Area forecast discussion, Jun 10, 4:20 PM EDT, 41 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Northern Indiana 420 PM EDT Wed Jun 10 2020 .SYNOPSIS... Issued at 420 PM EDT Wed Jun 10 2020 Showers and storms exit into central Ohio this evening with drier, less humid and breezy conditions. Quiet weather will prevail for the next several days. There is just a low chance of a showere late Friday night into Saturday. Otherwise, it will be dry with seasonably cool temperatures through the weekend. Temperatures will gradually warm early next week. && .SHORT TERM...(This Afternoon through Thursday) Issued at 410 PM EDT Wed Jun 10 2020 Misovorticies along mid level moisture/dryline interface taking advantage of favorable environment /3000-3500 J/kg SBCAPE and 50-55 knots effective layer shear/ upstream environment. Strong/near uni-directional flow providing storm motion 60-70 mph to north-northeast. Accelerating downdraft/weak reflectivity notches easily producing severe limit winds with a few significant/extreme damaging wind events this afternoon. Will continue to follow line and cancel watch with eastward progression and expect to clear east of CWA by 2230 UTC. Slight bump in winds for both this evening and midday Thursday with steep low level lapse rates/momentum transfer. Full airmass exchange for Thursday/dry and notably less humid and seasonably cool. && .LONG TERM...(Thursday Night through Tuesday) Issued at 410 PM EDT Wed Jun 10 2020 Gradual building Plains ridge through the weekend with continued north central Canadian waves digging through downstream side of ridge. There are weak signals for a clipper like system to bring a low chance showers late Friday night into early Saturday. Thereafter, surface/aloft ridging to envelop Upper Great Lakes offers continuation of dry conditions and thermal moderation early next week. && .AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Thursday Afternoon) Issued at 122 PM EDT Wed Jun 10 2020 A 40 kt low level jet pushes towards the region ahead of a strong cold front. Gusty synoptic winds are expected today between 25 and 30 kts out of the southwest before dying off after midnight tonight. Thunderstorms will have the potential to create damaging winds as well as the possibility of large hail and isolated tornadoes. Heavy rain from thunderstorms will have the potential to reduce CIGs/VISBY into IFR to LIFR threshold, but quick storm motions should make those conditions brief. Storms should be out of the area during the evening/early overnight. Then, a brief period of MVFR CIGs are possible around 3z-5z as a secondary CAA area moves through. Winds will continue to die down and clouds will clear Thursday as the remnants of Cristobal move away from the area. && .IWX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
