AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE INDIANAPOLIS IN
1025 AM EDT THU APR 11 2013

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

&&

.SYNOPSIS...
ISSUED AT 355 AM EDT THU APR 11 2013

SCATTERED SHOWERS AND ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS/MAINLY OVER EASTERN
COUNTIES/ WILL LINGER THROUGH TODAY AS THE UPPER LEVEL LOW
TRAVERSES THE FORECAST AREA. TONIGHT...ANTICIPATE ONLY RAIN
SHOWERS WITH ALL INSTABILITY AND LIFT OUT OF THE AREA. AFTER SLIGHT
CHANCES FOR WRAPAROUND RAIN ACROSS THE NORTH TOMORROW...DRY AND
COOLER WEATHER WILL SETTLE ACROSS CENTRAL INDIANA THROUGH THE
BEGINNING OF THE WEEKEND. SUNDAY...TEMPS WILL START WARMING UP
AGAIN...AND THEN SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL ENTER CENTRAL
INDIANA ONCE AGAIN ON MONDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THIS AFTERNOON/...

ISSUED AT 927 AM EDT THU APR 11 2013

RECENT RADAR TRENDS INDICATE THAT RAIN ACROSS MUCH OF THE FORECAST
AREA HAS ENDED FOR THE TIME BEING. THUS HAVE TRENDED POPS DOWNWARD
FOR THE NEXT FEW HOURS. HOWEVER...AS THE SURFACE ANALYSIS SHOWS
LOW PRESSURE STILL WEST OF INDIANA...MOIST SOUTHERLY FLOW IS
EXPECTED TO CONTINUE ACROSS THE AREA THIS AFTERNOON. NAM AND HRRR
CONTINUE TO SUGGEST ANOTHER SURGE OF PRECIPITATION TO MOVE INTO
CENTRAL INDIANA...PARTICULARLY ACROSS THE EASTERN HALF OF THE
STATE THIS AFTERNOON. THUS ALONG WITH OUR TREND DOWNWARD IN POPS
FOR THE NEXT FEW HOURS...WILL RAMP THINGS BACK UP FOR THE
AFTERNOON AS THIS SURGE ARRIVES.

&&

.SHORT TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/...

ISSUED AT 355 AM EDT THU APR 11 2013

REMOVED POPS ACROSS ALL OF FORECAST AREA FOR TONIGHT AS A DRY SLOT
ENTERS THE AREA AND ISENTROPIC LIFT ENDS. HOWEVER...WRAPAROUND
MOISTURE ON THE BACKSIDE OF THIS SYSTEM WARRANTED MENTION OF
SLIGHT CHANCE POPS OVER THE NORTHERN HALF OF CENTRAL INDIANA ONCE
AGAIN TOMORROW MORNING. BEYOND THAT...RIDGING WILL RESULT IN A DRY
AND COOLER PATTERN THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE SHORT TERM PERIOD.
MODELS HAVE A GOOD HANDLE ON THE COLDER AIR...SO WENT WITH CONSALL
FOR TEMPS THROUGH DURATION OF SHORT TERM PERIOD. THIS PUTS HIGHS
ONLY IN THE 40S AND 50S AS WINDS BECOME MORE WESTERLY...AND LOWS
DIPPING INTO THE 30S ON FRIDAY AND SATURDAY NIGHTS. TONIGHT...
LEANED ON THE WARMER SIDE OF GUIDANCE DUE TO LINGERING CLOUD COVER
AND CONTINUED SOUTHWEST FLOW.

&&

.LONG TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...

ISSUED AT 355 AM EDT THU APR 11 2013

SUNDAY WILL BE DRY AND WARMER WITH HIGH PRESSURE JUST TO OUR EAST
AND AN UPPER RIDGE MOVING EAST ACROSS OUR REGION.  THE GFS INDICATED
A FEW LIGHT SHOWERS MAY BRUSH OUR FAR NORTH SUNDAY...BUT THIS MODEL
SEEMS TO BE AN OUTLIER.

OVER THE REST OF THE EXTENDED MODELS SLOWLY BRING A COLD FRONT
SOUTHEAST INTO OUR REGION BY TUESDAY AND THEN STALL IT IT NEARBY AND
START TO LIFT IT BACK TO THE NORTH BY DAY 7 AS LOW PRESSURE MOVES
INTO THE MISSISSIPPI VALLEY.  THERE ARE SOME DIFFERENCES ON HOW FAR
SOUTH THE FRONT REACHES.  THIS SCENARIO SEEMS TO MATCH UP OK WITH
ALL BLEND POPS WHICH GIVES US MOSTLY SLIGHT CHANCE POPS MONDAY AND
CHANCES POPS DAY 6 AND DAY 7.

RAISED HIGH TEMPERATURES A LITTLE ABOVE ALL BLEND NUMBERS SUNDAY AND
MONDAY AS THERE WILL BE A SOUTHERLY FLOW AHEAD OF THE COLD FRONT AND
MODELS PREVIOUSLY HAVE UNDERESTIMATED HOW QUICKLY TEMPERATURES CAN
WARM THIS TIME OF YEAR IN THIS TYPE OF SITUATION.  OTHERWISE...ALL
BLEND TEMPERATURES SEEM REASONABLE.

&&

.AVIATION /DISCUSSION FOR THE 111500Z KIND TAF UPDATE/...
ISSUED AT 1025 AM EDT THU APR 11 2013

SHOWERS BEGINNING TO DEVELOP OVER THE WESTERN SECTIONS OF THE STATE AS
FRONTAL SYSTEM APPROACHES. SHOULD BEGIN TO SEE CEILINGS FALL INTO
THE MVFR CATEGORY OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF HOURS...ALONG WITH SOME
MVFR VISIBILITY RESTRICTIONS IN SHOWERS. STEADIER RAIN STILL LOOKS
TO ARRIVE LATER THIS AFTERNOON. STILL SOME ELEVATED INSTABILITY
AROUND...SO A LOW THREAT FOR LIGHTNING STRIKES WILL LINGER INTO THE
EARLY AFTERNOON HOURS. PREVIOUS DISCUSSION FOLLOWS.

MOSTLY MVFR CONDITIONS THROUGH THE PERIOD WITH SOME IMPROVEMENT
TOWARDS THE END.  AN AREA OF LOW PRESSURE OVER EASTERN ILLINOIS WILL
TRACK EAST ACROSS INDIANA TODAY.

NUMEROUS SHOWERS AND A FEW THUNDERSTORMS WERE OVER THE EASTERN HALF
OF INDIANA EARLY THIS MORNING. BUT THESE SHOULD MOVE ON TO THE EAST
LEAVING MOST AREAS DRY THROUGH MID MORNING. RAPID REFRESH MODEL
INDICATES ANOTHER OF NUMEROUS SHOWERS WILL SPREAD OVER MOST AREAS BY
THIS AFTERNOON. A FEW THUNDERSTORMS ARE POSSIBLE...BUT CHANCES ARE
LOW...SO WILL LEAVE MENTION OUT OF FORECAST.

THESE SHOWERS WILL MOVE ON TO THE EAST BY THIS EVENING. WEATHER
DEPICTION AND MODEL SOUNDINGS INDICATE MOSTLY MVFR CEILINGS WILL BE
THE RULE OVERNIGHT...WITH SOME IMPROVEMENT LATE TONIGHT AND
ESPECIALLY OVER WESTERN SECTIONS.

WINDS WILL BECOME SOUTH 8 TO 12 KNOTS BY LATE MORNING AND WEST
TONIGHT.
