Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Northern Indiana
345 AM EDT FRI MAY 13 2016

.SYNOPSIS...
Issued at 345 AM EDT Fri May 13 2016

High pressure will move across the area today providing fair
weather with highs in the 60s. A cold front will drop rapidly
southeast from the upper midwest and cross our area tonight...
accompanied by showers and possibly a few thunderstorms.
a chilly airmass will move in behind this front... with lows
tonight in the 40s... and in the 30s saturday night and sunday
night. Highs Saturday will be in the upper 40s and lower 50s...
with highs Sunday in the lower to middle 50s.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(Today through Saturday night)
Issued at 345 AM EDT Fri May 13 2016

Ridging will move rapidly east across the area today providing fair
wx. Some lingering low level moisture should support sct-bkn
cu/strato cu this morning, with incrsg mid/high clouds from the
nw this aftn as a strong shrtwv drops se across the upper
midwest. Some waa will dvlp late in the day, but cool post-frontal
airmass should result in highs about 10F cooler than yday, mainly
in the 60s.

Strong forcing/lift will accompany digging shrtwv/cdfnt movg
through the area tonight which combined with strong moisture
return via a 40-50kt swly llj should support a band of showers
moving across the cwa with wk elevated instability psbly allowing
a few tstms to occur as well.

Unseasonably cool temps will overspread the area behind this
front. After overnight lows in the m40s, highs Saturday only
expected in the u40s/l50s with cold air aloft supporting
considerable strato cu. Deep sfc based mixing will provide breezy
conditions as well with winds gusting around 30mph adding to the
chill. Strato cu should grdly diminish Saturday night but gradient
expected to be sufficient to maintain some mixing so "warmer" mav
mins in the m-u30s preferred over few degree colder met. Patchy
frost not out of the question but given the uncertainty, still
think it's too early to add to the fcst.

&&

.LONG TERM...(Sunday through Thursday)
Issued at 345 AM EDT Fri May 13 2016

Low level thermal trof will move slowly east Sunday allowing for a
little warmer highs in the l-m50s. Wk waa will cont Sunday night
but decreasing gradient and prbly less strato cu should allow for
better radiational cooling allowing temps to fall back into the
m-u30s. Sfc high expected to pass by to the south maintaining wk
gradient winds overnight so again frost development questionable.
Influence of sfc high should cont to provide fair wx Monday with
a slow warming trend as swly winds dvlp.

Medium range models over the past 24hrs have trended toward
maintaining upr level low/trof over ern canada/conus much longer
next week. While trof still expected to move from the ern pacific into
the wrn conus this weekend, models now indicating that shrtwv's
emanating from it will be suppressed farther south by stronger
nrn stream flow across the grtlks/oh valley. best chance of rain
is Tue due to combination of shrtwv dropping se across the grtlks
along with second system movg east across the lwr ms valley with
fair wx in the wake of these shrtwvs wed-thu. For now maintained
slight chc pops days6-7 for continuity's sake, but if model trends
hold, will prbly be able to drop them eventually. Temps next week
should remain below normal with nrn stream dominating, though a
general slow warming trend expected.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 06Z TAFS through 06Z Friday Night)
Issued at 120 AM EDT Fri May 13 2016

Primarily VFR conditions expected this period as transient ridge
of high pressure slides over the region. Just a few diurnal cu
possible today...primarily at KFWA...with a modest westerly
gradient wind. Rain will return to the area by Friday night though
as another shortwave/cold front rotate through the area. MVFR
conditions likely...especially at KSBN where IFR may be possible...but
worst conditions appear just outside this TAF period for KFWA.
Slight chance for a thunderstorm but confidence much too low to
include at this point.
