AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NORTHERN INDIANA
321 PM EDT FRI SEP 20 2013

.SYNOPSIS...
ISSUED AT 1117 AM EDT FRI SEP 20 2013

A COLD FRONT TO THE WEST OF THE COUNTY WARNING AREA WILL BE
PASSING THROUGH THIS EVENING INTO TONIGHT. THIS FRONT WILL BE
USHERING RAIN SHOWERS AND SOME THUNDERSTORMS THROUGH THE AREA
AHEAD OF COLDER TEMPERATURES FOR TONIGHT AND INTO THE WEEKEND.
HIGH TEMPERATURES TODAY WILL RANGE FROM THE LOWER 70S NEAR LAKE
MICHIGAN TO THE LOWER 80S NEAR THE OHIO RIVER. LOWS TONIGHT WILL
RANGE FROM THE LOWER 50S IN THE WEST TO AROUND 60 IN THE EAST.
HIGHS TOMORROW WILL BE IN THE 60S.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(THIS AFTERNOON THROUGH SATURDAY)
ISSUED AT 320 PM EDT FRI SEP 20 2013

CONVECTION DEVELOPING NEAR AND EAST THE INTERSTATE 69 CORRIDOR
ALONG A PRE-FRONTAL TROUGH/DIFFERENTIAL HEATING BOUNDARY WILL
CONTINUE TO INCREASE A BIT IN COVERAGE/INTENSITY AS IT GRADUALLY
SHIFTS EAST DURING THE LATE AFTERNOON HOURS. THIS AREA HAS
ATTAINED NEARLY 1500 J/KG OF SBCAPE WITH LITTLE MLCIN OF
NOTE...BUT SEVERE RISK SHOULD BE LIMITED TO AN ISOLATED WIND/HAIL
THREAT AT BEST GIVEN SKINNY NATURE TO CAPE, MEAGER LAPSE RATES,
AND DEEP LAYER SHEAR/FLOW NEEDED FOR ORGANIZATION LAGGING BEHIND
THE PRE-FRONTAL TROUGH.

SHOWER ACTIVITY TO THE WEST IN MORE STABLE/CLOUDED OVER AIRMASS HAS
BEEN SLOW TO TAKE OFF TODAY WITH ACTIVITY MORE ISOLATED AND LIGHT IN
NATURE AHEAD OF THE PRIMARY SFC FRONT AND ASSOCIATED UPPER TROUGH.
EXPECT THE SHOWER/ISO THUNDER COVERAGE TO INCREASE ACROSS CENTRAL
AND EASTERN PORTIONS OF THE FORECAST AREA LATER THIS AFTERNOON AND
EVENING AS THE AREA BECOMES POSITIONED UNDER THE RIGHT ENTRANCE
REGION OF A 120 KT UPPER JET. UPWARD QG FORCING/HEIGHT FALLS WITH
THE AMPLIFYING UPPER MIDWEST UPPER TROUGH...AND NORTHWARD TRANSPORT
OF DEEPER TROPICAL MOISTURE...WILL ALSO AID IN FURTHER DEEPENING OF
THE FRONTAL CIRCULATION. AS A RESULT HELD ON TO HIGHER
LIKELY-CATEGORICAL POPS ACROSS THE EASTERN HALF OF THE FA THIS
EVENING...WITH RAIN LIKELY LINGERING THROUGH THE NIGHT IN NW OHIO.
NORTHWEST INDIANA AND SW LOWER MICHIGAN WILL REMAIN MAINLY DRY THIS
AFTERNOON/TONIGHT.

POST FRONTAL COLD/DRY ADVECTION RAMPS UP IN WAKE OF FRONT LATER
TONIGHT INTO SATURDAY...WITH MODELS AGREEING ON 850 MB TEMPS FALLING
TO 4-5C IN DEEPENING NW FLOW. EXPECT A BKN/OVC STRATOCUMULUS
CLOUD DECK TO SETTLE IN FOR MUCH OF THE DAY SATURDAY GIVEN CYCLONIC
FLOW AND MOISTURE FLUX OF THE LAKE PER LAKE-850 MB TEMP
DIFFERENTIALS INTO THE MID TEENS. CANNOT RULE A FEW INSTABILITY/LAKE
EFFECT SPRINKLES/SHOWERS ACROSS THE NORTH AS COLD POCKET ALOFT
PIVOTS THROUGH THE LOWER LAKES. INVERSION HEIGHTS WELL BELOW THE
-10C LEVEL WITH SIG DRYING/SUBSIDENCE ABOVE THIS SUGGEST THAT MOST
AREAS WILL REMAIN PRECIPITATION FREE TOMORROW.

&&

.LONG TERM...(SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY)
ISSUED AT 320 PM EDT FRI SEP 20 2013

SFC HIGH WILL MOVE SE ACROSS THE UPR GRTLKS LATE THIS WEEKEND WITH
RIDGE EXTENDING SOUTHWARD CROSSING OUR CWA. LIGHT NE GRADIENT WINDS
AND SOME LINGERING LAKE EFFECT CLOUDINESS MAY HELP KEEP BOUNDARY
LAYER FROM TOTALLY DECOUPLING SAT NGT. WEAKER GRADIENT SUNDAY NIGHT
WITH LESS CLOUDINESS AND BETTER DECOUPLING BUT LOW LEVEL THERMAL
TROF WILL BE TO OUR EAST BY THEN. RESULT SHOULD BE LOWS IN THE
L-M40S BOTH NIGHTS. JUST SOME FAIR WX CU EXPECTED DURING THE DAY
SUNDAY WITH HIGHS IN THE L-M60S.

UPR RIDGE OVER THE ROCKIES THIS AFTN IS EXPECTED TO MOVE TO THE WRN
GRTLKS BY MONDAY WITH SHRTWV CURRENTLY APCHG THE WEST COAST MOVG TO
THE PLAINS. THIS SYSTEM EXPECTED TO LIFT NE AND WEAKEN/SHEAR OUT TUE
AS ANOTHER STRONG SHRTWV DIGS INTO THE WRN U.S. WHICH WILL RESULT IN
STRENGTHENING OF THE UPR RIDGE OVER THE ERN U.S. WED-FRI. GFS IS
QUICKER TO BREAK THIS RIDGE DOWN AS WRN TROF EJECTS E-NE LATE NEXT
WEEK. GIVEN AMPLIFIED FLOW... SLOWER USUALLY BETTER THUS ECMWF
SOLUTION PREFERRED SUGGESTING DRY WX CONTG ACROSS OUR AREA THROUGH
THE END OF THE PERIOD WITH TEMPS GRDLY WARMING TO WELL ABOVE NORMAL
BY LATE WEEK.

.AVIATION...(FOR THE 18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z SATURDAY AFTERNOON)
ISSUED AT 1227 PM EDT FRI SEP 20 2013

AT SBN...BULK OF SHOWER/STORM ACTIVITY WILL DEVELOP SOUTH AND EAST
OF THE TERMINAL THIS AFTERNOON/EVENING. HOWEVER...STILL OPTED FOR
A VCSH MENTION THROUGH LATE AFTERNOON TO COVER POTENTIAL FOR A
FEW SHOWERS TO DEVELOP AHEAD/ALONG OF PRIMARY COLD FRONT. CIGS IN
MOIST AIRMASS LIKELY TO BE MAINLY MVFR IN ADVANCE OF FRONT THROUGH
THE EARLY EVENING.

AT FWA...EXPECT SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS SHOWERS/STORMS TO DEVELOP
BTW 18-20Z...WITH MORE WIDESPREAD SHOWER ACTIVITY CONTINUING LATER
THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING AS THE AREA BECOMES LOCATED UNDER RIGHT
ENTRANCE REGION OF AN UPPER JET WHICH WILL AID IN STRENGTHENING
THE LOW LEVEL FRONTAL BOUNDARY. BRIEF IFR CONDITIONS POSSIBLE WITH
ANY CONVECTION...WITH MAINLY MVFR/LOW VFR EXPECTED.

VFR/DRY CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED BY EARLY EVENING AT SBN AND LATE
