Zionsville, IN Rain showers will continue pushing east of the region tonight and we should be rain-free Wednesday. We discuss what’s sure to be a busy, chilly forecast below!
Wednesday: Partly cloudy; 50/ 61
Tuesday’s rain will be all, but a memory Wednesday with sunshine returning to your forecast. A north breeze will be in play, helping usher in cooler temperatures.
Thursday: Scattered showers; 0.10; 44/ 58
Some weak upper level energy will move across the state on Thursday and this could help spark a scattered shower. We’re not looking at all day rains or significant rainfall by any means. Besides the rain, the other big weather story Thursday will be the chilly air. We’ll be far below the middle 60s, which is considered the normal high for this time of year.
We’ll wrap up the work week with very pleasant autumn weather. A secondary cold front and resurgent chilly air will be set to invade for the weekend, but we think the frontal passage holds off until Friday night. As of now, we forecast the front to come through dry.
Saturday: Partly cloudy; 40/ 54
Cool Canadian air will flow into the Hoosier state Saturday amidst chilly northerly breezes. Winds may gust upwards of 20 MPH or so during the daytime Saturday. You’ll certainly need that jacket or sweater as you head out to the fall festivals or the pumpkin patch!
Weather conditions will be very similar to that of Saturday on Sunday. Dry skies and chilly breezes will dominate our landscape. Temperatures will remain below average.
Monday: PM shower chance; 0.10; 39/ 64
Our winds will back around briefly to the southwest and allow just enough moisture northward to potentially lead to a broken band of showers to move through the region Monday evening/ early Tuesday ahead of our next cold front. Most of your daytime Monday will remain dry and rain-free. This front is packing a punch in the temperature department and will likely produce the coldest air so far this fall season by the middle of next week, including the chance of the first official freeze for IND.
Tuesday: Mostly cloudy; 41/ 49
As of now, next Tuesday is shaping up to be a rather cloudy, raw day. Strong cold air advection will be ongoing. Gusty north winds will help usher in the coldest air so far this fall season. In fact, highs likely will remain below 50 degrees next Tuesday with mostly cloudy skies and chilly north winds.
