AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NORTHERN INDIANA
353 PM EDT MON JUL 13 2015
.SYNOPSIS...
ISSUED AT 349 PM EDT MON JUL 13 2015
SEVERE STORMS ARE EXPECTED TO DEVELOP EARLY THIS EVENING AND
CONTINUE THROUGH LATE TONIGHT. THE GREATEST THREAT WILL BE ALONG
AND SOUTH OF U.S. 30 IN INDIANA...BUT SEVERE WEATHER IS POSSIBLE
ACROSS THE ENTIRE FORECAST AREA. DAMAGING WINDS...LARGE
HAIL...AND HEAVY RAIN ARE ALL EXPECTED. BE PREPARED TO TAKE ACTION
IF A WARNING IS ISSUED FOR YOUR AREA.
&&
.SHORT TERM...(THIS EVENING THROUGH TUESDAY)
ISSUED AT 316 PM EDT MON JUL 13 2015
RAPID DESTABILIZATION HAS BEGUN ACROSS NORTHERN ILLINOIS AS EXPECTED
AT 18Z THIS AFTERNOON. THIS DESTABILIZATION WILL CONTINUE TO ADVECT
EASTWARD THROUGH THE AFTERNOON WITH THE WESTERN HALF OF OUR FORECAST
AREA INTO THE WARM SECTOR BY EARLY EVENING. 18Z DVN SPECIAL SOUNDING
SAMPLED NEARLY DRY ADIABATIC LAPSE RATES FROM H850 TO H500 AND
NEARLY 100 KNOTS OF FLOW ABOVE 300MB. WITH SURFACE TEMPERATURES IN
THE MID 80S AND DEWPOINTS IN THE UPPER 70S BENEATH THIS EML...EXPECT
EXTREME INSTABILITY OF 4000 TO 6000 J/KG BY 22Z. THIS INSTABILITY
COUPLED WITH DEEP LAYER SHEAR OF 55 TO 65 KNOTS WILL LEAD TO
EXPLOSIVE STORM DEVELOPMENT AND ORGANIZATION LATER THIS EVENING. HP
SUPERCELLS WILL BE THE PRIMARY STORM MODE FOR THE FIRST FEW HOURS
BEFORE STORMS CONGEAL INTO A FORWARD PROPAGATING MCS.
DURING THIS 22Z TO 02Z TIMEFRAME...SURFACE WINDS WILL REMAIN OUT OF
THE SSW WITH A STRENGTHENING WESTERLY LOW LEVEL JET. EXTREMELY LOW
LCLS COUPLED WITH THIS STRONG LOW LEVEL SHEAR WILL LEAD TO AN
ENHANCED TORNADIC RISK DURING THIS TIMEFRAME. ADDITIONALLY...A
STRONG TORNADO CANNOT BE RULED OUT...ESPECIALLY IF STRONGER 850 FLOW
(35 TO 40 KNOTS) FROM THE LATEST HRRR VERIFIES.
EACH RUN OF THE HRRR HAS ADVECTED THE WARM FRONT PROGRESSIVELY
FURTHER EAST...SO CANNOT RULE OUT A GREATER THREAT FURTHER NORTHEAST
THAN THE CURRENT AREA OF FOCUS WHICH IS ALONG AND SOUTH OF US 30 IN
INDIANA.
MOST OF THE CWA RECEIVED BETWEEN 1 AND 1.5 INCHES WITH THE ROUND OF
RAIN THIS MORNING. FLASH FLOODING APPEARS INCREASINGLY LIKELY THIS
EVENING WITH A VERY HIGH THETA E AIRMASS AND TRAINING STORMS
POSSIBLE. THEREFORE...WILL KEEP THE FLASH FLOOD WATCH IN EFFECT
THROUGH 06Z.
ONCE THESE STORMS MOVE THROUGH...ADDITIONAL STORMS ARE POSSIBLE LATE
TONIGHT AND INTO THE DAY TOMORROW AS THE FRONT DROPS SOUTH THROUGH
OUR AREA. EXPECT THE FRONT TO MOVE SOUTH OF OUR FORECAST AREA BEFORE
ENOUGH INSTABILITY DEVELOPS FOR SEVERE WEATHER WITHIN OUR CWA.
