AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE INDIANAPOLIS IN
1016 AM EST WED MAR 9 2016

.UPDATE...
THE NEAR TERM SECTION HAS BEEN UPDATED BELOW.

&&

.SYNOPSIS...
ISSUED AT 212 AM EST WED MAR 9 2016

WET WEATHER IS AHEAD FOR CENTRAL INDIANA. INDIANA WILL BE CAUGHT
BETWEEN HIGH PRESSURE OFF THE COAST OF THE CAROLINAS AND LOW
PRESSURE OVER TEXAS. THIS WILL RESULT IN A WARM AND MOIST
SOUTHERLY FLOW OF AIR TO CENTRAL INDIANA OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS
BRINGING RAIN SHOWERS.

THE RAINY PATTERN WILL CONTINUE INTO THE WEEKEND AS A FRONTAL
BOUNDARY STALLS OUT AND LINGERS IN THE OHIO VALLEY. THIS WILL
RESULT IN MORE CHANCES FOR RAIN...BUT KEEP TEMPERATURES ABOVE
SEASONAL NORMALS.

&&

.NEAR TERM /REST OF TODAY/...

ISSUED AT 1001 AM EST WED MAR 9 2016

0940Z UPDATE...A FEW ADJUSTMENTS WERE MADE TO MAINLY THE PRECIP
AND TIMING...AS WELL AS THE COVERAGE FOR THE AREA FOR THE REST OF
TODAY THROUGH EARLY THIS EVENING. BASED ON CURRENT OBSERVATIONS...
BOTH UPSTREAM OF THE NEXT WAVE OF RAIN FROM THE SOUTH SET TO
IMPACT THE FORECAST AREA AND CONSIDERING MOST OF THE CWA BEING
MOSTLY DRY AT THE MOMENT AS THE LAST OF THE EARLY MORNING SHOWERS
HAVE SINCE DEPARTED THE AREA. GUIDANCE IS HINTING AT A SUPPRESSION
OF THE PRECIPITATION FROM THE NORTH...WHICH MEANS 90-100 PERCENT
POPS ACROSS THE SOUTH...BUT LOWERED CHANCES TO LIKELY ACROSS THE
NORTHERN TIER OF COUNTIES FOR AT LEAST THE REST OF TODAY AND INTO
EARLY THIS EVENING. UPDATED GRIDS AND ZFP ALREADY OUT. THE
PREVIOUS DISCUSSION FOLLOWS.

SURFACE ANALYSIS EARLY THIS MORNING SHOWS A BERMUDA HIGH IN PLACE
OFF THE COAST OF THE CAROLINAS. LOW PRESSURE WAS FOUND NORTH OF
THE GREAT LAKES...EXTENDING A FRONTAL BOUNDARY SOUTH ACROSS IOWA
TO ANOTHER POORLY ORGANIZED SURFACE LOW IN TEXAS. RESULTANT FLOW
WAS WARM...MOIST SOUTHERLY AIR ARRIVING FROM THE GULF . RADAR
SHOWS A LARGE AREA OF RAIN ACROSS ARKANSAS...MISSOURI AND WESTERN
ILLINOIS...MAKING PROGRESS NORTHEAST AMID THE LOWER LEVEL FLOW.
DEW POINTS WERE HOLDING IN THE 40S WHILE TEMPS WERE HAVING TROUBLE
FALLING DUE TO ONGOING WARM AIR ADVECTION.

MAIN FORECAST CHALLENGE WILL BE RAIN.

MANY FAVORABLE FACTORS FOR RAIN TODAY. LET START WITH THE WITH THE
ONGOING RADAR TRENDS SHOWING PRECIP UPSTREAM MAKING DECENT
PROGRESS EASTWARD. FORECAST SOUNDINGS TODAY SHOW DEEP SATURATION
ARRIVING WITHIN THE COLUMN BY 18Z AND CONTINUING THROUGH THE
AFTERNOON. TIME HEIGHTS CONCUR...WITH EXCELLENT LIFT WHICH
CONTINUES INTO THE NIGHT. MODELS ALSO SHOWS A MODERATE SHORT WAVE
AMID THE SOUTHWEST FLOW ALOFT PUSHING ACROSS CENTRAL INDIANA
PROVIDING FORCING. 305K GFS ISENTROPIC SURFACE SHOWS A TONGUE OF
HIGH SPECIFIC HUMIDITIES...OVER 5 G/KG...STREAMING ACROSS INDIANA
AND THE OHIO VALLEY TODAY...WITH VALUES RISING TONIGHT. THUS WILL
RAISE POPS TO CATEGORICAL...WITH BEST CHANCES EXPECTED BY
AFTERNOON. GIVEN THE WARM AIR ADVECTION AND CLOUD COVER WILL TREND
HIGHS SLIGHTLY WARMER THAN MAV...AS THE WARM START AND A FEW DRY
HOURS MAY ALLOW TEMPS TO CREEP HIGHER LATE THIS MORNING BEFORE
EVAPORATIONAL COOLING TAKE PLACE WITH RAIN FALL.

&&

.SHORT TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT/...

ISSUED AT 212 AM EST WED MAR 9 2016

PLENTY OF RAINDROPS WILL BE FALLING ON OUR HEADS TONIGHT. MANY OF
THE SAME FEATURES THAT ARE IN PLAY TODAY WILL CONTINUE INTO THE
TONIGHT PERIOD....PROVIDING IDEAL CONDITIONS FOR RAIN. FORECAST
SOUNDINGS REMAIN SATURATED THROUGH THE EVENING HOURS...WITH PWATS
NEAR 1.5 INCHES...THAT/S PRETTY HIGHS. TIME HEIGHTS SHOWING DEEP
SATURATION WITH VERY FAVORABLE LIFT THAT CONTINUES INTO THURSDAY.
DYNAMICALLY ALOFT...THE MODELS CONTINUE TO SUGGEST A SERIES OF
WEAK SHORT WAVE PUSHING TOWARD INDIANA AMID THE SW FLOW ALOFT. BY
THURSDAY...A UPPER TROUGH LOOKS TO PUSH EAT TOWARD INDIANA FROM
THE CENTRAL PLAINS. THIS WILL CUT OFF THE DEEP UPPER LOW OVER TO
THE SOUTH AND SHUT DOWN THE FLOW OF SHORT WAVES...HOWEVER THE
TROUGH WILL PROVIDE IT/S OWN FORCING ON THURSDAY AS IT PASSES.
WITH THE WARM AND MOIST GULF FLOW IN PLACE AHEAD OF THIS
FEATURE...THIS ALL ADDS UP TO MORE RAIN AND WE ARE STILL ALL
IN...GOING WITH CATEGORICAL POPS TONIGHT AND THURSDAY. GIVEN THE
EXPECTED RAIN WILL TREND LOWS TONIGHT WARMER THAN MAVMOS AND HIGHS
THURSDAY COOLER THAN MAVMOS.

A BREAK SHOULD ARRIVE WITH THE PRECIP ON THURSDAY NIGHT AS THE
PREVIOUSLY MENTIONED UPPER SHORT WAVE IS EXPECTED TO PUSH A
SURFACE FRONT SOUTH OF INDIANA. THIS WILL CHANGE THE LOWER LEVEL
FLOW FROM MOIST AND SOUTHERLY TO COOLER AIR DRY NORTHEASTERLY FOR
A SHORT WHILE. FORECAST SOUNDINGS SHOW DRY LOWER LEVELS LATE
THURSDAY NIGHT...AND THIS CONTINUES THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT AND NORTH
AND NORTHEASTERLY SURFACE FLOW CONTINUES. THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY
REMAINS STALLED TO THE SOUTH AS SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE MOVES
THROUGH GREAT LAKES AND THE UPPER LOW REMAINS TEMPORARILY CUT OFF
OVER TEXAS. THUS WILL TREND TOWARD A DRY FORECAST LATE THURSDAY
NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT. GIVEN SOME ONGOING WEAK COLD AIR
ADVECTION GIVEN THE COOLER N-NE FLOW...WILL TREND TEMPS AT OR
BELOW MAVMOS FOR HIGHS AND LOWS.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY/...

ISSUED AT 212 AM EST WED MAR 9 2016

ENSEMBLES IN GOOD AGREEMENT WITH REGARDS TO THE LARGE SCALE PATTERN EARLY
IN THE EXTENDED PERIOD. SOUTHERN PLAINS UPPER LOW WILL BE IN THE PROCESS OF
EJECTING NORTHEAST ACROSS THE OHIO VALLEY DURING THE WEEKEND...FOLLOWED BY
A TRAILING DISTURBANCE PASSING THROUGH THE AREA AROUND MONDAY. WILL KEEP
POPS IN THE FORECAST THROUGH MONDAY TO COVER THESE FEATURES.

LARGE TIMING DIFFERENCES EXIST WITH RESPECT TO THE NEXT UPPER TROUGH. THE
FASTEST MEMBERS BRING THIS SYSTEM INTO THE MIDWEST AS EARLY AS NEXT
TUESDAY...WHILE MOST OF THE OTHERS ARE FARTHER WEST. WILL GO WITH A DRY
FORECAST ON TUESDAY FOR NOW AND MONITOR TRENDS.
