$$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 Northern Indiana wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Jun 4, 2:46 PM EDT, 2 hours 51 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Jun 4, 2:46 PM EDT, 2 hours 51 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NORTHERN INDIANA 246 PM EDT SAT JUN 4 2011 .SHORT TERM.../TONIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT/ EXTREMELY UNSTABLE AIRMASS IN PLACE ACROSS THE CWA THIS AFTN WITH 3-4KJ/KG MIXED LAYER CAPE AND LITTLE TO NO CONVECTIVE INHIBITION. ALTHOUGH FORCING ASSOCIATED WITH CDFNT/SHRTWV MOVG ACROSS SRN WI/NW IL IS WEAK...IT MAY BE SUFFICIENT WHEN COMBINED WITH LAKE BREEZE INTERACTION FOR SCT TSTM DEVELOPMENT AS IT MOVES SE ACROSS THE AREA LATE THIS AFTN/EVE. GIVEN LARGE CAPE/DCAPE AND AROUND 30KT 0-6KM SHEAR... THERE IS POTENTIAL FOR SVR STORMS... WITH DAMAGING WINDS THE MAIN THREAT. INITIAL STORM DEVELOPMENT COULD ALSO CONTAIN LARGE HAIL AS 800 J/KG CAPE IN HAIL GROWTH ZONE AND RELATIVELY DRY MID LEVEL AIR SHOULD COUNTERACT DETRIMENTAL AFFECTS OF 13-14KFT FREEZING LEVELS. ASSUMING CONVECTIVE INITIATION DOES OCCUR... A QUICK TRANSITION FROM CELLS TO SMALL BOWS LIKELY GIVEN UNIDIRECTIONAL FLOW EVIDENT ON WOLCOTT PROFILER. CONVECTION SHOULD MOVE OUT OF SRN PORTION OF THE AREA BY 06Z AS CDFNT MOVES INTO SRN IN/OH. SFC HIGH WILL MOVE INTO THE UPR GRTLKS BEHIND THIS FRONT PROVIDING FAIR WEATHER ACROSS THE AREA SUNDAY. AS THE HIGH MOVES TO THE LWR GRTLKS SUNDAY NIGHT WAA WILL DEVELOP ACROSS OUR CWA. CONVECTION PSBL LATE TONIGHT AND AGAIN SUNDAY NIGHT OVER THE PLAINS WHERE STALLING/RETREATING FRONT AT NOSE OF LLJ WILL PROVIDE SOME ISENT LIFT/LOW LEVEL THETA-E ADVECTION. THIS ACTIVITY SHOULD MOVE SE AND ATTM EXPECT IT WILL REMAIN WEST OF OUR CWA SO DRY WX FCST AFT 06Z TONIGHT THROUGH MONDAY MORNING WITH CONVECTIVE DEBRIS EXPECTED TO RESULT IN PARTLY CLOUDY SKIES. LITTLE CHANGE TO GOING TEMP GRIDS OR 12Z MOS GUIDANCE WITH TEMPS EXPECTED TO FALL BACK CLOSER TO NORMAL TONIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT. && .LONG TERM...MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY A NORTH ATLANTIC OMEGA BLOCK WILL HOLD THROUGH MUCH OF THE PERIOD SUPPORTING A PERSISTENT LARGE SCALE FLOW PATTERN ACROSS NOAM. THE LOCAL AREA WILL GENERALLY BE LOCATED ON THE NORTHERN PERIPHERY OF AN EXPANSIVE RIDGE THAT WILL BE CENTERED ACROSS THE LOWER MS VALLEY AND SRN/CENTRAL PLAINS. LOW AMPLITUDE SHORTWAVES AND/OR CONVECTIVELY MODIFIED VORT MAXES WILL LIKELY PROPAGATE EWD OVER/ALONG THE RIDGE AXIS. THESE WEAK MID LVL IMPULSES WILL LIKELY AID IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF SHOWERS/SHOWERS ALONG A LOW LEVEL THETA-E RIDGE / HIGH PWAT / AXIS THAT WILL MIXING NEWD ACROSS THE AREA MONDAY INTO TUESDAY. WITH THIS CONTINUED WITH CHC POPS MAINLY MONDAY AFTN AND NIGHT...AND ADDED LOW CHC POPS TO TUESDAY MORNING IN THE NE WITH THE BOUNDARY NEAR. MEDIUM RANGE MODEL GUIDANCE CONTINUES TO LIFT THE THE WARM FRONT/THETA-E RIDGE NORTH OF THE FA TUESDAY AFTERNOON INTO WEDNESDAY AS THE UPPER RIDGE BUILDS NWD INTO THE SOUTHERN GREAT LAKES IN RESPONSE TO HIGH PLAINS HEIGHT FALLS. HIGH TEMPS NEAR 90F WILL BE POSSIBLE IN THE SW ON TUESDAY...WITH WEDNESDAY HIGHS NEAR 90F CWA-WIDE. BUILDING HUMIDITY DURING THIS TIME WILL SUPPORT INCREASINGLY UNSTABLE CONDITIONS...ALTHOUGH LACK OF ANY OBVIOUS TRIGGER AND SUBTLE MID LVL CAPPING/DRYING ENOUGH TO CONTINUE WITH A 14 POP/DRY FCST. LATE WEDNESDAY NIGHT AND THURSDAY LOOKS SOMEWHAT SIMILAR TO TODAY AS A STRONGER MID LVL IMPULSE TRACKS EWD THROUGH THE NRN GREAT LAKES...AGAIN FLATTENING THE UPPER RIDGE AND SENDING A COLD FRONT SEWD BACK INTO THE FA. WITH THIS CONTINUED WITH CHC POPS FOR SHOWERS/STORMS WEDNESDAY NIGHT INTO THURSDAY GIVEN SUBTLE TIMING DIFFERENCES IN GUIDANCE. LARGER SPREAD IN MODEL GUIDANCE AS EXPECTED BY DAYS 6-7 (FRIDAY/SATURDAY). THE 12Z OP GFS TRENDED MORE TOWARDS THE ECMWF IN THURSDAY'S NRN GREAT LAKES SHORTWAVE DIVING SEWD INTO THE NORTHEAST US. THIS SUPPORTS A FLATTENING OF THE UPPER RIDGE...SFC RIDGING INTO THE GREAT LAKES...AND THE AFOREMENTIONED FRONTAL BOUNDARY SINKING WELL SOUTH OF THE FA. IF THIS PANS OUT WE WOULD SEE A RETURN TO DRY/COOLER/LESS HUMID WX BY DAYS 6/7. HOWEVER...OPTED NOT TO PULL INHERITED LOW CHC POPS THURSDAY NIGHT AND FRIDAY GIVEN MODEL INCONSISTENCIES THIS FAR IN ADVANCE...AND FOR THE FACT THAT SEVERAL GFS ENSEMBLE MEMBERS STALL THE BOUNDARY FARTHER NORTH INVOF THE CWA. && .AVIATION... EXTREMELY UNSTABLE AIRMASS OVER NRN INDIANA THIS AFTN. A CDFNT MOVG THROUGH NW IL/SE WI SHOULD DROP ACROSS NRN INDIANA BY THIS EVENING. THIS FRONT IS EXPECTED TO TRIGGER SCT TSTMS...WHICH GIVEN THE INSTABILITY IN PLACE...COULD BE SVR WITH LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING WINDS...THUS MAINTAINED GOING TEMPO +TSRA GROUP AT BOTH TERMINALS LATE THIS AFTN. SOME LINGERING MID/HIGH CLOUDS EXPECTED TNGT AND SUNDAY. WINDS WILL VEER NE BEHIND THE FRONT OVERNIGHT... AND THEN LIKELY BACK NW AGAIN AT SBN SUNDAY AS LAKE BREEZE MOVES INLAND WITH LIGHT GRADIENT FLOW. LINGERING MOISTURE AND LIGHT WINDS MAY ALLOW PATCHY BR TO DVLP OVERNIGHT...
