Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Northern Indiana
1257 AM EST Wed Nov 8 2017

.SYNOPSIS...
Issued 1254 AM EST Tue Nov 7 2017

High pressure will build across the region today providing mainly
sunny skies and cooler than normal afternoon highs in the mid to
upper 40s. Clouds will begin to increase later tonight into
Thursday as a strong cold front approaches. This front will bring
the coldest air of the season to the region with high temperatures
only reaching into the lower to mid 30s by Friday. Low
temperatures by Thursday night and Friday night will drop into the
lower to mid 20s. Along with the colder temperatures will come a
chance of some lake effect snow showers Thursday night into early
Friday.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(This Evening through Wednesday)
Issued at 206 PM EST Tue Nov 7 2017

Latest surface analysis has high pressure centered over the northern
plains while frontal wave has moved east toward the mid-Atlantic
states. Water vapor imagery depicting elongated trof axis extending
from northern great lakes back to short wave diving SE from the
central Rockies. Surface ridging will be building into the region in
the short term providing fair weather through the period with temps
running a few degrees below normal...lows tonight 25-30 highs
Wednesday 45-50.

&&

.LONG TERM...(Wednesday Night through Tuesday)
Issued at 206 PM EST Tue Nov 7 2017

A weak northern stream system will move across the northern great
lakes region and bring a cold front thru the area Thursday-Thursday
night. Lack of moisture will preclude any appreciable precip
associated with the front itself but other than small chance along
our northern tier of counties. Another shot of cold air behind this
front will bring a chance for lake effect snow showers Thursday
night into early Friday morning with unidirectional northerly flow
beneath 5Kft inversion along with modest sfc-850mb delta-T.
However...fast moving zonal pattern aloft will limit duration of the
LES as ridge axis quickly moves over the region by Friday morning
resulting in winds veering to NE/E after 06Z Friday. Brief period of
dry weather with high pressure over the area on Friday-Saturday
morning but also coldest airmass of the season as lows will drop to
near 20 and highs only 30-35 Friday moderating to 35-40 Saturday.
Next system and chances for precip approaches the area Saturday
afternoon. Expect temperatures to warm enough above freezing by the
time precip arrives Saturday afternoon precip should be all
rain...but with lows 30-35 Saturday night will bring mixed precip
into play and will keep grids simple rain/snow mix for now.
Changeover back to rain on Sunday with highs into the mid 40s before
system exits the area Sunday evening. Pacific High builds into the
region to begin next week and lack of Canadian airmass will keep
temps seasonably cool.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 06Z TAFS through 06Z Wednesday Night)
Issued at 1254 AM EST Wed Nov 8 2017

An upper level short wave will continue to sag southward across
the Ohio Valley during the remainder of the overnight hours,
allowing for a continued diminishment of mid cloud cover across
northeast Indiana. Mid and high cloud cover will increase once
again toward the end of the forecast valid period as an upper
trough approaches the northern Great Lakes. Winds will remain
light through the period, generally light and calm through
remainder of the overnight, and then light west-northwest for
Wednesday as sfc high remains centered to the west.
