Most of today will be dry and though we’ll be continued warm and humid, we’ll have just enough breeze to make it feel comfortable out.  Better rain chances will remain down state late morning into the afternoon.  While a scattered shower or storm is possible across central Indiana, most will remain rain-free today we think.  We’re going to have to monitor a couple of complexes of strong to severe thunderstorms late tonight and again Monday night off to our northwest.  Short-term modeling keeps both complexes just to our north, but we’ll keep a close eye on things moving forward.  Rain chances remain through mid week before a big push of cooler, drier air blows into town for the long holiday weekend.  Temperatures will run much cooler than average and provide a taste of early fall during what traditionally is the dog days of summer!

A warm front is lifting north through the region this morning and rain will continue to expand in coverage this morning as the front lifts north.  Sunshine will then quickly build back into central Indiana this afternoon, along with plenty of humidity.  We’ll get back into the scattered afternoon/ evening “splash and dash” thunderstorm regime later today and again Sunday.  Looking further ahead, concern is growing about a potential severe weather event here Monday and we’ll have an additional post later this weekend discussing this potential in more detail.  For now, plan to pay special close attention to Monday’s forecast with damaging severe weather potential in play (all modes of severe weather at hand).  We still forecast a MUCH cooler, drier regime building in mid week and remaining in place through the upcoming holiday weekend.
