The local office's own words before this special weather statement went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Northern Indiana wrote its last area forecast discussion before this special weather statement went out at Jul 16, 2:02 PM EDT, 5 hours 43 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Jul 16, 2:02 PM EDT, 5 hours 43 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Northern Indiana 202 PM EDT Sun Jul 16 2017 .SYNOPSIS... Issued at 100 PM EDT Sun Jul 16 2017 A weak cold front will continue to push through the region into this evening. An isolated shower or thunderstorm may occur along and southeast of Interstate 69, but severe weather is not expected. High pressure will then build in to bring dry weather and seasonably cool weather to start the week. Much warmer weather can be expected by Wednesday as the low level flow becomes southwest. Highs today and Monday will be mostly in the 70s, but then approach 90 by the middle of the week. && .SHORT TERM...(Tonight and Monday) Issued at 200 PM EDT Sun Jul 16 2017 Secondary weak sfc front making rapid progress across the CWA this aftn and as thought in previous days failing to spark any shower/storm development. 12Z surrounding raobs indicate why with limited low level moisture return underneath fairly vigorous mid level capping inversion. About the only chance will be through nw OH and ern IL/wrn IN late this aftn timed with brief period of better mid level forcing associated with sw disturbance over wrn lake SP dropping due south and some weak low level theta-e ridging...however even this occurs...it looks to be isolated. Otherwise broad sfc ridging will engulf the lakes on Monday. && .LONG TERM...(Tuesday through Saturday) Issued at 200 PM EDT Sun Jul 16 2017 Turning decidedly warmer and more humid this period as significant upper ridge builds out across the central plains. North through northeast periphery of this feature will no doubt support an active nw-se oriented frontal zone. Nonetheless highly doubt 90 degree temps possible as seen in extended MOS guidance at times given generally wet ground conditions within maximized cropscape. Mid 80s more likely which will be uncomfortable enough as evapotranspiration drives sfc dewpoints well into the 70s Thu on. Timing of pertinent wx inducing sw disturbances of note in this pattern sketchy at best and of which will dictate nwd reach of active frontal zone. In addition likely upstream MCS generation and downstream progression/evolution will modulate boundary placement as augmented through convective outflow. Thus egregious blended pops were largely abandoned in favor of a more targeted and conservative approach with greater diurnal weighting in periods of better model based consensus. && .AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Monday Afternoon) Issued at 106 PM EDT Sun Jul 16 2017 Front/wind shift has cleared KSBN and taking aim on KFWA. While moisture remains in place behind the front, main focus of lift will exist with the front, limiting chances for showers or storms. Have removed any VC mention at KSBN and lower to VCSH at KFWA for a few hours. As for flight conditions, some low clouds existing behind the front but seem to be favoring locations west of both sites for the time being. Will monitor trends, but not include in 18Z package. In addition, threat of low clouds/fog could materialize later tonight into early Monday, but confidence low at this time so will defer to later forecasts. && .IWX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
