FLOOD STATEMENT
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE INDIANAPOLIS IN
724 PM EDT THU JUN 18 2015
...A Flood Warning continues for portions of the following rivers in
Indiana...
Deer Creek...Mississinewa River...Tippecanoe River...Wabash River...
White River...Wildcat Creek...
.With already elevated river levels and scattered showers and
thunderstorms in the forecast through the weekend, particular
across the southern half of Indiana from the remnants of Tropical
Depression Bill, minor to moderate flooding is expected to continue
in central Indiana. Southern Indiana has not seen much rain recently
so this will help combat the expected plentiful rainfall.
As of Thursday evening, the crest along the Wabash River was near
Lafayette. The river was in the moderate flood category at Americus,
Battleground, Lafayette, and Covington. Flooding along the river
will last as late as the week of the 28th.
The Tippecanoe River, feeding into the Wabash from the north, had
flooding continuing but decreasing below Oakdale Dam and at Delphi.
Crests along the White River are expected to be near flood stage,
thus impacts should be minimal.
Precautionary/Preparedness Actions...
Motorists should never drive into flood water. Turn around and go
another way. Keep children away from flooded areas. Recreational and
agricultural interests should remain alert to changing river
conditions.
For detailed flood information go to weather.gov/ind on the web and

Area forecast discussion, Jun 18, 10:48 AM EDT, 8 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE INDIANAPOLIS IN 1048 AM EDT THU JUN 18 2015 .UPDATE... THE NEAR TERM SECTION HAS BEEN UPDATED BELOW. && .SYNOPSIS... ISSUED AT 354 AM EDT THU JUN 18 2015 UNSETTLED WEATHER CONTINUES ACROSS CENTRAL INDIANA AS AN UPPER LEVEL RIDGE OVER THE SOUTHEAST...A FRONTAL SYSTEM LINGERING ACROSS THE MIDWEST...AND THE APPROACH OF THE REMNANTS OF TROPICAL CYCLONE BILL COMBINE TO MAKE FOR THUNDERSTORM CHANCES EACH DAY AND NIGHT THROUGH EARLY NEXT WEEK. THE MOST CRITICAL OF THESE TIMES WILL BE FRIDAY INTO SATURDAY AS THE BILL REMNANTS MOVE UP THE OHIO VALLEY...POTENTIALLY BRINGING VERY HEAVY RAINFALL AND FLOODING TO THE AREA. && .NEAR TERM /REST OF TODAY/... ISSUED AT 1033 AM EDT THU JUN 18 2015 1400Z UPDATE...MANY CHANGES TO THE FORECAST FOR THE FIRST HALF OF THE DAY. MAINLY TO REMOVE POPS UNTIL LATER THIS AFTERNOON AND ALLOW FOR CLEAR SKIES ACROSS THE SOUTH AS IS CURRENTLY BEING DEPICTED...AND THEN THIS WILL BEGIN TO FILL BACK IN AS THE PESKY BOUNDARY BEGINS TO DROP BACK SOUTHWARD AGAIN AND THIS TRIGGERS RENEWED DEVELOPMENT FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS MAINLY LATER THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING. DEBATED ON WHETHER TO LOWER HIGH TEMPERATURES TODAY BASED ON RECENT COOLER TRENDS...AND THE FACT CLOUDS AND RAIN WILL BE MOVING IN A FEW HOURS AS WELL. HOWEVER ULTIMATELY DECIDED THAT AS THE LOW LEVEL SOUTHWEST FLOW PICKS UP THIS AFTERNOON AND BEGINS PUMPING EVEN WARMER AIR INTO THE FORECAST AREA...THIS IS USUALLY WHAT ENDS UP BUSTING FOR THE FORECASTER WHO CHOOSES TO DROP HIGH TEMPERATURES. MADE SOME OTHER MINOR MODIFICATIONS TO THE FORECAST BASED ON LATEST TRENDS AND NEAR TERM GUIDANCE. UPDATED FORECAST ALREADY WENT OUT AROUND 945/1000 AM TIMEFRAME. AND THE PREVIOUS DISCUSSION FOLLOWS... CONDITIONS ARE QUIET ACROSS CENTRAL INDIANA THIS MORNING WITH A LACK OF UPPER LEVEL SUPPORT AT THE MOMENT FOR PRECIPITATION...BUT AN APPROACHING SHORTWAVE AHEAD OF THE BILL REMNANTS...AS WELL AS POTENTIAL THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY ALONG THE LINGERING FRONTAL SYSTEM IN THE HEAT OF THE AFTERNOON...WILL NECESSITATE LIKELY POPS ACROSS THE AREA THIS AFTERNOON. CANNOT ARGUE WITH THE SLIGHT RISK FOR TODAY...BUT HYDRO CONCERNS CONTINUE TO BE THE MORE PRESSING ISSUE. FLASH FLOOD GUIDANCE VALUES REMAIN RELATIVELY HIGH ACROSS MUCH OF THE AREA SAVE FOR THE EXTREME NORTH AND NORTHEAST...AND THUS EXPECT ANY FLASH FLOOD THREAT TO BE VERY LOCALIZED TODAY. ON TEMPS...CONSENSUS NUMBERS APPEARED SLIGHTLY TOO WARM GIVEN EXPECTED CLOUD COVER AND PRECIP TODAY. && .SHORT TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/... ISSUED AT 354 AM EDT THU JUN 18 2015 FOCUS OF THE SHORT TERM IS ON THE IMPACTS OF THE BILL REMNANTS WHICH APPEAR LIKELY TO MOVE UP THE MID MISSISSIPPI AND OHIO VALLEYS FRIDAY INTO SATURDAY. MODELS HAVE CONTINUED TO TREND A BIT FURTHER SOUTH AND WILL FOCUS HIGHEST POPS ACROSS THE SOUTHERN FORECAST AREA DURING THIS TIME PERIOD...AS WELL AS INSERTING A HEAVY RAIN MENTION. A BIT EARLY FOR A FLOOD WATCH ESPECIALLY GIVEN THAT THE AREA IN QUESTION HAS BEEN AMONG THE DRIEST AREAS IN THE STATE IN RECENT DAYS...BUT WILL ISSUE AN ESF TO HIGHLIGHT THE THREAT AS WELL AS CONTINUING TO MENTION IN OTHER VENUES. ON TEMPS...CONSENSUS NUMBERS APPEARED REASONABLE WITH MINOR TWEAKS. PRECIP WILL HAVE EXTENSIVE IMPACTS ON MAX TEMPS ESPECIALLY OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS. && .LONG TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/... ISSUED AT 327 AM EDT THU JUN 18 2015 IN THE WAKE OF THE REMNANTS OF TROPICAL STORM BILL...THE OHIO VALLEY WILL REMAIN IN AN UNSETTLED PATTERN TO START THE WEEK AS A FRONTAL BOUNDARY SINKS INTO THE REGION. EXPANSION OF A STRONG UPPER RIDGE WILL FORCE THE BOUNDARY BACK NORTH BY THE MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK WITH A TRANSITION TO HOTTER TEMPERATURES. EXPECT SCATTERED STORMS TO CONTINUE ACROSS THE AREA SUNDAY AS LOW PRESSURE TRACKS THROUGH THE GREAT LAKES AND ENABLES A COLD FRONT TO SINK INTO THE FORECAST AREA. THE PRESENCE OF THE FLATTENED RIDGE TO THE SOUTH WILL STALL THE BOUNDARY SOMEWHERE ACROSS THE AREA SUNDAY NIGHT BEFORE BEGINNING A SLOW RETURN NORTHWARD ON MONDAY AS THE RIDGE AMPLIFIES WITH EXPANSION OF THE HEAT DOME EAST OUT OF THE FOUR CORNERS REGION. COULD BE AN INTERESTING COUPLE DAYS EARLY IN THE WEEK BEFORE THE RIDGE BECOMES MORE FIRMLY ESTABLISHED...AS THE OHIO VALLEY WILL RESIDE WITHIN A BAND OF FASTER NORTHWEST FLOW ALOFT ON THE FLANK OF THE EXPANDING RIDGE. WITH A SURFACE BOUNDARY IN THE AREA AS WELL... SETUP COULD SUPPORT PERIODIC CONVECTIVE CLUSTERS /RIDGE RIDERS/ WITH A SEVERE WEATHER THREAT IMPACTING CENTRAL INDIANA. WILL MAINTAIN CHANCE POPS THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT AS A RESULT. DOES APPEAR THE FRONT WILL BE FORCED NORTH INTO THE LOWER GREAT LAKES BY WEDNESDAY AS THE CORE OF THE RIDGE SETS UP OVER THE TENNESSEE VALLEY. NOT OUT OF THE QUESTION THAT CONVECTION RIDING AROUND THE RIDGE SNEAKS INTO NORTHERN PORTIONS OF THE FORECAST AREA WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY...BUT CONFIDENCE IS TOO LOW TO MENTION IN THE FORECAST AT THIS TIME. A SHIFT TO HOTTER AND DRIER WEATHER STILL A LIKELY SCENARIO BY MIDWEEK FOR MUCH OF THE AREA AS 850MB TEMPS SURGE ABOVE 20C WITH HIGHS IN THE LOWER/MIDDLE 90S. && .AVIATION /DISCUSSION FOR 181500Z TAF UPDATE/... ISSUED AT 1026 AM EDT THU JUN 18 2015 MVFR CEILINGS HAVE MOVED NORTHEAST OF KIND SO HAVE REMOVED THEM FROM TAF. CLOUDS AROUND 4500FT ARE QUICKLY DEVELOPING TO THE SOUTHWEST SO BROUGHT A BKN045 CEILING INTO KIND QUICKER THAN BEFORE. AM WATCHING RAINFALL DEVELOPMENT TO THE WEST CLOSELY AND MAY HAVE TO GO MORE WIDESPREAD RAIN THIS AFTERNOON IF HRRR MODEL IS CORRECT. PREVIOUS DISCUSSION FOLLOWS... MVFR AND LOWER CEILINGS WILL IMPACT ALL BUT KBMG THIS MORNING... THEN GENERALLY VFR THROUGH THIS EVENING WITH EXCEPTION OF CONVECTION. STRATUS ENCOMPASSING MOST OF THE AREA ALONG AND NORTH OF I-70 EARLY THIS MORNING...WITH CEILINGS FROM AS LOW AS 500FT TO AROUND 2000FT. RAP MODEL SOUNDINGS AND RH PROGS AT 950/975MB CAPTURING THIS NICELY WITH MOISTURE TRAPPED BENEATH A SHALLOW INVERSION. THE INVERSION SHOULD WEAKEN QUICKLY BY LATE MORNING WITH CEILINGS RECOVERING TO VFR AND MIXING OUT. INITIAL SURGE OF ENHANCED TROPICAL MOISTURE WILL BE PULLED INTO THE REGION FORM THE SOUTHWEST THIS AFTERNOON AHEAD OF AN APPROACHING FRONTAL BOUNDARY FROM THE NORTH AND AN UPPER LEVEL WAVE. THESE FEATURES COMBINED WITH THE MOIST UNSTABLE AIRMASS IN PLACE WILL LIKELY GENERATE SCATTERED CONVECTION AFTER 18Z AND WILL PLACE VCTS MENTION AT ALL TERMINALS. ANY THUNDERSTORM WILL HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO PRODUCE SUB-IFR CONDITIONS FOR A BRIEF PERIOD. SOUTHWEST WINDS WILL GUST TO 20-25KTS THROUGH THE AFTERNOON. LIKELY TO BE A LULL IN PRECIP COVERAGE THIS EVENING AS INSTABILITY WANES WITH SUNSET. HI-RES GUIDANCE THOUGH BRINGS IN MORE WIDESPREAD RAINFALL INTO THE SOUTHERN HALF OF INDIANA AFTER MIDNIGHT AHEAD OF THE REMNANTS OF BILL. THUNDER SHOULD BE LIMITED WITH LITTLE INSTABILITY OVERNIGHT. WILL REINTRODUCE RAIN SHOWERS AT ALL BUT KLAF AFTER 06Z WITH POTENTIAL FOR MVFR CONDITIONS. WINDS WILL BECOME LIGHT W/NW AS THE BOUNDARY SINKS INTO THE FORECAST AREA. && .IND WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
