Issued at 251 PM EST Thu Mar 1 2018 Dry but windy and colder conditions will prevail tonight in the wake of a cold front. The area of low pressure that has been producing rainfall today has pushed farther east while a large area of high pressure strengthens over the Midwest. This area of high pressure will result in dry conditions for the weekend. Meanwhile, a weak warming trend will commence during the short term period with highs reaching the low to mid 50s by Sunday. Further out, the next system is progged to affect central Indiana starting Monday morning. This is a rather potent system that will linger through mid-week, producing some rain and snow mix on Tuesday and Wednesday. && .NEAR TERM /Tonight/... Issued at 251 PM EST Thu Mar 1 2018 The main focus of the near term period will be the breezy northwest winds and cooler temperatures. A few rain showers continue to swirl over the northeastern quadrant of central Indiana and will continue to do so into the evening hours. Chances and intensity will taper off significantly though over the next few hours as the area of low pressure generating this rain moves farther east and wraparound moisture becomes the only lingering precipitation. So, focus then turns to the cooler air and breezy northwest winds in the wake of the cold front associated with the aforementioned low. Sustained wind speeds will range from 5 to 15 mph with gusts up to 35 mph through late evening. Meanwhile, skies will clear from west to east as high pressure strengthens over the area. This decent radiational cooling combined with the breezy northwest winds will dip temperatures into the upper 20s/low 30s tonight. This is a high confidence forecast. && .SHORT TERM /Tomorrow through Sunday/... Issued at 251 PM EST Thu Mar 1 2018 A benign short term period will prevail as high pressure dominates the forecast period. So, dry conditions can be expected for the duration of the period. Meanwhile, temperatures will start out near normal tomorrow, but a weak warming trend will commence throughout the period, and highs will climb into the low to mid 50s by Sunday with lows in the 20s on Friday and Saturday nights. This is a high confidence forecast. && .LONG TERM /Sunday Night through Thursday/... Issued at 224 PM EST Thu Mar 1 2018 ECMWF suggests a strong ridge over Central Indiana On Sunday night through Monday...which will lead to dry weather. Surface High pressure east of Indiana will lead to warmer southerly flow on monday. On Monday Night through Thursday Morning...chances for precipitation will return to Central Indiana. The ECMWF then suggests a strong upper short wave and associated surface low pushing through the region at slow place. Ample dynamics with this system should lead to precipitation chances through the middle of next week with favorable moisture also available. The ECMWF shows the upper short wave departing as surface high pressure is expected to arrive...leading to a return of dry weather. Overall with no real surges of cold air...temperatures look to be at or slightly above normal values this period. && .AVIATION /Discussion for 020000z TAF issuance/... Issued at 604 PM EST Thu Mar 1 2018 Could see very brief light showers move through the sites over the next couple of hours, but coverage is small enough to probably miss sites as well. Even if they do move over the sites, there is no impact to flight category with them. Improvements will come to the TAF sites from northwest to southeast over the next few hours as clearing line moves in from Illinois. KLAF ceilings should scatter shortly, so do not include any restrictions there with issuance, and all other sites should improve to VFR by 3z. Northwesterly wind gusts of 20 to 30 kts should decrease during that period as well, so that by 3z or so gusts have mostly subsided and winds are around 8 to 13 kts out of the northwest with no gusts. These will further decrease throughout the night to around 3 to 7 kts. && .IND WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
