Hoosier Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 Well, here's a switch: THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE IN INDIANAPOLIS HAS ISSUED A * FLOOD WARNING FOR... CENTRAL VERMILLION COUNTY IN WEST CENTRAL INDIANA... NORTHERN PARKE COUNTY IN WEST CENTRAL INDIANA... SOUTHERN FOUNTAIN COUNTY IN WEST CENTRAL INDIANA... SOUTHWESTERN MONTGOMERY COUNTY IN WEST CENTRAL INDIANA... * UNTIL 900 AM EDT * AT 347 AM EDT...NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE DOPPLER RADAR INDICATED THAT OVER 4 INCHES OF RAIN HAD FALLEN IN THE PAST FEW HOURS AT SOME LOCATIONS IN THE WARNED AREA. WIDESPREAD 2 TO 3 INCHES OF RAIN HAD FALLEN ELSEWHERE. THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE IN INDIANAPOLIS HAS ISSUED A * FLOOD ADVISORY FOR... NORTHEASTERN HENDRICKS COUNTY IN CENTRAL INDIANA... NORTHERN MARION COUNTY IN CENTRAL INDIANA... SOUTHERN HAMILTON COUNTY IN CENTRAL INDIANA... * UNTIL 800 AM EDT * AT 426 AM EDT...NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE DOPPLER RADAR INDICATED THUNDERSTORMS WITH HEAVY RAINFALL ACROSS PARTS OF THE ADVISORY AREA. ADDITIONAL THUNDERSTORMS ARE MOVING INTO THE ADVISORY AREA. DOPPLER RADAR ESTIMATED OVER 2 INCHES OF RAIN HAVE FALLEN IN PARTS OF THE AREA DURING THE LAST COUPLE OF HOURS. THIS IS IN ADDITION TO THE HEAVY RAIN THAT FELL YESTERDAY EVENING. * RUNOFF FROM THIS EXCESSIVE RAINFALL WILL CAUSE MINOR FLOODING TO OCCUR...ESPECIALLY ALONG SMALL STREAMS AND NEAR LOW WATER CROSSINGS. SOME LOCATIONS THAT WILL EXPERIENCE MINOR FLOODING INCLUDE...BROWNSBURG...CARMEL...FISHERS AND SPEEDWAY. Better than nothing but might be a case of too much too fast?

Hoosier Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 Been missing out on most of the rain here so far. Heavy totals are about a county south. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wisconsinwx Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 Temp has dropped from 69.6 to 66.6 in the last couple hours as the onset of rain has occurred. This is some top notch summer weather, given most of us are tired of the heat and sun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicago Storm Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 Morning AFD from Izzi regarding the LE rain/storm and waterspout potential... THE SHOWERS/EMBEDDED THUNDERSTORMS THAT DEVELOP IN DEFORMATION ZONE THIS AFTERNOON SHOULD GRADUALLY MOVE OUT OF THE AREA TONIGHT. HOWEVER...LAKE EFFECT SHOWERS AND SOME THUNDERSTORMS ARE LIKELY TO CONTINUE OVER NORTHEAST ILLINOIS AND NORTHWEST INDIANA THROUGH THE NIGHT INTO FRIDAY MORNING. AS DISCUSSED THE PAST FEW DAYS...LAKE EFFECT PARAMETERS BECOME EXCEPTIONALLY FAVORABLE FOR PRECIPITATION AND EVEN WATERSPOUTS. RECENT WORK FROM WADE SZILAGYI HAS FOUND THAT CONTRARY TO PREVIOUS BELIEFS...WATERSPOUTS CAN FORM IN WINDY SITUATIONS...SO DESPITE THE PROGGED INCREASE IN WINDS TONIGHT AND ESPECIALLY FRIDAY WATERSPOUT POTENTIAL STILL APPEARS RATHER HIGH. GIVEN THE BRISK ONSHORE FLOW AND COLD AIR ALOFT/INSTABILITY ASSOCIATED WITH THE DEEP 500MB LOW WOULD THINK THE CHANCE OF ONE OF THESE WATERSPOUTS SNEAKING ONSHORE AS A BRIEF TORNADO MIGHT BE A BIT HIGHER THAN USUAL AS WELL...THOUGH PROBABLY STILL A RATHER REMOTE PROBABILITY. GRADUALLY BACKING LOW LEVEL FLOW FRIDAY SHOULD RESULT IN LAKE EFFECT PRECIP TAKING AIM MORE ON NORTHWEST INDIANA WITH TIME WITH DECREASING INSTABILITY DURING THE DAY PROBABLY RESULTING IN A DECREASE IN COVERAGE/INTENSITY OF THE LAKE EFFECT DURING THE AFTERNOON. LAKE EFFECT MAY BECOME REINVIGORATED A BIT NOCTURNALLY FRIDAY NIGHT...THOUGH WITH FLOW BECOMING INCREASINGLY NORTHWESTERLY IT SHOULD TAKE AIM ON AREAS FARTHER EAST AND EVENTUALLY OUT OF OUR CWA MOST LIKELY BY LATE FRIDAY NIGHT. IF SLOWER/FARTHER WEST WRF-NAM SOLUTION VERIFIES THEN THE WATERSPOUT POTENTIAL COULD LINGER INTO FRIDAY NIGHT...BUT WITH ECMWF/GFS BOTH FARTHER EAST AND MORE PROGRESSIVE WITH UPPER LOW HAVE OPTED TO RESTRICT MENTION TO JUST THE MORNING HOURS FRIDAY. OUTSIDE OF THE LAKE EFFECT BELT IT LOOKS LIKELY A BREEZY/WINDY DAY WITH FAIRLY EXTENSIVE STRATOCUMULUS DECK...ESPECIALLY EASTERN CWA CLOSER TO THE UPPER COLD POOL. WORTH MENTIONING THAT WITH NORTHEAST TO NORTH GALES EXPECTED FRIDAY AND STRONG INSTABILITY POTENTIAL EXISTS FOR VERY LARGE WAVES TO BUILD UP (10-14FT CURRENTLY PROJECTED) WHICH COULD RESULT IN SOME MINOR LAKE SHORE FLOODING IN TYPICALLY FLOOD PRONE AREAS. WILL PASS THIS CONCERN ONTO THE DAY SHIFT AND LET THEM RE-EVALUATE THE NEED FOR A POSSIBLE LAKE SHORE FLOOD ADVISORY FRIDAY INTO FRIDAY EVENING.

wisconsinwx Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 A steady moderate rain, temp has dropped to 63 outside. It feels like fall!! Same here, this is the opposite of some of the recent rains, where the radar presentation looks more impressive than reality. We're talking 15-25 dbz returns, but it is a steady moderate rain.
