Those are the words to sum up the mid to long range. While we’ll deal with a brief Easter weekend cool down, the overwhelming signals in the mid to long…

Enjoy The Dry Time…A fast moving weather maker will scoot by to our northeast Tuesday morning. This will deliver rain and snow for our friends to our east. We’ll enjoy being on the southwest side of the track of this system and as a result we can expect lots of sunshine and seasonably warm temperatures. Wednesday will also feature lots of sunshine.
A new storm system will approach Thursday and deliver showers and thunderstorms into the picture. Some of the rain may be heavy at times. Additionally, we think another wave of low pressure will keep a rather steady rain in play Friday, as well. Temperatures will fall through the day Friday. As of now, it appears as if it’ll be a rather damp and raw close to the work week.
An early sprinkle or snow flurry is possible Saturday, but most of the day will be dry. Easter Sunday will dawn dry, but moisture will increase during the latter portion of the day. We’ll introduce showers into the picture Sunday afternoon.
Upcoming 7-Day Precipitation Forecast:
- 7-Day Rainfall Forecast: 1.25″ – 1.50″
- 7-Day Snowfall Forecast: 0.00″

We’re shifting gears into more of a spring like weather pattern over the course of the next 4-6 weeks. Things appear to get rather active and warmer than average, as…

Evening Rain…The day has started unseasonably cold and sunny, but changes are in the offing later this afternoon. Breezy south winds will help temperatures moderate from the very cold morning readings. In fact, if we hang onto the sunshine long enough, south winds will combine with the extra sun to allow temperatures to rise close to 50 degrees. As it is, we anticipate increasing afternoon clouds followed by showers arriving towards mid to late afternoon. These showers may even be accompanied by an embedded rumble of thunder. Rainfall amounts won’t be heavy and most can expect to accumulate between 0.10″ to less than 0.25″.
We’ll enjoy a nice stretch of sunshine and moderating temperatures Monday through Wednesday. A clipper system should stay well north of our region Tuesday, but if your travels take you into northeastern portions of the state or to Ohio, expect a few showers.
The next storm system of note here will arrive Thursday. A cold front will deliver showers and thunderstorms, especially during the afternoon.
Another area of low pressure will deal a chilly rain to Indiana to wrap up the work week, but the good news in that sunshine appears to be the rule as we head into the special Easter weekend.

A big trough has carved itself out over the eastern portions of the country to wrap up the work week. This will provide an unseasonably cold feel today and…

A cold rain will slowly move out of the region as we progress into the afternoon hours. Beforehand, just enough cold air may catch up with the back edge of…

Busy Times Continue…After an initial round of rain and embedded thunder moved through the region overnight and early this morning, most of today will be very quiet. Look for a gusty southwest wind and increasing sunshine as we head into the afternoon hours.
Rain and storm chances will ramp up as we head into the nighttime hours and overnight. A period of heavy rain and noisy thunderstorms will rumble through central Indiana after midnight into the pre dawn hours Thursday. Additional rainfall of 1″ is a good bet tonight/ early Thursday.
MUCH colder air will quickly sweep into the region Thursday and could even allow some of the back end rain to switch to some wet snow before ending across north and northeastern portions of the area. This won’t accumulate.
We’ll wrap the week up on a cold and wintry note. Scattered snow showers and well below normal temperatures can be expected Friday, with dry and cold conditions Saturday.
The next weather maker will blow through Sunday in the form of a warm front. This will spark a few showers Sunday afternoon and evening along with providing a warmer time of things early next week.

Loaded Up…That’s exactly what the weather pattern is over the forecast period above. Before we get into that, how about that snow and sleet Monday?! Snow came down fast and furious Monday afternoon just north of the city and accumulated to the tune of a few inches across a strip of north-central Indiana. Travel was impacted, as well. Ah, spring in Indiana… 🙂
We’ll transition from the wintry times of Monday to thundery downpours later Tuesday and continuing through the mid week period. A couple rounds of rain and thunderstorms can be expected Tuesday. The first of which will arrive late Tuesday morning into the afternoon. This will then be followed by a potentially noisy round of thunderstorms late Tuesday night into the wee morning hours Wednesday. Most of the day Wednesday will feature dry conditions, along with a gusty SW breeze and much warmer conditions. The atmosphere will prime itself for another round of heavy rain and strong to isolated severe thunderstorms Wednesday night into Thursday. A cold front will finally sweep through the region Thursday morning and put an end to the rain and thunder as well as usher in a much colder regime to wrap up the work week.
As mentioned above, cold will be the word as we put a wrap on the week and head into the weekend. In fact, enough moisture and upper level energy may be present to create snow showers Friday. Talk about a harsh reality to Wednesday’s mid 60s. Don’t you love the weather roller coaster this time of year?! Cold remains firmly in place Saturday though with increasing sunshine.
As we look ahead to early next week, a warm front may lift north through the region Sunday afternoon and this could spark a light shower.

An active weather pattern will put the Ohio Valley in for busy times this week. First up is a snow maker that will drop in this afternoon. Snow may even…
