$$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 Northern Indiana wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at May 19, 1:29 AM EDT, 24 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, May 19, 1:29 AM EDT, 24 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Northern Indiana
128 APM EDT Tue May 19 2020
.SYNOPSIS...
Issued at 315 PM EDT Mon May 18 2020
An upper low will remain over the region through the middle of
the week and bring cool weather and rounds of rain, especially
through Tuesday. Rain soaked grounds will continue to be
favorable for runoff and flooding of low lying areas and rivers.
The axis of heaviest rain has moved eastward into Ohio, and should
mainly be focused there through this evening. Conditions should be
drier Wednesday and Thursday.
&&
.SHORT TERM...(This Evening through Tuesday)
Issued at 315 PM EDT Mon May 18 2020
The low pressure system is currently centered over Illinois. As
such, tropical moisture continues to be pulled up into the region
by strong southerly flow ahead of said low. Bands of moderate to
heavy rain also continue, but have shifted somewhat eastward,
leaving the western half of the forecast area under broken skies.
This has allowed temperatures there to warm into the mid 60s, and
the surface to become just slightly unstable. There is high shear
to the west in the vicinity of the low center, which will move
slightly eastward this evening. Convection may develop, and if
there is enough surface vorticity, a brief funnel cloud cannot be
ruled out.
To the east, rain is expected to continue through the night,
especially over Ohio. The low will be tracking south overnight,
is then forecast to turn eastward into the Tennessee Valley on
Tuesday. This will shift the trajectory of the rain bands which
will be wrapping around the northeast side of the low, and more
moderate to heavy rain will again be possible over much of
northern Indiana as well. Rain and cloud cover will keep
temperatures below normal on Tuesday with highs only in the low
to mid 60s. Breezy east winds can also be expected.
&&
.LONG TERM...(Tuesday Night through Monday)
Issued at 315 PM EDT Mon May 18 2020
The low will wobble around over Tennessee and Kentucky through
Thursday morning, and then finally lift to the north and then east
by Saturday. Another weaker low is then forecast to move in
quickly from the west on Saturday, followed by a frontal system on
Monday. Showery conditions with diurnal thunderstorms can
therefore be expected through the long term period. Temperatures
will remain cool through mid-week, then gradually warm over the
weekend as high pressure tries to build up from the south. High
temperatures Saturday through Monday should be in the upper 70s to
mid 80s.
&&
.AVIATION...(For the 06Z TAFS through 06Z Tuesday Night)
Issued at 128 APM EDT Tue May 19 2020
IFR met to persist through late morning before improving as robust
low level moisture belt wraps west through nrn periphery of deep H5
circ into wrn KY. Thereafter swd shift of moisture plume along with
ramping erly flow will aide in better mixing with MVFR assumed Tue
aftn. Further improvement to VFR likely invof KSBN timed with
increasing subsidence/drying late period. Otherwise strong erly
gusts this aftn to aoa 25kts.
&&
.MARINE...
Issued at 315 PM EDT Mon May 18 2020
Flooding is also becoming a problem along Lake Michigan. Water
levels were already at record highs, and are forecast to rise even
farther this week. This is in response to prolonged easterly flow
on the north side of the low that is channeling water from Lake
Huron into Lake Michigan, and causing it to build up on the south
side of the lake. This is causing not only coastal flooding, but
water is also backing up into river outlets, facilitating the need
for Lakeshore Flood Warnings despite offshore flow. Additionally,
dense fog is developing over the lake tonight due to very humid
conditions and cooling air over the water.
&&
.HYDROLOGY...
Issued at 315 PM EDT Mon May 18 2020
The forecast area has become saturated by recent heavy rains.
Creeks, streams, and rivers have swollen, and ponding water has
been observed in low lying areas. Several rivers have already
reached flood stage, and minor to moderate flooding is forecast
over the next several days. Fortunately, the heavy rain has been
diminishing this afternoon. However, will keep the Flood Watches
in place for areas east of Hwy 15 through this evening, where
additional rainfall of around 1 inch is possible, especially south
of US-24.
