Watching Storms To Our Northwest This Morning…Today is a bit of a tricky forecast.  A complex of showers and thunderstorms is tracking through northern Illinois this morning and we’ll monitor this area of showers and storms in the event it begins to shift south of a due east track.  Additionally, outflow boundaries from this complex may trigger additional development of showers and thunderstorms later today.  Best rain/ storm chances should remain across northern Indiana, but we’ll keep an eye on things.  With all of that said, we think most folks here across central Indiana will remain rain-free, including lots of sunshine today.

Cold Front Ushers In A Much Cooler Weekend…A cold front will move through the region early Saturday morning. Ahead of this boundary, a broken line of strong to severe thunderstorms will likely blow through central Indiana Friday night.  We continue to fine tune timing, but thinking at this point highlights 8p to 1a Friday night and Saturday morning (we’ll “tighten” that time line up later tonight).

A few left over showers are possible into Saturday along with a MUCH cooler, fall-like, feel that will continue into next week!

Big Blast Of Cool Air Mid Month…Good model agreement remains on a big blast of cool air blowing in later next week.  Once again, rain and storms will remain in the forecast as the strong cold front blows through.  Behind the boundary, some truly chilly air would arrive… More details to come as we move forward, but it may be a good idea to go ahead and pull those jackets and sweaters out if you haven’t already.

7-Day Precipitation Forecast:

• 7-Day Rainfall Forecast: 0.50″ – 1.00″
• 7-Day Snowfall Forecast: 0.00″

GEFS temperature anomalies over the next two weeks show the 1-2 punch of cool air coming. Time to think about pulling out those jackets!
