We discuss the regime change from the low humidity, dry, feel to our air mass to one that turns increasingly muggy through the afternoon. This sets the stage for a rainy, stormy week upcoming. We think thunderstorms fire across central Indiana as early as 5-6 o’clock this evening.
Future scan radar suggests thunderstorms erupt as early as 5-6pm across central Indiana.

A beautiful weekend is underway. Stepping out on the deck this morning for my morning coffee was much more refreshing when compared to the past few days. Dew points in the 40s along with temperatures around 60 made for a very nice feel this morning.
This morning’s visible satellite shows clear skies continue. Definitely plan to get outside today, but with that sun screen!
Most of Sunday will be nice, as well, but clouds and humidity levels will increase Sunday afternoon and evening and a couple of showers and thunderstorms will be possible as early as Sunday night.
Future radar shows scattered thunderstorms around the region Sunday night.
Warmth and humidity will return to oppressive levels for the better part of next week and this will help add fuel to the fire for heavy rain and potentially strong thunderstorms. Model data handles the timing differently with next week’s storm system (as is usual at this stage), but agrees on the heavy rain potential. Widespread 1.5″ to 2″ rainfall appears to be a good bet at this point next week.
Upcoming 10 day rainfall potential, per the Canadian forecast model, shows the wet pattern unfolding, including excessive rains for some locales.
The GFS (below) pushes the front south a bit quicker and in return delivers drier air next weekend. The European forecast model doesn’t agree.
Also of interest, the GFS continues to spin up Gulf of Mexico “mischief” late next week…

Drier air continues to take hold and will remain intact as we progress through the majority of the weekend. As the great Sean Ash says, “time to break out the grills!” Humidity values and rain/ storm chances will increase in a dramatic fashion next week. The video uncovers the details!
A much less humid air mass will continue to back itself into the region during the overnight.

After a week of that famous summer “heavy” air mass filled with plenty of warmth and humidity, Hoosiers can breathe a sigh of relief this weekend as a much more refreshing northeast flow provides greatly reduced humidity levels. Also, we’ll enjoy plenty of sunshine for your weekend! All-in-all, we’ve lucked out with yet another beauty of a weekend! Get out and enjoy! As we flip the page into the new work week, showers and thunderstorm chances will increase as humidity levels do a rather abrupt face and return to the sultry levels we grew accustomed to this week. Locally heavy rainfall will be a possibility with such moisture content. A period of widespread, enhanced, rains may fall late next week. In unrelated weather news, we’ll also monitor the possibility of something “curious” down in the Gulf of Mexico towards the mid to late week period and the possibility of early season tropical mischief…
