The local office's own words before the first event, 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 the first event at Mar 16, 6:13 PM EST, 3 hours 7 minutes earlier.
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE INDIANAPOLIS IN 713 PM EDT FRI MAR 16 2007 .AVIATION...DISCUSSION FOR 0Z TAFS. AREA OF MVFR CIGS TO THE WEST HAS BEEN RAPIDLY SHRINKING AND CLDS ARE SCATTERING OUT FROM SINKING MOTION ASSOC WITH SFC HI TO THE NW. MODEL RH AT LOWER LEVELS INDICATES THE POSSIBILITY OF SOME MOISTURE WRAPPING AROUND THE NOREASTER AS THE UPR TROF AXIS REACHES OH NR 6Z BUT IN NEVER SEEMS TO GET FAR ENUF W TO CAUSE PROBLEMS FOR THE SITES. THERE IS A HINT IN THE GFS THAT SOME LAKE EFFECT CLOUDS MAY IMPACT KLAF NEAR DAYBREAK...BUT THIS DOES NOT SHOW UP IN THE NAM. AVN SREFS ARE INDICATING A HIGH PROBABILITY OF VFR FOR THE ENTIRE PD. BASED ON THIS...WL KEEP VFR THRU THE PD AND GO WITH A SCT LOWER DECK NR 12Z. CU RULE INDICATES SCT CLDS MAY CONTINUE THRU THE DAY...BUT WOULD EXPECT HIGHER BASES LATER IN THE DAY. && .PREV DISCUSSION... FORECAST FOCUS WILL BE ON SKY CONDITIONS NEXT 36 HOURS AND THEN PRECIPITATION CHANCES NEXT WEEK. SURFACE CHARTS INDICATED A 1006 MB LOW OVER SOUTHEAST NORTH CAROLINA AT 18Z. MODELS DEEPEN THIS LOW AND MOVE IT TOWARDS THE NEW ENGLAND COAST DURING THE NEXT 24 HOURS. AS THIS HAPPENS THE UPPER TROUGH DEEPENS OVER THE EASTERN GREAT LAKES AND OHIO. EVENTUALLY THIS DEVELOPS INTO AN CLOSED UPPER LOW OVER NEW ENGLAND AND THEN IT MOVES EAST OFF THE NEW ENGLAND COAST EARLY NEXT WEEK. SATELLITE SHOWS TWO LARGE MASS OF CLOUDS TO OUR EAST AND TO OUR WEST...WHILE MOSTLY CLEAR CONDITIONS WERE THE RULE OVER MOST OF CENTRAL INDIANA EXCEPT FOR THE FAR EAST. WITH STRONG SUBSIDENCE I BELIEVE THE CLOUDS OVER ILLINOIS WILL SCATTER OUT THIS EVENING. HOWEVER MODELS ROTATE SOME LOW AND MID LEVEL MOISTURE BACK INTO EAST CENTRAL INDIANA LATER TONIGHT AND EARLY SATURDAY AS THE SURFACE LOW MOVES UP THE EAST COAST. NAM BRINGS PRECIPITATION AS FAR WEST AS THE INDIANA AND OHIO BORDER. BUT I SEE NO REASON WHY IT WOULD REACH ANY FARTHER WEST THAN THAT. HIGH PRESSURE WILL MOVE SLOWLY EAST ACROSS OUR REGION SATURDAY NIGHT. MODELS STILL BRING ARE A LITTLE SLOWER IN BRINGING THE NEXT S/W TOWARDS INDIANA. WILL KEEP A SLIGHT CHANCE OF LIGHT SHOWERS IN OUR WEST FOR LATE SUNDAY SINCE IT IS ALREADY MENTIONED. BOTH GFS AND NAM BRING A COLD FRONT SOUTH ACROSS OUR REGION MONDAY. THEN GFS STARTS TO MOVE IT NORTH AGAIN BY LATE TUESDAY. MODELS FINALLY MOVE A STRONG UPPER RIDGE EAST ACROSS OUR AREA AROUND MID WEEK WITH EWCF BEING STRONGER AND DRIER THAN THE GFS. A FRONTAL SYSTEM WILL BE APPROACHING OUR AREA LATE NEXT WEEK. GFS MAY BE A LITTLE QUICK IN MOVING PRECIP INTO OUR REGION FROM THIS SYSTEM. HOWEVER ITS INDICATED THIS FOR A COUPLE OF RUNS AND WILL MENTION CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS FOR DAY 7 BECAUSE OF THAT AND ALSO TO BLEND IN BETTER WITH SURROUNDING OFFICES. && .IND WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...NONE. && PUBLIC...JH AVIATION...CP
