AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NORTHERN INDIANA 1210 PM EST TUE JUN 28 2005 .AVIATION... SCT TSTMS CONTINUING ACROSS NRN IN EARLY THIS AFTN. AREA OF WIDESPREAD SHOWERS/TSTMS MOVG NE TOWARD FWA SHOULD REACH THERE MID AFTN. EXPECT STORMS WILL DVLP FARTHER NW WHERE CLRG HAS ALLOWED AMS TO DESTABILIZE AND N-S ORIENTED SFC TROF APPCHG...PUT TEMPO TSRA IN SBN MID AFTN AS WELL. SOME REDEVELOPMENT ALONG THIS TROF NOT OUT OF QUESTION AS IT SAGS INTO NRN INDIANA OVERNIGHT, BUT, CHANCES LOW ENOUGH NOT TO MENTION ATTM. SHOULD BE SOME MVFR VSBYS DUE TO BR/HZ EARLY IN MORNING WITH LIGHT WINDS AND MOIST AMS WITH CU DVLPG AGAIN TOWARD END OF TAF PD. && .PREV DISCUSSION... UPDATED... TSTMS CONTG TO DVLP OVER THE AREA THIS MORNING. LATEST DEVELOPMENT OVER NC INDIANA ALONG WSW-ENE ORIENTED OUTFLOW BOUNDARY. THESE STORMS WILL MOVE SLOWLY NE AND SHOULD PRODUCE HEAVY RAINFALL WITH POTENTIAL FOR LOCALIZED FLOODING. N-S ORIENTED SFC TROF OVER NRN IL IS FCST TO MOVE EAST TOWARD THE AREA THIS AFTN. CLEAR SLOT HAS DVLPD AHEAD OF THIS FEATURE WHICH SHOULD ALLOW AMS TO DESTABILIZE OVER NW PORTION OF CWA THIS AFTN. THUS, WENT WITH LIKELY TSTMS OVER THE ENTIRE AREA. INCREASED CLOUD COVER AND DECREASED TEMPS SLIGHTLY ACROSS THE SE, OTRWS NO OTHER SGFNT CHANGES TO MORNING ZONES. && SHORT TERM... TODAY AND TONIGHT. COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT FORECAST THIS MORNING WITH NUMEROUS WEAK MESOSCALE OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES AND SEVERAL SYNOPTIC SCALE MID LEVEL FEATURES. SATELLITE WATER VAPOR AND IR IMAGES SHOW THE SYNOPTIC SCALE FEATURES NICELY. MAIN VORTICITY CENTER NEAR THE OHIO RIVER WILL MOVE NORTHEAST TODAY AS SHORT WAVE TROUGH APPROACHES FROM THE WEST. CONVERGENCE BETWEEN THESE TWO FEATURES AND WEAK SURFACE BOUNDARIES ARE HELPING TO GENERATE SCATTERED SHRA/TSRA THIS MORNING ACROSS FORECAST AREA. MOST INTENSE TSRA ARE CURRENTLY ENTERING WHITE COUNTY. THESE STORMS ARE MOVING SLOWLY AND RADAR INDICATES HOURLY RAINFALL RATES NEAR AN INCH PER HOUR. WILL HAVE CATEGORICAL POPS THIS MORNING WITH HEAVY RAIN MENTION TO ACCOUNT FOR THIS. AS UPPER TROUGH MOVES ACROSS AREA LATER THIS MORNING AND AFTERNOON...SCATTERED TSRA SHOULD DEVELOP AS MODERATE INSTABILITY AND BOUNDARIES WILL BE IN PLACE. HAVE RAISED EASTERN AREAS TO LIKELY THIS AFTERNOON WITH ADDITIONAL HELP OF VORTICITY CENTER LIFTING NORTHEAST. NOT MUCH FOCUS TONIGHT FOR CONVECTION BUT NAM IS SHOWING A VERY SUBTLE SHORT WAVE MOVING ACROSS REGION. WITH ALL THE BOUNDARIES AND REMAINING INSTABILITY WILL ALLOW THE LOW CHANCE POP TO CONTINUE OVERNIGHT. LONG TERM... WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY NO MAJOR CHANGES MADE TO GRIDS FOR THIS PACKAGE. EXACT EFFECTS OF SEVERAL MCVS/OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES...ETC REMAIN IN QUESTION INTO WEDS EVENING IN HOT...HUMID AND UNSTABLE AIRMASS. OTHER THAN THE MENTIONED BOUNDARIES...LITTLE IN THE WAY TO INITIATE ANY CONVECTION ON WEDS SO WILL CONTINUE WITH DRY FORECAST ALTHOUGH COULD BE ARGUED TO THROW IN ISOL MENTION...BUT ENOUGH UNCERTAINTY TO EVEN LEAVE THAT OUT. BETTER CHANCE STILL LOOKS TO BE WEDS NGT INTO THURS AS BETTER FORCING AND CONVERGENCE MOVES IN WITH DECENT COLD FRONT SET TO MOVE THROUGH ON THURSDAY. MODELS CONTINUE TO HAVE GENERALLY POOR RUN-RUN CONTINUITY WITH SMALLER SCALE FEATURES. THE CONVERGENCE ON THE FRONT COMBINED WITH AT LEAST MODERATE INSTABILITY ESPECIALLY EASTERN HALF OF THE AREA SHOULD BE ABLE TO SPARK OFF THUNDERSTORMS. THINK NAM GOING A BIT OVERBOARD ON DEWPOINTS AND RESULTANT INSTABILITY BUT A NARROW BAND OF MID 70 DEWPTS RIGHT ON THE FRONT CANT BE RULED OUT. SEVERE WEATHER WILL REMAIN A CONCERN FOR WEDS NGT INTO THURS. EXACT EVOLUTION WILL BE TRICKY AS COULD BE MCS TRACKING IN FROM THE WEST AND GIVE SOME SVR WX LATE WEDS NGT THEN REMNANTS REFIRE DURING LATE MORNING IN THE EAST. COULD ALSO END UP COMPLEX MOVES NORTH OF THE AREA AND OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES FROM IT ENHANCE CONVERGENCE ALONG THE FRONT. REGARDLESS...WILL KEEP CHC POPS GOING...HIGHEST DURING FROPA. MODELS DO AGREE THAT ALL SUPPORT FOR STORMS WILL BE EXITING BY EARLY EVENING. BASED ON THIS AND COLLABORATION WITH SURROUNDING SITES...WILL REMOVE POPS FOR THURS NGT NW HALF AND CONFINE MENTION OF PRECIP TO SE AREAS FOR THE EVENING. SUSPECT LATER FORECASTS WILL BE ABLE TO HAVE THURS NGT COMPLETELY DRY. COOLER AND LESS HUMID CONDITIONS WILL RETURN TO THE REGION FOR THE HOLIDAY WEEKEND. ANOTHER SYSTEM WILL TAKE SHAPE AGAIN IN THE PLAINS...BUT EFFECTS OF IT WONT LIKELY BE FELT TILL TUES OR WEDS AT THE EARLIEST. && .IWX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... .IN...NONE. .MI...NONE. .OH...NONE. .LK MI...NONE. && SHORT TERM/AVIATION...JT LONG TERM...FISHER
