AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE INDIANAPOLIS IN
248 PM EDT WED APR 10 2013

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

&&

.SYNOPSIS...
ISSUED AT 341 AM EDT WED APR 10 2013

A STRONG LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL PUSH THROUGH CENTRAL INDIANA
TONIGHT AND TOMORROW...TRIGGERING STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS
ALONG AND AHEAD OF AN ASSOCIATED COLD FRONT. CONVECTIVE ACTIVITY
WILL TAPER OFF BY TOMORROW EVENING WITH ONLY SOME LINGERING
SHOWERS INTO FRIDAY MORNING. DRY AND COOL WEATHER WILL BE THE NORM
FOR FRIDAY AND SATURDAY IN THE WAKE OF AFOREMENTIONED COLD FRONT.
HOWEVER...ANOTHER CHANCE FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL COME
LATE IN THE WEEKEND AS ANOTHER SYSTEM MOVES THROUGH THE GREAT
LAKES REGION.

&&

.NEAR TERM /REST OF TODAY/...

ISSUED AT 1011 AM EDT WED APR 10 2013

AT 10 AM RADAR MOSAIC SHOWED ALMOST NO ECHOES ACROSS THE FORECAST
AREA. WARM/STATIONARY FRONT IS JUST NORTH OF THE FORECAST AREA
BETWEEN RENSSELAER AND LAFAYETTE. TEMPERATURES WERE IN THE LOW 70S
WITH DEW POINTS IN THE LOW 60S AND WINDS OUT OF THE SOUTHWEST AROUND
25 MPH. BASED ON TRENDS AND HRRR/RAP OUTPUT DECREASED POPS FOR THE
NEXT COUPLE OF HOURS. THEN INCREASED POPS SOME FOR THE AFTERNOON
WITH RAPID UPDATE MODELS SHOWING CONVECTIVE DEVELOPMENT ACROSS THE
AREA BY LATE THIS AFTERNOON. ALTHOUGH LARGER SCALE FRONTAL FORCING
WILL STILL BE ABSENT...WATER VAPOR SATELLITE AND SURFACE ANALYSIS
INDICATE A WEAK WAVE CURRENTLY OVER EASTERN MISSOURI/WESTERN
ILLINOIS THAT SHOULD MOVE ALONG THE FRONT AND PROVIDE THE NECESSARY
FORCING THIS AFTERNOON/EVENING TO TAP INTO WHAT SHOULD BE AMPLE
INSTABILITY WITH OVER 60 DEW POINTS AND HIGH TEMPERATURES REACHING
INTO THE UPPER 70S/LOW 80S ON STRONG SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW. ALSO SEEING
SOME CLEARING ON SATELLITE TO THE SOUTHWEST...SO THINK THOSE 80S
COULD STILL BE ATTAINABLE DESPITE CURRENT CLOUD COVER.

GIVEN THE INSTABILITY AND FORCING MENTIONED ABOVE...DO SEE SOME
POTENTIAL FOR SEVERE THIS AFTERNOON INTO EVENING AND HAVE ADDED THIS
TO THE HWO. WHILE INSTABILITY WILL BE LOWER TONIGHT STILL SEE
STRONGER FORCING AND DYNAMICS PRESENT WITH FRONTAL PASSAGE LATE
TONIGHT/EARLY THURSDAY SO SEVERE WILL BE IN PLAY THEN AS WELL.

&&

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

ISSUED AT 341 AM EDT WED APR 10 2013

THE MAIN FOCUS OF THE SHORT TERM PERIOD IS SEVERE WEATHER
POTENTIAL FOR TONIGHT AND TOMORROW.

SPC CONTINUES TO KEEP ALL OF CENTRAL INDIANA UNDER A SLIGHT RISK
FOR SEVERE WEATHER THROUGH DAY 1. CURRENT THINKING IS THAT COLD
FRONT WILL START IMPACTING THE WESTERN PORTIONS OF CENTRAL INDIANA
AFTER THU 06Z TONIGHT AND KEEP PROPAGATING EAST THROUGH EARLY
TOMORROW MORNING. THIS WOULD PUT THE BULK OF THUNDERSTORMS THROUGH
THE INDY METRO SOMEWHERE IN THE THU 09-15Z TIME FRAME. FORECAST
SOUNDINGS ARE HINTING AT SBCAPES OF 1000 TO 1500 J/KG WITH AMPLE
MOISTURE AND HEAT IN PLACE. A STRONG LOW LEVEL JET OVER 60 KTS
SHOULD ACCELERATE SEVERE THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT AFTER THU 06.

AN UPPER LEVEL JET WILL ACCOMPANY THE UPPER LEVEL LOW TOMORROW
AFTERNOON...BUT EXPECTING ENVIRONMENT TO BE WORKED OVER BY THAT
POINT. NONETHELESS...WILL KEEP MENTION OF ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS
OVER THE FORECAST AREA UNTIL THAT UPPER LOW HAS EXITED THE REGION.

TEMPS...WAS ABLE TO GO WITH ALLBLEND IN WAKE OF THE SYSTEM AS
MODELS COME INTO AGREEMENT WITH THE WEATHER PATTERN. MUCH COOLER
TEMPS IN THE 40S AND 50S CAN BE EXPECTED FOR FRIDAY WITH DRY
CONDITIONS.

&&

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...

ISSUED AT 247 PM EDT WED APR 10 2013

DRY COOL START TO THE WEEKEND AS THE UPPER TROUGH WILL BE IN THE
PROCESS OF LIFTING OUT OF THE OHIO VALLEY. WARM ADVECTION WILL
COMMENCE BY SATURDAY EVENING AS SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE SHIFTS OFF
TO THE EAST AND SOUTHERLY FLOW DEVELOPS. HIGHS ON SATURDAY LIKELY
TO REMAIN MOSTLY IN THE UPPER 40S AND LOWER 50S WITH TEMPS FALLING
INTO THE 30S SATURDAY NIGHT.

FOCUS FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE EXTENDED IS ON THE ARRIVAL AND
PASSAGE OF A WARM FRONT ON SUNDAY...BRINGING A RETURN TO MUCH
WARMER AND INCREASINGLY UNSETTLED CONDITIONS AS WE HEAD INTO EARLY
NEXT WEEK WITH THE BOUNDARY BECOMING NEARLY STATIONARY ACROSS THE
REGION. OP GFS CONTINUES TO BE AN OUTLIER WITH A MORE INTENSE LEAD
WAVE ALONG THE BOUNDARY AND CONSEQUENTLY...THE MODEL APPEARS TO BE
OVERDOING RAINFALL POTENTIAL WITH THE WARM FRONT ON SUNDAY. WILL
CONTINUE TO INDICATE ONLY LOW CHANCE POPS SUNDAY AND FOCUS THEM
MAINLY NORTH OF I-70. MODEL DIFFERENCES ABOUND THROUGH THE REST OF
THE EXTENDED AS THE FRONT WILL OSCILLATE ACROSS THE OHIO VALLEY
WITH WAVES TRAVERSING THE BOUNDARY. AT THIS POINT...WILL CARRY
CHANCE FOR THUNDERSTORMS FROM MONDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY. HIGH
TEMPS WILL RETURN INTO THE 60S AND 70S DURING THE PERIOD...
POSSIBLY EVEN WARMER SHOULD THE BOUNDARY SET UP FURTHER NORTH IN
THE LOWER GREAT LAKES.

&&

.AVIATION /DISCUSSION FOR 101800Z TAF ISSUANCE/...

ISSUED AT 1255 PM EDT WED APR 10 2013

POTENTIAL FOR MVFR/IFR CONDITIONS WITHIN CONVECTION THIS AFTERNOON
AND EARLY EVENING. MORE WIDESPREAD MVFR/IFR CONDITIONS WILL
DEVELOP WITHIN THUNDERSTORMS EARLY THURSDAY MORNING.

WARM FRONT REMAINS ACROSS THE EXTREME NORTHERN PART OF THE
FORECAST AREA EARLY THIS AFTERNOON...CREATING A COMPLEX FORECAST
OVER THE NEXT SEVERAL HOURS AS DISTURBANCES ALOFT RIPPLE ALONG THE
BOUNDARY. CONVECTION INCREASING CURRENTLY IN ADVANCE OF A WAVE
ALOFT MOVING THROUGH CENTRAL ILLINOIS. WITH THE ATMOSPHERE
BECOMING INCREASINGLY MOIST AND UNSTABLE...ANTICIPATE CONVECTION TO
INCREASE IN COVERAGE THROUGH THE AFTERNOON WITH THE POTENTIAL TO
PRODUCE LOCALLY IFR CONDITIONS WITHIN HEAVIER STORMS AS THEY
IMPACT THE TERMINALS. WINDS WILL REMAIN FROM THE SOUTHWEST AND
GUST AT 25-30KTS AT KBMG/KHUF/KIND INTO THE EARLY EVENING. WIND
FORECAST MUCH MORE PROBLEMATIC AT KLAF AS BOUNDARY HAS SLIPPED
JUST SOUTH OF THE TERMINAL. WHILE WINDS HAVE SHIFTED TO THE
NORTH...LIKELY TO SEE VARIABLE DIRECTION ON THE WINDS AT TIMES
OVER THE NEXT FEW HOURS WITH THE BOUNDARY REMAINING IN THE
VICINITY OF THE TERMINAL.

WIND DIRECTION WILL TRANSITION TO S/SE AT ALL TERMINALS BY THIS
EVENING WITH THE MAIN LOW PRESSURE WAVE MOVING INTO THE MID
MISSISSIPPI VALLEY. THE TRACK OF THIS SYSTEM IS LIKELY TO PUSH
THE WARM FRONT BACK TO THE NORTH OF KLAF...AND IS LIKELY TO SHIFT
MORE WIDESPREAD CONVECTION NORTH OF THE TERMINALS AS WELL. WILL
MAINTAIN A VCTS MENTION AT ALL SITES THROUGH MUCH OF THE NIGHT
HOWEVER AS A STEADILY INTENSIFYING LOW LEVEL JET MAINTAINS A
WARM MOIST AIRMASS OVER THE REGION. THE LOW WILL TRACK INTO
NORTHWEST INDIANA BY DAYBREAK THURSDAY WITH A STRONG COLD FRONT
MOVING ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA DURING THE FIRST HALF OF THE DAY.
THIS WILL BRING A RENEWED PERIOD WITH WIDESPREAD AND OCCASIONALLY
HEAVY CONVECTION THROUGH MIDDAY ALONG WITH IFR CONDITIONS. WINDS
WILL BEGIN TO VEER TO THE SOUTHWEST TOWARDS THE END OF THE
FORECAST PERIOD AS THE FRONT PASSES THE TERMINALS.
