Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Indianapolis IN
929 AM EDT Wed Jun 30 2021

.Forecast Update...
Issued at 928 AM EDT Wed Jun 30 2021

The initial round of heavy rain that moved through the Indy metro
area has exited to the east and begun to weaken as it moves into
east central Indiana. Another stronger cell continues to move
through north central Indiana, but is currently moving into an
area that has received a fair amount of rain, so expect that area
to weaken as well. The third area of precipitation is across the
southern counties which is in an area of slightly higher shear and
instability and will be the focus point for late morning and
afternoon convection. Expect much of the morning precipitation to
gradually weaken with additional showers and storms to fire back
up after 18Z when CAPE should rebound in the 1500-2000J/kg range
even with the expected thick clouds over the area. Strong moisture
and warm air advection should be more than enough to provide the
instability needed later today.

Have tried to fine-tune the POPs to reflect all these different
aspects with a gradual increase in coverage by mid to late
afternoon.  With the relative lack of upper level support and mid
level shear, not expecting any severe weather.  Slow storm motions
could lead to isolated flooding, especially in areas that received
rain this morning. Expect highs to reach into the low 80s for much
of the area with generally light surface winds.

&&

.Short Term...(Today through Thursday)
Issued at 255 AM EDT Wed Jun 30 2021

Much of the forecast area is free of convection at the moment early
this morning...but there are a few showers drifting into southern
Jackson County and a couple of leftover light showers and sprinkles
over the northern Wabash Valley. 0630Z temperatures were in the 70s
with mid and high level clouds across the region.

Convective coverage will peak over the forecast area during the next
24-36 hours as the frontal boundary that has been to the northwest
of the area for the last few days drops into the region. T he strong
upper trough tracking through eastern Canada this morning will
finally begin to flatten and weaken the ridge over much of the
eastern U S today and Thursday and will become the dominant
influence on our weather as low pressure closes off over the eastern
Great Lakes on Thursday and amplifies the parent trough. IN tandem
with the diffuse frontal boundary moving into the region and
eventually shifting to our south by late day Thursday...a more
unsettled pattern is expected through Thursday with the recent hot
and humid airmass we have experienced being shoved to the south as
well.

Mesoscale parameters will drive the convective evolution which may
begin even prior to daybreak this morning. Plenty of leftover
outflow boundaries across the region courtesy of Tuesday afternoon
and evening convection along with an area of moisture convergence
that appears to be aligned near some sort of boundary extending east
from Illinois into the forecast area. There is weak elevated
instability already this morning but with convective inhibition and
a sharp low level inversion present...convection has been largely
minimal since late last evening. Expect showers and storms to remain
largely isolated to scattered through the morning with a steady
uptick in coverage into the afternoon as instability increases and
interacts with the tropical airmass across the Ohio Valley.

The remnant outflows and the main frontal boundary dropping south
will both serve to enhance storm development later with the tail end
of the amplifying upper level trough providing more organized
forcing aloft as well. While model soundings do show another
favorable setup for damaging winds from stronger cells as cores
collapse ...the main concern from showers and storms again will be
heavy rainfall and localized flooding with a high freezing level
supporting warm rain processes and weak steering flow suggestive of
slower moving convection. The threat for storms producing heavy rain
will continue tonight with loss of diurnal heating taking any small
threat for damaging winds out of the equation. High pops are
warranted for this afternoon through tonight.

The frontal boundary will continue to slide south slowly on Thursday
with the axis of deepest moisture shifting to the southern half of
the state. Convective coverage will gradually shift south as well
through the day with the front settling into the northern Tennessee
Valley by Thursday evening. A nice surge of much drier air will
advect south through the western Great Lakes on the back side of the
amplifying trough...eventually working into the forecast area from
the north on Thursday afternoon. There will be a noticeable drop in
humidity levels by late day Thursday with the arrival of the drier
airmass and subsidence...and expect some clearing as well from the
north late day that will expand south across the rest of the area by
Thursday evening as high pressure builds in.

Temps...cooler temperatures are expected today and Thursday with
much greater cloud and precipitation coverage over the region. Low
level thermals support generally mid 80s for highs today with upper
70s to lower 80s on Thursday. Lows will finally fall back into the
mid and upper 60s across much of central Indiana tonight with cooler
nights on the horizon for Thursday night heading into the weekend.

&&

.Long Term...(Thursday Night through Tuesday)
Issued at 255 AM EDT Wed Jun 30 2021

Ensemble means suggest an upper trough will pass south through the
local area Thursday night or Friday morning. In the wake of this
trough, rather flat upper ridging will develop over the weekend, and
on into early next week. At the surface, a cold front associated
with the upper trough is expected to pass south of the local area
Thursday night.

Will keep some PoPs over the southeast zones Thursday night to cover
the exiting cold front.

Otherwise, ensemble members are in better agreement today with
respect to the upper trough, with the lingering more westerly
solutions disappearing. As a result, ensembles indicate little
threat for precipitation in the Friday to Monday time frame. Will
take out any remaining PoPs during this period.

Appears the next chance for precipitation may be next Tuesday, when
convection associated with a developing warm advection pattern is
possible. Will go with chance PoPs for next Tuesday.

.Aviation...(12Z TAF Issuance)
Issued at 628 AM EDT Wed Jun 30 2021

IMPACTS:

* Periodic showers and thunderstorms today impacting all terminals
* Brief restrictions within storms otherwise VFR conditions
* MVFR ceilings developing predawn hours Thursday

DISCUSSION: Convection has gradually increased in coverage over the
last few hours in the vicinity of the I-70 corridor. Initially
through mid morning as additional upscale growth occurs...KHUF and
KIND are the most likely locations to be impacted. By the afternoon
though...expect numerous convection across all of central Indiana
with potential impacts at all terminals. Brief restrictions are
possible within showers and storms.

Storms are likely to continue overnight as a slow moving cold front
slides south through the region. MVFR ceilings will develop late
tonight through daybreak Thursday. Winds will be predominant from
the W/NW through much of the forecast period at 5-6kts or less.
