AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE INDIANAPOLIS IN
325 PM EST FRI FEB 21 2014

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

&&

.SYNOPSIS...
ISSUED AT 202 PM EST FRI FEB 21 2014

LOW PRESSURE OVER LAKE SUPERIOR WILL MOVE QUICKLY NORTH AWAY FROM
INDIANA WHILE HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE SOUTHERN PLAINS SLIDES EAST
ACROSS THE DEEP SOUTH THROUGH SATURDAY. THIS WILL PROVIDE DRY AND
COOL WEATHER TO CENTRAL INDIANA TONIGHT AND SATURDAY

A WEAK UPPER LEVEL WEATHER DISTURBANCE WILL PUSH ACROSS INDIANA
AND THE SOUTHERN GREAT LAKES ON SATURDAY NIGHT AND SUNDAY. THIS
WILL RESULT IN CHANCES FOR SOME LIGHT SNOW.

IN THE WAKE OF THAT SYSTEM...A MUCH COLDER AIR MASS WILL RETURN
TO INDIANA ASSOCIATED WITH COLD CANADIAN HIGH PRESSURE. THIS
SYSTEM WILL BE LINGERING ACROSS THE REGION THROUGH MUCH OF THE NEXT
WORK WEEK PROVIDING BELOW NORMAL TEMPERATURES.

&&

.NEAR TERM /TONIGHT/...

ISSUED AT 202 PM EST FRI FEB 21 2014

SURFACE ANALYSIS EARLY THIS AFTERNOON SHOWS A LARGE AREA OF HIGH
PRESSURE OVER TEXAS STRETCHING NORTHEAST INTO THE TENNESSEE RIVER
VALLEY. DEEP LOW PRESSURE WAS FOUND OVER LAKE SUPERIOR...QUICKLY
PULLING NORTH. A GOOD PRESSURE GRADIENT REMAINED IN PLACE ACROSS
INDIANA AS WINDS CONTINUED TO GUST BETWEEN 30 AND 40 MPH ACROSS
THE FORECAST AREA. SATELLITE IMAGES SHOW CLEARING SKIES BUILDING
INTO CENTRAL INDIANA FROM THE SOUTHWEST.

MAIN FORECAST CHALLENGE TONIGHT WILL BE TEMPS.

FORECAST SOUNDINGS AND TIME HEIGHTS CONTINUE TO DRY OUT THIS
EVENING AS THE HIGH PRESSURE SYSTEM SLIDES EAST AND THE LOW PULLS
FARTHER NORTH. PRESSURE GRADIENT IS EXPECTED TO LESSEN AS THE LOW
PULLS NORTH AND WINDS WILL BEGIN TO DECREASE. THUS WILL TREND
TOWARD CLEAR SKIES TONIGHT ALONG WITH LIGHTER WINDS.

850MB SURFACE SHOWS WARM AIR ADVECTION TONIGHT AS THE COLD POOL
ASSOCIATED WITH THE DEPARTING LOW QUICKLY PULLS NORTHEAST. 850MB
TEMPS LOOK TO RISE TOWARD -1C BY 12Z. THUS WILL TREND LOWS TONIGHT
TOWARD THE WARMER SIDE OF THE MAV.

&&

.SHORT TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...

ISSUED AT 202 PM EST FRI FEB 21 2014

MAIN FORECAST CHALLENGE DURING THIS PERIOD WILL BE POPS ON
SATURDAY NIGHT AND EARLY SUNDAY.

GFS AND NAM BOTH SUGGEST THE PERSISTENT PATTERN THAT HAS BEEN IN
PLACE THROUGH MUCH OF THE WINTER WILL RETURN THROUGH THE WEEKEND.
THIS INFAMOUS PATTERN I SPEAK OF IS THE THE LARGE TROUGH IN THE
UPPER FLOW STRETCHING ACROSS THE EASTERN HALF OF THE COUNTRY THAT
CONTINUALLY ALLOWS COLD...POLAR AIR TO SPILL OUT OF CANADA INTO
OUR REGION.

WITH A QUICK FLOW ALOFT IN PLACE ON SATURDAY...FORECAST SOUNDINGS
HINT AT SOME HIGHER LEVEL MOISTURE ARRIVING AS THE DAY PROGRESSES
AHEAD OF SUBTLE AND QUICK MOVING SHORT WAVE IN THE FLOW. FORECAST
SOUNDINGS ALSO SHOW CONVECTIVE TEMPERATURES IN THE MIDDLE 50S WILL
WOULD BE REALLY HARD TO REACH GIVEN OUR EXPECTED 850MB TEMPS.
THUS WILL JUST TREND TOWARD A PARTLY CLOUDY SKY TO DUE THE HIGH
CLOUDS INCREASING AND USE A BLEND OF MAVMOS AND METMOS FOR HIGHS.

ON SATURDAY NIGHT CLOUDS ARE EXPECTED TO CONTINUE TO INCREASE AS
THE WEAK SHORT WAVE APPROACHES IN THE FLOW. LOWER LEVEL Q VECTORS
SHOW SOME DECENT CONVERGENCE ON LATE SATURDAY NIGHT. FORECAST
SOUNDINGS ALSO NEARLY BECOME DEEPLY SATURATED. HOWEVER MOISTURE
REMAINS SUSPECT AS GULF REMAINS CLOSED AND NORTHWEST FLOW WILL
ONLY PROVIDE PACIFIC MOISTURE. HOWEVER GIVEN THE PATTERN THIS
SEASON...THAT HAS NOT BEEN MUCH OF A PROBLEM. THUS WILL TREND POPS
HIGHER THAN THE MAV FOR SOME LIGHT SNOW AMOUNTS. NOT READY TO GET
AS AGGRESSIVE AS THE METMOS YET. AS FOR LOW TEMPS...GIVEN THE
EXPECTED CLOUDS AND POSSIBLE PRECIP WILL TREND WARMER THAN MAVMOS.

AS THIS SYSTEM WILL BE QUICKLY MOVING OUT OF THE AREA ON SUNDAY
MORNING...WILL KEEP A MENTION OF CHC POPS DURING THE MORNING
HOURS...HOWEVER AS THE DAY PROGRESSES TREND POPS MUCH LOWER AS THE
SYSTEM AND FORCING DEPARTS. GOOD COLD AIR ADVECTION LOOKS TO BE
IN PLACE ON SUNDAY AND WILL TREND HIGHS AT OR BELOW MAVMOS VALUES.

ON SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY MORNING THE GFS AND NAM SUGGEST
LOWER LEVEL RIDGING BUILDING ACROSS THE MISSISSIPPI AND OHIO
VALLEYS. 850MB TEMPS REMAIN RATHER COLD THROUGH THE PERIOD AS THE
HOLD BETWEEN -6C AND -8C. BY LATE MONDAY AFTERNOON...FORECAST
SOUNDINGS ONCE AGAIN HINTING AS SATURATION AS A WARM FRONTAL
BOUNDARY AND YET ANOTHER QUICK MOVING SHORT WAVE APPROACH FROM THE
NORTHWEST. WILL NEED TO INCLUDE SOME CHC POPS...PARTICULARLY
ACROSS THE NORTHWEST DURING THE AFTERNOON HOURS FOR THIS FEATURE.
WITH EXPECTED CLOUDS INCREASING DURING THE AFTERNOON WILL TREND
TOWARD THE COOLER SIDE OF MEXMOS FOR MONDAY HIGHS.

&&

.LONG TERM /MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY/...

ISSUED AT 226 PM EST FRI FEB 21 2014

THE LONG TERM PATTERN WILL BE CONTROLLED BY UPPER LOW PRESSURE
OVER CENTRAL AND EASTERN CANADA...WHICH WILL ALLOW COLD AIR AND
THE RESULTING BELOW NORMAL TEMPERATURES TO SPILL DOWN INTO CENTRAL
INDIANA. THERE IS POTENTIAL FOR A COUPLE OF WEAK UPPER WAVES TO
MOVE THROUGH THIS FLOW AND BRING CHANCES FOR SNOW...BUT MOISTURE
IS LIMITED AND RIGHT NOW NO BIG STORMS APPEAR HEADED FOR THE AREA.
BEST CHANCES FOR PRECIPITATION APPEAR TO BE MONDAY NIGHT ACROSS
THE NORTH AND TUESDAY NIGHT ACROSS THE SOUTH. ONLY MADE MINOR
COSMETIC ADJUSTMENTS TO THE ALLBLEND INTIALIZATION WITH MODELS IN
RELATIVELY GOOD AGREEMENT. COLUMN SHOULD BE COLD ENOUGH FOR ALL
SNOW BOTH NIGHTS AND RIGHT NOW ONLY LOOKS LIKE MINOR ACCUMULATIONS
ARE POSSIBLE.

&&

.AVIATION /DISCUSSION FOR 212100Z IND TAF UPDATE...

ISSUED AT 325 PM EST FRI FEB 21 2014

NO CHANGES NEEDED TO TAF.

PREVIOUS DISCUSSION FOLLOWS...

VFR THROUGH THE PERIOD. ONLY REAL ISSUE FOR THE SITES SHOULD BE
WIND GUSTS. EXPECT GUSTS OF 25-40 KTS TO CONTINUE FOR THE NEXT
COUPLE OF HOURS BEFORE DROPPING TO 25-32 KTS AND THEN GUSTS
SUBSIDING BY AROUND 23Z. MAY NEED TO WATCH FOR LOW LEVEL WIND
SHEAR TONIGHT 2-8Z BUT AT THIS TIME LOOKS LIKE THE SHEAR LAYER
WILL BE ABOVE 2000 FT.

NAM MODEL IS SHOWING AN UPPER WAVE MOVING THROUGH TONIGHT /AROUND
3-6Z/ THAT COULD PRODUCE SOME SNOW AT KLAF. MOS GUIDANCE AND OTHER
MODELS DON/T SHOW ANY PRECIP AS THERE IS SO MUCH DRY AIR ADVECTING
IN. THUS WILL LEAVE OUT WITH THIS ISSUANCE BUT GO WITH BROKEN VFR
CEILINGS THERE DURING THAT TIME.
