AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE INDIANAPOLIS IN
1036 PM EDT SUN SEP 25 2011

.UPDATE...
THE NEAR TERM SECTION HAS BEEN UPDATED BELOW.

&&

.SYNOPSIS...AN UPPER LEVEL LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL LINGER NEAR
CENTRAL INDIANA DURING THE FIRST FEW DAYS OF THE WORK
WEEK...BRINGING DAILY CHANCES FOR RAIN THROUGH WEDNESDAY.

AFTER WEDNESDAY UPPER RIDGING OVER THE WESTERN UNITED STATES IS
EXPECTED TO BUILD EAST INTO THE GREAT LAKES AND OHIO VALLEY. THIS
WILL RESULT IN DRY WEATHER WITH TEMPERATURES AT OR SLIGHTLY BELOW
NORMAL.

&&

.NEAR TERM /REST OF TONIGHT/...

BASED ON RADAR TRENDS AND LATEST MODEL DATA...EXTENDED THE HIGHER
POPS LATER IN THE NIGHT ACROSS THE EASTERN FORECAST AREA. ALSO
TWEAKED TEMPERATURES. PRESSURE FALLS WOULD INDICATE THE SURFACE LOW
GOING FARTHER EAST THAN EXPECTED...WHICH WOULD KEEP MOST OF THE
WARMER AIR EAST OF CENTRAL INDIANA.

UPPED WINDS A BIT AS GUSTS OVER 20KT ARE BEING REPORTED AS SURFACE
LOW APPROACHES. PLENTY OF RAINFALL WILL LIKELY CAUSE PONDING OF
WATER ON ROADS AND LOW LYING AREAS...AND THIS IS ADDRESSED IN THE
HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK.

&&

.SHORT TERM /MONDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...

MODELS REMAIN IN PRETTY GOOD AGREEMENT AND WILL USE A BLEND. MAIN
FORECAST CHALLENGE WILL BE ON POPS.

GFS AND NAM SUGGEST MUCH DRIER AIR WORKING ACROSS THE STATE ON
TUESDAY IN THE WAKE OF THE FRONTAL PASSAGE PUSHING ACROSS THE
STATE TONIGHT. HOWEVER...FORECAST SOUNDINGS ON MONDAY INDICATE
CONVECTIVE TEMPERATURES IN THE LOWER 60S...BUT MINIMAL CAPE AND
MOISTURE ALOFT. BROAD CYCLONIC LOWER LEVEL FLOW ALSO CONTINUES.
THUS WILL KEEP SOME LOW CHANCE POPS FOR MONDAY...MAINLY DURING THE
AFTERNOON HOURS TO COVER THE RENEGADE LIGHT RAIN SHOWER. WILL USE
A BLEND FOR HIGH TEMPERATURES.

UPPER LOW BEGINS TO SLOWLY SURGE EASTWARD TOWARD INDIANA ON
MONDAY NIGHT AND TIME HEIGHT SECTIONS AND FORECAST SOUNDINGS ONCE
AGAIN SHOW DEEP SATURATION WITH LIFT AS ANOTHER WAVE SPOKES
AROUND THE LOW. THUS WILL AGAIN RAISE POPS DURING THIS PERIOD AND
AGAIN TREND LOW TEMPERATURES TOWARD EXPECTED WET BULB TEMPS.

UPPER LOW WILL SLOWLY DRIFT ACROSS NORTHERN INDIANA ON TUESDAY...
WITH STRONG CYCLONIC FLOW IN PLACE...WITH FORECAST SOUNDINGS AND
TIME HEIGHTS AGAIN INDICATING GOOD LIFT AND SATURATION. THUS
EXPECT PLENTY OF CLOUD ALONG WITH SOME SHRA. HAVE AGAIN RAISED
POPS AND USED A BLEND ON HIGH TEMPERATURES.

THE UPPER LOW BEGINS TO DEPART THE AREA ON TUESDAY NIGHT INTO
WEDNESDAY...SLOWLY DRIFTING TO THE NORTHEAST. HOWEVER BROAD
CYCLONIC FLOW IS EXPECTED TO CONTINUE AND THE GFS AND NAM BOTH
SUGGEST ANOTHER UPPER SHORT WAVE WORKING AROUND THE BROAD FLOW ON
TUESDAY NIGHT AND AGAIN ON WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON. THUS WILL AGAIN
INCLUDE SOME POPS...PARTICULARLY ACROSS THE NORTH DURING THIS
PERIOD. AGAIN WILL TREND TOWARD WETBULBS ON LOWS AND USE A BLEND
ON WEDNESDAY HIGHS.

&&

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY/...

THE EXTENDED PERIOD LOOKS RELATIVELY QUIET AND DRY AS COMPARED TO
THE LAST FEW DAYS. THE UPPER LOW WILL HAVE LONG SINCE EXITED THE
REGION AND A WEAK RIDGE WILL BUILD IN THEREAFTER. ANOTHER UPPER LOW
WILL DIVE ACROSS THE GREAT LAKES REGION BUT MODELS KEEP THIS FEATURE
FAR ENOUGH NORTH THAT IT SHOULD NOT HAVE MUCH OF AN IMPACT ON THE
AREA...OTHER THAN A DRY COLD FRONT. A MORE BROAD AND SUBSTANTIAL
RIDGE BUILDS IN BY NEXT WEEKEND AND DRY CONDITIONS WILL
PREVAIL...ALONG WITH WARMING TEMPS.

&&

.AVIATION /DISCUSSION FOR THE 260300Z KIND TAF UPDATE/...

LARGE AREA OF MODERATE/OCCASIONAL HEAVY RAIN WITH EMBEDDED LIGHTNING
STRIKES CONTINUES TO LIFT NORTH AHEAD OF DEVELOPING LOW PRESSURE
OVER WESTERN KENTUCKY. SHORT TERM MODEL DATA SUGGESTS LIFT WILL
BEING TAPERING OFF TOWARDS 260500Z...SO THE HEAVIER RAINS/THUNDER
THREAT SHOULD DIMINISH AFTER THAT TIME. MADE SOME ADJUSTMENTS TO
THE WIND FORECAST OVER THE NEXT FEW HOURS...BUT OVERALL FORECAST
STILL LOOKS GOOD. PREVIOUS DISCUSSION FOLLOWS.

LARGE AREA OF LIGHT/MODERATE RAIN...AND ASSOCIATED MAINLY MVFR
CONDITIONS...EXPECTED TO CONTINUE ACROSS THE TAF SITES THIS EVENING
AS LIFT INTENSIFIES AHEAD OF DEVELOPING LOW. STRONG LIFT PROGGED BY
THE MODELS LATE TONIGHT AIDED BY A 45-55 KT LOW LEVEL JET COUPLED
WITH WEAK ELEVATED INSTABILITY AHEAD OF A DRY SLOT SUGGESTS GOOD
POTENTIAL FOR LIGHTNING STRIKES IN THE VICINITY OF TAF
SITES...MAINLY BETWEEN 260100Z-260600Z. CONDITIONS EXPECTED TO DROP
INTO THE IFR CATEGORY FOR A PERIOD AFTER PRECIPITATION DIMINISHES
AND BEFORE PASSAGE OF SURFACE LOW.

TOUGH WIND FORECAST TONIGHT GIVEN DEVELOPING LOW PRESSURE AND IT/S
EVENTUAL TRACK. BEST GUESS AT THIS TIME IS FOR WINDS TO BACK TO
EASTERLY DIRECTION EARLY THIS EVENING...FOLLOWED BY A GRADUAL
VEERING TO A SOUTH SOUTHEAST DIRECTION BY LATE TONIGHT...AND
EVENTUALLY A WIND SHIFT TO THE SOUTHWEST AFTER 260600Z. FOR THE MOST
PART...SURFACE WINDS SHOULD BE UNDER 15 KTS...BUT IF THE LOW TRACKS
FARTHER WEST...COULD BE SOME WIND GUSTS APPROACHING 20 KTS FROM THE
SOUTHEAST...ESPECIALLY AT KIND.

GIVEN THE STRENGTH OF THE LOW LEVEL JET PROGGED ON THE MODELS...LOW
LEVEL WIND SHEAR MAY BECOME A CONCERN LATE TONIGHT...BUT WILL WAIT
AND SEE HOW THINGS EVOLVE LATER THIS EVENING REGARDING WIND SHEAR.

.IND WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
