Area forecast discussion 
National Weather Service Indianapolis in 
705 PM EDT Friday Aug 29 2008 


Aviation...discussion for 0z tafs. 
Cold fnt has passed through the sites. While the drier air lags behind 
the wind shift...it is still mving S and dewpoints have fallen at klaf 
quite a bit already. While the dry air advection will slow a little 
after sunset with the winds slowing down...still expect it to 
continue to advance as winds will not go calm. With this in mind will 
keep all sites VFR but kbmg. Not sure that dry air will advance far S 
enough fast enough to keep them up. Will include MVFR fog there. High 
pressure will start to build in overnight but will not be ovrhead until 
tomorrow when it will keep skies pretty clear.

Previous discussion... 
no major problems with the short term forecast. Cold front that 
produced the rain last night was along the Ohio River. This will 
continue to move south. This will allow high pressure to build into 
area. Guidance low temperatures very little tonight so will go with them. This 
trend continues through the weekend. There may be some cumulus development 
during the afternoon but this should not effect temperatures much. 


The main problem occurs in the long term. The exact path that Gustav 
takes once it moves inland will effect if Indiana receives any precipitation. 
The trend over the past several runs has been to hold the precipitation to 
the west of Indiana. Since this trend has been fairly consistant 
will continue with a dry extended. There will only be slight 
temperature changes from day to day. These will also be effected by 
possible cloud cover from Gustav.
