Category: 7-Day Outlook
Highlights:
- Lots of sunshine
- Rain chances begin to increase late Friday
- Front sweeps the area Saturday with cooler air
We couldn’t have asked for a more glorious beginning to the work week, weather-wise. We hope you had an opportunity to spend some of your Monday outdoors! Thankfully, beautiful weather will prevail into the latter portion of the work week before clouds increase along with shower chances late Friday. This is in association with our next cold front that will move through here Saturday. We’re not looking at signifiant rain with this frontal passage, but another push of cool air will follow Saturday evening into early next week.

Highlights:
- Chilly start
- Sunshine galore
- Moderating temperatures
October-like weather will remain in place today, complete with wall-to-wall sunshine. We suggest finding a way to get outside to watch the Colts kick off the season! Dry conditions will remain with us for the balance of the work week before we introduce shower and thunderstorm chances into the forecast heading into next weekend. Timing differences are there in regards to the arrival of our next cold front, but for now we’ll mention scattered showers and thunderstorms Friday and Saturday.

Highlights:
- Dry day before showers arrive tonight
- MUCH cooler weekend with showers around
- Dry and pleasant early-mid next week
The first of two cold fronts pushed through the region last night and helped usher in late day clearing that set up a beautiful sunset across central IN. The heat of September’s open is long gone and in it’s wake we can expect gorgeous weather today, with some sunshine before clouds increase later today.
A secondary cold front will sweep in to close the work week and this front will be responsible for delivering gusty showers Friday, followed by an airmass that’s more October-like than September over the weekend. It’ll be a perfect weekend for football, chili, bonfires, and all things pumpkin! 🙂
Dry conditions return next week with moderating temperatures.

@Cryptics caught an amazing sunset last night, after what was a rather rainy, gloomy day.

Highlights:
- Shower and storm chances
- One-two punch of cooler air
- Very fall-like weekend
A cold front is draped across the Plains this evening helping to ignite thunderstorms. This front will slowly continue to push east and be responsible for increased chances of showers and thunderstorms across our neck of the woods late Tuesday into Wednesday. We think a rather large area of showers and thunderstorms will diminish in intensity and coverage as it pushes across the state Tuesday night. For an area that’s grown dry as of late, that’s not the news we want to hear. There will be another opportunity for showers and thunderstorms to develop ahead of the frontal boundary that passes late Wednesday.
Drier and cooler weather will build in to close the work week, but a secondary push of cool, autumn-like air will arrive in time for the weekend. Add in some upper level energy and we’ll need to mention a passing shower Saturday and Sunday. It’ll feel drastically different this weekend that what we experienced last weekend. Pumpkin spice latte, anyone? 🙂

Highlights:
- Western storms
- Hot Labor Day
- MUCH cooler late next week
Thunderstorms will slowly push south this morning, especially across western portions of the state. Many will be asking “what storms?” while others are getting pounded by heavy rain, vivid lightning, small hail, and strong winds. Best chances of getting a storm will be along and west of I-65.
Drier conditions will build in for the second half of the weekend and into early next week. Labor Day will be a very hot and humid one.
Rain and storm chances will increase as we push into the mid week stretch as a strong cold front moves into the Mid West. MUCH cooler air will infiltrate the state late next week and things will be feeling very “fallish” by the weekend.
Upcoming 7-Day Rainfall Forecast: 0.50″-1″ (locally heavier totals)
