Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Indianapolis IN
845 PM EDT Mon Aug 10 2020

.UPDATE...
Mesoscale Discussion updated

&&

.SYNOPSIS...
Issued at 340 PM EDT Mon Aug 10 2020

Severe weather is likely this evening with the main threat being
damaging winds across the region. An unsettled pattern remains for
much of the forecast period leading to daily chances for rain and
storms.

&&

.MESOSCALE /9PM EDT TO 11PM EDT Tonight/...
Issued at 845 PM EDT Mon Aug 10 2020

Line of severe storms continues to push southeast; however,
latest guidance indicates the cold pool associated with this
convective system diminishing as is the potency of the juiced
atmosphere. Satellite IR indicates cloud tops are not warming just
yet, which suggests some maintenance to the system at this time,
but anticipating over the next couple of hours to see a steady
decline and warming to the cloud tops or becoming less vertical.
Line of convection has reached along a ragged line from New Castle
to Bloomington to Near Vincennes. The axis of very potent MU-CAPE
has also shifted south and fallen from it's peak earlier this
evening to around 2-3K J/KG, while the footprint of convective
inhibition steadily grown. There is still substantial moisture
available in the lowest 0-3km layer, as dewpoints at the surface
continue to be in the lower to middle 70s. DCAPE along to just
ahead of the line of storms in the 1000-1200 J/KG. This coupled
with the continueing convection could still lead to strong to
severe storms with winds being the main hazard.

Guidance continues to suggest the boundary will drift south and
likely provide a diminishing trend to convetion/precipitation
overnight or at least after midnight.

&&

.NEAR TERM /Rest of This Afternoon and Tonight/...
Issued at 338 PM EDT Mon Aug 10 2020

...Significant Severe Weather with Widespread Damaging Winds to
Impact central Indiana This Evening...

After the stormy start to the morning for some...skies had cleared
across central Indiana. With deep moisture and strong heating...
temperatures have shot up into the mid and upper 80s over much of
the forecast area as of 19Z. Low 90s had developed along the Wabash
Valley. With oppressive dewpoints ranging from the mid 70s to near
80...heat indices were in the 90s and low 100s currently.

The focus for the next several hours is on a high confidence...high
impact derecho with widespread damaging winds that began early this
morning in the northern Plains and now sits in eastern Iowa and
western Illinois. The amount of observed wind reports in excess of
90 mph from this complex over Iowa is for lack of a better term...
alarming. The airmass this afternoon has the feel of a capped powder
keg and mesoanalysis shows that SBCAPEs have surged since late
morning...and are now in excess of 5000 j/kg. With a few more hours
of heating...these values are likely to only increase ahead of the
approaching convective complex. In addition...mid level lapse rates
have increased to near 8 C/km immediately downwind of the derecho
and now into our western counties. The complex has a well developed
cold pool that will keep its engine running for the next several
hours.

In an nutshell...the airmass downstream of the convective complex
supports a continued high confidence in severe weather across
northern and central Illinois and by this evening...across the
forecast area as the complex is likely to pivot and follow the theta-
e ridge and instability gradient right into central Indiana. All
severe threats are on the table but clearly...the damaging wind
concerns are greatest considering what has already taken place...a
strengthening westerly low level jet and the amount of instability
already in place across the area. Timing for greatest impacts will
be from northwest to southeast from 22Z through 02-03Z. In addition
to the severe weather concern... flooding will become a
threat...particularly in areas that saw 1-2 inches this morning.
Also...derechos tend to be prolific lightning producers and the
approaching convective cluster certainly appears to be just that.

Should see convection diminish in coverage after midnight...although
the presence of the westerly 850mb jet at least initially in the
overnight may enable a backbuilding component to convection. Will
maintain chance pops through the overnight although the greater risk
for rain is the first half of the night.

Temps...did not stray from NBM guidance too much as lows should fall
back into the upper 60s and lower 70s overnight in wake of the
convective complex.

&&

.SHORT TERM /Tomorrow through Thursday/...

Issued at 340 PM EDT Mon Aug 10 2020

The area will wit under an unsettle pattern for the short term as
a couple of disturbances move overhead. This will lead to daily
chances of scattered rain and storms. Best PoPs at the moment are
for late tomorrow through Wednesday... could possibly see a weak
surface low pass through bringing in the rain. Temperatures look
to be near to slightly above normal with highs in the mid 80s and
lows in the upper 60s.

&&

.LONG TERM /Thursday Night through Monday/...

Issued at 340 PM EDT Mon Aug 10 2020

A couple of disturbances look to impact the area in the long term,
prompting daily rain chances. Models show a cold front passing
through the area sometime Sunday to Monday... should get a better
idea on timing as it gets closer. Temperatures will be near
normal. Largely accepted guidance as it looked reasonable.

&&

.AVIATION (Discussion for the 110000Z TAF Issuance)...
Issued at 716 PM EDT Mon Aug 10 2020

Poor flying conditions in convection expected early in the period,
then generally VFR.

Convection will continue to move across mainly the southern sites
for the first few hours of the TAF period. After a lull, additional
convection is possible overnight. Used VC or TEMPO as appropriate.
Additional convection is possible on Tuesday, but confidence is not
high enough to add into the TAF at the moment.

Generally VFR conditions are expected outside convection, but will
watch for the possibility of some MVFR conditions Tuesday morning.
