Milder Air, But Rain Chances Increase…Many will welcome a milder southwesterly air flow this weekend.  While this will serve to help give temperatures a significant boost from what we’ve dealt with practically the whole month of November, it’ll also provide increasingly cloudy skies and the chance of sprinkles/ light rain showers by afternoon and evening.

Sunday will be even milder as highs reach towards the 60 degree mark.  A cold front will approach the area Sunday afternoon and evening and provide a better chance of showers and colder air to open the new work week.

Have The Dramamine Handy…We’re in the beginning stages of a pattern change that’ll promote at least “attempts” of milder air in the coming 7-10 days.  That said, cold highs will remain across the northern tier and present challenges in both the temperature forecast, but also precipitation timing in the back half of this forecast period.  In the longer term we want to be very clear that signals suggest mid and late December feature a cold and wintry pattern returning.

As we move into the mid and late week stretch plan for possible changes.  There are challenges that abound, but for now our best meteorological take will feature increasing clouds Wednesday with light showers arriving by evening.  This would be followed by steadier rains Thursday before drier and colder air returns to wrap up the work week.  Stay tuned; it’s a tough pattern, as is usually the case during the transitional seasons.

News And Notes: Bill will be on WIBC with Ray Steele this morning around 7:30.  Be sure and tune in to hear a little weather chit-chat and a lot of talk about tonight’s Iron Bowl… War Eagle!

Upcoming 7-Day Precipitation Forecast:

  • 7-Day Rainfall Forecast: 0.50″ – 1″

Happy Thanksgiving…We want to wish each and every one of you a happy and healthy Thanksgiving!  Enjoy the day with family and friends.  We’re incredibly thankful and blessed for your support and to be able to provide you with the latest weather forecasts and discussions throughout central Indiana.  While the morning could offer a few flurries or scattered snow showers, most of the day will be dry and cold.  Average highs are in the upper 40s this time of year.  We’ll fall far below that this Thanksgiving.

Moderating Into The Weekend…Black Friday will continue the cold theme along with a few snow flurries as a weak weather system scoots through the region.  Shoppers will certainly want to bundle up as they tackle those Christmas lists.  That said, the theme of the Thanksgiving weekend will be one that features moderating temperatures.  The milder southwesterly air flow will also serve to provide increasingly cloudy conditions along with pesky light rain late Saturday into Sunday.

Challenging Forecast…A challenging forecast is ahead early next week as cold highs to the north combine with resurgent milder air across the south.  The battle ground lies across the Mid West and Ohio Valley region and we’ll have to remain on our toes for potential changes.  For now we’re going with a colder feel Monday (falling temperatures after a high in the wee morning hours), cold and dry Tuesday, and milder/ wet Wednesday.  Stay tuned.

News and Notes: We’re very excited to let you know that Bill will be joining Ray Steele on Weekend Indiana Saturday morning to talk a little weather and a lot about the Iron Bowl!  Be sure to tune into WIBC 6a-8a Saturday.

Changeable Monday; Note On Thanksgiving; Warm Open To December…

We wanted to touch on a few items of business this evening.  There’s a lot of weather going on this week…

Monday will feature drastic changes in the weather department across central Indiana:

  • Day starts mild and with lingering showers.
  • Strong and gusty winds will reach speeds of 45-50 MPH.  Batten down the hatches!
  • Temperatures crash late morning into the afternoon.  We start in the lower 50s, but fall to the freezing mark for the drive home across western parts of the state.  Eastern Indiana will see 32 degree air by 7-8 o’clock.
  • Scattered snow showers and flurries will fly across central Indiana Monday evening.

Thanksgiving Cold And Snow:

Temperatures will be much colder than average (low to mid 30s for highs and middle 20s for lows).  We’re still tracking a weak disturbance that could distribute light snow across central Indiana Thanksgiving Day.  Accumulations, if any, would fall in the dusting to less than 1″ range.

Opening December Warm:

We’ve been talking about how this exceptionally cold and wintry early season pattern would have to “relax” at some point and that appears to be the case as we open December.  The potential is there for well above normal warmth for the first week to ten days of December before we reload the pattern and introduce colder, more wintry times for mid and late month (anyone dreaming of a White Christmas)?
