.SHORT TERM.../TONIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT/

COLD FRONT WAS LOCATED FROM ROUGHLY RENSSELAER TO WARSAW TO MONROE
MI. A FEW SHOWERS/STORMS WERE ATTEMPTING TO FORM ON THE FRONT.
HOWEVER...GREATER COVERAGE AND INTENSITY SHOWERS/STORMS WERE NOTED
ALONG AND SOUTH OF US 24 ALONG SEMI STATIONARY TROUGH THAT HAS BEEN
A FOCUS FOR DEVELOPMENT MUCH OF THE DAY. IN ADDITION...A WAVE WAS
MOVING ACROSS CENTRAL INDIANA GIVING EXTRA LIFT TO THE FEATURE.
GRIDS WERE UPDATED EARLIER TO REFLECT THESE TRENDS AND STILL LOOK
REASONABLE SO WILL RUN WITH PRE 1ST PERIOD WITH SOME TIMING OF
PRECIP HOPEFULLY OUT OF THE AREA BY 00Z. SOME CONCERNS THAT FAR SE
COUNTIES COULD SEE SOME LINGERING SHOWERS INTO THE 00-03Z TIME FRAME
BUT WILL LEAVE DRY FOR NOW AND LET EVE SHIFT MONITOR TRENDS.

FRONT AND DEEPER MSTR STILL LOOKS TO SETTLE FAR ENOUGH SOUTH OF THE
FORECAST AREA TO ALLOW FOR CLEARING ACROSS MOST LOCATIONS SAVE
SOUTHERN THIRD WHERE PARTLY CLOUDY SKIES MAY STICK AROUND GIVEN
PROXIMITY OF FRONT AND ADDITIONAL WAVES MOVING ALONG IT TO THROW AT
LEAST SOME CLOUD COVER NORTHWARD. MUCH DRIER AIR WILL FILTER IN WITH
DEWPTS DROPPING INTO THE 40S AND PARTLY TO MOSTLY SUNNY SKIES ON
THURSDAY ALLOWING FOR SEASONABLE TEMPS IN THE UPPER 60S TO AROUND
70.
