NWS Indianapolis, IN wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Jul 26, 12:30 AM EST, 1 hour 15 minutes earlier.
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE INDIANAPOLIS IN 130 AM EDT THU JUL 26 2007 .AVIATION...DISCUSSION FOR 06Z TAFS. MAIN UPDATE WITH 06Z FORECAST WILL BE TO KEEP MORE SHOWERS AROUND KIND AND KLAF TAF SITES UNTIL LATE TONIGHT. SHOWERS AND ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS HAVE CONTINUED FROM SOUTHERN LAKE MICHIGAN TO JUST EAST OF KLAF TO KIND AND KCVG. THIS AREA SHOULD LAST SEVERAL MORE HOURS WITH PRECIPITATION OCCURRING AT TIMES AT KLAF AND KIND. MODELS MOVE THIS AREA MORE INTO OHIO TOWARDS SUNRISE. MEANWHILE UPPER LOW OVER EXTREME NORTHWEST OHIO WILL DRIFT INTO LOWER MICHIGAN. A S/W WILL ROTATE ACROSS OUR AREA AND WITH DAYTIME HEATING SHOWERS AND ISOLATED THUNDERSHOWERS SHOULD INCREASE AGAIN BY MIDDAY. WILL MENTION CB IN TAFS AT KIND AND KLAF. THIS S/W WILL MOVE INTO WESTERN OHIO BY THURSDAY EVENING AND PRECIP SHOULD BECOME MORE ISOLATED BY THEN. TAFS WILL REMAIN MOSTLY VFR EXCEPT BRIEFLY MVFR NEAR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. WILL MENTION A PERIOD OF MVFR AROUND SUNRISE ALL AREAS ON THURSDAY. && .DISCUSSION...AT 19Z...TEMPS ACRS THE CWA WERE IN THE LOW TO MID 80S. CLOUD COVER RANGED FROM FEW/SCT NR LWV TO BKN/OVC NR LAF AND MIE. REGNL 88D MOSAICS SHOWED SHRA/TSRA OVR NRN IND/NW OHIO...STARTING TO IMPINGE ON FAR NW AND NRN/NE PORTIONS OF CWA. EVOLUTION OF THESE AND ADDITIONAL PRECIP WL BE ISSUES THROUGH EARLY PORTION OF THE WEEKEND. SHORT TERM THROUGH 2359Z JULY 26...PROBLEM OF DAY IS WHEN WILL IT RAIN. PATTERN HAS BEEN CONSISTENT WITH UPPER LOW SLOWLY RETROGRADING OUT OF OHIO...RELATIVELY LOW DEWPOINTS OVER FORECAST AREA...AND SLY FLOW TRYING TO ESTABISH ITSELF OVER AREA. IMPORTANT ISSUE IS MODELS HAVE BEEN TOO WET...HERE...IN THIS RELATIVELY RARE PATTERN. FOR THE ACTUAL FORECAST FIELDS THE MAIN MODELS ARE ALL VERY CLOSE THROUGH TOMORROW...ALTHOUGH YOU SEE MUCH MORE VARIETY IN THE MOS. I WILL GO WITH THE GUIDANCE THAT HAS BEST CAPTURED THE TRENDS LOCALLY...THE VENERABLE FWC. FOR POPS THAT MEANS I AM NOT GOING TO RULE OUT RAIN...BUT WILL BRING IT IN RELATIVELY GRADUALLY WITH ONLY CHANCE POPS. RELATIVELY MILD FWC TEMPS LOOK GOOD CONSIDERING WE SHOULD GRADUALLY SEE CLOUDS ON ONE HAND BUT SLOW WARM ADVECTION ON OTHER. && TMRW NGT THROUGH FRI NGT...GUIDANCE WAS IN DECENT AGREEMENT AND WAS ABLE TO GO NEAR MAV FOR FRI MAX GIVEN XPCTD CLOUD COVER AND H85 TEMPS. ON MINS...STAYED NEAR MAV DUE TO XPCTD CLOUD COVER AND PRECIP. ON POPS/QPF...GFS APPEARS TO BE SUFFERING FROM SIGNIFICANT FEEDBACK ISSUES IN THIS TIME FRAME...AND SO LEANED TOWARDS NAM ON QPF. AS PREVIOUSLY MENTIONED...MODELS HAVE BEEN STRUGGLING A BIT WITH POPS AND QPF IN ANOMALOUS PATTERN...AND HAVE REDUCED POPS AND QPF ACCORDINGLY...CONCENTRATING HIGHEST POPS /LKLY NRN CWA ON FRI AFTN/ ON BOUNDARY SET TO MOVE THROUGH FRIDAY AFTERNOON INTO LATE FRIDAY NIGHT. .EXTENDED...FOR DAYS 4-7...GFS HINTS AT A SIMILAR PATTERN SETTING UP FOR US NEXT WEEK...WITH AN UPPER LOW CUTTING OFF FROM THE MAIN FLOW AND DRIFTING OVER THE APPALACHIANS AFTER DAY 5. IT WOULD BE REMARKABLE TO SEE TWO CUTOFF LOWS IN SUCH QUICK SUCCESSION...GIVEN THEIR RELATIVE RARITY...AND A SECOND RETROGRADING LOW WOULD BE EVEN MORE REMARKABLE. THAT SAID...THE GFS DID AN EXCELLENT JOB HINTING AT THIS EXACT PATTERN WE ARE UNDER NOW AS EARLY AS LAST WEDNESDAY...WHICH IS SAYING SOMETHING GIVEN TENDENCY OF NWP TO STRUGGLE W/ CLIMATOLOGICALLY ANOMALOUS PATTERNS...SO BELIEVE THAT THE GFS MAY IN FACT BE ON TO SOMETHING HERE. W/ LOW DRIFTING OFF TO OUR EAST...CUT HPC POPS TO 14 OR BELOW AFTER DAY 4. HINTS OF RETROGRESSION IN FURTHER RUNS MAY REQUIRE ADDITIONAL LOOKS...BUT WE HAVE EXPERIENCED LITTLE TO NO PRECIP W/ A SIMILAR PATTERN THUS FAR...SO BELIEVE WE WILL NEED THE LOW TO MOVE CLOSER THAN CURRENTLY DEPICTED IN ORDER TO SEE ANY PRECIP. GIVEN FCST H85 TEMPS...AND WHAT WE HAVE EXPERIENCED FOR THE LAST FEW DAYS...HPC TEMPS LOOKED A BIT WARM...AND HAVE CUT THEM A DEG OR TWO EACH DAY. MADE FEW CHANGES TO MIN TEMPS OTHER THAN TO REDUCE THE DEPICTED GRADIENT SLIGHTLY AND WARM UP IND A DEG OR TWO TO ACCOUNT FOR URBAN HEAT ISLAND EFFECT W/ NORTHEAST WINDS OFF THE CITY EXPECTED EARLY NEXT WEEK. && .IND WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...NONE.
