Highlights:

  • Saturday Showers
  • Arctic Air Pours In To Close 2014
  • Bigger Storm Late Next Week

Showers Around…The first round of light rain moved through central Indiana during the early morning hours and has now pushed into extreme eastern portions of the state and into Ohio.  While low clouds and areas of fog will remain, we should be dry through a large portion of the late morning into the early afternoon. Showers will then redevelop later this afternoon and tonight as a cold front draws closer.  We’re not looking at any sort of heavy rain and temperatures will be mild for this time of year.

Colder Air Pushes In To Close 2014…A cold front will move through the area early Sunday.  Cold air may help change light rain to a light wintry mix/ snow flurries before coming to an end Sunday morning.  The bigger story will be a much colder air mass that will push south and lead to a cold close to 2014 (fitting, considering the year as a whole has been colder than normal).  Unfortunately for snow lovers out there we won’t have any moisture around to lead to snowy times.

Storm System Brews Late Next Week…A significant storm system is on the charts by Friday, but we want to be very clear when we say that the range of model solutions varies from a warmer and mostly wet event to one that’s much colder and primarily a winter storm.  Which solution is correct?  That’s virtually impossible to say at this point.  One could actually argue for and against the wide range of possibilities with some of the pattern developments and teleconnections as of late.  Stay tuned.
