AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE INDIANAPOLIS IN
1155 AM EST WED FEB 27 2013

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

&&

.SYNOPSIS...
ISSUED AT 401 AM EST WED FEB 27 2013

AN UPPER LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM HANGING AROUND THE GREAT
LAKES WILL KEEP CHANCES FOR SNOW IN THE FORECAST THROUGH FRIDAY
ALONG WITH BELOW NORMAL TEMPERATURES. COULD SEE ANOTHER SYSTEM
ARRIVE ON MONDAY NIGHT BRINGING CHANCES FOR SNOW MONDAY NIGHT
THROUGH TUESDAY. COULD APPROACH NEAR NORMAL TEMPERATURES BY THE END
OF THE PERIOD.

&&

.NEAR TERM /REST OF TODAY/...

ISSUED AT 956 AM EST WED FEB 27 2013

INITIAL BAND OF SNOW IS WEAKENING AS IT MOVES NORTHEAST ACROSS THE
FORECAST AREA...BUT IS STILL CAPABLE OF BRIEF PERIODS OF MODERATE
SNOW ACROSS THE SOUTHERN FORECAST AREA. AIR AND GROUND
TEMPERATURES ARE KEEPING ACCUMULATIONS LOW AS CAN BE SEEN ON AREA
WEBCAMS.

ACROSS THE NORTH...LITTLE IF ANY PRECIPITATION IS OCCURRING AT THE
MOMENT. GIVEN THE ABOVE HAVE LOWERED POPS THIS MORNING OUTSIDE
THE CURRENT SNOW BAND. HAVE ALSO LOWERED AMOUNTS ACROSS THE NORTH
THIS MORNING SINCE LITTLE IF ANY SNOW HAS FALLEN SO FAR TODAY.

STILL EXPECT SNOW SHOWERS TO DEVELOP AND INCREASE IN COVERAGE
TODAY DUE TO UPPER LOW MOVING ACROSS AND INCREASING INSTABILITY.
THUS KEPT THE CATEGORICAL POPS THIS AFTERNOON MOST AREAS.

TEMPERATURES WILL KEEP OVERALL ACCUMULATIONS DOWN TODAY...BUT
AREAS THAT GET UNDER A HEAVIER SNOW SHOWER COULD SEE A QUICK HALF
INCH TO AN INCH. WENT WITH A GENERAL AROUND AN INCH FOR
ACCUMULATIONS IN THE PRODUCTS TODAY SINCE THE CONVECTIVE NATURE OF
THE SNOW WILL MAKE IT TOUGH TO PIN DOWN WHICH AREAS WILL SEE THE
MOST SNOW.

TEMPERATURES LOOK OK SO MADE NO CHANGES.

&&

.SHORT TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT/...

ISSUED AT 401 AM EST WED FEB 27 2013

FORECAST FOCUS IS ON POPS. MODELS ARE IN GOOD AGREEMENT AND WILL USE
A BLEND. TONIGHT THE UPPER LOW AND SURFACE LOW LIFT OFF TO THE
NORTHEAST. BEST FORCING DEPARTS WITH THEM...BUT THINK THEY WILL
STILL BE CLOSE ENOUGH TO KEEP LIKELY SNOW ACROSS MUCH OF THE AREA
WITH LESSER CHANCES TO THE SOUTHWEST. AS FAR AS AMOUNTS GO THOUGH
ONLY EXPECT TO SEE A FEW TENTHS OF AN INCH. ON THURSDAY SEE LESS
POTENTIAL BUT WITH WEAK WAVE MOVING THROUGH THE UPPER FLOW COULD SEE
MAINTAINING HIGHER CHANCE POPS IN THE EAST WITH LESSER CHANCES WEST.
CHANCES CONTINUE TO DECREASE BUT WITH CYCLONIC UPPER FLOW COULD
REALLY SEE A FEW SNOW SHOWERS STICK AROUND THROUGH FRIDAY BEFORE
FINALLY SHUTTING DOWN FRIDAY NIGHT AS HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN. AGAIN
FORCING AND MOISTURE DO NOT LOOK SUFFICIENT WITH ANY OF THESE UPPER
WAVES TO PRODUCE MUCH MORE THAN A TENTH OR COUPLE TENTHS OF AN INCH
IN ANY PERIOD.

FOR HIGH TEMPERATURES GENERALLY WENT COOLER THAN GUIDANCE WITH
COMPLETE CLOUD COVER AND COLD ADVECTION EXPECTED AND CLIMATOLOGY
SEEMING TO BIAS TEMPERATURES UP. FOR LOWS THOUGHT CONSENSUS
ADEQUATELY CAPTURED CLOUDY CONDITIONS.

&&

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...

ISSUED AT 318 AM EST WED FEB 27 2013

COLD CYCLONIC FLOW WILL PERSIST THROUGH THE WEEKEND AS THE BROAD
UPPER TROUGH OVER THE EASTERN U S SLOWLY PULLS AWAY FROM THE
REGION. UPPER WAVE WILL TRACK THROUGH THE TENNESSEE VALLEY...
KEEPING CLOUDS AND POSSIBLY SOME LINGERING FLURRIES OVER THE
FORECAST AREA. HOWEVER DEEPER MOISTURE AND FORCING ASSOCIATED
WITH THE FEATURE SHOULD REMAIN SOUTH OF THE REGION. HIGH PRESSURE
WILL BUILD INTO THE REGION FOR SUNDAY AND MONDAY WITH COOL DRY
WEATHER AND FINALLY SOME SUNSHINE.

MODELS HAVE COME INTO REASONABLE AGREEMENT WITH RESPECT TO NEXT
STORM TO IMPACT THE OHIO VALLEY BEGINNING LATE MONDAY INTO
TUESDAY. A STRONG UPPER WAVE WILL MOVE OUT OF THE NORTHERN ROCKIES
ON MONDAY...BECOMING ABSORBED BY THE LINGERING UPPER TROUGH OVER
NEW ENGLAND AND AMPLIFYING THE TROUGH BACK WEST INTO THE GREAT
LAKES ON TUESDAY. 00Z RUNS OF BOTH THE ECMWF AND OP GFS FAVOR A
SURFACE WAVE SPINNING UP AND TRACKING ACROSS THE SOUTHERN PLAINS
AND INTO THE SOUTHEAST STATES BY TUESDAY EVENING. THIS WILL KEEP
THE REGION ON THE COLD SIDE OF THE SYSTEM...WITH LOW LEVEL
THERMALS AND SURFACE TEMPS SUPPORTING MAIN PRECIP TYPE AS SNOW
WITH POTENTIAL FOR RAIN TO MIX IN OVER SOUTHERN PORTIONS OF THE
FORECAST AREA TUESDAY. WILL CARRY CHANCE POPS MONDAY NIGHT AND
TUESDAY WITH PRECIP TAPERING OFF TUESDAY NIGHT. TEMPS WILL REMAIN
BELOW NORMAL ACROSS CENTRAL INDIANA TO KICK OFF MARCH WITH HIGHS
OVER THE WEEKEND MAINLY IN THE 30S...WARMING INTO THE UPPER 30S
AND LOWER 40S FOR MONDAY AND TUESDAY.

&&

.AVIATION /DISCUSSION FOR 271800Z TAF ISSUANCE/...

ISSUED AT 1155 AM EST WED FEB 27 2013

POOR FLYING CONDITIONS EXPECTED DURING MOST OF THE TAF PERIOD AS AN
UPPER LOW DRIFTS EAST FROM THE OHIO VALLEY THIS AFTERNOON TO THE
APPALACHIANS BY TOMORROW AFTERNOON. PLENTY OF MOISTURE AND SOME
INSTABILITY WILL RESULT IN SNOW SHOWERS MAINLY THROUGH TONIGHT ALONG
WITH MOSTLY IFR OR WORSE CEILINGS. SOUTHWEST WINDS AROUND 15 KNOTS
OR MORE WILL GUST TO 20 KNOTS OR MORE AND BECOME NORTHWEST TOWARD
12Z THURSDAY AS A SURFACE TROUGH PASSES THROUGH ON THE BACK SIDE OF
THE UPPER LOW.
