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 Mar 1, 9:20 PM EST, 13 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Mar 1, 9:20 PM EST, 13 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Indianapolis IN
920 PM EST Thu Mar 1 2018

.UPDATE...
The AVIATION Section has been updated below.

&&

.SYNOPSIS...
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 020300z TAF issuance/...

Issued at 920 PM EST Thu Mar 1 2018

VFR already at KLAF should overspread the rest of the sites over the
next two hours. Wind gusts are dropping off and should be gone
within another hour or so. Previous discussion follows...

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.
