Tracking Two Cold Fronts…

Screen Shot 2015-08-18 at 10.09.30 PMHighlights:

  • Strong to severe storm potential Wednesday
  • Much cooler to end the week
  • Second cold front delivers storms Sunday and cooler air

Tuesday featured mostly dry conditions across the majority of central IN, but the same likely won’t be said for Wednesday.  A cold front will swing through the region Wednesday night and in advance of the front scattered strong to severe thunderstorms will be possible, especially Wednesday afternoon/ evening.  Damaging wind is the biggest severe threat.  The reasoning behind the turbulent Wednesday weather?  A strong cold front that will sweep through the area and deliver much drier and cooler air to finish the work week.

While the weekend will get off to a quiet open, another cold front will deliver scattered thunderstorms by Sunday afternoon and evening.  Behind the front we can expect much cooler, fall-like air to open the new work week.
