AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
National Weather Service Northern Indiana
309 AM EST Wed Jan 11 2017

.SYNOPSIS...
Issued at 1245 AM EST Wed Jan 11 2017

High pressure will move across the area this morning providing dry
conditions. A low pressure system will move northeast across the
Great Lakes tonight and Thursday causing rain in our area. High
pressure will move into the Great Lakes behind this system
providing dry conditions with cooler temperatures Friday. Another
low pressure system is expected to track through the Ohio Valley
over the weekend, possibly causing a wintry mix of precipitation,
mainly across southern portions of our area.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(Today and Thursday)
Issued at 307 AM EST Wed Jan 11 2017

Strong upstream jet streak rotating through base of potent cntrl
Canada sw trough will race ewd through James Bay by this evening.
Swwd trailing frontal zone and sfc frontal wave developing over
ern CO this morning will streak out newd in response. Thus
brief/shallow cold advection wing will rapidly modify as flow
backs quickly toward daybreak and ramps significantly higher late
this aftn and evening. Highres guidance quite bullish with
unstable low level theta-e burst ahead of sfc boundary this
evening and of which may promote a period of thunder potential
northwest half as ejecting sfc cyclone augments more
focused/deeper ascent plume although this signal remains fleeting
otherwise near term nod looks more showery this aftn. Progressive
sfc front will push through all but far se overnight with more
focused rainfall occurring with the frontal zone with blended pops
Thu morning looks inflated given vigorous post frontal drying
spreading in across the cwa.

&&

.LONG TERM...(Friday through Tuesday)
Issued at 307 AM EST Wed Jan 11 2017

More erstwhile consensus has developed with handling of arctic ridge
dipping further down across the srn lakes Fri and swd suppression of
sfc frontal zone into the TN valley. Thus most favorable zone of
extended over running has shifted to just north of the OH river
through Sun aftn and with it the more significant icing
potential. However higher based zone of mid level frontogenesis
still heralds a potential trouble zone along and south of the
highway 24 corridor late Saturday into early Sunday and perhaps
again farther north Sunday night. Still significant spread exists
in handling and ewd projection of newd ejecting upper trough out
of the srn Rockies late weekend. Best course of action given the
noise is to follow blended approximations that capture ongoing
trends reasonably well.

Regardless strong consensus does exit with tracking deepening
cyclone well west again early next week. This allows broad warm
sector to spread well north again into the lakes with +15-20 degree
temp anomalies Mon-Tue.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 06Z TAFS through 06Z Wednesday Night)
Issued at 1245 AM EST Wed Jan 11 2017

Ridge building into the area allowing gradient winds and patchy mvfr
based post frontal strato cu to grdly diminish early this morning.
Front will lift back north across nrn IN today as a low moves ne
from KS to MI. This will spread low clouds and rain back into the
area by this eve causing vfr conditions to rapidly deteriorate to
ifr. Increasing llj to the se of path of the low will also result
in sgfnt llws at the terminals this aftn/eve.

&&

.IWX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
IN...NONE.
MI...NONE.
OH...NONE.
LM...Small Craft Advisory until 4 PM EST this afternoon for LMZ043-
