805 FXUS63 KIWX 190745 AFDIWX Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Northern Indiana 345 AM EDT Fri Jul 19 2024 .KEY MESSAGES... -Dry conditions are expected through early Monday afternoon. High temperatures will be in the 70s and low to mid 80s through the week. Lows will be in the 50s and 60s. -A return to more active weather begins Monday afternoon and continues into Friday. The best chances for showers and thunderstorms will be Tuesday into Thursday. && .DISCUSSION... Issued at 344 AM EDT Fri Jul 19 2024 Quiet forecast for the weekend with high pressure at the surface and a gradually deepening upper level trough aloft. High temperatures will range from around 74 to 84, warmest east of I 69 on Sunday. Lows will be in the 50s and 60s. Chances for showers and thunderstorms are possible again many days next week as the upper level trough sharpens and shifts more directly into the Great Lakes region-eventually deepening into an upper level low that sits over northern Lower MI/Upper MI by Wed Eve before lifting northeast Friday night. Pinning down exactly where/when is difficult at this point, so kept generic/broad consensus pops of 20-50 percent for the most part. Wednesday will be the best chance, with 60 percent chance for the afternoon hours. Monday afternoon/overnight will be around 20 percent chance, with weak warm air/moisture advection associated with a surface low to the south lifting into portions of our area (best chances south of US 30). Highs throughout the week will range from 79 to 86 degrees, with an increase in humidity (warmest Monday). Lows will be in the 60s. && .AVIATION /06Z TAFS THROUGH 06Z SATURDAY/... Issued at 1153 PM EDT Thu Jul 18 2024 A large surface high will remain over the region with clear skies and light winds.
