Flood Warning
National Weather Service Indianapolis IN
1106 AM EDT Sun Apr 15 2018
...The National Weather Service in Indianapolis has issued a Flood
Warning for portions of the following river in west central
Indiana...
Wabash River...
.Lowland flooding is expected to develop along the Wabash River at
Covington and Terre Haute as a result of this weekend's rainfall.
Rainfall has been largely been lighter than expected across
central and southern Indiana, and the heavier rainfall has been a
bit later than expected. This is resulting in lower and slightly
delayed rises in river levels.
Most rain gauge reports this morning for the past 24 hours worth of
rain have been under one inch and nearly all locations exceeding one
inch have stayed under one and one half inches.
Precautionary/Preparedness Actions...
Motorists should never drive into flood water. Turn around and go
another way. Keep children away from flooded areas. Recreational and
agricultural interests should remain alert to changing river
conditions.

Flood Statement
National Weather Service Indianapolis IN
1140 AM EDT Sun Apr 15 2018
...A Flood Warning continues for portions of the following rivers in
Indiana...
Wabash River...White River...
.As of late Sunday morning lowland flooding continued along the
lower reaches of the Wabash and White Rivers. Rainfall from this
weekend's storm system will either slow the fall of the rivers or
cause a slight rise in this area. Noteworthy rises are expected
along the Wabash from around the Hutsonville area northward, where
crests of up to about three feet above flood stage should occur.
Flooding will likely not end until this upcoming weekend or early
next week.
New flooding is not expected along the White and East Fork White
Rivers as well as other waterways in central and southern Indiana
under the responsibility of the National Weather Service office in
Indianapolis.
Rainfall has been largely been lighter than expected across
central and southern Indiana, and the heavier rainfall was a
bit later than expected. This is resulting in lower and slightly
delayed rises in river levels than originally anticipated. As
of late Sunday morning rain was ending west to east across Indiana.
Less than one quarter of an inch of rain is expected in locations
still receiving rainfall. A 20 to 30 percent probability of rain
showers will remain with us behind the main area of rain through the
overnight hours, and snow showers may mix in overnight and Monday
morning.
Flood waters will continue to impact state, county, and local roads,
river parks, campgrounds, and other recreational activities near and
on waterways, and agricultural land.
Precautionary/Preparedness Actions...
Motorists should never drive into flood water. Turn around and go
another way. Keep children away from flooded areas. Recreational and
agricultural interests should remain alert to changing river
conditions.

$$What forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this river flood warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Indianapolis, IN wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at Apr 15, 9:30 AM CDT, 36 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Apr 15, 9:30 AM CDT, 36 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Indianapolis IN 1030 AM EDT Sun Apr 15 2018 .UPDATE... The AVIATION Section has been updated below. && .SYNOPSIS... Issued at 206 AM EDT Sun Apr 15 2018 Deep low pressure over West Central Indiana will push northeast today...Dragging a cold front across The state. This will bring rain chances to the state...particularly this morning as the front passes. An associated upper level low pressure system will arrive in the area Tonight and Monday. This will bring chances for rain or snow showers to Central Indiana tonight and Monday. Any precipitation amounts will be light. Dry weather associated with High pressure is expected to arrive by the middle of the work week. Yet another quick moving low may arrive on Wednesday Night into Thursday...bringing another chance for precipitation. && .NEAR TERM /Tonight/... Issued at 206 AM EDT Sun Apr 15 2018 Surface analysis early this morning shows low pressure over West Central Indiana. Triple point was found east of HUF. An associated cold front was found from east of HUF to SW Indiana and to Western KY...marching slowly eastward. A Warm front stretched eastward...close to I-70. Radar shows area of showers ahead of the front...streaming North across Central Indiana. Due to the fronts across the area...a large temperature gradient was in place with 40s across the northern parts of the forecast area and 60s in the south. The GFS and NAM show a progression of the surface low to the east...mainly along the Warm front over the next several hours. As the low reaches points east of the state...drier air is expected to arrive on Westerly Winds. Time heights show best moisture and lift in place ahead of the front...through about 12Z. After that point...forecast soundings show dry air intruding into the column. The associated upper low will remain to the west of Indiana today...and instability showers within the broad cyclonic flow will be possible in the afternoon as forecast sounding indicate convective temps near 49F. Thus will trend highest pops for the first few hours this morning and then trend toward just chance pops this afternoon when as instability showers will be possible. Given the cold air advection today in the wake of the cold front will trend temperature at or below the forecast builder blends. && .SHORT TERM /Tonight through Tuesday Night/... Issued at 206 AM EDT Sun Apr 15 2018 The GFS and NAM suggest Indiana will be under the influence of the upper low tonight and Monday. The upper low is expected to push a negatively tilted trough axis across Indiana...followed by the passage of the upper low on early Monday. Time Heights show extensive lower level moisture during that this time with weak lift. Within the lower levels the surface low is expected to push to Lake Huron...and broad cyclonic flow is expected to remain across the region. Forecast soundings show saturated lower levels...with mainly a SN type sounding...although some dry air within the lowest levels of column could change the light precip over to DZ. Given the clouds and cold air advection will trend low at or below the forecast builder blends. On Monday night through Tuesday the upper low finally exits the area to the northeast. As the lower level flow finally becomes less cyclonic forecast soundings suggest that the lower level strato-cu finally dissipates. Thus will trend toward a dry forecast on Monday Night through Tuesday...sticking close to the forecast builder blends on Temps. The GFS and NAM are hinting at the Arrival of a warm front on Tuesday night. Good lift should be in place as the front surges north across Central Indiana. Forecast soundings are suggesting good lower level saturation after 06Z. Thus will trend toward some low chance pops for now as upper support does not really appear to be in play yet. Given the warm air advection will trend lows warmer than the forecast builder blends. && .LONG TERM /Wednesday through Saturday Night/... Issued at 338 AM EDT Sun Apr 15 2018 The best chances for any rain showers will come early and late in the extended period. First, temperatures will climb back into the 60s on Wednesday ahead of a warm front. The associated surface and upper lows will combine to trigger scattered rain showers for Wednesday and Thursday, but chances are still not very high. After that, the latest blended initialization continues to trend toward a dry period from Thursday night through Friday night with high pressure over the central U.S. The second chance for rain showers will come on Saturday as a low pressure system tracks from the Central Plains into the Ohio and Tennessee Valleys. Once again though, precipitation probabilities are only at slight chance and chance for now. Meanwhile, temperatures will be below normal for the second half of the extended period. && .AVIATION /Discussion for the 15/15Z IND TAF Update/... Issued at 1030 AM EDT Sun Apr 15 2018 Based on radar trends and High Resolution Rapid Refresh, pulled the VCSH after 16z. Previous discussion follows... Issued at 730 AM EDT Sun Apr 15 2018 MVFR will be the predominant flight category with a brief period of IFR conditions also possible this morning. Widespread rain showers will impact the TAF sites throughout the TAF period as a low pressure system and associated cold front move through the area. Winds will back to the west with sustained speeds of 5 to 10 kts. && .IND WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...NONE. && SYNOPSIS...Puma NEAR TERM...Puma SHORT TERM...Puma LONG TERM....TDUD AVIATION...TDUD/MK
