AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE INDIANAPOLIS IN
1029 AM EDT WED APR 8 2015

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

&&

.SYNOPSIS...
ISSUED AT 304 AM EDT WED APR 8 2015

A FRONTAL SYSTEM IS EXPECTED TO REMAIN ACROSS THE AREA THROUGH
TONIGHT...BEFORE LIFTING OFF TO THE NORTH ON THURSDAY. A COLD FRONT
IS EXPECTED TO MOVE THROUGH THE AREA THURSDAY NIGHT. IN THE WAKE OF
THIS FRONT...HIGH PRESSURE WILL MOVE INTO THE AREA OVER THE WEEKEND.
ANOTHER FRONTAL SYSTEM MAY AFFECT THE AREA BY EARLY NEXT WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /TODAY/...

ISSUED AT 1028 AM EDT WED APR 8 2015

THERE SHOULD BE A BREAK IN THE ACTION THANKS TO STABILIZATION FROM
THIS MORNINGS SYSTEM. HOWEVER THE HRRR REINTRODUCES PRECIPITATION
DURING THE AFTERNOON AS A WARM HUMID FLOW CONTINUES FROM THE
SOUTHWEST.  ALSO...BASED ON WHAT WE SEE IN ILLINOIS THERE MAY WELL
BE SOME BREAKS EARLY IN THE AFTERNOON WHICH WOULD LEAD TO RAPID
DESTABILIZATION.

ALL THINGS CONSIDERED...LIKELY POPS SEEM BEST OVER THE SOUTHERN CWA
MOST OF THE AFTERNOON AND OVER THE ENTIRE CWA BY LATER AFTERNOON.
FORECAST TEMPERATURES FOR TODAY MIGHT BE TOO HIGH. HOWEVER WITH EVEN
A FEW BREAKS THE THERMOMETER WILL ROCKET UP. HIGHS FROM THE EARLIER
FORECAST WILL BE KEPT IN THE UPDATE.

&&

.SHORT TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT/...
ISSUED AT 304 AM EDT WED APR 8 2015

SURFACE WAVE EXPECTED TO MOVE ACROSS NORTHERN INDIANA
TONIGHT...WHICH MAY ALLOW FOR THE FRONT TO SAG BACK TO THE SOUTH
TEMPORARILY. MODELS SUGGEST A STRONGER LOW LEVEL JET...ON THE ORDER
OF AROUND 40 KTS...WILL BE NOSING TOWARDS WESTERN INDIANA LATE
TONIGHT. AS A RESULT...THINK THE POTENTIAL FOR CONVECTION WILL BE
HIGHER TONIGHT. WILL GO WITH HIGH POPS OVER THE NORTHERN AND
CENTRAL ZONES...TAPERING OFF TO CHANCE POPS OVER THE SOUTH. LAPSE
RATES AND DEEP LAYER SHEAR SUGGEST POTENTIAL FOR ORGANIZED SEVERE
STORMS TONIGHT.

WILL CONTINUE WITH HIGH POPS ON THURSDAY AND THURSDAY NIGHT AS
PROGGED LOW LEVEL JET OF 45-50 KTS INTERACTS WITH AN APPROACHING
UPPER TROUGH AND SURFACE COLD FRONT. MAY BE A LULL IN THE
PRECIPITATION THREAT THURSDAY AFTERNOON AS THE LOCAL AREA GETS
FURTHER INTO THE WARM SECTOR BEFORE COLD FRONT ARRIVES THURSDAY
EVENING...BUT WON/T GET TOO DETAILED IN THE TIMING AT THIS POINT.

APPEARS DEEP SHEAR WILL BE MAXIMIZED OVER THE AREA THURSDAY NIGHT AS
THE CORE OF THE MID LEVEL JET APPROACHES. POTENTIAL FOR SEVERE
WILL CONTINUE UNTIL FRONTAL PASSAGE LATE THURSDAY NIGHT.

FRONTAL SHOULD BE FAR ENOUGH OFF TO THE EAST BY FRIDAY MORNING TO GO
DRY FOR FRIDAY AND FRIDAY NIGHT.

LOW LEVEL THICKNESS PROGS SUGGEST THE GFS MOS TEMPERATURE GUIDANCE
IN THE LATER PERIODS LOOK REASONABLE AT THIS POINT...ALTHOUGH THE
LOWS FRIDAY MORNING LOOK TOO WARM IN THE WAKE OF THE COLD FRONT.
WILL LOWER THEM ABOUT 3-5 DEGREES IN THAT PERIOD.

&&

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
ISSUED AT 304 AM EDT WED APR 8 2015

DRY PLEASANT WEATHER EXPECTED FOR MUCH OF THE WEEKEND AS HIGH
PRESSURE MOVES THROUGH THE OHIO VALLEY. AN UPPER TROUGH WILL BE IN
THE PROCESS OF MOVING AWAY TO THE EAST ON SATURDAY...WITH RIDGING
ALOFT AND WARM ADVECTION DEVELOPING FOR THE SECOND HALF OF THE
WEEKEND. HIGHS IN THE UPPER 50S AND LOWER 60S SATURDAY WILL WARM
PRIMARILY INTO THE 60S FOR SUNDAY.

UNSETTLED WEATHER THEN RETURNS FOR MUCH OF THE REST OF THE EXTENDED.
BROAD UPPER TROUGH EXPANDING ACROSS THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST AND
NORTHERN PLAINS WILL SERVE TO FLATTEN THE RIDGE BY LATE WEEKEND WITH
MOISTURE INCREASING AS A WEAK FRONT MOVES INTO THE GREAT LAKES.
COULD SEE A FEW SHOWERS BY SUNDAY AFTERNOON OVER WESTERN COUNTIES
WITH MORE EXTENSIVE PRECIP COVERAGE SUNDAY NIGHT AS THE SYSTEM TAPS
INTO A GULF MOISTURE FETCH. FAST MOVING UPPER LOW TRACKING WITH THE
SUBTROPICAL JET WILL MOVE FROM BAJA CALIFORNIA EARLY SUNDAY INTO THE
SOUTHERN PLAINS BY LATE MONDAY WITH SURFACE CYCLOGENESIS BY MONDAY
NIGHT. WARM FRONT SETS UP INTO THE OHIO VALLEY LATE MONDAY THROUGH
TUESDAY AND WILL PROMOTE ANOTHER PERIOD WITH SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS AS THE SURFACE WAVE TRACKS INTO THE REGION BY EARLY
WEDNESDAY. WILL CARRY CHANCE POPS FROM SUNDAY NIGHT INTO MIDWEEK.
HIGHS WILL LARGELY REMAIN IN THE 60S FOR MONDAY AND TUESDAY AS
CLOUDS AND RAINFALL LIKELY TO LIMIT TEMP RISES.

OUTLOOK: THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS
CENTRAL INDIANA FOR MAINLY LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT.

HAZARDS: LARGE HAIL...DAMAGING WIND GUSTS...CLOUD TO GROUND
