.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 401 AM EST Tue Nov 25 2025

A pair of upper level systems and a cold front will bring very
active weather across the forecast area through Friday. A fairly
strong short wave was moving across the Mid Mississippi Valley.
A large area of mainly light rain was associated with this
system. The rain will spread across northern Indiana today.
Temperatures will stay much above freezing so snow is not
expected. However, a second system will reach the area Wednesday
and bring another round of precipitation. The rain will change
to snow early in the day as much colder air spreads over the
region. Light snow accumulations are likely especially north of
the toll road.

A cold weekend is ahead with highs only in the 30s with highs
Thanksgiving Day through Saturday only in the lower 30s. Some
light snow is possible as a weak short wave reaches the area.
There are more chances for accumulating snow early next week,
but for this package have not made any changes in this regard
early next week due to uncertainty.

.AVIATION /12Z TAFS THROUGH 12Z WEDNESDAY/...
Issued at 538 AM EST Tue Nov 25 2025

Disturbance will continue to move through the area today and will
bring mostly MVFR and IFR conditions in lower cigs and vsbys
with light rain and mist. However, LIFR cigs between 15z and
19z Tue for KSBN and LIFR cigs for KFWA between 15z and 23z Tue
will be expected. There will continue to be a bit of up and
down with the vsbys/cigs due to the nature of the rain showers
and mixing of drier air with a dry slot moving into area this
afternoon. Southwesterly winds will be on the increase after
09z-10z Wed with gusts around 20-25 kts through the remainder of
this TAF period further wind increases are expected beyond this
period.
