AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE INDIANAPOLIS IN
214 PM EDT THU JUN 18 2015

.UPDATE...
THE LONG 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 NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY/...
ISSUED AT 214 PM EDT THU JUN 18 2015

A LARGE AREA OF UPPER LEVEL HIGH PRESSURE LOCATED OVER THE DESERT
SOUTHWEST WILL PUSH EASTWARD ACROSS THE SOUTHERN UNITED STATES
DURING THE PERIOD. THIS WILL RESULT IN FLOW VEERING FROM MORE
QUASI-ZONAL TO MORE NORTHWESTERLY AS THE SUBSEQUENT RIDGE PUSHES
INTO THE AREA TOWARDS THE END OF THE PERIOD. SEVERAL SHORT WAVES
WILL MOVE ACROSS CENTRAL INDIANA IN THIS FLOW...HELPING TO AID IN
THE UNSETTLED WEATHER PATTERN.

AT THE SURFACE...A FRONT OVER THE OHIO RIVER VALLEY SUNDAY NIGHT
WILL PUSH OFF TO THE EAST AS A SECONDARY FRONT MOVES IN FROM THE
NORTHWEST LATE MONDAY INTO TUESDAY. A LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL THEN
MOVE IN FROM THE UPPER MIDWEST. HOWEVER THE MODELS ARE NOT IN
AGREEMENT AS TO THE TRACK OF THE LOW AT THIS TIME...WITH THE EURO
KEEPING CENTRAL INDIANA DRIER STARTING WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH
THURSDAY. REGIONAL INITIALIZATION IS TRENDING MORE TOWARDS THE
GFS...WHICH CALLS FOR POPS THROUGH THE PERIOD. GFS LOOKS TO BE THE
BETTER SOLUTION AT THIS TIME...SO WILL NOT BE MAKING ANY CHANGES TO
THE INITIALIZATION.

SUPERBLEND TEMPERATURES LOOK GOOD THROUGH THE PERIOD WITH THE
AFTERNOON HIGHS IN THE MID TO UPPER 80S...WITH THE WARMEST
TEMPERATURES COMING ON THURSDAY TO END THE PERIOD. AT THIS
TIME...HEAT INDEX VALUES WILL HIT 100 DEGREES ACROSS MUCH OF SOUTH
CENTRAL INDIANA. OVERNIGHT LOWS WILL REMAIN STEADY IN THE UPPER 60S
TO LOW 70S.

&&

.AVIATION /DISCUSSION FOR 181800Z TAF ISSUANCE/...
ISSUED AT 1256 PM EDT THU JUN 18 2015

OUTSIDE OF CONVECTION...VFR CONDITIONS EXPECTED FOR 1ST HALF OF TAF
PERIOD...THEN MVFR.

LOW CLOUDS HAVE SCATTERED ALLOWING SUNSHINE...AND THIS HEATING IS
CREATING SCATTERED CONVECTION ACROSS ILLINOIS. CURRENT TRACK OF THIS
CONVECTION IS WEST OF KIND AND NEAR OR WEST OF KHUF/KLAF. HOWEVER IN
INCREASING INSTABILITY EXPECT ADDITIONAL SCATTERED CONVECTION TO
FORM THIS AFTERNOON.

SINCE BULK OF CONVECTION THAT IS HEADED TOWARD SITES IS NOT
ORGANIZED AM HESITANT TO GO ANYTHING HIGHER THAN VCTS THIS
AFTERNOON. WILL ADD TEMPO IF NECESSARY WHEN TRENDS BECOME CLEARER.

CONVECTION WILL WEAKEN THIS EVENING BUT UPPER LEVEL ENERGY WILL
CREATE MORE SHOWERS LATE EVENING INTO THE OVERNIGHT. THESE WILL
LIKELY LINGER INTO FRIDAY MORNING. WENT PREDOMINANT SHOWERS...WITH
MVFR CONDITIONS. THERE IS A CHANCE FOR IFR AROUND 12Z BUT CONFIDENCE
NOT HIGH ENOUGH TO ADD AT THIS TIME.

&&

.IND WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
NONE.
