White River at Elliston and Edwardsport.
Wabash River at Lafayette, Riverton, and Hutsonville Legacy Power
Plant Site
...The Flood Warning is extended for the following river in
Indiana...
Wabash River at Montezuma.
.Repeated rounds of showers and thunderstorms, including on June 18
and 19, plus dam releases of water upstream from Lafayette, brought
new rises to area waterways. Lowland flooding on the Wabash River
should end by late Saturday...earlier at most locations. Water
levels on the White River at and downstream from Elliston will
either cause lowland flooding or be very near bankfull through as
late as Tuesday.
Hot temperatures with meager chances of rain and plenty of sunshine
well into next week will promote drainage and drying of soil.
PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...
Caution is urged when walking near riverbanks.
Flooding is occurring or is imminent. Most flood related deaths
occur in automobiles. Do not attempt to cross water covered bridges,
dips, or low water crossings. Never try to cross a flowing stream,
even a small one, on foot. To escape rising water find another route
over higher ground.

AGMWhat 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 Indianapolis, IN wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at Jun 19, 11:27 AM CDT, 25 minutes earlier. Its key messages:
- A few lingering showers and storms possible today, areas of fog possible tonight
- Hottest conditions of the season thus far expected this weekend into next week, with significant potential for impactful heat and humidity
Area forecast discussion, Jun 19, 11:27 AM CDT, 25 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Indianapolis IN 1227 PM EDT Thu Jun 19 2025 .KEY MESSAGES... - A few lingering showers and storms possible today, areas of fog possible tonight - Hottest conditions of the season thus far expected this weekend into next week, with significant potential for impactful heat and humidity && .FORECAST UPDATE... Issued at 943 AM EDT Thu Jun 19 2025 A cold front was moving across the southeastern forecast area this morning. A few showers were along the front, but additional showers were behind the front across northeastern portions of the area. Meanwhile, some showers were back across northern Indiana associated with some upper energy. Adjusted PoPs to reflect the above trends. As the upper wave moves east, a few showers will remain possible into early afternoon. Additional upper energy will move in this afternoon and could ignite more scattered convection, mainly northeast. Will keep some PoPs around for this as well. Some breaks in the clouds have developed, especially west. Some of this will fill in with more cumulus, but then these will thin out during the afternoon. The upper wave will keep more clouds north as well. However, the overall trend during the day will be for skies to become partly cloudy across the entire area. Forecast high temperatures look reasonable so made no changes. && .SHORT TERM (Today and tonight)... Issued at 330 AM EDT Thu Jun 19 2025 A much quieter, though not entirely quiet, weather day is anticipated across central Indiana Thursday. With the front still in the region early this morning and a weak secondary upper level impulse still to pass through the area, some lingering showers and perhaps a storm or two can be expected, with chances highest in the east and northeast through the day, gradually tapering off to isolated by this afternoon, as, while upright instability will be present, increasing large scale subsidence as the wave axis passes will help to keep coverage down. Any lingering precipitation should come to an end by 00Z, with dry and mostly clear skies setting up a good radiational cooling situation in the setting of fairly damp soils and dewpoints that, while slightly lower, are not expected to decrease significantly. This should allow for some areas of fog to develop, perhaps dense in spots, particularly in climatologically favored areas. Temperatures today and tonight will be milder, topping out in the mid 70s to mid 80s across the area, and dropping to near dewpoints in the mid 60s tonight, though this reprieve will be relatively short lived. && .LONG TERM (Friday through Wednesday)... Issued at 330 AM EDT Thu Jun 19 2025 ...HOTTEST CONDITIONS OF THE YOUNG SEASON THUS FAR UPCOMING... The primary focus of the long term will be on the upcoming hot and humid conditions this weekend into next week. A strong subtropical ridge of high pressure aloft (595-597 dam at 500 mb) will build over the Ohio Valley/east central CONUS this weekend into next week, though some guidance suggests a slight retrogression of this ridge to the southwest mid week next week, which could put the area in line to experience thunderstorms at times in the hot and humid airmass that remains in place on the periphery of the ridge, particularly as a frontal boundary stalls along the periphery and sparks potential ridge-riding convective complexes. This potential will necessitate at least low to middling chances for thunderstorms at times from Tuesday onward. Strong subsidence aloft and an associated capping inversion should prevent any thunderstorms despite the hot and humid conditions through the weekend into Monday, though an isolated buildup would not be shocking near peak heating - mainly Monday as the subsidence inversion weakens. Temperatures will likely climb into the 90s each day across most if not all of central Indiana from Saturday into Wednesday, with peak afternoon heat index values near or above 100 degrees, perhaps approaching 105 degrees in spots. Heat headlines may well be on the table at some point this coming weekend - but regardless, we are looking at the first prolonged heat spell of the young summer season for central Indiana, with overnight lows in the low to mid 70s providing only minimal relief in the humid airmass, especially for those without access to air conditioning. Experimental NWS HeatRisk values suggest potential for major or extreme (level 3/4 on a scale of 0-4) heat-related impacts for much or all of central Indiana each day from Sunday onward as cumulative heat stress builds, though possible convective activity mid week could act to alleviate this somewhat. Nonetheless, those with outdoor plans for the coming weekend into next week, or without access to adequate cooling and/or vulnerability to heat illness should pay close attention to the forecast and be prepared to take action as necessary. && .AVIATION (18Z TAF Issuance)... Issued at 1225 PM EDT Thu Jun 19 2025 Impacts: - Isolated showers/storms possible this afternoon, but too low probability for a mention - Wind gusts in the 15-20KT range this afternoon from 280-300 degrees - Potential MVFR to IFR VIS at KBMG tomorrow morning Discussion: During the afternoon hours, west/northwesterly wind gusts can be expected at times in the 15-20KT range. These gusts will subside in the late afternoon/evening in typical diurnal fashion. A threat for isolated showers, perhaps a storm or two will be possible today, but probabilities are too low for an explicit mention in the TAF. Best chances will be at KLAF Light winds and mostly clear skies are expected tonight across the area. This may allow for some patchy fog formation given good radiational cooling conditions. This has been included at KBMG where confidence is greatest. && .IND WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... None. && UPDATE...50 SHORT TERM...Nield LONG TERM...Nield AVIATION...Updike
