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 Northern Indiana wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at Nov 3, 6:53 AM EDT, 3 hours 59 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Nov 3, 6:53 AM EDT, 3 hours 59 minutes before

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Northern Indiana
653 AM EDT Sat Nov 3 2018

.SYNOPSIS...
Issued at 328 AM EDT Sat Nov 3 2018

High pressure will briefly build in today with partly cloudy
skies, light winds, and highs in the upper 40s to mid 50s. A warm
front will bring increasing clouds and perhaps a few showers to
the area tonight into Sunday morning, best chances across
northwest Indiana and southwest Lower Michigan. Lows tonight will
range between the upper 30s to mid 40s. An active weather pattern
is then expected later Sunday into next week with several periods
of rain and near normal temperatures trending cold for the second
half of next week.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(Today and Tonight)
Issued at 328 AM EDT Sat Nov 3 2018

Lake effect clouds and isolated sprinkles/light showers should
diminish through early this afternoon across nw IN/sw MI as
shortwave ridging allows a weak sfc ridge to progress into the local
area this afternoon. Dry conditions/light winds otherwise today with
some sunshine and highs in upper 40s to low 50s.

Elevated warm advection/isentropic ascent wing, preceding low
pressure organizing near the Iowa/Missouri border, will lift through
the area later this evening into early Sunday morning. High
condensation pressure deficits on isentropic surfaces with deeper
ascent/moisture focusing west across the Mid/Upper MS Valley
support holding with low-mid chance PoPs (highest nw IN/sw MI)
and light QPF. Warm advection process/southerly flow results in a
milder night otherwise with lows in the upper 30s to mid 40s.

&&

.LONG TERM...(Sunday through Friday)
Issued at 328 AM EDT Sat Nov 3 2018

Three systems to monitor Sunday into next week in active flow regime
as pacific shortwaves amplify into a Central Conus mean upper
trough...then lift northeast and take on a negative tilt through the
Great Lakes/Midwest.

First sfc cyclone occludes north into Wisconsin by later
Sunday/Sunday night, with good deep layer QG support and enough
moisture return in convergent LLJ core to support a period of rain
west to east later Sunday into Sunday night along and in advance of
a trailing cold front.

Brief lull on Monday will give way to a soaking rain and strong
winds Monday night into Tuesday as a moisture laden system deepens
northeast through the Mid MS Valley and Great Lakes. Tight low level
height gradient and deepening mixed layer could support advisory
level winds on Tuesday if the sfc cyclone deepens/phases as
modeled into the northern Great Lakes. A quick inch plus of rain
(embedded thunder?) will also be possible given the gulf tap and
deep omega, with relatively fast movement hopefully limiting the
flooding threat.

Much cooler and mainly dry then to follow into Wednesday and early
Thursday before system #3 moves through around late Thursday/Friday.
Spatial and temporal solution spreads in guidance obviously high at
this forecast range, but this wave will have some cold air to
work with (swath of snow on nrn fringe for somewhere across the
Upper Midwest/Great Lakes?).

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 12Z TAFS through 12Z Sunday Morning)
Issued at 645 AM EDT Sat Nov 3 2018

A weak high pressure ridge will continue to keep VFR conditions
through much of the TAF period. The ridge was part of a large
system that was over the Canadian interior. As the ridge moves
east across the Upper Great Lakes region, winds will become
southeast this evening on the back side of the ridge and ahead of
a deep low pressure area moving into the Midwest. Continued to
carry lower VFR clouds at SBN given abundant moisture in the
900/800 layer per aircraft/TAMDAR obs. Warm air advection may be
sufficient to allow for some showers late.

&&

.IWX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
IN...NONE.
MI...NONE.
OH...NONE.
LM...Gale Warning from 3 AM Sunday to 1 AM EST Monday for LMZ043-046.
