1010 PM EST Sat Jan 18 2020
...A Flood Warning continues for portions of the following waterways
in Indiana...
East Fork White River...Eel River...Mississinewa River...Wabash
River...White River...
.Minor to moderate flooding continued Saturday night in
central and southern Indiana on the major rivers. Crests will be/are
comparable to those that occurred in February and June of 2019. On
the Eel and Mississinewa, minor flooding has developed.
Mixed precipitation yesterday and today has totaled up to about
1.50 inches, which will slow river falls or bring lower secondary
crests on the major rivers, and produce additional minor flooding on
smaller ones. Flooding may recur at Seymour on the East Fork White
River and Spencer on the White River.
Flooding along the lower portions of the White and Wabash Rivers
will continue until the last few days of the month.
Our next precipitation event in the forecast does not arrive until
Friday, thus we will have several dry days to allow for drainage of
area waterways.
Precautionary/Preparedness Actions...
Motorists should never drive into flood water. Turn around and go
another way. Keep children away from flooded areas. Recreational and
agricultural interests should remain alert to changing river
conditions.

Flood Statement
National Weather Service Indianapolis IN
1029 AM EST Sun Jan 19 2020
...A Flood Warning continues for portions of the following waterways
in Indiana...
East Fork White River...Eel River...Wabash River...White River...
.Minor to moderate flooding continued Sunday morning in central and
southern Indiana on the major rivers. Crests will be/are comparable
to those that occurred in February and June of 2019. Minor
flooding developed late Saturday afternoon on the Eel River that
will come to an end this afternoon.
A mix of precipitation Friday and Saturday totaled as high as
approximately 1.50 inches, which will slow river falls or bring
lower secondary crests on the major rivers, and produce additional
minor flooding on smaller ones. Flooding has returned to Seymour on
the East Fork White River, and this afternoon it will return to
Spencer on the White River. The Driftwood River near Edinburgh will
be near bankfull, with a crest near flood stage Sunday morning.
Flooding along the lower portions of the White and Wabash Rivers will
continue until about Wednesday, January 29.
Little or no precipitation is forecast through midday Thursday. This
will give area waterways several days to drain and return to near
normal levels.
Precautionary/Preparedness Actions...
Motorists should never drive into flood water. Turn around and go
another way. Keep children away from flooded areas. Recreational and
agricultural interests should remain alert to changing river
conditions.

BHWhat 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 Jan 18, 6:58 PM EST, 31 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Jan 18, 6:58 PM EST, 31 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Indianapolis IN 658 PM EST Sat Jan 18 2020 .UPDATE... The AVIATION Section has been updated below. && .SYNOPSIS... Issued at 241 PM EST Sat Jan 18 2020 Cool temperatures are expected over the next few days in the aftermath of a strong upper level low pressure system that brought mixed precipitation to the area over the last 24 hours. Dry weather and high pressure will continue until the later portions of the work week as two upper level low pressure systems bring chances for precipitation to the area on Friday. && .NEAR TERM /Tonight/... Issued at 241 PM EST Sat Jan 18 2020 Dry weather is expected for tonight as temperatures plummet in the aftermath of the passage of a surface cold front. Temperatures will fall from the mid 20s at 7 PM to the mid teens by midnight. Temperatures will continue to fall to around 10 degrees by tomorrow morning. The ongoing wind gusts of around 40 mph will begin to weaken to the 20 to 30 mph range tonight which combined with the low temperatures will lead to wind chills around -10 degrees in the northern counties. Will plan on issuing a SPS to highlight the cold wind chills tomorrow morning. Current thoughts are that the risks for a flash freeze will be relatively limited as the afternoon and evening wind gusts allow for wet surfaces to dry. Areas where water has ponded will likely freeze by the morning hours. Low clouds will likely linger through the night with some dissipation during the day tomorrow. && .SHORT TERM /Sunday through Tuesday/... Issued at 241 PM EST Sat Jan 18 2020 Dry weather is expected through the period as strong surface high pressure builds across the Upper Midwest. Strong cold air advection and northwesterly flow will help bring seasonably cool temperatures with lows in the low to mid teens Sunday night and Monday night. Winds will gradually weaken tomorrow and tomorrow night so wind chills are not expected to be as cold Sunday night into Monday morning, but will still fall to near 0 across much of central Indiana. A weak upper level low will move across the Upper Midwest down into Missouri during the day Monday which will bring a short break to the northwest flow and allow for skies to begin to clear. The core of the surface high pressure will then move over central Indiana during the day Tuesday which will lead to mostly sunny skies and nearly calm winds. Temperatures will be well below average through the period with lows in the low to mid teens Monday night and Tuesday night. Highs will reach only into the mid to upper teens on Sunday followed by the mid 20s to low 30s on Monday and Tuesday. && .LONG TERM (Tuesday Night Through Saturday)... Issued at 218 PM EST Sat Jan 18 2020 Models are close enough that the National Blend of Models initialization was accepted for most items. An upper ridge and surface high pressure will provide dry conditions through much of Thursday. An upper level low will move into the area to end the week, but of course this far out there remains a lot of uncertainty on timing, strength, and location. Thus will make no changes to the initialization's PoPs for the end of the week at this time. The initialization will put a rain/snow mix in during the overnights late next week, but, depending on the storm track, temperatures might stay just warm enough for rain. Temperatures look to be above normal for much of the period. && .AVIATION /Discussion for the 19/00Z TAF Issuance/... Issued at 640 PM EST Sat Jan 18 2020 Precipitation has pretty much ended across the TAF sites. However, MVFR ceilings will linger due to trapped low level moisture. There could be some brief periods of VFR at times, but generally MVFR. In addition, the winds will remain strong out of the northwest with sustained speeds of 13 to 20 kts and gusts to 34 kts. Gusts will taper off after daybreak Sunday. && .IND WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...NONE. && SYNOPSIS...White NEAR TERM...White SHORT TERM...White LONG TERM....50 AVIATION...TDUD
