Hail in Michigan, July 17, 2015

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NORTHERN INDIANA
651 PM EDT FRI JUL 17 2015

.SYNOPSIS...
ISSUED AT 143 PM EDT FRI JUL 17 2015

HEAT AND HUMIDITY WILL CONTINUE TO TAKE HOLD ACROSS THE REGION
THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT. HIGH TEMPERATURES WILL RANGE FROM THE
MID 80S TO AROUND 90. HEAT INDEX VALUES WILL BE BETWEEN 90 AND 100
THIS AFTERNOON. LOWS TONIGHT WILL ONLY DROP INTO THE LOWER 70S.
THERE IS A CHANCE FOR THUNDERSTORMS THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING. A
FEW STRONG OR ISOLATED SEVERE STORMS ARE POSSIBLE.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(THIS EVENING THROUGH SATURDAY)
ISSUED AT 343 PM EDT FRI JUL 17 2015

AS OF 19Z...ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS DEVELOPING SOUTH OF THE AREA
ALONG OUTFLOW BOUNDARY JUST NORTH OF THE I-70 CORRIDOR.
ANTICIPATING DEVELOPMENT FURTHER NORTH INTO OUR AREA OVER THE NEXT
FEW HOURS...ESPECIALLY ALONG MODIFIED OUTFLOW/LAKE BREEZE BOUNDARY
CURRENTLY NOTED ON VIS SAT AS A LINE OF TOWERING CU AND RADAR W/
WEAK RETURNS FROM NEAR MICHIGAN CITY NW TOWARD KAZO. ALL HI RES
GUIDANCE POINTS TO CONVECTIVE INITIATION SOMEWHERE IN THE VICINITY
OF THIS BOUNDARY BY 21Z...DESPITE VERY LIMITED SFC FORCING.

HIGHLY UNSTABLE ENVIRONMENT CONTINUING TO BUILD AS TEMPERATURES RISE
INTO THE UPPER 80S/NEAR 90 THIS AFTERNOON...AND DEWPOINTS IN THE MID
TO UPPER 70S. THIS IS YIELDING SBCAPE VALUES FROM 4000 TO 5000 J/KG
ACROSS NORTHERN IN INTO SRN LWR MI. VERY STEEP LAPSE RATES FROM SFC
TO 700 MB FROM 8 TO 9 C/KM. MID/UPPER JET FOCUSING BEST SUPPORT
ACROSS THE NORTHERN HALF OF THE FORECAST AREA...BUT MEAGER AT BEST
WITH EFFECTIVE BULK SHEAR VALUES OF 20-30 KTS. THESE PARAMETERS
SUGGEST A MAINLY PULSE STORM ENVIRONMENT...HOWEVER SOME STORMS MAY
ORGANIZE INTO MULTICELL CLUSTERS. DAMAGING WINDS LOOKS TO BE THE
MAIN THREAT...ESPECIALLY WITH THE STEEP LOW LEVEL LAPSE RATES AND
DRY AIR ABOVE 700 MB...WITH DCAPE VALUES FROM 1200 TO 1600 J/KG. A
VERY FAVORABLE THERMODYNAMIC ENVIRONMENT...BUT VERY WEAK FORCING AND
LIMITED SHEAR QUELLING A MORE WIDESPREAD SEVERE WEATHER THREAT.
HEAVY RAINFALL WILL ALSO BE A THREAT WITH ANY THUNDERSTORMS...GIVEN
RICH LOW LVL ENVIRONMENT...PWAT VALUES APPROACHING 2 INCHES...AND
WARM CLOUD DEPTHS ABOVE 12KFT. ANY TRAINING T-STORMS...ESPECIALLY
OVER AREAS THAT HAVE RECENTLY EXPERIENCED EXCESSIVE RAINFALL...WILL
SIGNIFICANTLY ENHANCE THE THREAT OF FLASH FLOODING. T-STORM
THREAT/COVERAGE WILL WANE AFTER SUNSET W/ LOSS OF DIURNAL
HEATING...AND HAVE REFLECTED THIS IN THE GRIDS WITH LOWERING OF POPS
THROUGH 06Z. WARM AND MUGGY CONDITIONS WILL CONTINUE THROUGH THE
OVERNIGHT...WITH LOWS ONLY DROPPING INTO THE LOWER 70S.

SECONDARY STORY IN THE SHORT TERM IS DANGEROUS HEAT INDICES EXPECTED
ON SATURDAY. HAVE HOISTED A HEAT ADVISORY FOR THE ENTIRE AREA FROM
NOON UNTIL 9 PM EDT SATURDAY...WITH HEAT INDICES EXPECTED TO RANGE
FROM 100F TO 105F ACROSS THE ENTIRE AREA. MAX T VALUES SHOULD REACH
THE LOW TO MID 90S. HAVE MAINTAINED A SLIGHT CHANCE OF A
THUNDERSTORM SATURDAY AFTERNOON...WITH ANOTHER DAY OF VERY UNSTABLE
CONDITIONS. HOWEVER...EVEN LESS FORCING AND MORE CAPPING SHOULD
PRECLUDE ANYTHING MORE THAN AN ISOLATED POP UP STORM DURING THE PEAK
OF DAYTIME HEATING ON SATURDAY.

&&

.LONG TERM...(SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY)
ISSUED AT 343 PM EDT FRI JUL 17 2015

UPR RIDGE EXPECTED TO EXTEND NE FROM SRN PLAINS TO OUR
CWA AT START OF THE PERIOD SATURDAY EVE. MODELS IN FAIR AGREEMENT
SUGGESTING A WK SHRTWV WILL BE MOVG THROUGH THE PERIPHERY OF THIS
RIDGE ACROSS OUR AREA OVERNIGHT WHICH COULD CAUSE TSTMS GIVEN
MOIST/UNSTABLE AIRMASS IN PLACE. HIGHEST POPS PLACED IN NW ZONES DUE
TO POTENTIAL FOR STORMS ALONG/AHEAD OF CDFNT TO MOVE INTO THIS AREA
OVERNIGHT. TEMPS WILL REMAIN VERY WARM WITH LOWS ONLY IN THE M70S.

CDFNT EXPECTED TO MOVE ACROSS THE CWA SUNDAY... LIKELY ACCOMPANIED
BY TSTMS. GIVEN VERY MOIST/UNSTABLE AIRMASS IN PLACE AHEAD OF THE
FRONT ALONG WITH RATHER STRONG LINEAR FORCING... POTENTIAL EXISTS
FOR SOME SVR STORMS... THOUGH LIMITING FACTOR IS EXPECTED RATHER WK
WIND FIELD/SHEAR AHEAD OF THE FRONT. LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL A
POSSIBILITY GIVE PWATS IN EXCESS OF 2". HIGHS WILL RANGE FROM AROUND
80 NEAR LAKE MI WHERE FROPA WILL COME IN THE MORNING TO NEAR 90 FAR
SE-E PORTION OF CWA WHERE AFTN FROPA EXPECTED.

POST-FRONTAL SHOWERS/TSTMS SHOULD END FROM NW-SE ACROSS THE AREA
SUNDAY NIGHT AS HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN WHICH SHOULD ALSO SET THE
STAGE FOR FAIR WX MONDAY. TEMPS EXPECTED TO FALL BACK TO A BIT BLO
NORMAL WITH LOWS IN THE 60S AND HIGHS IN THE U70S/L80S.

SHRTWV EXPECTED TO MOVE ACROSS THE UPR GRTLKS TUE WITH ASSOCIATED WK
CDFNT PASSING THROUGH OUR AREA IN THE AFTN... PSBLY ACCOMPANIED BY
A FEW SHOWERS/TSTMS. HIGH PRESSURE SHOULD FOLLOW THIS FRONT
PROVIDING FAIR WX WITH NEAR NORMAL TEMPS WED. AS HIGH MOVES TO THE
EAST THU A WARM FRONT APCHG FROM THE SW EXPECTED TO COMBINE WITH A
SHRTWV DROPPING SE ACROSS THE GRTLKS BRINGING ANOTHER CHC OF
TSTMS... WITH RIDGING BUILDING INTO THE AREA IN ITS WAKE PROVIDING
FAIR WX FRI.

&&

.AVIATION...(FOR THE 00Z TAFS THROUGH 00Z SATURDAY EVENING)
ISSUED AT 648 PM EDT FRI JUL 17 2015

SCT TS OVER NRN INDIANA LATE THIS AFTN SHOULD IMPACT FWA EARLY
THIS EVE. OTRWS VFR CONDITIONS EXPECTED OVERNIGHT BUT SOME
STRATUS/FOG PSBL LATE TONIGHT/EARLY SAT. BASED ON UPSTREAM OBS
THIS MORNING EXPECTING JUST A SHORT PERIOD OF MVFR BR RESTRICTIONS
AT MOST. RIDGE ALOFT BUILDING INTO THE AREA ON SATURDAY SHOULD
CAP DEEP CONVECTION FOR THE MOST PART ACROSS THE AREA WITH JUST
SCT CLOUDS EXPECTED AND PERHAPS AN ISOLATED LATE AFTN TS (COVERAGE/CHANCES
TOO LOW TO MENTION IN TAFS).
