AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NORTHERN INDIANA
725 PM EDT TUE MAR 29 2016

.SYNOPSIS...
ISSUED AT 707 PM EDT TUE MAR 29 2016

FAIR WEATHER WILL CONTINUE TONIGHT AND WEDNESDAY MORNING AS A DRY
AIRMASS ASSOCIATED WITH DEPARTING HIGH PRESSURE CONTINUES TO
DOMINATE OUR AREA. LOW PRESSURE WILL MOVE FROM COLORADO TONIGHT
TO THE PLAINS WEDNESDAY, AND ACROSS THE UPPER GREAT LAKES
THURSDAY BRINGING SHOWERS AND A CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS TO OUR
AREA. UNSEASONABLY COLD AIR WILL SPREAD INTO OUR AREA IN THE WAKE
OF THIS SYSTEM OVER THE WEEKEND. LOWS TONIGHT WILL BE IN THE LOWER
TO MIDDLE 30S WITH HIGHS WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY IN THE 60S.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(THIS EVENING THROUGH WEDNESDAY)
ISSUED AT 300 PM EDT TUE MAR 29 2016

LOW LEVEL ANTICYCLONE OVERHEAD THIS AFTERNOON WILL GRADUALLY SHIFT
OFF TO THE EAST BY EARLY WEDNESDAY. SHORTWAVE RIDGING ALOFT AND
STABLE/DRY AIR ASSOCIATED WITH SFC HIGH WILL ALLOW QUIET/MAINLY
CLEAR CONDITIONS TO PERSIST INTO TONIGHT. AS FOR TEMPS...CONTINUED
TO FAVOR QUICK DROP THIS EVENING AND COOLER GUIDANCE FOR LOWS
GIVEN OPTIMAL RADIATIONAL COOLING UNTIL THE EARLY OVERNIGHT WHEN
WARM ADVECTION BEGINS TO KICK IN.

AN UPPER LOW OVER THE GREAT BASIN/ROCKIES WILL OPEN EASTWARD INTO
THE CENTRAL HIGH PLAINS ON WEDNESDAY...WITH SFC LOW PRESSURE
EMERGING OVER EASTERN NEBRASKA BY LATER IN THE DAY. WARMER AIR WILL
ADVECT IN LOCALLY AS SOUTHERLY FLOW INCREASES IN ADVANCE OF THIS
SYSTEM. INCREASING CLOUDS AND RENEWED RAIN CHANCES WILL ALSO RESULT
BY MID-LATE AFTERNOON GIVEN STRONG LOW LEVEL THETA-E ADVECTION
WITHIN RAMPING LLJ AND WEAK UPPER DIFFLUENCE/HEIGHT FALL OVERSPREAD.
INCREASED POPS A BIT BUT HELD SHY OF LIKELY GIVEN LACKING LARGE
SCALE FORCING AND LINGERING TIMING DIFFERENCES WITHIN 12Z MODEL
SUITE. ALSO CANNOT COMPLETELY RULE OUT A RUMBLE OF THUNDER INTO
AREAS WEST OF INTERSTATE 69 LATE IN THE DAY AS GUIDANCE CONTINUES TO
SUGGEST SOME LIMITED ELEVATED INSTABILITY.

&&

.LONG TERM...(WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY)
ISSUED AT 300 PM EDT TUE MAR 29 2016

AN ACTIVE AND INTERESTING LONG TERM PERIOD WITH UP AND DOWN TEMPS
ALONG WITH PRECIPITATION CHANCES RANGING FROM POTENTIAL SEVERE
THUNDERSTORMS TO SNOWFALL.

INITIAL FOCUS REMAINS ON WEDNESDAY NIGHT AND THURSDAY WITH
THUNDERSTORM CHANCES AND SEVERE POTENTIAL. 12Z RUN OF NAM12
CONTINUES TO BE HIGHLY AGGRESSIVE WITH LOW LEVEL MOISTURE AND
INSTABILITY PARAMETERS FOR THURSDAY AFTERNOON. MUCAPES NOW ON ORDER
OF 1500-2000 J/KG WITH MAX VALUES AROUND 2500 J/KG IMMEDIATELY AHEAD
OF COLD FRONT IN OUR SOUTHWEST. GFS REMAINS MORE CONSERVATIVE WITH
VALUES BETWEEN 500-1000 J/KG. BOTH MODELS SHOWING MORE THAN ENOUGH
SHEAR...40 KNOTS 0-3 KM...AND IT WILL BE THE AMOUNT OF INSTABILITY
THAT ULTIMATELY DETERMINES SEVERE POTENTIAL. QUICK LOOK AT 12Z ECMWF
AND GEM SUPPORTS LOWER END INSTABILITY CLOSER TO GFS BUT GEM BETWEEN
1000 AND 1500 J/KG. DESTABILIZATION WILL ULTIMATELY DEPEND ON HOW
MUCH CLEARING TAKES PLACE LATE THURSDAY MORNING INTO EARLY AFTERNOON
IN WARM SECTOR BETWEEN WARM AIR ADVECTION PRECIPITATION WED NIGHT
AND COLD FRONTAL CONVECTION THURSDAY AFTERNOON. WITH UNCERTAINTY AND
MODEL DIFFERENCES WILL CONTINUE TO RIDE THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD
APPROACH WITH THUNDER CHANCES AND MENTION IN HAZARDOUS WEATHER
OUTLOOK. ISOLATED SEVERE CERTAINLY POSSIBLE EVEN WITH LOWER END
INSTABILITY GIVEN SHEAR VALUES. IF CLEARING INDEED DEVELOPS...HIGH
TEMPS THURSDAY AFTERNOON WILL MAKE A RUN FOR THE LOWER 70S.

MUCH COLDER AIR WILL INVADE POST FRONTAL THURSDAY NIGHT. ANY
LINGERING PCPN COULD BE A MIX OF RAIN OR SNOW IN THE NORTH GOING
INTO FRIDAY MORNING. DELTA T VALUES OVER LAKE INITIALLY LOW WITH
INITIAL COLD SURGE SO NOT EXPECTING A BIG LAKE RESPONSE BEHIND THIS
WAVE. THINGS COULD POTENTIALLY CHANGE INTO THE WEEKEND AS CLIPPER
SYSTEM MOVES THROUGH THE UPPER GREAT LAKES AND DRIVES A SECONDARY
COLD FRONT THROUGH OUR AREA. DELTA T VALUES BEHIND THIS WAVE CLIMB
INTO MIDDLE TEENS AND WITH ANY SYNOPTIC MOISTURE WE COULD EASILY SEE
SOME LAKE EFFECT SNOW SHOWERS LATER SATURDAY INTO SUNDAY.

YET ANOTHER SPRING CLIPPER SYSTEM EXPECTED EARLY NEXT WEEK WITH
MODEL DIFFERENCES ON TRACK. STRONG THERMAL GRADIENT APPEARS LIKELY
AND 12Z GFS HAS SFC TEMPS AROUND FREEZING MONDAY IN OUR NORTHEAST
WITH TEMPS AROUND 60 IN OUR SOUTHWEST. PCPN TYPE AND ACTUAL SFC
TEMPS NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE TO IRON OUT IN THIS TIME RANGE SO ACCEPTANCE
OF MODEL BLENDS FOR NOW. ANOTHER SHOT OF VERY COLD AIR LOOKS TO
FOLLOW THIS WAVE WITH UP AND DOWN TREND LOOKING LIKELY THROUGH
WEEK 2.

&&

.AVIATION...(FOR THE 00Z TAFS THROUGH 00Z WEDNESDAY EVENING)
ISSUED AT 707 PM EDT TUE MAR 29 2016

VFR CONDITIONS SHOULD PERSIST OVERNIGHT AND WED MORNING AS DRY
AIRMASS ASSOCIATED WITH DEPARTING HIGH PRESSURE CONTINUES TO
DOMINATE WHILE SE-S RETURN FLOW GRDLY STRENGTHENS. LOW PRESSURE
WILL MOVE SLOWLY EAST FROM ERN CO TONIGHT TO ERN NEB WED EVE. GULF
MOISTURE STREAMING NNE AHEAD OF THIS SYSTEM SHOULD RESULT IN CIGS
LOWERING TO LOW VFR OR MVFR BY WED EVE WITH SCT SHRA SPREADING
ACROSS THE AREA. A FEW TS ALSO PSBL ACROSS THE AREA LATE IN THE
PERIOD BUT COVERAGE EXPECTED TO BE TOO LOW TO MENTION IN TAFS.
SOUTHERLY WINDS WILL CONT TO INCREASE WED AS THE GRADIENT AND
DIURNAL MIXING STRENGTHEN WITH GUSTS EXPECTED IN THE 25-30KT
RANGE IN THE AFTN. FLIGHT CONDITIONS WILL CONTINUE TO DETERIORATE
WED NGT/THURSDAY AS THIS SYSTEM LIFTS NE ACROSS THE UPR GRTLKS.
