINUE TO USE CB TO HIGHLIGHT CONVECTIVE
THREAT. SOUTHEAST AT KIND/KLAF WILL SHIFT TO SOUTHWEST AS BOUNDARY
LIFTS NORTH.

CONVECTION SHOULD THEN DIE OFF FOR A WHILE TONIGHT...BUT AS FRONT
RETURNS SOUTH OVERNIGHT INTO SATURDAY MORNING ADDITIONAL STORMS WILL
RETURN. WILL AGAIN USE CB MENTION UNTIL TIMING CAN BE BETTER
FORECAST. FRONT WILL THEN SINK SOUTH OF THE AREA BY SATURDAY
AFTERNOON...ENDING THE CONVECTIVE THREAT.

WITH MOIST ATMOSPHERE IN PLACE...AND PERHAPS SOME RAINFALL THIS
AFTERNOON...MVFR FOG SHOULD DEVELOP OVERNIGHT.
