$$What forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this river flood warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Indianapolis, IN wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at May 28, 10:33 AM EDT, 25 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, May 28, 10:33 AM EDT, 25 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Indianapolis IN 1033 AM EDT Sun May 28 2017 .UPDATE... Aviation section updated && .SYNOPSIS... Issued at 210 AM EDT Sun May 28 2017 A series of weak fronts will cross Indiana from the west through Tuesday. High pressure is expected to develop over our state Wednesday, then another front should arrive Saturday. && .NEAR TERM /Rest of Today/... Issued at 1017 AM EDT Sun May 28 2017 Mid level vorticity tail currently pushing through northern Illinois is expected to reach the far northwest zones by early this afternoon, and into the central zones by early this evening based on short term model guidance. Instability axis currently runs across central Indiana, so expecting scattered convection to develop near this feature by the early to mid afternoon hours. This morning's upper air indicates adequate mid level lapse rates remain over the area for severe convection, however deep layer shear is quite weak. Short term models suggest deep layer shear may increase later this afternoon with the approach of the vorticity tail. Overall, current forecast looks good. Only minor changes made. Previous discussion follows. The main issue is the threat of thunderstorms today. This looks high. The GFS and NAM have similar handling of a disturbance arriving aloft before 24Z. They also agree about large amounts of CAPE surging over Indiana in advance of the disturbance. It's possible clouds will reduce destabilization. However satellite shows we're already on the northern side of the cirrus shield, which is eroding. Subsidence ahead of the short wave this afternoon will also work against clouds. We should at least be partly sunny. With the high late May sun, that supports considerable CAPE. Likely to categorical POPs for thunderstorms seem best for the afternoon. As the HRRR indicates, the morning should be dry as instability builds. Uncertainty about cloudiness means some uncertainty about temperatures, but most methods indicate a consensus should be accurate to within 2 degrees. && .SHORT TERM (Tonight through Tuesday night)... Issued at 210 AM EDT Sun May 28 2017 The forecast problem is POPs. For tonight, the eastern CWA needs a chance in case anything that fires during the afternoon continues past 00Z. In the west, subsidence behind the previously mentioned disturbance should keep things dry. The east should be dry as well after this evening. The models have disagreements Monday through Tuesday night, but concur the flow will stay basically cyclonic. With the high sun angle, that means there be at least some chance of storms every afternoon and evening. Beyond that, consensus should identify periods when rain chances are highest. Skies should be partly cloudy as weak perturbations pass through the cyclonic flow. Given the models differ about rain chances, they have differences with temperatures as well. In absence of a strong reason to go one way or the other, consensus will be used to minimize errors. These should be 3 degrees or less. && .LONG TERM /Wednesday through Saturday/... Issued at 310 AM EDT Sun May 28 2017 Models start the period with a middle/upper level low over southeast Ontario with a short wave trough that will swing from the Upper Great Lakes southeast through the Ohio Valley early in the period. Mid/upper level flow becomes somewhat zonal as another low develops over Lake Winnipeg and drops southeast and deepens into southeast Ontario by Friday evening. Weak embedded short waves will move through the region with this trough starting on Friday. After the trough passes on Wednesday morning, looks like any rain will taper in the morning as high pressure moves into the region for late Wednesday through Thursday. Then, as that next trough begins to move southward into the Upper Great Lakes. Looks that GFS overdoes moisture return through the Mississippi Valley, but the Blend does begin to bring a chance for showers and thunderstorms on Friday through Sunday. Given that the ensembles are struggling with this solution, have a low confidence in this scenario at this time. But, it looks like that rain and the occasional thunderstorm will be possible end of the week into the weekend. Temperatures look that they will be around the average during this period with highs in the mid-upper 70s and lows in the upper 50s to around 60. && .AVIATION /Discussion for the 281500Z IND Taf Update/... VFR Conditions are expected to continue the next several hours. Satellite images continue to show high Cirrus across the area. Rapid Refresh continues to suggest TSRA development after 18Z as Convective temps are reached. Ongoing TAFs handle this well. No major changes. Previous Discussion Below (Discussion for 281200Z TAFs)... Issued at 647 AM EDT Sun May 28 2017 VFR will predominate, but a front should trigger thunderstorms this the afternoon. Most sites are likely be briefly affected by a storm. Some storms may produce gusty winds, hail, or LIFR in heavy rain. Storms are expected to end before 04Z. The wind should veer from southwest to west today, with speeds 5-15 knots. Winds will become west to northeast and decrease to 5-10 knots tonight after the front passes. && .IND WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
