Area Forecast Discussion

412 AM EDT Fri Mar 20 2020

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

.SYNOPSIS...
Issued at 305 AM EDT Fri Mar 20 2020

A cold front will drop southeast across central Indiana this morning
and early afternoon. This will bring an end to the showers but bring
in much colder temperatures.

The next chance of showers will be Sunday and Sunday night when a
Plains system moves in. Warmer temperatures will return by next
Wednesday and showers will again be possible at times next Tuesday
through Thursday as two more systems move through.

&&

.NEAR TERM /Today/...

Issued at 314 AM EDT Fri Mar 20 2020

Temperatures will be rapidly falling through the day in the
aftermath of the passage of a surface cold front. As of 3 AM, the
front was located across northwest Illinois and is expected to
move through central Indiana during the mid morning hours.
Flooding will be a concern through the day today as a result of
over 3 inches of rain that fell across south central Indiana
yesterday and through the overnight hours. The bulk of the rain
will exit the area over the next few hours with additional light
precipitation possible as the front passes during the mid morning
hours today.

Winds will be gusting in excess of 30 mph at times today as a
result of the frontal passage and strong pressure gradient forces
that are in play. Morning temperatures will be in the low to mid
60s with temps in the upper 30s in the northern counties by this
evening.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(Tonight through Sunday night)
Issued at 305 AM EDT Fri Mar 20 2020

Models in good agreement that Canadian high pressure will move
across the Great Lakes and bring dry but much colder weather to
central Indiana through Saturday night. Blend temperatures look
reasonable with overnight lows tonight 25 to 30 degrees and highs on
Saturday only in the 40s.

As the high moves into Quebec on Sunday, an upper system will
approach from the central Plains and a weak inverted system will
stretch from Louisiana to eastern Kentucky. This will bring more
showers in. Light snow could briefly mix in at the onset Sunday
morning over southwestern parts and prior to moving out overnight
Sunday night over eastern parts. This should not be impactful.

With the Canadian high to the northeast, temperatures should recover
a few degrees on Sunday.

&&

.LONG TERM /Monday through Thursday/...
Issued at 251 AM EDT Fri Mar 20 2020

Models in good agreement that ridging will result in dry weather to
start off the long term. However, a Plains system will bring more
rain showers to the area Tuesday and Tuesday night. Decent return
flow in advance of this system lends good confidence in decent
coverage.

After that, confidence not is great in PoPs. That said, a weak low
pressure system could bring more rain showers to the area, mainly
Thursday per the blend.

Good confidence that near normal temperatures in the 50s on Monday
will moderate to above normal by Wednesday with 60s looking good per
the blend.

&&

.AVIATION /Discussion for 20/09Z TAF Update/...

Issued at 410 AM EDT Fri Mar 20 2020

Increased winds based on latest observations with no major changes
needed otherwise. The bulk of the rain has ended, but brief heavy
showers continue to impact the terminals with gusts in excess of
30 kts during the showers. Previous discussion follows...

Showers and thunderstorms will continue to impact KIND and KBMG
through Friday 11Z. However, confidence is high enough at this
point to remove mention of thunder from KLAF and KHUF. Conditions
have been trending toward mainly VFR with some fluctuations to
MVFR at times. KBMG is currently at MVFR levels with the line of
showers and thunderstorms moving through. Meanwhile, low level
wind shear will also be a threat early in the TAF period due to a
low level jet.

As cooler air moves in this morning, MVFR will become the
predominant flight category around daybreak at KIND and KLAF, but
KHUF and KBMG will be a little later with MVFR moreso in the
afternoon on Friday.
