Very Cold Close To The Work Week…We’ve been cold for so long, it’s hard to remember that our average high this time of year is still around the 50 degree mark.  We won’t come anywhere close to that before Saturday.  Sunshine will dominate both today and Friday before giving way to increasingly cloudy skies late Friday.

Freezing Rain Potential; Wind And Storms Sunday…Light freezing rain is likely late Friday night into the wee morning hours Saturday.  Thankfully before we see widespread icing problems, temperatures should “warm” above freezing with a cloudy, breezy, and showery day on tap.

Heavier rain and embedded thunderstorms will rumble through the region Sunday, along with gusty south winds as a strong storm system lifts into the Great Lakes region.  Locally heavy rain can be expected with this event Sunday.

Colder For Thanksgiving Week; Eyeing Late Week Storm Potential…While we’ll enjoy one day above normal (Sunday) the overall weather pattern is one that’ll continue to result in a colder than normal regime over our part of the country.  A cold Thanksgiving week is shaping up with well below average temperatures.  Some scattered snow showers/ flurries are possible midweek, but it’s as we go into late next week/ weekend when a storm of “more importance” emerges.  Far too early for specifics on rain or snow, but stay tuned…

Upcoming 7-Day Precipitation Forecast:

  • 7-Day Rainfall Forecast: 1.00″ – 1.50″
  • 7-Day Snowfall Forecast: Dusting

Light Snow…Light snow will fall across central Indiana Wednesday, especially from Indianapolis and points north.  We’re not talking about significant accumulations, but a dusting to half an inch will be possible across the region Wednesday morning.  This is part of reinforcing cold and wind that will once again have things feeling frigid come Wednesday evening.  Southwest winds will shift around to the northwest come afternoon helping drive in the arctic air reinforcements.

Cold Close To The Work Week…We’re anticipating a dry close to the work week, but one that’s much colder than average.  In fact, high temperatures both Thursday and Friday will be significantly colder than average lows this time of year.  Brrrrrrr…. Keep the heavy winter gear handy.

Milder, But Wet And Windy…A big Mid West storm system will deliver a rainy and windy time of things Saturday into Monday.  As precipitation moves into the region, a wintry mix of sleet and/ or freezing rain will be possible during the onset early Saturday.  Otherwise, strong and gusty southerly winds will deliver a briefly milder regime come Sunday with periods of heavy rain.  Early indications suggest weekend rainfall totals reach 1″ to 1.5″.

Turning Colder Again…Once our storm system lifts away from the region, colder than normal air will quickly come rushing back into central Indiana to open up the short Thanksgiving week.  More details later in regards to a potential storm system brewing closer to Thanksgiving, itself…

Upcoming 7-Day Precipitation Forecast:

  • 7-Day Snowfall Forecast: Dusting – 0.50″
  • 7-Day Rainfall Forecast: 1.00 – 1.50″

First Plowable Snow Of The Season…It may only be mid November, but we’re already talking about our first plowable snow of the season.  Let’s get right to the bullet point details of what you need to know:

  • Snow arrives into central Indiana around 2 o’clock
  • Snow increases in intensity around sunset into the mid evening hours; periodically reaching moderate to heavy levels
  • Uniform 2-4″ snow event tonight for central Indiana, but localized banding features could result in a 5″ report

Our snowfall forecast first issued Saturday morning remains.  The falling snow should be east of the region before the morning commute gets underway Monday, but the damage will already be done.  Our snow removal companies will be hard at work across the region.  The big story Monday will be fresh arctic air invading through the day along with gusty winds and renewed snow showers developing Monday night.

Periodic Snow Showers; Reinforcing Arctic Air…If you haven’t realized another wintry week was upon us, now you will!  Individual disturbances will move southeast into mid week helping to serve as arctic air reinforcements and snow shower producers.  Another important note- wind chill values will be below zero Tuesday morning.  Plan on severe cold.

Late Week Storm System…The details are “murky,” but a storm system will attack the cold air late week with a wintry mix of rain and snow.  More around this in the days ahead.  For now, the focus remains on tonight’s snow event.

Upcoming  7-Day Precipitation Forecast:

  • 7-Day Snowfall Forecast: 3″ – 5″
  • 7-Day Rainfall Forecast: 0.10″
Our snowfall forecast remains unchanged from Saturday morning, but we'll include mention of isolated 5" reports across central Indiana to account for banding potential.
