Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Northern Indiana
328 AM EDT Sun Jun 9 2024

.KEY MESSAGES...

- Cool Monday with highs near 70, much warmer by Thursday with highs
approaching 90.

- Becoming hot and humid late this coming weekend.

- Mainly dry this upcoming week; chances for storms Thursday
  afternoon through Friday.

&&

.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 304 AM EDT Sun Jun 9 2024

Showers have moved east out of the forecast area. Chilly air
behind a weak upper level system and associated cold front will
spread south out of Canada to start the work week. 850 mb
temperatures Monday may drop all of the way down to +3C per GFS.
The latest model guidance favors lows well down into the 40s by
Tuesday morning. Return flow around a large surface high will
begin Tuesday and eventually allow highs to recover well into
the 80s Thursday.

For later this upcoming week, the challenges include timing of a
(weak) cold front and subsequent chances for showers & storms. In
the broader picture, the best window for activity should be open
from early Thursday into Friday. Max CAPE values per GFS range from
1000 J/Kg to 2000 J/Kg. Given modest CAPE, bulk shear and
precipitable water values, these environment factors favor gusty
winds and locally heavy rainfall with unorganized storms. However,
if an upstream convective develops into a MCS and moves into the
area, stronger winds would be favored. Confidence is low for
storms on Friday given the likelihood the front will be south of
the area and best chances for storms will likely be in the
higher theta E in the vicinity of the front. Otherwise, the
upcoming weekend should be dry. GFS and ECMWF 850 mb
temperatures near 20C favor highs near 90 Sunday.

.AVIATION /06Z TAFS THROUGH 06Z MONDAY/...
Issued at 1221 AM EDT Sun Jun 9 2024

Low confidence with cigs through daybreak as ceilings generally
bouncing around between IFR and low VFR across northern IN
immediately behind a cold front. Dry advection in this
environment should eventually allow for all VFR after daybreak
with deeper diurnal mixing supporting wnw gusts up to near 25
knots late morning and afternoon.
