AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE INDIANAPOLIS IN
751 PM EDT THU APR 2 2015

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

&&

.SYNOPSIS...
ISSUED AT 330 PM EST THU APR 2 2015

UNSETTLED WEATHER WILL BE THE RULE THROUGH FRIDAY AND AGAIN AFTER
THE WEEKEND. A COLD FRONT WILL MOVE SOUTH ACROSS CENTRAL INDIANA AND
STALL ACROSS FAR SOUTHERN INDIANA LATE TONIGHT.  THEN MODEL TRACK AN
AREA OF LOW PRESSURE ACROSS THE OHIO VALLEY ON FRIDAY.

THE WEEKEND WILL BE COOLER AND DRY AS HIGH MOVES SOUTHEAST ACROSS
OUR REGION.

IN THE LONG TERM A SOUTHWEST FLOW ACROSS WILL SET UP ACROSS OUR AREA
WHICH WILL CAUSE OUR WEATHER TO BECOME UNSETTLED AGAIN AS A FRONTAL
SYSTEM STALLS ACROSS THE MIDWEST AND A SERIES OF LOW PRESSURE
SYSTEMS MOVE NORTHEAST ALONG THIS FRONT.

&&

.NEAR TERM /TONIGHT AND FRIDAY/...
ISSUED AT 330 PM EDT THU APR 2 2015

MAIN CONCERNS WILL BE POSSIBILITY OF SEVERE WEATHER THIS EVENING
CENTRAL AND SOUTH AND HEAVY RAIN CONCERNS MAINLY SOUTH THROUGH
FRIDAY.

RADAR LOOPS INDICATED NUMEROUS THUNDERSTORMS WERE OCCURRING SOUTH OF
OUR FORECAST AREA FROM EXTREME SOUTHEAST INDIANA SOUTH ACROSS
KENTUCKY.  THE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WHICH WERE EARLIER ACROSS
OUR REGION HAVE WORKED OVER THE AIRMASS ACROSS OUR REGION. BUT SOME
CLEARING WAS OCCURRING OVER ILLINOIS AND THERE MAY BE A PERIOD OF
SUNSHINE ACROSS OUR REGION WHICH MAY ALLOW THE AIRMASS TO
DESTABILIZE SOME.  MODELS INDICATE A COLD FRONT WILL PUSH SOUTHEAST
ACROSS OUR REGION TONIGHT AND SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS SHOULD
INCREASE AHEAD OF THIS FRONT THIS EVENING.

WILL GO WITH DEFINITE POPS OVER CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN SECTIONS
TONIGHT AND HIGH CHANCE POPS ACROSS OUR NORTH.

MODELS INDICATE NUMEROUS SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL MOVE ACROSS
SOUTHERN INDIANA THIS EVENING AND SOME OF THESE MAY PRODUCE HEAVY
RAINFALL.  QPF AMOUNTS OF UP TO 3 INCHES ARE POSSIBLE OVER SOUTHEAST
INDIANA TONIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY AND WILL ISSUE A FLOOD WATCH THROUGH
FRIDAY FOR THOSE AREAS ALONG AND SOUTHEAST OF A GREENSBURG TO
VINCENNES LINE.

MODELS HINT THAT THERE MAY BE A LULL IN PRECIPITATION ACROSS
NORTHERN SECTIONS LATER TONIGHT AS THE COLD FRONT MOVES INTO OUR
SOUTH. WILL LOWER POPS OVER FAR NORTH TO LOW CHANCE POPS AND END
MENTION OF THUNDER ACROSS OUR NORTH LATE TONIGHT.

ON FRIDAY RAIN WILL INCREASE AGAIN ACROSS OUR ENTIRE REGION AS LOW
PRESSURE TRACKS ACROSS THE OHIO VALLEY. SOME MODELS PRODUCE OVER AN
INCH OF RAIN ACROSS OUR SOUTH FRIDAY.

IN REGARDS TO TEMPERATURES WENT CLOSER TO THE WARMER MET NUMBERS
TONIGHT DUE TO CLOUDS AND PRECIPITATION.  ON FRIDAY SEVERAL MODELS
INDICATE FALLING TEMPERATURES AS THE LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM TRACKING TO
OUR SOUTH PULLS COLDER AIR INTO OUR REGION.  WENT CLOSER TO THE
COOLER MET TEMPERATURES ON FRIDAY.

&&

.SHORT TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY/...
ISSUED AT 330 PM EDT THU APR 2 2015

BUFKIT AND MODEL SOUNDINGS INDICATE A PERIOD OF MIXED PRECIPITATION
IS POSSIBLE ACROSS NORTHERN SECTIONS FRIDAY EVENING. WILL MENTION A
PERIOD OF MIXED RAIN AND SNOW FRIDAY EVENING FROM LAFAYETTE TO
MUNCIE AS 1000-850 MB THICKNESS WILL BE CLOSE TO 1300 METERS.
OTHERWISE...MOST OTHER AREAS WILL SEE A CHANCE OF SHOWERS FRIDAY
EVENING AND THEN DRY REST OF THE SHORT TERM.

THE WEEKEND WILL BE COOL AND DRY AS HIGH PRESSURE MOVES SOUTHEAST
ACROSS OUR REGION.   MODEL SOUNDINGS INDICATE MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES
SATURDAY THROUGH EARLY SUNDAY FOLLOWED BY INCREASING CLOUDS SUNDAY
AFTERNOON.

WENT CLOSE TO A MOS BLEND ON TEMPERATURES MOST PERIODS.  LOWS WILL
BE NEAR 30 SATURDAY MORNING AND MID TO UPPER 30S SUNDAY MORNING.
HIGHS WILL BE FROM 50 TO 55 SATURDAY AND LOWER TO MIDDLE 60S ON
SUNDAY.

&&

.LONG TERM /SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY/...
ISSUED AT 223 PM EDT THU APR 2 2015

MODELS ARE CLOSE ENOUGH THAT THE SUPERBLEND INITIALIZATION WAS
ACCEPTED FOR MOST ITEMS.

CENTRAL INDIANA WILL REMAIN IN SOUTHWEST FLOW ALOFT THROUGH MUCH OF
THE PERIOD...AND THIS WILL ALLOW A SURFACE FRONT TO MEANDER AROUND
THE REGION DURING THE LONG TERM.

CHANCES FOR RAIN AND TIMING OF RAIN WILL DEPEND ON EXACT FRONTAL
LOCATION AND ANY UPPER IMPULSES IN THE SOUTHWEST FLOW...BOTH OF
WHICH ARE TOO VARIABLE TO PIN DOWN THAT FAR OUT. WILL THUS STICK
WITH SUPERBLEND AND ITS DAILY CHANCES FOR RAIN THROUGH THE PERIOD.

TEMPERATURES WILL BOUNCE AROUND SOME DEPENDING ON WHERE THE SURFACE
FRONT IS EACH DAY.

&&

.AVIATION /DISCUSSION FOR THE 030000Z TAF ISSUANCE/...

ISSUED AT 735 PM EDT THU APR 2 2015

REDEVELOPMENT OF CONVECTION UNDERWAY THIS EVENING...ASSOCIATED
WITH THE COLD FRONT AND UPPER WAVE. CONVECTION PRETTY MUCH THROUGH
KLAF...AND WILL BE OUT OF KHUF AND KIND IN THE NEXT COUPLE OF
HOURS...HOWEVER ACTIVITY MAY LINGER ACROSS THE SOUTH AS MENTIONED
IN PREVIOUS DISCUSSIONS SO WENT WITH -RA AND MENTION OF THUNDER
(AT TIMES) MOST OF THE NIGHT AT KBMG.

MORE WIDESPREAD RAIN WILL ARRIVE FRIDAY AS AN AREA OF LOW
PRESSURE MOVES IN. GUIDANCE IS STILL POINTING TO AT LEAST MVFR
CEILINGS AND/OR VISIBILITIES WITH THE EXCEPTION OF KLAF AS THEY
MAY BE TOO FAR NORTH WHERE SLIGHTLY DRIER AIR SHOULD KEEP
CEILINGS BETTER. THESE CONDITIONS WERE INCLUDED IN THE TAFS FOR
FRIDAY. THERE IS ALSO A WEAK CHANCE FOR THUNDER MAINLY SOUTH OF
THE I-70 CORRIDOR BUT DO NOT FEEL CONFIDENT ENOUGH AT THIS TIME TO
INCLUDE ANY MENTION AT THIS TIME.

&&

.IND WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
FLOOD WATCH THROUGH FRIDAY EVENING FOR INZ061>065-067>072.
