Quiet Open To The Week Gives Way To More Active Times…

Updated 03.18.24 @ 7:55a

The story to open the work week will be a quiet one. For a change, we’re talking about a chilly air mass settling overhead. That colder air will also feature a return of drier times.

Despite a few scattered light snow showers today, we’ll stay on the dry side until Friday.

Multiple hard freezes can be expected this week. Tuesday morning will once again feature lows deep into the 20s area-wide.

The good news? Sunshine and calm conditions can be expected during the majority of the week ahead.

That will all change by Friday as a couple low pressure systems team up to return unsettled weather to our region. Friday looks wet and chilly as of now. Rain won’t be heavy, but more of a nuisance. It’ll be a good day to hunker down and watch Day 2 of the tourney. 🏀

Though Friday won’t feature a significant storm system, it will signal a change for a more active Week 2. Heavier rain and the possibility of stronger storms can be expected next week and we’ll have more details on this as we navigate the coming days.

On Cruise Control, But There Are A Few Bumps On The Road…

Updated 02.20.24 @ 5:30a

Today and Wednesday (at least during the daytime) are about as quiet and pleasant as it can get for late-February. After another cold start, we’ll quickly warm into the 50s later this afternoon. We’ll do even better than that come Wednesday as highs flirt with the 60° mark. Patio, anyone?!

Moisture won’t make a return until overnight Wednesday into Thursday morning. We note modeling is honing in on central and southern Indiana for the potential of heaviest rain during the period (most of which falls Thursday morning into the afternoon) and we may also see a couple of thunderstorms thrown into the mix, especially downstate. A solid 0.50″ to 1″ appears most reasonable for area rain gauges.

Wet conditions will return to the area Thursday.

Behind this feature, a brief drop in temperatures can be expected for the weekend, but we won’t really even be able to call this air mass “cold” by late February standards. Nonetheless, trailing upper level energy and just enough cooler air will be enough to ignite a few snow showers Saturday.

Upper level energy will combine with cooler temperatures to provide an opportunity for snow showers Saturday.

We want to reiterate that this upcoming weekend’s snow potential is nothing compared to last weekend and we’ll be right back into the 50s and 60s by Sunday!

That brings us to early next week. While still a bit too far out to get specific, the potential of a more potent storm system is there and we’ll have to keep close tabs on the threat of a more widespread rain and embedded strong storm threat as we get closer. More on this feature in the days ahead.
