.Short Term...(This evening through Monday night)
Issued at 259 PM EDT Sun Jun 27 2021

Widely scattered thunderstorms have developed across much of central
Indiana this afternoon, and expect this activity to continue and
perhaps expand/intensify a bit through late afternoon. Activity
should decrease significantly overnight, with most guidance keeping
the bulk of the overnight convection northwest nearest the boundary
and the upper level support in ongoing broad southwest flow aloft.

Bulk shear is minimal across the area this afternoon, confined to a
narrow corridor near the front, so aside from any quick pulse
storms, severe threat is minimal.

Monday looks to be mostly a rinse and repeat of today, although with
the upper trough finally beginning to make some eastward progress,
more activity may stick around into the overnight hours tomorrow
night. Weak shear will again limit any severe threat to pulse storms
at most.

High precipitable water values and seasonably high freezing levels
will continue to combine to produce high precipitation efficiency
and an attendant heavy rain/isolated flood threat along with the
pulse severe threat.

Blend temperatures looked a bit warm tomorrow given temps in recent
days and little change in airmass, but blend is near persistence on
the overnights which is reasonable until frontal passage.

&&

.Long Term...(Tuesday through Sunday)
Issued at 259 PM EDT Sun Jun 27 2021

An upper trough will gradually dig into the area mid to late week.
This will allow the front to gradually move through central Indiana
during that period. This will result in a continuation of PoPs
during the week.

The highest PoPs look to be in the Wednesday and Thursday time
frame, with the surface front in the area. Will go likely or higher
PoPs during this time all areas. Tuesday remains a little in
question on how high to go with PoPs as an upper high might hang on
enough to keep chances down.

High precipitable water values through at least mid-week will keep
the threat for locally heavy rain around. Moisture decreases some by
later Thursday into Friday as the front exits to the south and the
upper trough digs in.

Models continue to differ on the evolution of the upper pattern for
the end of the week into the weekend, especially where an upper low
will develop. There is no clear trend at the moment, so confidence
in PoPs this weekend is very low. Will keep some low PoPs going to
account for solutions with the upper low across the area.

Temperatures will cool to below normal values by late week into the
weekend as the warm and humid airmass is pushed out of the area.

.Aviation...(18Z TAF Issuance)
Issued at 122 PM EDT Sun Jun 27 2021

IMPACTS:

* Scattered thunderstorms this afternoon into the evening.

* Southwest winds 10-12KT gusting to 21KT through early evening.

DISCUSSION: Broad southwest flow continues across the area, with a
warm and unstable airmass in place. Scattered thunderstorms are
beginning to develop, and will be a threat at all sites through at
least the evening hours. Will carry VCTS with a lack of organization
to convection increasing uncertainty about timing and duration of
impacts at any one site.

Winds will also be gusty out of the southwest around 20+KT through
the evening hours before weakening overnight.

Conditions will be primarily VFR, with brief MVFR conditions
possible in storms.
