Friday Forecast: Feeling Like Summer In October

Updated 10.04.13 @ 7:45a

Zionsville, IN Thursday started off with cloudy skies and scattered showers, but rainfall amounts were extremely light for the most part across central Indiana.

Status-weather-clouds-iconFriday: Partly cloudy; 64/ 84

While we cannot rule out an isolated shower or thunderstorm Friday, we think the majority of central Indiana wraps up the work week rain-free. Get outside and enjoy temperatures at summer-like levels. We think we top the middle 80s with continued unseasonably muggy conditions prevailing.

Status-weather-showers-day-iconSaturday: Increasing clouds; late showers and t-storms; 0.40″ 66/ 80

Most of your Saturday looks rain-free and continued unseasonably warm. We’ll note a gusty southwesterly breeze from time to time. As a cold front approaches, skies will begin to cloud up and scattered showers and thunderstorms will develop. Rain chances will be with us in a widely scattered form from late morning on, but the better chances of getting wet appear to arrive Saturday night. We also note the Storm Prediction Center has placed the region in a Slight Risk of severe weather, with damaging winds the primary threat Saturday night. Stay tuned!

Status-weather-showers-day-iconSunday: Cloudy with showers and t-storms- late day clearing; 0.60″ 50/ 66

Showers and thunderstorms will be likely on your way to church Sunday morning, continuing into the afternoon before clearing takes place late. Winds will shift to the northwest and help usher in a MUCH cooler air mass Sunday afternoon. Temperatures will fall through the afternoon Sunday.

Status-weather-clear-iconMonday: Mostly sunny; 43/ 60

“FINALLY.” At least that will be the word IndyWx.com uses to describe Monday’s weather as some true autumn air builds into the region. Monday is shaping up to be a beauty of a day with bright sunshine and crisp, cool temperatures.

Status-weather-clear-iconTuesday: Mostly sunny; 44/ 68

Tuesday is looking to be a carbon copy of Monday thanks to high pressure remaining in control of our weather.  Classic early October weather conditions will prevail early next week.

 

Status-weather-clouds-iconWednesday & Thursday: Partly cloudy; mid to upper 40s/ lower to middle 70s

Dry conditions will continue as we progress through the middle of next week with moderating temperatures. Highs will return to above normal levels by Wednesday.

Friday Forecast: Warm Close To The Week!

Updated 09.26.13 @ 11:36p

Zionsville, IN Our pleasant early fall weather will continue as we put a wrap on the work week.  We’ll note increasingly cloudy skies late Saturday and this is a sign of changes to come for the second half of the weekend.

Capture

 

Beautiful Close To The Week:  After a few days in a row of “severe clear” it’s only fitting that we finish the week with a clear sky. High pressure will remain in firm control of our weather and temperatures will run a solid 6-8 degrees above normal, as we top out Friday afternoon around the 80 degree mark.

Approaching Storm System: While an approaching storm system will dampen our weekend plans Sunday (hey, not a bad day to be indoors watching the Colts game), Saturday will start sunny before clouds increase during the afternoon and evening hours. Temperatures will remain much warmer than average. As we look more closely at Sunday’s forecast, we note forecast models struggling over the past couple of days. In fact, today the European model tried to stall the front near the region, continuing a light rain threat into early next week. We think this is unlikely, but we’ll keep a close eye on model data over the next couple days.  Regardless, showers will arrive Sunday morning with a potential clap of thunder. Today’s model data has been a little more “generous” on rainfall amounts with perhaps as much as one half inch (on average) falling across a landscape needing rainfall badly.

Briefly Cooler: As the front moves east of the region a cooler air mass will be allowed to take control. We’re not talking about any sort of unseasonable chill this go around, but temperatures will feel very much like where we should be for late September Monday.

Moderating Again: A big upper ridge will build into the Ohio Valley and Mid West by the middle and latter portion of next week and this will lead to a continuation of a dry and unseasonably warm pattern next week.
