$$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 28, 10:47 AM EDT, 45 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Mar 28, 10:47 AM EDT, 45 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Indianapolis IN 1047 AM EDT Wed Mar 28 2018 .UPDATE... Aviation section updated && .SYNOPSIS... Issued at 336 AM EDT Wed Mar 28 2018 Today will see a lull in the rain as the cold front moves into northern Kentucky. Then, a wave will lift the front back north tonight and bring more widespread rain to the area Thursday. The rain will be ending Thursday night as the front once again drops south of the area. Then, high pressure will bring a much needed break in the rain Friday and Friday night, but more rain will return by Saturday ahead of another front. Could see a brief mix with light snow Saturday night into Sunday morning north. Near normal temperatures the next few days will turn cooler by Sunday. && .NEAR TERM /This Afternoon/... Issued at 954 AM EDT Wed Mar 28 2018 Surface analysis late this morning shows an area of low pressure stretching from west Central Ohio to Western Kentucky. Rain showers were streaming NE near the Ohio River close to the low. Water Vapor imagery shows a plume of tropical moisture streaming from eastern Texas to Southern Illinois and Central Indiana. Models suggest weak low will drift to the east late this afternoon. However time heights and forecast soundings continue to show saturated lower levels through the day. Aloft...best forcing shifts farther south. Thus thus should just lead to a mostly cloudy afternoon. HRRR suggests an area of shift pushing northward into Central Indiana...off the main plume line. Given this have kept some low chance pops across the south...however confidence in that is low. && .SHORT TERM /Tonight through Friday night/... Issued at 348 AM EDT Wed Mar 28 2018 PoPs and QPF will be the main focus tonight and Thursday. Models in good agreement that the New Mexico trough will pivot east and spin up a wave that will lift northeast toward the Ohio Valley which will result in the cold front moving back north tonight and Thursday. This combined with central Indiana being in the right rear quad of a 160 plus knot upper jet should result in more widespread moderate rain with brief heavy rain possible toward morning and all day Thursday. Blend QPF was a little over an inch at most spots and our southeastern counties are in the Day2 Excessive Rainfall Outlook. That said, after coordinating with LMK and PAH and with the low level jet over Kentucky the whole time and little problems thus far, will hold on another Flood Watch. Likely to Cat blend Pops tonight and Cat PoPS all day Thursday look good as do PoPs dropping off from west to east Thursday overnight. Confidence is high on trends. Day 2 SPC Severe Weather Outlook has general thunder in parts of our extreme southern tier of counties. However, Forecast Builder did not pick up on it and adjacent offices are not carrying thunder, so left it out. High confidence we will see dry weather and some sunshine by Friday as high pressure builds in. With a reinforcing front moving across from the northwest, a return to the below normal temperatures looks inevitable on Friday per the blend. && .LONG TERM /Saturday through Tuesday/... Issued at 333 AM EDT Wed Mar 28 2018 The presence of a strong upper low dropping southeast from James Bay will maintain a cooler than normal regime as the Great Lakes and Ohio Valley remain largely under the influence of an upper level trough through the extended. Low pressure will track into the Great Lakes on Saturday with a cold front sweeping through the region. Expect scattered showers focused Saturday afternoon and night as the boundary passes through the area. Potential exists for a few wet snowflakes to mix in prior to daybreak Sunday as the low level thermals cool. Extended model guidance has now come into better agreement on any lingering precipitation departing early Sunday as high pressure builds into the area. Other than a small threat for a few showers over far southern portions of the forecast area Sunday night as a surface wave passes to the south...dry conditions will persist through Monday under the influence of the high pressure. The arrival of another frontal boundary will bring precipitation back into central Indiana Monday night and Tuesday. Once again...snow may mix in with the rain during the predawn hours Tuesday. Overall...temperatures will remain chilly as the calendar flips to April. Highs will primarily range from the mid 40s to mid 50s through the period with the exception of Sunday. While Sunday will be dry...cold advection in wake of the Saturday system will ensure temperatures largely remain in the low and mid 40s. All signs beyond the 7 day continue to show no sustained period of warmth and arrival of typical Spring weather through the first 10 days of April. && .AVIATION /Discussion for the 281500Z IND Taf update/... IFR conditions are expected to continue with KIND on the north side of the warm front to the south...in a favorable fog and stratus location. CIGS below 1000FT will be expected along with IFR visibilities the next few hours. Previous Discussion Below /Discussion for 281200Z TAF Issuance/... Issued at 642 AM EDT Wed Mar 28 2018 While there will be some improvements later today...poor flying conditions will generally persist through much of the forecast period. Rain continued across the southeast half of central Indiana early this morning but was beginning to transition to the south. Expect the rain to shift south of all of the terminals by later this morning as the cold front drops south of the Ohio River. While some drier air will work into the boundary layer later today...model soundings show a saturated layer lingering under a shallow inversion below 2kft. This should result in stratus remaining thick through the day with KLAF as the only possible exception where a few breaks may develop. Rain will expand back across the area late tonight as a surface wave tracks along the boundary. Expect rain to become widespread with ceilings and visibilities lowering to sub-IFR levels... especially after 06Z. Winds will remain light and variable throughout the forecast period. && .IND WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...

Outlook: Showers will focus primarily over southern portions of central Indiana today before expanding back across the entire area late tonight. Hazards: Minor flooding of low lying and poor drainage areas and along creeks and streams. Visibilities reduced at times...especially tonight. Timing: Through tonight. Discussion: Rain showers will focus over southern portions of central Indiana today as a cold front settles south of the Ohio River. Low pressure tacking along the boundary into the region tonight will enable rain to overspread all of central Indiana after midnight. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Thursday through Tuesday. Outlook: Periodic chances for rain and the recent snow melt may enable flooding to continue in low lying and poor drainage areas...and along rivers and streams into this weekend. Discussion: Several frontal systems and upper waves will bring unsettled weather to central Indiana through the second half of this week and into the weekend. Snow may briefly mix in with rain during the early morning Friday...Sunday and Monday. .SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT... Spotter activation is not anticipated. && More information, along with other weather, hydrological and climate information can be found at http://weather.gov/ind Ryan
