The archived warnings, watches and discussions in force at that minute are drawn over the scan, this one among them.

Did it verify

Not verified. The Iowa Environmental Mesonet's Cow found no qualifying storm report inside this flash flood warning while it was in force. That is not proof nothing happened: reports are thin where few people live.

Cow counts a report within 15 km of the polygon while the warning was in force: a tornado for a tornado warning; hail of 1 inch or more, a gust of 58 mph or more or wind damage for a severe thunderstorm warning; a flash flood report for a flash flood warning.

The nearest sounding before it

Cncnati-Daytn, OH (KILN), launched 00:00Z, 8.0 hours before the alert went out and 211 km from the middle of its area. This is the routine balloon launch nearest before it, the air the forecaster had in hand, not a measurement taken for the alert.

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE INDIANAPOLIS IN
1256 AM EDT MON JUN 10 2013

.UPDATE...
THE AVIATION SECTION HAS BEEN UPDATED BELOW.

&&

.SYNOPSIS...
ISSUED AT 103 PM EDT SUN JUN 9 2013

A COUPLE OF ACTIVE WEATHER DAYS ARE AHEAD AS AN AREA OF LOW
PRESSURE OVER IOWA PUSHES TOWARD AND THEN ACROSS INDIANA TONIGHT
AND MONDAY. SHOWERS AND PERHAPS A FEW THUNDERSTORMS WILL ACCOMPANY
THE LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM TONIGHT AND AGAIN ON MONDAY.

THE LOW THE LOW WILL DEPART ON MONDAY NIGHT AS A RIDGE OF HIGH
PRESSURE ONCE AGAIN BUILDS ACROSS THE OHIO VALLEY FROM THE WEST.
THIS WILL BRING A RETURN TO DRY WEATHER FOR THE MIDDLE PART OF THE
WEEK. BY WEDNESDAY...MUCH WARMER AIR WILL ARRIVE IN THE AREA ON
SOUTHWEST WINDS AHEAD OF AN APPROACHING AREA OF LOW PRESSURE. THIS
WILL SEND HIGH TEMPERATURES FOR WEDNESDAY INTO THE UPPER 80S. MORE
SHOWERS AND STORMS WILL BE POSSIBLE ON WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY AS
THAT LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM PASSES THROUGH THE AREA.

THE REMAINDER OF THE EXTENDED PERIOD WILL BE DRY AS HIGH PRESSURE
BUILDS BACK INTO CENTRAL INDIANA.

&&

.NEAR TERM /REST OF TONIGHT/...

ISSUED AT 938 PM EDT SUN JUN 9 2013

EVENING UPDATE WAS FOCUSED ON POPS FOR OVERNIGHT. BASED ON RADAR
TRENDS INCREASED POPS ACROSS THE CWA TO 100 PERCENT AND TAPERED
BACK MENTION OF THUNDER TO CHANCES EARLY...THEN ISOLATED AFTER
MIDNIGHT. MADE SOME MINOR MODIFICATIONS TO OTHER WEATHER ELEMENTS
TO ACCOUNT FOR LATEST TRENDS. PREVIOUS FORECAST DISCUSSION
FOLLOWS...

PRECIPITATION LOOKS LIKE A GOOD BET ACROSS CENTRAL INDIANA
TONIGHT. THE FIRST SHOT LOOKS TO ARRIVE FROM THE SOUTH AS THE
PRECIP OVER KENTUCKY ADVECTS INTO CENTRAL INDIANA. THE GFS 305K
ISENTROPIC SURFACE SHOWS GOOD LIFT ASSOCIATED WITH THIS FEATURE
ADVECTING NORTHEAST ACROSS THE EASTERN PARTS OF OUR FORECAST AREA
LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND EARLY THIS EVENING. THE SECOND SHOT AT
PRECIPITATION COMES AFTER 00Z AS THE PRECIP ASSOCIATED WITH THE
TROUGH OF LOW PRESSURE ARRIVES. GOOD LOWER LEVEL Q VECTOR
CONVERGENCE PUSHES THROUGH THE AREA WITH THE TROUGH OF LOW
PRESSURE AS THE HRRR SUGGESTS AN AREA OF SHRA WITH TSRA PUSHING
THROUGH THE STATE THIS EVENING. FURTHERMORE...FORECAST SOUNDINGS
INDICATE GOOD SATURATION...PARTICULARLY DURING BY 06Z TIME FRAME.

THUS WILL TREND POPS HIGHER THAN MAVMOS...PARTICULARLY EARLY ON IN
THE EAST AS THE TSRA AND SHRA ARE EXPECTED TO MOVE IN AND ACROSS
THE AREA AND THEN AGAIN ACROSS THE WEST AND CENTRAL AREA DURING
THE MIDDLE TO LATER PARTS OF THE FORECAST PERIOD. GIVEN THE CLOUDS
AND RAIN WILL TREND LOWS AT OR ABOVE MAVMOS.

&&

.SHORT TERM /MONDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...

ISSUED AT 103 PM EDT SUN JUN 9 2013

MAIN FORECAST CHALLENGE FOR THIS PERIOD WILL BE POPS N MONDAY. GFS
AND NAM DEPICT THE LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM OVER IOWA PUSHING THROUGH
AND EXITING CENTRAL INDIANA ON MONDAY AFTERNOON. BROAD CYCLONIC
LOWER LEVEL FLOW WILL BE IN PLACE. FORECAST SOUNDINGS SHOWS STEEP
LAPSE RATES BY 18Z MONDAY WITH GOOD MOISTURE STILL AVAILABLE. CAPE
REMAINS IN EXCESS OF 1000 J/KG AND CONVECTIVE TEMPS ARE ONLY IN
THE LOWER 70S. THUS GIVEN THE FLOW...THE FORCING AND DAYTIME
HEATING SOME SCT SHRA AND ISOLATED TSRA WILL BE POSSIBLE. WILL
STICK CLOSE TO THE TO THE MAVMOS POPS HERE GIVEN THE HIT OR MISS
CHANCES OF CONVECTIVE PRECIP IN THIS SET UP. WITH LITTLE CHANGE IN
THE AIR MASS WILL USE A BLEND ON HIGHS AS GOOD CLOUD COVER COULD
BE PRESENT WITH THE PASSING LOW.

THE LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM DEPARTS ON MONDAY AND AS GOOD RIDGING
BUILDS ALOFT ON MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY. TIME HEIGHTS AND
FORECAST SOUNDINGS DRY OUT THE COLUMN CONSIDERABLE AS THE
CONVECTIVE TEMPS BECOME UNREACHABLE. AGAIN THERE IS VERY LITTLE
CHANGE IN THE AIR MASS FOR THIS SYSTEM AND AS THE RIDGE QUICKLY
MOVES EAST OF INDIANA BY LATE TUESDAY...STRONG WARM AIR ADVECTION
ONCE AGAIN TAKES SHAPE ACROSS CENTRAL INDIANA. THE GFS FORECAST
SOUNDINGS HINT EVEN WITH THE WARM AND HUMID AIR MASS IN PLACE
700MB TEMPS WILL BE NEAR 12C...WHICH IS USUALLY A PRETTY DARN GOOD
CAP. THUS WILL KEEP A DRY FORECAST FROM MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH
WEDNESDAY...WITH SLOWLY MODERATING TEMPERATURES WARMER EACH DAY.
WILL TREND TOWARD THE WARMER SIDE OF GUIDANCE DURING THE MONDAY
NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY TIME PERIOD.

&&

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY/...
ISSUED AT 250 PM EDT SUN JUN 9 2013

MAIN FOCUS OF THE EXTENDED WILL BE STORM CHANCES WEDNESDAY NIGHT...
EARLY THURSDAY AND AGAIN OVER THE WEEKEND. MODELS REMAIN IN GOOD
AGREEMENT IN MAINTAINING A NORTHWEST FLOW ALOFT ACROSS THE
NORTHERN U.S. FROM THE PLAINS EASTWARD.   A STRONG UPPER RIDGE
WILL BE OVER TEXAS AND OKLAHOMA WHILE AN UPPER UPPER TROUGH MOVES
FROM THE GREAT LAKES INTO NEW ENGLAND AROUND THURSDAY FOLLOWED BY
A WEAKER SYSTEM LATE SATURDAY NIGHT AND SUNDAY.

MODELS HAVE TRENDED A LITTLE WETTER AND FARTHER SOUTH WITH A
POSSIBLE MCS MOVING ACROSS OUR REGION WEDNESDAY NIGHT. SCATTERED
THUNDERSTORMS MAY LINGER INTO THURSDAY. HOWEVER WITH THE MODELS
BEING VERY QUICK TO DRY US OUT...WILL DROP MENTION OF THUNDERSTORMS
FOR THURSDAY AFTERNOON.

THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH EARLY SATURDAY WILL BE DRY AS A WEAK RIDGE
OF HIGH PRESSURE MOVES EAST ACROSS OUR REGION.  MODELS ARE A LITTLE
MORE PROGRESSIVE WITH THE WEEKEND.  BUT THEY MAY BE A BIT TOO FAST.
FOR NOW LEAN TOWARDS THE SLOWER HPC SOLUTION.

WENT WITH A MOS BLEND MOST PERIODS...EXCEPT A TAD WARMER FOR HIGHS
FRIDAY AND SATURDAY AS THERE WILL BE LOTS OF SUN AND INCREASING
WARM ADVECTION.

&&

.AVIATION /DISCUSSION FOR 100600Z TAF ISSUANCE/...
ISSUED AT 1256 AM EDT MON JUN 10 2013

SCATTERED SHOWERS WITH POTENTIAL FOR MVFR WILL GIVE WAY TO MVFR
CONDITIONS LATER DURING THE NIGHT. THESE SHOULD PERSIST UNTIL MONDAY
AFTERNOON...WHEN VFR RETURNS..

BULK OF CONVECTION SHOULD BE OUT OF THE TAF SITES BY VALID TIME
LEAVING BEHIND SCATTERED SHOWERS. THESE SHOULD CONTINUE THROUGH THE
MORNING HOURS ON MONDAY AS AN UPPER LOW MOVES INTO THE AREA.

OUTSIDE OF SHOWERS PREDOMINANT MVFR CEILINGS AND PERHAPS
VISIBILITIES WILL MOVE IN OVERNIGHT AND PERSIST THROUGH MONDAY
MORNING AS THE UPPER LOW MOVES IN. CEILINGS SHOULD LIFT TO VFR BY
17Z OR SO. ADDITIONAL SCATTERED SHOWERS MAY DEVELOP MONDAY AFTERNOON
BUT CONFIDENCE IS TOO LOW TO MENTION THIS FAR OUT.

WINDS WILL GENERALLY REMAIN NEAR OR BELOW 10KT FOR THE PERIOD.
