AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NORTHERN INDIANA
635 AM EST FRI JAN 9 2015

.SYNOPSIS...
ISSUED AT 428 AM EST FRI JAN 9 2015

A REINFORCING BLAST OF ARCTIC AIR WILL MOVE IN TODAY...KEEPING
AFTERNOON HIGHS IN THE SINGLE DIGITS ABOVE ZERO FOR AREAS NOT
SHELTERED BY LAKE EFFECT CLOUD COVER. GUSTY WINDS WILL CAUSE
BLOWING AND DRIFTING OF THE FRESH POWDERY SNOW WITH LAKE EFFECT
SNOW SHOWERS ADDING TO TRAVEL ISSUES THIS MORNING. WIND CHILLS OF
15 TO 25 BELOW ZERO WILL CONTINUE THROUGH SATURDAY MORNING.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(TODAY AND TONIGHT)
ISSUED AT 428 AM EST FRI JAN 9 2015

ARCTIC FRONT WAS MOVG THROUGH ERN PORTIONS OF THE CWA THIS
MORNING. WINDS DIMINISHING SOME BEHIND THE FRONT BUT STILL
SUFFICIENT TO CAUSE CONSIDERABLE BLOWING AND DRIFTING SNOW. THIS
COMBINED WITH CONTG SNOW SHOWER ACTIVITY WARRANTS KEEPING WINTER
STORM WARNING/WINTER WX ADVISORY IN PLACE FOR PORTIONS OF TODAY.
LAKE EFFECT SNOW ACCUMULATIONS SHOULD BE LIMITED BY CROSS LAKE
FLOW AND INVERSION HEIGHTS BLO 5KFT... EXPECTING AN ADDITIONAL
1-2INCHES ACROSS SRN MI ZONES... WITH LESS THAN AN INCH IN
ADJACENT INDIANA/OH COUNTIES.

ADDED A WIND CHILL ADVISORY TO THE INDIANA/OHIO COUNTIES FOR TODAY
AND MICHIGAN ZONES FOR TONIGHT AS BITTER COLD AIR ONCE AGAIN INVADES
THE AREA. LAKE MICHIGAN CLOUD PLUME SHOULD LIMIT TEMPERATURE FALLS
ACROSS FAR NRN PORTIONS OF THE AREA TODAY... BUT COLDER AIR WILL
ADVECT INTO THAT AREA TONIGHT AS WINDS BACK TO THE SW WITH PASSAGE
OF THE SFC RIDGE. NEW SNOWFALL OVER THE PAST 12HRS WILL ENHANCE
RADIATIONAL COOLING TONIGHT... ESPECIALLY OVER NRN INDIANA AND NW OH
AS SKIES CLEAR. CAA TODAY WILL CAUSE TEMPS TO FALL SLOWLY INTO THE
SINGLE DIGITS TODAY... WITH LOWS TONIGHT FROM -5 TO -10. THESE
BITTER COLD TEMPS COMBINED WITH A MODEST SWLY GRADIENT WILL PUSH
WIND CHILLS SOLIDLY INTO ADVISORY CRITERIA... PERHAPS BRIEFLY
REACHING WARNING CRITERIA IN PORTIONS OF THE AREA EARLY SATURDAY
MORNING.

&&

.LONG TERM...(SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY)
ISSUED AT 428 AM EST FRI JAN 9 2015

PERIOD WILL START OUT WITH WIND CHILL ADVISORY AS WINDS REMAIN ON
THE BRISK SIDE AND BELOW ZERO AIR TEMPS WILL TAKE SOME TIME TO WARM
RESULTING IN WIND CHILLS IN THE 15 TO 25 BELOW ZERO RANGE.
CONDITIONS IMPROVE SUFFICIENTLY BY AFTERNOON TO ALLOW THE ADVISORY
TO EXPIRE WITH JUST A COLD DAY IN STORE. BIT OF LAKE EFFECT SNOW
SHOWER ACTIVITY WILL LINGER MAINLY NORTH OF THE TOLL ROAD. LITTLE OR
NO ACCUMULATION IS EXPECTED AS INVERSION HGTS WILL BE CRASHING AND
MSTR WILL BEGIN TO WANE.

A BRIEF BREATHER IS IN STORE FOR THE AREA INTO SUNDAY BEFORE THE
NEXT WAVE...CURRENTLY LOCATED OVER NORTHERN MEXICO WILL GET PICKED
UP BY ANOTHER WEAK WAVE APPROACHING THE CALIFORNIA COAST.
POSITIONING OF THE WAVE WOULD SUGGEST IT SHOULD BE ABLE TO PICK UP
AT LEAST SOME MSTR FROM THE GULF AS IT WORKS NE TOWARDS THE REGION.
NORTHWEST EXTENT OF PRECIP WITH THIS FEATURE STILL A BIT UNCERTAIN
BUT EVEN THE EURO MODEL THAT WAS A BIT MORE SUPPRESSED ON THE 12Z
THU RUN WAS NOW A BIT FURTHER NW WITH QPF FIELDS. AS SUCH HAVE
BLENDED WITH SURROUNDING SITES AND INTRODUCED LOW END LIKELY POPS IN
SE AREAS WITH QUICK TAPER TO CHANCE INTO NW INDIANA/SW MICHIGAN.
DOESN'T APPEAR TO BE A BIG SNOW MAKER BUT 1 TO 2 TENTHS QPF STILL
MAY YIELD A FEW INCHES OF SNOW. A FEW MODELS SUGGEST SOME POTENTIAL
FOR A TOUCH OF SLEET AS 850 MB TEMPS TRY TO APPROACH NEAR OR JUST
ABOVE 0 DEGREES. MAJORITY STILL LEAN AGAINST THIS SO HAVE KEPT
SIMPLE STILL BEING A FEW DAYS OUT AND LEFT AS SNOW FOR NOW. IF MORE
NW TRACK OCCURS TO THE SYSTEM...THEN COULD BECOME MORE OF AN ISSUE.

ONCE THIS SYSTEM PASSES BY...QUIET END TO THE EXTENDED LOOKS TO BE
IN ORDER AS HIGH PRESSURE TRIES TO MAINTAIN HOLD OF THE REGION. A
DISTURBANCE LOOKS TO MOVE THROUGH THE FLOW TOWARDS THE END OF THE
PERIOD WITH MAIN EFFECTS REMAINING ACROSS THE NORTHERN GREAT LAKES.
AS A RESULT HAVE LEFT THE AREA DRY WITH MORE TOLERABLE BUT STILL
BELOW NORMAL TEMPERATURES.

&&

.AVIATION...(FOR THE 12Z TAFS THROUGH 12Z SATURDAY MORNING)
ISSUED AT 630 AM EST FRI JAN 9 2015

SNOW HAS ENDED AND LOW CLOUDS SCATTERED OUT AT FWA BEHIND CDFNT
EARLY THIS MORNING. STILL SOME LOW CIGS AND -SHSN UPSTREAM SO
EXPECT OCNL MVFR CONDITIONS THERE THIS MORNING. SBN ENGULFED IN
LAKE EFFECT PLUME. ALTHOUGH INVERSION BASE IS LOW LIMITING
INTENSITY OF SNOW BANDS... SNOWFALL SUFFICIENT TO CAUSE IFR
CONDITIONS FM BEH-SBN-GSH. EXPECT VSBYS TO GRADUALLY IMPROVE AT SBN
THROUGH THE DAY AS WINDS BACK SLIGHTLY... BUT ENOUGH WESTERLY
COMPONENT TO WINDS EXPECTED TONIGHT TO HANG ONTO MVFR CIGS IN THE
FCST THERE THROUGH THE PERIOD.
