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 Feb 18, 11:37 AM CST, 14 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Feb 18, 11:37 AM CST, 14 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Indianapolis IN
1237 PM EST Tue Feb 18 2020

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

&&

.SYNOPSIS...
Issued at 324 AM EST Tue Feb 18 2020

A cold front will move through the area today, with showers and/or
drizzle coming to an end and temperatures turning colder for mid
week. Strong high pressure will keep things dry but cool through
the end of the week into the start of the weekend. One or more low
pressure systems late in the weekend into early next week look to
provide a return to milder temperatures but also our next chances
for precipitation.

&&

.NEAR TERM /Today/...
Issued at 324 AM EST Tue Feb 18 2020

A cold front will push through the area today, which will
gradually bring an end to any lingering showers or drizzle. Will
steadily decrease pops from northwest to southeast through the
morning before going dry in the afternoon. Forecast soundings do
show some residual saturation aloft, but a deep low level dry
layer should keep any of this from manifesting as precipitation
reaching the ground this afternoon.

High temperatures should be reached early in the day and will
likely be near or only slightly above morning lows. Temperatures
will gradually fall later in the day as cold advection quickly
ramps up behind the front. Bumped blend max temps down to match
these expectations.

&&

.SHORT TERM /Tonight through Thursday Night/...
Issued at 324 AM EST Tue Feb 18 2020

The entirety of the short term looks to be dry as a large 1040
millibar plus dome of Canadian high pressure settles over the
central and eastern part of the country. This leaves temperatures
as the main variable, which the blend generally handled well, Did
make minor downward adjustments in a few periods per GFS low level
thermal progs.

&&

.LONG TERM /Friday through Monday/...
Issued at 242 AM EST Tue Feb 18 2020

Good confidence in dry weather and slightly below temperatures to
start off the long term on Friday as surface high pressure moves
over the Ohio Valley and the South. Then, return flow around the
high and perturbations ahead of an upper southern Plains trough
supports a warmup on Saturday and chance PoPs by Saturday night.
The trough and associated frontal system are expected to move
through sometime early next week.

Blend temperature trends looks good but with models having some
temporal and spacial differences with the aforementioned system,
confidence in temperatures to within a few degrees is not great late
in the long term.

&&

.AVIATION /Discussion for 181800Z TAF Issuance/...

Issued at 1232 PM EST Tue Feb 18 2020

Have moved back timing of cigs climbing to VFR and eventually
clearing terminals by a few hours. Models too fast with clearing
given latest satellite and surface observations. Visible imagery
showing quite a bit of diurnal stratocu developing across NE IL
into NW Indiana. However, drier air and subsidence associated with
building high pressure also starting to erode western flank of
these clouds. Thus a few hour delay expected but eventual VFR and
clearing skies by later this afternoon and evening across central
Indiana. VFR remainder of period.

.IND WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
