    Mesoscale Discussion 1975
    NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK

    Areas affected...Central IN

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible

    Valid 140630Z - 140830Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent

    SUMMARY...Wind-damage potential will spread east-southeastward with
    an ongoing storm cluster, though longevity of the threat is
    uncertain.

    DISCUSSION...A small southeastward-moving storm cluster has evolved
    across west-central IN, with another isolated strong to potentially
    severe storm ongoing north of Indianapolis. This somewhat elevated
    convection has developed north of an outflow-reinforced front,
    within a low-level warm-advection regime that will continue for much
    of the overnight. MUCAPE of 1000-2000 J/kg and 30-40 kt of effective
    shear will continue to support organized storms.

    The modest upscale growth noted across west-central IN could lead to
    an increase in wind-damage potential over the next 1-2 hours.
    However, the magnitude of the threat is uncertain due to lingering
    near-surface stability, and recent objective mesoanalyses depict
    decreasing MUCAPE and increasing MUCINH with southeastward extent.
    If a robust cold pool can become established, then a more organized
    wind-damage threat could evolve across a larger portion of central
    IN with time. Otherwise, localized strong/damaging gusts will
    continue to be possible, and some potential for isolated hail may
    persist with the remaining semi-discrete cells.
