.SHORT TERM...(This Evening through Friday)
Issued at 320 PM EDT Thu May 4 2017

Potent sw disturbance wrapping up through ne AR will wobble ewd into
sw KY overnight. Broad downstream warm advection regime continues
although primary morning surge translating downstream into se MI
attm. Secondary surge taking shape from cntrl TN nwd into srn IN
which will generally spread back newd into ern areas this evening.
Wrn bound of current precip shield breaking up and will diminish
further this evening esp far w/nw counties where precip will likely
end by midnight.

Otherwise primary feature of note will be evolution of mid level
deformation zone late tonight through about noon Fri. GFS solution
farthest west and discounted in favor of more closely aligned
GEM/EC/NAM. Thus will truncate wrn bound of both higher chc/likely
pops and chuck nw half of flood watch. Expect ern areas will see
another 1-2 inches of rainfall with deformation zone late
tonight-Fri morning. Otherwise continued quite chilly esp in
areas where rain persists.

.LONG TERM...(Friday Night through Thursday)
Issued at 320 PM EDT Thu May 4 2017

OH valley low will phase with secondary nrn stream disturbance
dropping out of cntrl Canada Fri night and cutoff over the ern lakes
Sat with sct shra expected with secondary sw disturbance late Fri
night (west) through Sat aftn (east). Otherwise deep cutoff low
persists through New England through mid week before breaking down.

Rather significant shot of cold air will funnel swd this weekend as
upr lows phase and then cutoff. Coldest night looks to be Sun night
as sfc ridge axis settles in with clr skies and winds decouple.
Unfortunately sub-freezing temps appear likely over nern areas in
proximity to colder side of low level thermal trough.

Thereafter short amplitude ridging aloft spreads ewd into the wrn
lakes mid week ahead of next upstream bowling ball ejecting out of
the Rockies. Vigorous return low level theta-e into backside of this
retreating cool airmass likely to spurn precip through a portion of
the wrn OH valley. Hwvr considerable med range based signal noise
exists at this range especially with timing of eventual demise of
ern block. Will generally follow with extended period of low chc
pops DYS7-8.

Unseasonably cool temps will hold through Tue before breaking higher
late period.

.AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Friday Afternoon)
Issued at 138 PM EDT Thu May 4 2017

Widespread light to moderate rain has overspread the region this
afternoon, and this rain will continue into the overnight hours as
the low pressure system centered over Tennessee lifts northeastward.
MVFR to IFR conditions will continue through most of the period,
with even LIFR conditions possible at KFWA overnight. Precipitation
will be most focused over KFWA by Friday afternoon, thus have SBN
becoming VFR by about 16Z. Rain will continue through the day
tomorrow at KFWA. Winds will continue to gust to 20-30 mph through
the overnight period, remaining out of the NE. Some of the guidance
shows FWA dropping to LIFR this afternoon, but with lack of any LIFR
conditions observed at any nearby sites, left it out of the forecast
for now. We could see some brief periods of ceilings around 500-600
feet, but will handle that with amendments if it materializes.
