Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Indianapolis IN
146 PM EDT Wed Jul 12 2017

.UPDATE...
The LONG TERM Section has been updated below.

&&

.SYNOPSIS...
Issued at 230 AM EDT Wed Jul 12 2017

HIgh pressure southeast of Indiana will provide dry weather today.
Warm southwest winds will continue to flow into the
state...resulting in a warm and humid day.

Tonight low pressure moving toward the Great Lakes from the
northern plains will push an upper level weather disturbance
toward Central Indiana. This may result in the return of
thunderstorms late tonight.

Thursday looks like a stormy day. Low pressure moving through the
Great Lakes will push a cold front south across Indiana. This will
result in thunderstorms generated ahead of the front on Thursday
and Thursday Night that will push across Central Indiana.

Dry weather looks to arrive by Friday Afternoon as High pressure
settles across the area. This will bring dry weather for the
weekend.

&&

.NEAR TERM /Today/...

Issued at 230 AM EDT Wed Jul 12 2017

Surface analysis early this morning shows high pressure in place
across the southeastern United States Low pressure was found
across the northern plains. This was resulting in a warm southwest
flow of air to Central Indiana. GOES16 shows Thunderstorms
complexes developing ahead of the low pressure system over
Minnesota and along a warm front over Southern Wisconsin.
Dew points in Central Indiana were in the sticky lower 70s and
skies were partly cloudy due to mainly some convection debris
cloud.

GFS and NAm both suggest the low pressure system over Minnesota
will push east today toward the Great lakes. This will give
Central Indiana a one day reprieve from the storms as the warm
front should remain to the north. Southwesterly flow across
Indiana should aid in keeping all the forcing and dynamics north
today. Forecast soundings and time heights are in pretty good
agreement here showing a dry column...and unreachable convective
tempertures in the mid and upper 90s. Furthermore forecast
soundings are the driest they have been in a few days and 700mb
temps are soaring near 11C...which should provide a nice cap for
diurnally driven storms. Thus will trend toward a dry forecast
today and stick close to the forecast builder blend on temps.

&&

.SHORT TERM /Tonight through Friday Night/...

Issued at 230 AM EDT Wed Jul 12 2017

 For tonight...best forcing and dynamics still remain well north
of Central Indiana...closest to the warm front. Forecast
soundings and Time height remain dry...but do show signs of
increased saturation through the night. thus will trend toward a
dry forecast for much of tonight. May include a slight chance
toward daybreak Thursday across the northern counties...but
confidence is low.

Conditions for storms appear quite favorable on Thursday.
GFS and NAM both suggest a short wave pushing out of the northern
plains. This will be the main kicker to push the Low pressure
system across the Great lakes and send the associated cold front
southward. Favorable forcing will be associated with the cold
front as it interacts with the very warm and moist air mass
across Indiana. Forecast sounding show a very unstable
column Thursday afternoon...with steep lapse rates and plentiful
CAPE over 3500 j/KG/ Broad lift will also be in place ahead of the
front as the 310K isentropic surface shows good lift and specific
humidities over 9 g/kg. furthermore Pwats are near 1.90 inches.
Thus heavy rain will be possible too. Overall all raise pops
toward categorical on Thursday afternoon and evening when before
forcing and heating will combine. Confidence for storms is high
and we cannot rule out a severe storms given the available
instability.

By Friday Morning the GFS and NAM suggest the upper trough will
be over eastern Ontario and NW flow will be prevalent aloft. The
associated dynamics and forcing with the cold front should have
exited toward the ohio river and precip should be coming to
quick end. Will include some low chance pops across the southern
during the first few hours of the day on Friday...but but mainly
due to possible timing issues with the models. Overall the trend
for Friday and Friday night will be toward dry weather...and
confidence is high on this. Forecast soundings show very string
subsidence and drying by Friday afternoon as strong High pressure
builds across the area from the northwest. Will stick with a blend
on temps.

&&

.LONG TERM /Saturday Night through Wednesday/...

Issued at 145 PM EDT Wed Jul 12 2017

Models are close enough that the model blend initialization
was acceptable.

Most of the period will be tranquil save for a thunderstorm
chance with frontal passage late Sunday. As this fronts upper
trough slips east and upper ridge builds east, dry weather
will prevail into midweek.

Temperatures this period will start at or just below seasonal
levels but transition back above normal by midweek as ridge
strengthens in our area. Surface dewpoints will return to the
lower 60s early in the week and only recover to near 70 by
Wednesday thus the period will feel slightly less humid than
recent days.

&&

.AVIATION (Discussion for 121800Z TAFs)...

Issued at 1247 PM EDT Wed Jul 12 2017

Thunderstorms will slowly become more widespread from the north from
tonight into Thursday as a front approaches.  Storms may produce
VLIFR in heavy rain, and gusty winds. Such conditions will be short-
lived and can not be adequately captured in the TAFs at this
point. Expect updates as it is possible to add precision.

Between storms, there will be VFR with ceilings of 5000 feet or
more. The wind should remain southwest than 10 knots.

Including the cities of Indianapolis, Terre Haute, Shelbyville,

1241 PM EDT Wed Jul 12 2017

This hazardous weather outlook is for central Indiana.

.DAY ONE...This Afternoon and Tonight.

Outlook: Residual flooding will continue from Tuesday's storms.
Isolated thunderstorms are possible this afternoon and again late
tonight across northern parts of Central Indiana.

Hazards: Ongoing Flooding. Lightning, gusty winds, and heavy rain
from isolated storms.

Timing: Flooding is ongoing. Thunderstorms chances mainly this
evening onward.

Discussion: Southwesterly winds ahead of low pressure moving
through the Upper Midwest will transport humid air to Central
Indiana today. A front, interacting with upper level weather
disturbances could generate additional isolated thunderstorms later
today and tonight. Some storms may produce heavy rain which could
result in further flooding. Lightning is a threat from any storm.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Thursday through Tuesday.

Outlook: There is a SLIGHT RISK for severe thunderstorms on Thursday
and Thursday Night. The main threats from these storms will be
damaging wind...heavy rain resulting in flash flooding and lightning.

Thunderstorms on Thursday and Thursday Night will have the potential
to bring several inches of rain to parts of central Indiana. With
many locations already having saturated ground and elevated water
levels, any additional rain would bring a return of flooding and
exacerbate existing flooding.

More storms are possible Sunday and Sunday night. It is too soon to
determine if these storms will be severe. Lightning is a threat with
any thunderstorm.

Discussion: A cold front will approach and pass across Central
Indiana Thursday and Thursday Night. Thunderstorms are expected to
develop along and ahead of the front. Heavy rain will be possible due
to a very warm and humid air mass in place across Central Indiana.

Another front will bring additional chances for showers and
thunderstorms on Sunday and Sunday night.

Spotter activation is not expected today. Spotters may be needed on
Thursday and Thursday Night.

disturbances could generate additional isolated thunderstorms late
tonight. Some storms may produce heavy rain which could result in
