What 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 5, 3:05 PM EDT, 44 minutes earlier. Its key messages:

Scattered showers and storms through this evening with coverage decreasing overnight
Patchy dense fog possible late tonight
Unsettled and stormy weather continues through the end of the week with additional chances for scattered showers and storms this weekend into early next week
A few strong to severe storms cannot be ruled out across south- central Indiana Friday or Saturday PM
Seasonable temperatures late week through the middle of next week

- Unsettled and stormy weather continues through the end of the week
  with additional chances for scattered showers and storms this
  weekend into early next week

.SHORT TERM (This evening through Friday)...
Issued at 304 PM EDT Thu Jun 5 2025

Latest observations show a front remains draped across central
Indiana roughly from Terre Haute northeastward to Muncie with
scattered showers ongoing along or south of the boundary. Additional
showers and some thunderstorms are expected to develop over the next
few hours as further destabilization occurs south of the boundary.
Northwest portions are expected to remain dry as there is less
available moisture and negligible forcing north of the front. Weak
lapse rates and relatively long skinny CAPE profiles should limit
the potential for severe weather, but there may be just enough DCAPE
for an isolated stronger wind gust through the evening.

Coverage of showers and storms will diminish overnight as
differential heating across the frontal boundary lessens resulting
in weaker forcing. The front should also gradually push south
towards daybreak Friday. Winds will be dropping to near calm late
tonight which combined with damps grounds from recent rainfall could
bring some patchy dense fog to the area. Cloud cover will help to
limit the coverage of the densest fog, but winds becoming very light
favors fog development. Look for dewpoints to gradually fall through
the night as the front shifts south. This will help to slightly
cool overnight temperatures into the low to mid 60s.

Expect Friday to start off mostly quiet due to the frontal boundary
moving south of central Indiana. However, another disturbance will
likely move through late in the day with deeper moisture surging
back north slightly. An MCS is expected to develop west of the
region earlier in the day before propagating eastward. Models are
still struggling to agree on how the system will evolve.

Depending on where the system tracks locally heavy rainfall
should be the primary threat with a low chance for damaging wind
gusts. The best chance for rain is across south-central Indiana
closer to where the system will track. Also while the overall
severe threat appears low, some guidance suggest an MCV developing
from earlier day convection could potentially promote a more
favorable corridor for strong to severe storms. At this time, it
appears this would most likely occur south of central Indiana.

&&

.LONG TERM (Friday night through Thursday)...
Issued at 304 PM EDT Thu Jun 5 2025

An unsettled pattern will continue into the extended period as a
frontal boundary meanders over the region. Periodic showers and
thunderstorms will impact the Ohio Valley through early next week
due to disturbances tracking along the baroclinic zone. The greatest
threat is locally heavy rainfall from repeated rounds of storms, but
there is also a low threat for strong to severe storms Saturday
across mainly south-central Indiana. Enhanced mid-level westerlies
from an approaching shortwave overspreading a modestly unstable
environment could support a few severe storms capable of producing
isolated damaging wind gusts.

Latest guidance still suggest some uncertainty in the overall
evolution of the approaching system Saturday. Deeper Gulf moisture
should be displaced south of central Indiana by early Saturday
before shifting back north into the evening as the upper wave and
associated weak surface low approach. Extended model guidance has
come into better agreement regarding the intensity of the upper
level wave and overall moisture return ahead of it. Latest runs
suggest increasing dynamics and deeper gulf moisture surging north
will likely promote precipitation, but discrepancies still limit
confidence in exact details such as rainfall amounts. Regardless,
expect the flooding threat to remain elevated as deeper moisture
returns north.

Sporadic precip chances persist Sunday through Monday with a deep
broad trough and embedded impulses moving through. A large area of
high pressure will then build into the Ohio Valley with dry and
seasonable conditions beginning Tuesday and continuing for much of
the rest of next week. A few ensemble members are hinting that there
could be just enough lingering low-level moisture to promote a few
showers Tuesday, but this appears unlikely. Expect moderating
temperatures during the middle to end of next week once upper
ridging shifts eastward.

&&

.AVIATION (18Z TAF Issuance)...
Issued at 144 PM EDT Thu Jun 5 2025

Impacts:

-Periodic SHRA through the day with low threat for TSRA, highest at
BMG, little or no precipitation expected at LAF

-MVFR cigs briefly improving to low end VFR at a few sites this
evening before quickly returning to MVFR and then IFR/LIFR overnight

-IFR to LIFR cigs/vsbys late tonight due to fog

Discussion:

A frontal boundary remains draped across central Indiana with
scattered showers ongoing. There may be some occasional TSRA, but
expect coverage to be minimal outside of BMG with SHRA the
predominant precipitation type. Rain coverage is expected to
decrease this evening into tonight. Little to no additional rain is
expected for LAF.

MVFR cigs are expected through the afternoon with shorter stretches
of VFR possible late this afternoon into the evening for a few
sites. Some LIFR conditions are possible late tonight with fog
likely after 06-08Z.

Winds will generally be northerly at all sites but BMG where winds
will remain southerly during the period, but they will be variable
at times due to the close proximity of the front. Winds will likely
drop to near calm during the timeframe of potential fog.
