Area forecast discussion, May 30, 4:30 PM EDT, 54 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE INDIANAPOLIS IN 430 PM EDT SAT MAY 30 2015 .UPDATE... THE AVIATION SECTION HAS BEEN UPDATED BELOW. && .SYNOPSIS... ISSUED AT 312 PM EDT SAT MAY 30 2015 A COLD FRONT WILL DROP SOUTHEAST INTO CENTRAL INDIANA TONIGHT. MEANWHILE...A WAVE OF LOW PRESSURE WILL RIPPLE NORTHEAST ALONG THE FRONT AND NEAR THE INTERSTATE 70 CORRIDOR OVERNIGHT. THIS WILL TEMPORARILY SLOW THE FRONT DOWN BEFORE IT MOVES SOUTH OF THE OHIO RIVER ON SUNDAY. THE WAVE OF LOW PRESSURE ALONG WITH AN UNSTABLE AND VERY MOIST ATMOSPHERE WILL RESULT IN WIDESPREAD SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS TONIGHT...ESPECIALLY NORTH OF 70. THE SHOWERS WILL BE ENDING FROM SOUTHWEST TO NORTHEAST ON SUNDAY AND WILL BE REPLACED WITH DRY AND MUCH COOLER WEATHER UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF HIGH PRESSURE. FOLLOWING AFTERNOON HIGHS ONLY IN THE 60S ON SUNDAY...TEMPERATURES WILL REBOUND TO THE UPPER 70S AND LOWER 80S BY WEDNESDAY AS AN UPPER RIDGE BUILDS IN FROM THE SOUTHWESTERN UNITED STATES. THE NEXT CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS WILL NOT BE UNTIL NEXT WEEKEND AS A LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM NAVIGATES EAST ACROSS THE GREAT LAKES. && .NEAR TERM /TONIGHT/... ISSUED AT 312 PM EDT SAT MAY 30 2015 ALL EYES TONIGHT WILL BE ON THUNDERSTORMS INCLUDING HEAVY RAIN...AND TO A LESSER EXTENT...SEVERE POTENTIAL. AFTERNOON KIND-88D WAS LIT UP WITH STORMS LIFTING NORTHEAST OVER THE OHIO AND TENNESSEE VALLEYS...INCLUDING CENTRAL INDIANA. THE ACTIVITY WAS IN ADVANCE OF A COLD FRONT OVER NORTHERN ILLINOIS AND A WAVE ACROSS SOUTHEASTERN MISSOURI AND NORTHEASTERN ARKANSAS. MODELS ARE SIMILAR IN BRINGING THE JUST MENTIONED WAVE NORTHEAST TONIGHT ALONG A COLD FRONT AND TRACK CLOSE TO THE INTERSTATE 70 CORRIDOR. THE WAVE WILL HOLD UP THE FRONT BEFORE IT SLIDES SOUTHEAST OF THE OHIO RIVER ON SUNDAY. THE FRONT AND WAVE WILL INTERACT WITH PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES OF NEAR 2 INCHES... AND EARLY EVENING MIXED LAYER CAPES FROM 500 TO 1000 J/KG. MEANWHILE...A 35 KNOT LOW LEVEL JET WILL NOSE INTO SOUTHERN INDIANA. THIS SHOULD TRIGGER NUMEROUS THUNDERSTORMS. 12Z MODELS AND WATER PREDICTION CENTER DAY1 EXCESSIVE RAINFALL GRAPHIC ALL SUGGEST AREAS NORTH OF THE FRONT COULD SEE OVER 2 INCHES OF RAIN TONIGHT. 3 HOUR FLASH FLOOD GUIDANCE IN THIS AREA IS MOSTLY 3 INCHES OR MORE. HOWEVER...WITH THUNDERSTORMS ALREADY INCREASING IN COVERAGE...FLOOD WATCH DOES NOT LOOK LIKE A BAD IDEA. AFTER COORDINATING WITH ADJACENT OFFICES...WILL GO WITH A FLOOD WATCH ROUGHLY ALONG AND NORTH OF I-70 THROUGH 15Z SUNDAY. WITH SUFFICIENT INSTABILITY ACROSS THE AREA AND THE 35 KNOT LOW LEVEL JET NOSING INTO SOUTHERN INDIANA...SLIGHT RISK OF MAINLY DAMAGING WINDS CONTINUES TO LOOK OK FOR THE EVENING HOURS. INSTABILITY WANES ENOUGH OVERNIGHT TO PULL THUNDER. 12Z MOS CLOSE ON OVERNIGHT LOWS AND APPEARS A BLEND WILL DO THE TRICK. && .SHORT TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/... ISSUED AT 312 PM EDT SAT MAY 30 2015 MAIN FOCUS FOR THE SHORT TERM WILL BE INITIALLY ON SHOWER CHANCES ON SUNDAY FOLLOWED BY TEMPERATURES...AS THE PREVIOUSLY DISCUSSED WAVE EXITS TO THE NORTHEAST...AND THE FRONT TO THE SOUTH...ON SUNDAY. WITH MODELS AGREEING THAT THE LOW WILL BE NEAR NEW CASTLE AT 12Z SUNDAY AND THEN NORTH CENTRAL OHIO BY 18Z. SO...THIS WOULD SUGGEST CAT POPS NORTHEAST TAPERING TO SLIGHT CHANCE POPS SOUTHWEST FOR THE MORNING HOURS AND DECREASING POPS AS THE DAY GOES ON. THE REST OF THE SHORT TERM LOOKS DRY AS SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS OVER THE GREAT LAKES. HOWEVER...WITH COLUMN REMAINING MOIST BELOW 700 MILLIBARS AND AN UPPER LOW OVER THE GREAT LAKES ON MONDAY...THINK THE CLOUDS WILL HANG AROUND UNTIL TUESDAY...WHEN SOME BREAKS LOOK LIKELY. 12Z MOS TEMPERATURES ARE PRETTY CLOSE AND REPRESENT CHANGING AIRMASS AND CLOUD COVER NICELY. SO...A BLEND SHOULD DO. && .LONG TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY/... ISSUED AT 239 PM EDT SAT MAY 30 2015 A CUTOFF UPPER LOW OVER THE SOUTHEASTERN U.S. WILL BE THE PREDOMINANT FEATURE THROUGH THE LONG TERM. AN UPPER RIDGE RIDING OVER THIS WILL KEEP CENTRAL INDIANA DRY FOR THE MOST PART. THERE IS SOME DISAGREEMENT AMONGST THE MODELS AS TO HOW FAR SOUTH THE LOW WILL SET UP AND THIS WILL HAVE A BEARING ON HOW FAR NORTH PRECIPITATION CHANCES CAN GET IN THE LATTER PART OF THE WEEK. FOR NOW ACCEPTING INITIALIZATION WITH MINOR QUALITY CONTROL ADJUSTMENTS SEEMED THE WAY TO GO...WHICH BRINGS IN LOW THUNDERSTORM CHANCES FRIDAY THROUGH SATURDAY. ABOVE NORMAL HIGHS IN THE 80S CAN BE EXPECTED FROM THURSDAY ON. && .AVIATION /DISCUSSION FOR 302100Z TAF UPDATE/... ISSUED AT 430 PM EDT SAT MAY 30 2015 NOT MUCH CHANGE NEEDED AS FOCUS WILL BE ON SCATTERED CONVECTION FOR THE NEXT SEVERAL HOURS. WILL MAINTAIN VCTS WORDING INTO THE EVENING AND RESTRUCTURE TEMPO TSRA AT ALL SITES THROUGH 01-02Z WITH RAIN FOLLOWING THEREAFTER. SUB-IFR CONDITIONS CAN BE EXPECTED WITHIN ANY THUNDERSTORM THAT PASSES OVER A TERMINAL. 18Z DISCUSSION FOLLOWS. SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS CAN BE EXPECTED AT THE SITES OFF AND ON THROUGH THE AFTERNOON/EVENING HOURS. OUTSIDE OF STORMS MAINLY VFR CONDITIONS...WITH IFR OR LOWER AT TIMES IN THE STORMS. CHANCES FOR SHOWERS AND STORMS WILL CONTINUE UNTIL AFTER THE SYSTEM MOVES THROUGH DURING THE OVERNIGHT HOURS. HIGH CONFIDENCE ON SCATTERED COVERAGE OF THUNDERSTORMS DURING THE NEXT 6 HOURS...WITH LESSER CONFIDENCE THAT THERE WILL STILL BE THUNDER LATER TONIGHT AND NOT JUST RAIN. WITH THE SURFACE LOW MOVING OVER THE SITES OVERNIGHT ALSO EXPECT TO SEE CEILINGS DROP AND COULD HAVE SOME VISIBILITY ISSUES AS WELL. LOW CEILINGS LIKELY TO PERSIST THROUGH AT LEAST MIDDAY SUNDAY. && .IND WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
