AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NORTHERN INDIANA
714 AM EDT SAT APR 30 2011

.AVIATION...
SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE OVER LAKE ERIE AT THE START OF THE PERIOD
WILL MOVE EAST AS A COLD FRONT APPROACHES FROM THE WEST. AT THE
ONSET...CONDITIONS WERE VERY DRY IN THE LOWER LEVELS...ALTHOUGH
HIGH CLOUDS WERE TOPPING THE UPSTREAM UPPER RIDGE AND WERE MOVING
INTO THE AREA. HAVE KEPT CONDITIONS VFR THIS TAF PERIOD WITH
SOME SHOWERS MOVING INTO NORTHERN INDIANA AHEAD OF THE FRONT. THE
PRESSURE GRADIENT WILL TIGHTEN TODAY AS THE LOW PRESSURE MOVES
EAST AND WITH DAYTIME MIXING...SO WINDS SHOULD INCREASE TO 18-20
KNOTS WITH GUSTS TO 30 KNOTS.

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 424 AM EDT SAT APR 30 2011/

SHORT TERM...
TODAY THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT...A SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE AREA WAS OVER
OHIO EARLY THIS MORNING WITH RETURN FLOW JUST BEGINNING OVER THE
FORECAST AREA. SURFACE WINDS WILL INCREASE TODAY WITH DAYTIME
HEATING AND AS THE SURFACE PRESSURE GRADIENT TIGHTENS. BUFKIT
MOMENTUM TRANSFER INDICATES WIND GUSTS OVER THE NORTHWEST HALF OF
THE FORECAST AREA BETWEEN 30 AND 40 MPH...ALTHOUGH EXPECT SUSTAINED
WINDS TO REMAIN UNDER 30 MPH. A COLD FRONT WILL APPROACH THE AREA
TONIGHT. MOISTURE FLUX SHOULD INCREASE FROM THE SOUTHWEST AHEAD OF
THE FRONT. KEPT SHOWERS LIKELY WITH A CHANCE FOR THUNDER OVERNIGHT.
BULK SHEAR IS IMPRESSIVE...BUT STABILITY/CAPE VERY IS LIMITED. FOR
SUNDAY AND SUNDAY NIGHT...PREFER THE ECMWF HANDLING OF THE SECOND
SHORTWAVE EJECTING FROM THE SW CONUS. WATER VAPOR SHOWS AN
IMPRESSIVE SIGNATURE UPSTREAM. HAVE ADJUSTED THE TIMING OF THE
SHOWERS AND STORMS SUNDAY AND SUNDAY NIGHT IN THIS REGARD.
OTHERWISE...KEPT TEMPS WARM TODAY...PREFERRING THE GFS/MAV OVER THE
COLDER NAM/MET. THE ECMWF HAS 850 MB TEMPS RISING TO NEAR 12C
OVER WESTERN AREAS.

LONG TERM...

SURFACE COLD FRONT IS EXPECTED TO BE EAST OF THE AREA AT BEGINNING
OF THE LONG TERM PERIOD ON MONDAY. WAVE OF LOW PRESSURE RIDING ALONG
THIS BOUNDARY SUNDAY NIGHT WILL BE MOVING AWAY BUT BACK EDGE OF PCPN
COULD LINGER DURING THE FIRST PART OF MONDAY IN THE FAR SOUTHEAST.
COLD FRONT WILL BEGIN TO STALL OVER THE SOUTHERN OHIO AND TN VALLEY
AS IT BECOMES ALIGNED WITH MID LEVEL FLOW. SEVERAL WEAK DISTURBANCES
ARE PROGGED TO RIDE ALONG THIS BOUNDARY AS MID LEVEL TROUGH REMAINS
OVER THE GREAT LAKES AND SLOWLY CROSSES OUR AREA ON TUESDAY. THERE
IS SOME CONCERN FOR SHRA DEVELOPMENT OVER THE AREA WITH THIS TROUGH
AND ANY SURFACE WAVE ALONG FRONT TUESDAY INTO TUESDAY NIGHT. MODELS
HINTING AT THIS BUT ALSO SHOWING SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING
ACROSS OUR AREA AND FRONT WELL TO OUR SOUTHEAST. QPF PROGS LOOKS
OVERDONE ON NORTHERN PERIPHERY GIVEN THE DRIER AIR MOVING IN WITH
HIGH. WILL LEAVE POPS OUT OF FORECAST FOR NOW ON MONDAY NIGHT INTO
TUESDAY BUT THIS WILL NEED TO BE WATCHED WITH RESPECT TO ACTUAL
FRONTAL POSITION AND MID LEVEL TROUGH.

SHORT WAVE RIDGING MOVES IN FOR WEDNESDAY WITH HIGH PRESSURE AT
SURFACE AND WHAT LOOKS TO BE A PLEASANT DAY. TIMING ISSUES CONTINUE
WITH NEXT SHORT WAVE AND COLD FRONT WITH ECMWF NOW BEING FASTER THAN
PRIOR RUNS WHILE GFS SLOWER. KEPT POPS IN FOR THURSDAY NIGHT INTO
FRIDAY AS THURSDAY NIGHT LOOKS TO BE BEST PERIOD FOR PCPN. COULD SEE
NEED FOR POPS INTO THURSDAY AFTERNOON IF FASTER TIMING PANS OUT.

TEMPS GENERALLY BELOW NORMAL THROUGH THE PERIOD WITH NORTHERLY FLOW
AND 850MB TEMPS DROPPING BELOW 0C AT TIMES. WITH HIGH PRESSURE
MOVING IN COULD SEE A COUPLE NIGHTS WELL INTO THE 30S WITH FROST
POSSIBLE BUT THIS REMAINS DEPENDENT ON AMOUNT OF CIRRUS CANOPY ON
NORTH SIDE OF FRONT SO KEPT TEMPS IN MID TO UPPER 30S.
