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 Feb 28, 6:00 AM EST, 4 hours 4 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Feb 28, 6:00 AM EST, 4 hours 4 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Indianapolis IN
600 AM EST Tue Feb 28 2017

.UPDATE...

The AVIATION section has been updated below.

&&

.SYNOPSIS...
Issued at 400 AM EST Tue Feb 28 2017

A strong storm system will bring strong to severe thunderstorms to
central Indiana late today...tonight and Wednesday morning. Then,
more seasonable weather will return. A clipper system will bring a
chance of rain or snow to the area Thursday. Mild weather will
return this weekend as well the potential for more unsettled weather
as a cold front approaches the Ohio Valley and Great Lakes Sunday
night.

&&

.NEAR TERM /Today/...
Issued at 400 AM EST Tue Feb 28 2017

Thunderstorm trends will be the main issue today along with how
quickly the atmosphere can reload ahead of an advancing frontal
system.

Latest radar was showing increasing showers across areas west of
Indianapolis in warm air advection pattern. There were a decent
amount of lightning strikes over central Illinois as elevated
instability was in that area. As the warm front lifts northeast of
the area this afternoon, gusty southerly winds should allow for
temperatures to reach the mid and upper 60s late in the afternoon.
In addition dew points will approach 60. Expect the current showers
to spread east across central Indiana through mid morning. Then,
expect a lull.

Under thick cloud cover and convective inhibition, do not think
there will be very good thunderstorm coverage this afternoon. The
High Resolution Rapid Refresh supports this thinking. Can not
completely isolated severe storms, but think the main risk for
severe weather will be after 00z tonight. Instability progs do show
enough instability for thunder inclusion. In addition, winds will
pick up. Could see wind gusts to 30 mph or more late in the day.

&&

.SHORT TERM /Tonight through Wednesday night/...
Issued at 400 AM EST Tue Feb 28 2017

The main concern for the short term will be severe storms tonight as
a frontal system approaches from the west accompanied by strong
dynamics including a 140 knot upper jet and 50 plus knot low level
jet. The low level jet will advect plenty of moisture and
instability northward over the area ahead of the front.

The latest HRRR suggests a line or two may start forming across the
Ozarks and central Illinois around 00z tonight. It was not hinting
at any prefrontal supercell activity over central Indiana. Current
thinking is that a squall line will move east across central Indiana
around 03z-09z. All kinds of severe weather will be possible but
mostly damaging winds. Could see a brief spin up or two as well
along the line. Will also mention brief heavy rain threat in the
Hazardous Weather Outlook.

SPC left slight risk in on Wednesday near and south of a Bedford to
Greensburg line and a Marginal Risk near and south of a Anderson to
Indianapolis to Sullivan line. Not as confident that we will see
anything after 12z due to typical weakening for that time of day.
The front should be southeast of the area after 18z. Left lingering
small pops in Wednesday evening northeast. Could see a very brief
mix over to snow before it ends by 06z Thursday.

After a mostly dry Thursday under surface high pressure, a clipper
system will bring a chance of rain and then snow to the area
Thursday night, with the best chance northeast, close to the upper
wave.

Blend temperatures look reasonable considering frontal timing, cloud
cover and low level thermal progs. Look for above normal highs on
Wednesday but then seasonable from Tuesday night on, in the wake of
the cold front.

&&

.LONG TERM /Friday through Monday Night/...

Issued at 349 AM EST Tue Feb 28 2017

The extended period will start out under the effects of high
pressure. As a result, dry conditions can be expected on Friday.
Nonetheless, a few snow showers will move in on Friday night as
isentropic lift strengthens with a warm front. The pattern will
shift behind this front, and daytime highs will soar into the 60s by
Sunday and MOnday in this warm sector. Further out, rain chances
will increase starting Sunday night as a surface low tracks through
the Great Lakes Region. The fluctuating pattern will then resume
late in the period when cooler air filters in behind an associated
cold front. Latest Superblend initialization was accepted for all
situations.

&&

.AVIATION /Discussion for the 28/12Z TAF Issuance/...
Issued at 600 AM EST Tue Feb 28 2017

Trends favor decrease in coverage of showers 12z-14z from west to
east. However, they may hang around a little longer near BMG. Low to
moderate confidence flying conditions will deteriorate to IFR or
worse 14z and later. Good confidence thunderstorm coverage will not
be enough for more than a VCTS 18z-24z. Then, will go with
prevailing showers and VCTS and MVFR as a squall line or two are
expected to move through.

South winds will be gusty 20 to 25 knots outside of thunderstorms
after 18z. Winds will shift to southwest toward 12z Wednesday, when
a strong cold front will approach from the west.

This hazardous weather outlook is for central Indiana.

.DAY ONE...Today and Tonight.

Outlook: Enhanced Risk for severe weather for all of central Indiana.

Hazards: Damaging winds, isolated tornadoes, large hail, and heavy
rain.

Timing: Severe threat after 10 pm tonight.

Discussion: Thunderstorms will be possible this afternoon, but the
severe threat will not be until tonight when a frontal system with
strong dynamics enters the area.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Wednesday through Monday.

Outlook: There is a Slight Risk of severe weather for the far
southeast counties on Wednesday. Damaging winds, large hail, and
isolated tornadoes are possible along with cloud to ground lightning
and brief heavy rain. There is also a Marginal Risk for severe
weather on Wednesday over areas south of a Carlisle to Indianapolis
to Muncie line.

Snow showers may mix in across northeastern parts of central Indiana
Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday nights. A minor snow accumulation
can not be ruled out.

Discussion: A cold front will move east across the area on
Wednesday. This will bring unsettled weather to the area with mild
temperatures becoming seasonable on Thursday. A clipper system will
move through Thursday night bringing rain and snow showers to the
area. Finally, high pressure will keep it dry through the weekend.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

Spotter activation may be needed Tuesday night and Wednesday.
