Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Northern Indiana
341 PM EST Thu Mar 9 2017

.SYNOPSIS...
Issued at 341 PM EST Thu Mar 9 2017

A frontal system will move into the Ohio Valley tonight and bring
a chance of light rain that will change to a rain and snow mix to
all snow after midnight. Any accumulations should be just a few
tenths of an inch, primarily south of Route 24. Lows tonight will
be in the lower to middle 20s. Dry and unseasonably cold
conditions are expected for the Friday through Sunday period.
Highs through the weekend will only reach the middle 20s to lower
30s.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(This Evening through Friday)
Issued at 333 PM EST Thu Mar 9 2017

Weak response with returns mostly aloft from extreme northeast IL
across northern portions of CWA and eastward through northern Ohio
in response to exit region of extreme 140-150 kt upper level jet
streak/favorable left exit region. Sub cloud moisture lacking and
proving quite formidable with only very light/trace event expected
across northern CWA. Of more concern is series of frontal
waves/pressure falls over southern MO into middle Ohio Valley. More
succinct farther upstream over the Ozarks to continue east-southeast
trajectory and sag baroclinic zone a bit farther south as well.
Concern is brief/fleeting period of I295K isentropic/system relative
upglide and modest moisture tap to provide better chances for light
qpf event centered about 02-06 UTC timeframe tonight in southeast
CWA/generally south of U.S. 24. Initial jetstreak system may also
help to prime northwest Ohio region as the more southerly tracked
frontal wave approaches. Regardless anticipate a light rain to mix
rain/snow to snow event as max Tw profile collapses through the
night. Little more than a few tenths accum possible in far southeast
CWA. Otherwise, lowered temps slightly overnight and Friday in wake
of frontal wave/sharpening eastern CONUS trof drives deeper/colder
airmass southward. Given lack of  significant lake/8H thermal
differential, building heights aloft and dearth of moisture in cp
airmass have squelched blended pops on Friday and into the weekend.

&&

.LONG TERM...(Friday Night through Thursday)
Issued at 333 PM EST Thu Mar 9 2017
  Continued quite cool temperatures through the weekend
with low level thermal trof finally releasing after Sat night.
Reluctant to undercut blend starting Sunday with weak thermal
advection/lack of snowcover and ever increasing solar angle.
Regardless moderating trend will be paused as potent waves across
far northern Canada and Pacific Northwest congeal to reassert
positive tilted/deepening trof axis upstream Sunday night/Monday.
Leeside cyclogenesis culminates into cyclone somewhere near
northeast MO midday Monday, that tracks through Ohio Valley Monday
night, followed by coastal handoff into early Tuesday. Again
southerly suppressed baroclinic zone supports favorable snow thermal
profiles for CWA. High chance to likely snow mention late Sunday
night/early Monday into early Tuesday timeframe. thermal profiles
still appear to favor a light to perhaps moderate event early next
week, followed by north to northeast fetch and allow nominal LES
pops to follow Tuesday before reassertion of arctic ridge across
western Upper Great Lakes with temperatures back down into the teens
likely Wednesday morning.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Friday Afternoon)
Issued at 1152 AM EST Thu Mar 9 2017

VFR flight conditions will remain for the entire forecast period.
Winds this afternoon will be light out of the NE and will shift
this evening to out of the NNW. Light band of precipitation
currently over southern Michigan will progress southward over the
forecast period. Precipitation should transition to flurries by
02z at both terminals but it is expected to be light and have
little effect on flight conditions.
