Area forecast discussion, Mar 3, 9:26 AM CST, 50 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Indianapolis IN 1026 AM EST Tue Mar 3 2020 .UPDATE... The Near Term and AVIATION Sections have been updated below. && .SYNOPSIS... Issued at 332 AM EST Tue Mar 3 2020 Several weak systems will bring chances for precipitation to parts of the area at times through Friday. A cold front will bring more rain chances early next week. Temperatures will be above normal for much of the time into next week. && .NEAR TERM...(Rest of Today) Issued at 1026 AM EST Tue Mar 3 2020 For the update, added a chance for sprinkles in the northeast counties for a few hours late this afternoon based on some returns from the hi res models and increased cloud cover for the same area during that time. No other appreciable changes made. May issue an SPS to highlight wind gusts of 35 to 40 mph this afternoon. Relevant parts of previous discussion follow... This afternoon, the upper trough axis will move in. Hi-res short term models try to develop some convection with this across the far northern forecast area. For now believe better chances will be just north of the area closer to better forcing, so will leave the afternoon dry. Will have to keep an eye out though. The next issue will be winds. A decent pressure gradient develops across the area, and low level winds increase a bit with cold advection aloft. Thus expect a breezy day today. Bufkit soundings and short term models show gusts into the 30-35kt range this afternoon. Otherwise clouds will gradually decrease today. Temperatures should be able to reach the NBM highs with some sunshine expected. && .SHORT TERM...(Tonight through Thursday night) Issued at 332 AM EST Tue Mar 3 2020 Models are close enough that the National Blend of Models initialization was accepted for most items. The evening will be quiet, but overnight a compact short wave will approach from the northwest. This could produce some light rain across the far northwest late, so will have some slight chance PoPs there. On Wednesday, this wave will move through during the morning. Moisture isn't great, but there looks to be enough forcing to have some slight chance PoPs north. Quiet weather will then return Wednesday afternoon through the day Thursday with central Indiana in between systems. On Thursday night a stronger upper trough moves in. Moisture again isn't that great, but enough forcing will be around for some low PoPs. NBM temperatures look reasonable through the short term. && .LONG TERM /Friday through Monday/... Issued at 226 AM EST Tue Mar 3 2020 Ensembles indicate a progressive upper flow can be expected across the area during this period. A trough will be dropping southeast through the eastern Great Lakes on Friday. Most of the energy with this trough looks to stay off to the northeast of the local area. Will go with some chance PoPs for light mixed precipitation on Friday, mainly over the eastern zones. Fairly strong upper ridging is expected to drift across the area over the upcoming weekend. Will keep the forecast dry from Friday night through Sunday night. Ensembles suggest a short wave trough may eject out of a long wave trough along the West Coast, into the Midwest by next Monday. Will bring PoPs for rain back into the forecast for next Monday. && .AVIATION /Discussion for the 031500Z TAFS/... Issued at 1026 AM EST Tue Mar 3 2020 Some diurnal cloud cover based 030-040 may develop within the cold advection pattern this afternoon. Surface winds should settle to a 250-270 degree range by the late morning hours, as surface low pressure passes off to the east. A developing tight pressure gradient in the wake of the low will result in good potential for frequent surface gusts in excess of 30 kts this afternoon. && .IND WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
