Flood Statement
National Weather Service Indianapolis IN
1144 AM EST Wed Feb 12 2020
...A Flood Warning continues for portions of the following waterways
in Indiana...
Driftwood River...East Fork White River...Wabash River...White
River...
.Flooding is underway along several central and southern Indiana
waterways as a result of up to 2 inches of precipitation that fell
Sunday into Monday. Another precipitation event this Wednesday and
early Wednesday night will bring up to an inch of water, heaviest
south. This latter event will bring secondary crests to waterways at
some locations and prolong the original crest at others.
The White River will see crests up to about 5 feet above flood stage
and the Wabash will see crests up to about 3 feet. Predictions are
holding steady for flooding along the lower reaches of the Wabash and
White Rivers to last through the end of next week. Flooding on the
East Fork White River is expected to be confined to primarily
the Seymour area, with two crests around 14.6 feet.
Today's forecast model run of expected crests is largely similar to
yesterday's. This will give us crests lower than what we saw in
January.
Flood impacts should mainly be confined to roads near the waterways,
agricultural land, bottomlands, and levees. Please see the specific
impacts listed for your location of interest below or by going to
the web page described below.
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.

Rain and snow is expected to develop ahead of the Low...spreading across Central Indiana this afternoon and continuing tonight. Accumulating snow...mainly north of I-70...will be expected late this afternoon and tonight. Precipitation will begin to taper off on Thursday morning as the low departs the east. However a secondary arctic cold front is then expected to sweep across Indiana on Thursday. This will once again bring chances for a quick shot of accumulating snow. Very Cold...Winter like temperatures will then arrive for Friday and Saturday. The cold snap will be brief however, with temperatures moderating early next week. && .NEAR TERM /Today/... Issued at 138 AM EST Wed Feb 12 2020 Surface analysis early this morning shows high pressure in place over the Ohio Valley. Water vapor imagery really tells the story today. a tropical plume of moisture was stretching across TX...into the plains and then east across the Ohio Valley. This plume was in response to a deep trough over the American southwest...with southerly flow ahead of it. National Radar Mosaics show rain beneath the tropical plume ahead of the low over Texas and Arkansas streaming northeast within the flow. Models suggest the deep upper trough to the southwest will begin to push east today. This will adjust the tropical flow ahead of the trough toward the Ohio Valley this afternoon and tonight. Meanwhile at the surface low pressure is expected to develop ahead of the trough over Arkansas and begin to push northeast toward Tennessee and Kentucky through Night. Strong isentropic lift arrives in Central Indiana this afternoon with specific humidities over 4 g/kg. Forecast soundings at that time show a saturated column...and the far majority of the column below 0C. Thus will trend toward mainly a snow forecast along I-70. Not much farther south...at Bloomington...forecast soundings are above 0C...thus rain there. Pwats this afternoon and evening are near 0.81 inches and given the tropical flow aloft...this system could have the potential to over perform. Thus will continue with near 100 pops across the board today...keeping the rain/snow line close to the previous forecast. Collaboration still ongoing with surrounding offices today...and will leave headline in place at this time...however...should this system overperform...upgrades may be needed. && .SHORT TERM /Tonight through Friday Night/... Issued at 138 AM EST Wed Feb 12 2020 GFS and NAM suggest the tropical flow associated with this feature will deflect east overnight as the upper trough to the west combines with a stronger upper trough dropping out of the northern plains. This should result in a quick departure of the surface low on Tonight. In response...forecast soundings show a loss of deep moisture as well as forcing...as time heights show subsidence in play within the middle and high levels. Still lower levels appear saturated through the day on Thursday. Furthermore...the models agree a strong arctic front will push across Indiana on Thursday...providing some forcing for additional snowfall. Pwats at that time still lingering near 0.5 on late tonight and Thursday...but continue to fall as the dry air continues to fill into the column with the associated subsidence. Thus will continue snow pop chances on Thursday morning...tapering lower as the day progresses and the cold air arrives. The strong upper trough is expected to push across the region on Friday...followed by some ridging aloft for Friday night and Saturday amid the mainly NW flow aloft. Meanwhile at the surface strong arctic high pressure will be moving through the area through Saturday...with return flow arriving by mid day Saturday. Forecast soundings on Friday through Saturday Night show a very dry column along with subsidence in play. Thus will trend toward partly cloudy and very cold conditions. New snow fall on Friday morning may allow for ideal radiational cooling conditions and will trend lows at or below the NBM where snow cover will be expected. Wind chills on Friday morning may be within the 0C to -10C range. && .LONG TERM /Saturday through Wednesday/... Issued at 258 AM EST Wed Feb 12 2020 Active pattern continues for the end of the week heading into the weekend and early next week. 500mb trough axis will be pivoting east towards the Ohio Valley/Great Lakes Sat, with a quick surge of south/southwest flow air ahead of this trough. This will likely set the stage for temps warming up into the upper 30s to lower 40s by Sun, then even warmer air arrives for Mon/Tue when highs may push into the lower/middle 50s. Longer term guidance indicates a deepening trough across the Southwest CONUS for early next week, will likely lead to a setup of continued active pattern for early next week. && .AVIATION /Discussion for the 15Z TAF Update/... Issued at 909 AM EST Wed Feb 12 2020 Updated current condition. Current forecast looks very similar to 12Z issuance. No significant changes made. Previous discussion as follows... VFR conds will kick-off the day; however, as the morning progresses precipitation will arrive from the southwest and in addition lowering CIGs. Expect by midday to early afternoon CIGs to diminish to IFR conds, then as precip begins to transition over to a mix or rain and snow, that will likely produce VSBYs less than one mile, and at times if the snow becomes heavier for KLAF VSBYs could briefly touch one quarter mile. Further south for KIND/KHUF and KBMG, VSBYs and CIGs will eventually fall to IFR or lower conds overnight with light to at times moderate snow and VSBYs between one half and one mile. All precip will begin to shift east of the area Thursday morning. && .IND WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
