Weekly #AGwx And Severe Weather Outlook…

Updated 04.11.21 @ 6:45a

A cooler trend will develop this week from the Plains into the Ohio Valley. Meanwhile, unseasonable warmth will hang on a couple more days across New England.
Below normal precipitation is expected this week across a widespread chunk of the Lower 48. One major exception to that will be found along the Gulf Coast.
Rainfall totals should fall within 0.25” and 0.50” for immediate central Indiana this week and most of that will come today.
Another round of severe weather is expected across Florida today, unfortunately impacting spring breakers. All in all this will be a quieter week on the severe front as the cooler pattern settles in.

Forecast Period: 04.11.21 through 04.18.21

Central Indiana will continue to feel the affects of the low pressure system that resulted in periods of storms yesterday through the remainder of the weekend. A rather persistent light to moderate rain is expected today along with gusty winds and cooler air. This system will pull east of the region Monday and allow for drier air to return. The bulk of the remainder of the forecast period looks dry and seasonably cool. We’ll continue to keep an eye on upper level energy scooting to our east midweek. This is expected to result in a few instability-driven showers for our friends across northeastern IN into OH, but continues to look like it’ll just miss central IN.

Frosty conditions are still possible Thursday morning, especially if we can clear out any lingering clouds from the aforementioned upper energy. The next opportunity for better coverage of light showers won’t come until next weekend. Overall we only expect 0.25” and 0.50” of rain in the week ahead- most if not all of which falls today.
