AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE INDIANAPOLIS IN
1235 PM EDT THU APR 7 2016

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

&&

.SYNOPSIS...
ISSUED AT 346 AM EDT THU APR 7 2016

AN UPPER TROUGH OVER THE EASTERN U.S. WILL KEEP TEMPERATURES BELOW
NORMAL FOR THE NEXT FEW DAYS WITH OFF AND ON CHANCES FOR
PRECIPITATION. TEMPERATURES WARM A LITTLE FOR THE WORK WEEK BUT
STILL REMAIN MOSTLY BELOW NORMAL. ANOTHER FRONTAL SYSTEM WILL
BRING RAIN SUNDAY THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT AND CHANCES FOR
THUNDERSTORMS MONDAY AND MONDAY NIGHT.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UPDATE FOR TODAY/...

ISSUED AT 928 AM EDT THU APR 7 2016

NO SUBSTANTIAL CHANGES MADE. THERE ARE FAIRLY LARGE CLEAR SKY
AREAS OVER ILLINOIS AT THIS TIME BUT UNDER COLD CYCLONIC FLOW
THESE SHOULD FILL IN A FAIR AMOUNT AS DAY PROGRESSES. BOTTOM LINE
FOR INDIANA IS THAT SOME WESTERN COUNTIES MAY EXPERIENCE A MIX OF
SUN AND CLOUD FOR A FEW HOURS THIS MORNING BUT THEN MOSTLY CLOUDY
CONDITIONS WILL TAKE OVER.

SCATTERED LIGHT RAIN SHOWERS ARE EMBEDDED WITHIN THIS CYCLONIC
FLOW AND LIKELY WILL INCREASE IN COVERAGE AS THE DAYTIME HEATING
CONTINUES.

AS FOR DAYTIME HEATING...THERE WILL NOT BE MUCH OF THAT WITH
CLOUDY SKIES AND OCCASIONAL SHOWERS KEEPING THINGS DAMP SO MAXS OF
UPPER 40S TO LOWER 50S APPEAR ON TARGET.

WINDS REMAIN GUSTY IN THIS PATTERN AND WITH DAYTIME HEATING WILL
STRENGTHEN A BIT MORE OVER CURRENT VALUES.

&&

.SHORT TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/...

ISSUED AT 346 AM EDT THU APR 7 2016

FORECAST FOCUS IS ON TEMPERATURES AND PRECIP CHANCES ALONG WITH
PRECIP TYPE THROUGH SATURDAY. MODELS ARE IN DECENT AGREEMENT AND
GENERALLY USED A CONSENSUS.

TONIGHT MODELS ARE IN AGREEMENT THAT FORCING WILL BE SPLIT AROUND
INDIANA DURING THE TONIGHT PERIOD ALLOWING A BRIEF BREAK FROM
PRECIPITATION. TEMPERATURES SHOULD FALL NEAR OR BELOW FREEZING IN
THE NORTH AND EASTERN COUNTIES AND ISSUED A FREEZE WATCH IN THOSE
PLACES WHERE THE GROWING SEASON HAS STARTED. IN THE SOUTH AND
SOUTHWEST THOUGH WARM ADVECTION WILL BEGIN AND CLOUDS WILL
INCREASE LATE DURING THE OVERNIGHT AND THIS COULD KEEP LOW ABOVE
FREEZING SO LEFT THAT AREA OUT OF THE HEADLINE.

FRIDAY ANOTHER SURFACE LOW WILL MOVE SOUTHEAST FROM WISCONSIN
THROUGH NORTHEAST INDIANA. THIS WILL PROVIDE FORCING FOR CHANCES
FOR A MIX OF RAIN AND SNOW IN THE NORTH IN THE MORNING AND RAIN
SOUTH BEFORE TEMPERATURES WARM ENOUGH FOR RAIN EVERYWHERE IN THE
AFTERNOON. COLD AIR ALOFT WILL ADVECT IN FOR THE AFTERNOON
BRINGING STEEP LAPSE RATES AND A SLIGHT CHANCE FOR THUNDERSTORMS.
BEHIND THE SYSTEM WILL STILL SEE SOME WRAPAROUND SNOW SHOWERS
EARLY FRIDAY NIGHT...AND THE COLD ADVECTION ON THE BACK SIDE OF
THE LOW WILL ALLOW TEMPERATURES TO DROP BACK INTO THE MID TO UPPER
20S.

BY SATURDAY MORNING PRECIP SHOULD BE OVER BUT THE COLD ADVECTION
WILL KEEP HIGHS IN THE UPPER 30S TO LOWER 40S. SATURDAY NIGHT
AGAIN LOOKS LIKE LOW TEMPERATURES WILL BE IN THE MID 20S TO AROUND
FREEZING.

&&

.LONG TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...

ISSUED AT 204 AM EDT THU APR 7 2016

ECMWF SUGGESTS HIGH PRESSURE DEPARTING THE OHIO VALLEY ON SUNDAY
AS A WARM FRONT APPROACHES FROM THE SOUTHWEST. AMPLE SOUTHERLY
FLOW ASSOCIATED WITH THE FRONT SUGGEST GOOD FORCING AND
SUPERBLENDS POPS APPEAR REASONABLE. AS LOW PRESSURE THEN PUSHES
THROUGH THE GREAT LAKES ON MONDAY...ECMWF SUGGEST ANOTHER COLD
FRONT GETTING DRAGGED ACROSS CENTRAL INDIANA. ONCE AGAIN GOOD
FORCING AND MOISTURE LOOK TO BE IN PLACE TO ALLOW FOR RAIN
CHANCES.

HIGH PRESSURE IN THE WAKE OF THE COLD FRONT SHOULD PROVIDE DRY
WEATHER FOR THE MIDDLE OF THE NEXT WORK WEEK...HOWEVER
TEMPERATURES SHOULD REMAIN BELOW NORMALS AS THE HIGH PRESSURE
SYSTEM ARRIVES FROM CANADA AND IS A COOL AIR MASS.

&&

.AVIATION /DISCUSSION FOR THE 071800Z TAFS/...
ISSUED AT 1235 PM EDT THU APR 7 2016

CEILINGS GENERALLY 025-040 EXPECTED THROUGH LATE THIS EVENING AT THE
TERMINALS...ALTHOUGH THE LOWER MVFR CEILINGS MAY TEND TO LIFT WITH TIME
THIS AFTERNOON DUE TO THE DIURNAL WARMING OF THE BOUNDARY LAYER. SCATTERED
LIGHT SHOWERS ARE POSSIBLE THROUGH SUNSET UNDER THE COLD UPPER TROUGH...BUT
AT THIS TIME ANY IMPACTS TO CEILING OR VISIBILITY LOOK TO BE BRIEF.

FREQUENT SURFACE GUSTS AROUND 25 KTS FROM 290-310 DEGREES WILL END WITH
SUNSET...WITH SURFACE WINDS SETTLING TO 300-330 DEGREES AT 7-11 KTS AFTER
080100Z.
