AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE INDIANAPOLIS IN
323 PM EST SUN DEC 23 2012

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

&&

.SYNOPSIS...

ISSUED AT 415 AM EST SUN DEC 23 2012

HIGH PRESSURE ACROSS THE SOUTHEAST U.S. WILL BRING SLIGHTLY MILDER
AND DRY WEATHER TODAY AS IT CONTINUES MOVING ON TO THE EAST.
OTHERWISE AN ACTIVE WEEK WEATHER-WISE IS IN STORE THIS WEEK AS
SEVERAL SYSTEMS AFFECT OUR WEATHER.

THE FIRST ONE IS A WEAK AREA OF LOW PRESSURE WHICH MODELS MOVE EAST
ACROSS THE OHIO VALLEY MONDAY.  THE SECOND ONE IS A MUCH STRONGER
SYSTEM AS LOW PRESSURE TRACKS A DEVELOPING AREA OF LOW PRESSURE FROM
TEXAS TUESDAY ACROSS THE OHIO VALLEY WEDNESDAY TO THE MID ATLANTIC
COAST BY THURSDAY.  FINALLY TRACK AN AREA OF LOW PRESSURE ACROSS OUR
REGION SATURDAY.

TEMPERATURES WILL BE NEAR SEASONAL NORMS TODAY THROUGH CHRISTMAS AND
THEN BECOME COLDER THAN NORMAL AS MODELS DEVELOP A STRONG UPPER
TROUGH ACROSS OUR REGION.

&&

.NEAR TERM /TODAY/...

ISSUED AT 415 AM EST SUN DEC 23 2012

SATELLITE SHOWS ONLY HIGH THIN CLOUDS ACROSS OUR REGION AND MOSTLY
SUNNY AND SLIGHTLY WARMER WEATHER WILL BE THE RULE TODAY AS A
SOUTHWEST FLOW OCCURS ACROSS OUR REGION.

MOS NUMBERS HAVE TRENDED A LITTLE COOLER TODAY AND WILL GO A TAD
LOWER THAN THE PREVIOUS FORECAST. BUT WITH LOTS OF SUNSHINE AND WARM
ADVECTION TODAY WILL TREND TOWARDS THE HIGH SIDE OF MOS TEMPERATURES
TODAY.

&&

.SHORT TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...

ISSUED AT 415 AM EST SUN DEC 23 2012

MODELS MOVE A WEAK AREA OF LOW PRESSURE INTO THE OHIO VALLEY LATE
TONIGHT. THE COMBINATION OF WARM ADVECTION AND SOME UVV COULD
GENERATE SOME PRECIP LATE TONIGHT MAINLY SOUTH. BUT IN THE WORSE
CASE SCENARIO IT WOULD NOT BE MUCH MORE THAN TRACE AMOUNTS.  LOW
LEVEL THICKNESS AND BUFKIT INDICATE IT WOULD BE PRIMARILY LIQUID.
HOWEVER SURFACE TEMPERATURES WILL BE NEAR OR SLIGHTLY BELOW FREEZING
FROM THE I 70 CORRIDOR AND NORTHWARD...SO WILL MENTION A MIXTURE OF
LIGHT RAIN...FREEZING DRIZZLE AND SLEET WITH LIGHT RAIN BEING THE
RULE FARTHER SOUTH.  ON MONDAY PRECIP SHOULD BE MIXED FAR NORTH AND
MOSTLY LIQUID ELSEWHERE.  MODELS ARE A LITTLE MORE PROGRESSIVE WITH
THIS SYSTEM...SO WILL DOWNPLAY PRECIP CHANCES A LITTLE MONDAY
AFTERNOON AND IT MAY BE DONE IN THE WEST BY MONDAY AFTERNOON.

CHRISTMAS DAY STILL APPEARS DRY AS WE WILL BE BETWEEN SYSTEMS WITH
NEAR SEASONABLE TEMPERATURES.

MODELS ARE IN MUCH BETTER AGREEMENT ON THE MID WEEK SYSTEM.  A
STRONG AREA OF LOW PRESSURE OVER TEXAS WILL TRACK ACROSS THE OHIO
VALLEY WEDNESDAY AND TO THE MID ATLANTIC COAST.  EVEN THE GEM WHICH
HAD BEEN DRY ON PREVIOUS RUNS NOW GENERATES SIGNIFICANT PRECIP
ACROSS AT LEAST THE SOUTHERN HALF OF OUR REGION.  THE EURO...GFS AND
MOST GFS ENSEMBLES INDICATE THE POTENTIAL OF A WINTER STORM OVER
MOST OF OUR AREA LATE TUESDAY NIGHT AND WEDNESDAY.  THERE IS STILL A
MODERATE AMOUNT OF UNCERTAINTY ON SNOW AMOUNTS ACROSS OUR NORTHWEST.
ALSO MODELS INDICATE MIXED PRECIP IS POSSIBLE FAR SOUTH AND
SOUTHEAST TUESDAY NIGHT. BUT BY WEDNESDAY THIS SHOULD BE ALL SNOW.
GIVEN THAT IT IS STILL SEVERAL DAYS AWAY...WILL NOT ISSUE ANY
HEADLINES YET...BUT INSTEAD WILL COVER THIS EVEN WITH A SPECIAL
WEATHER STATEMENT AND PLAY UP MENTION OF SNOW ACCUMULATIONS IN
HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK. THERE COULD ALSO BE ENOUGH WINDS TO
PRODUCE BLOWING SNOW SOME AREAS WEDNESDAY.

AS FAR AS TEMPERATURES ARE CONCERNED...MOS NUMBERS SEEM REASONABLE
MOST PERIODS. WENT SLIGHTLY WARMER SOME AREAS TONIGHT WITH CLOUDS
AND WARM ADVECTION AND CUT TEMPERATURES SLIGHTLY SOME AREAS
WEDNESDAY GIVEN PRECIP AND LOW LEVEL COLD ADVECTION.

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...

ISSUED AT 215 PM EST SUN DEC 23 2012

ENSEMBLES INDICATE THE SYSTEM THAT WILL BE AFFECTING THE AREA DURING
THE SHORT TERM WILL BE PULLING FARTHER AWAY TO NEW ENGLAND BY
THURSDAY...LEAVING ONLY A SMALL CHANCE FOR LINGERING SHOW SHOWERS OR
FLURRIES. DRY WEATHER SHOULD COMMENCE THURSDAY NIGHT WITH A WEAK
RIDGE MOVING ACROSS THE REGION...HOWEVER THE NEXT UPPER TROUGH WILL
BE DIGGING ACROSS THE PLAINS AT THE BEGINNING OF THE PERIOD AND
MOVING ACROSS CENTRAL INDIANA FRIDAY NIGHT. ENSEMBLES HAVE BEEN
KEYING ON THIS FEATURE THE LAST FEW DAYS AND THERE APPEARS TO BE
ENOUGH MOISTURE TO BUMP UP POPS TO LIKELY CATEGORY FOR SNOW FRIDAY
NIGHT. A SECONDARY TROUGH WILL DEVELOP TO THE NW AND SHIFT ACROSS
OVER THE WEEKEND...PRODUCING ADDITIONAL CHANCES FOR SNOW.

MAJORITY OF ENSEMBLES KEEP THICKNESSES LOW ENOUGH FOR ALL PRECIP
TO FALL AS SNOW DURING THIS PERIOD...BUT THERE ARE A FEW MEMBERS
THAT SUGGEST THE AIR MASS MAY BECOME BRIEFLY WARM ENOUGH TO
SUPPORT SOME RAIN (AT TIMES) AS WELL. FOR NOW...WILL KEEP
PRECIPITATION TYPE ALL SNOW. POTENTIAL FOR SOME ACCUMULATIONS LATE
NEXT WEEK IF PRECIPITATION REMAINS ALL SNOW.

&&

.AVIATION /DISCUSSION FOR THE 232100Z TAF UPDATE/...

ISSUED AT 323 PM EST SUN DEC 23 2012

KIND TAF LOOKS FINE. ADJUSTED WIND A BIT AND LOWERED CEILING TO LOW
END VFR AT 07Z BASED ON LATEST GUIDANCE.

PREVIOUS DISCUSSION FOLLOWS...
A WEAK FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL DROP SOUTH OVER CENTRAL INDIANA OVER
THE NEXT 4 HOURS. THIS WILL ONLY CAUSE A SHIFT IN DIRECTION OF THE
LIGHT WINDS...FROM W/NW TO NE BY 21Z FOR MOST SITES.
OTHERWISE...CIRRUS SHIELD WILL PREVAIL ACROSS THE AREA UNTIL LATE
TONIGHT. THEN CLOUDS WILL BEGIN TO INCREASE WITH WAA AHEAD OF OUR
NEXT SYSTEM AFTER MIDNIGHT. MODELS SEEM LESS ROBUST WITH THIS WEAK
SYSTEM...AND MOISTURE IS DEFINITELY IN QUESTION. GUIDANCE BRINGS
MOST SITES DOWN TO MFVR...AND ALSO A SMALL WINDOW OF IFR. LEFT
PRECIP MENTION AS -RA FOR BMG AND VCSH FOR IND MONDAY MORNING...AND
OTHER SITES OTHERS DRY SINCE CONFIDENCE IS NOT HIGH AND IF CENTRAL
INDIANA DOES SEE SOME PRECIP...COVERAGE WILL NOT BE WIDESPREAD. WILL
CONTINUE WITH MFVR FOR EARLY MONDAY AND THROUGH THE DAY.

511 AM EST SUN DEC 23 2012

THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR CENTRAL INDIANA.

.DAY ONE...TODAY AND TONIGHT.

OUTLOOK: THERE IS A SLIGHT CHANCE OF LIGHT RAIN MIXED WITH
FREEZING DRIZZLE OR SLEET LATE TONIGHT.

HAZARDS: FREEZING DRIZZLE...SLEET.

TIMING: LATE TONIGHT.

DISCUSSION: HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE SOUTHEAST U.S. WILL BRING DRY
AND SLIGHTLY WARMER WEATHER TODAY. A WEAK AREA OF LOW PRESSURE
WILL TRACK INTO THE OHIO VALLEY LATE TONIGHT AND VERY LIGHT MIXED
PRECIPITATION IS POSSIBLE BY MONDAY MORNING.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY.

OUTLOOK: THERE IS A CHANCE OF LIGHT RAIN MIXED WITH FREEZING
DRIZZLE OR SLEET MONDAY MORNING. THEN SNOW WITH MODERATE ACCUMULATIONS
MAY OCCUR AROUND WEDNESDAY. AREAS OF BLOWING SNOW ARE EXPECTED IN SOME
AREAS. ANOTHER SYSTEM WILL BRING US A CHANCE OF MORE SNOW BY LATE
FRIDAY OR SATURDAY.

DISCUSSION: LOW PRESSURE OVER THE OHIO VALLEY MONDAY MORNING WILL
MOVE ON TO THE EAST AND PRECIPITATION SHOULD END MOST AREAS BY
MONDAY EVENING. MODELS TRACK A STRONG AREA OF LOW PRESSURE ACROSS
THE OHIO VALLEY AROUND WEDNESDAY WITH PRECIPITATION FROM THIS BEING
MOSTLY SNOW. FINALLY ANOTHER SYSTEM WILL BRING US A CHANCE OF MORE
SNOW LATE THIS WEEK.
