A couple of isolated (though loud) thunderstorms rumbled through the region during the overnight hours.  The weather set up today shows a warm front to our south that will result in quite the temperature gradient this afternoon across southern Indiana (highs in the 80s) to central Indiana (upper 60s to around 70).  Most of the day will be dry, but we’ll keep a scattered shower or storm in our forecast through mid to late morning.  That aforementioned stalled frontal boundary will lift north Tuesday night and help result in the warmest air of the season for mid week. We then turn our attention to a very unsettled and potentially rainy pattern setting up late week into the Mother’s Day weekend.  Rainfall numbers range anywhere from 1-2″ at this early juncture for many communities.

Quick Friday Evening Weather Update!

Scattered showers and areas of drizzle will dissipate tonight and cool conditions will remain.  We’ll begin to moderate and introduce more in the way of sun as we go through the weekend.  Have a great evening!

Simulated radar shows widely scattered showers around this evening.

Rinse And Repeat Pattern…

We’re in what we call a “rinse and repeat” pattern.  The region will be under the influence of a broad west to northwesterly flow courtesy of the upper low to our north- over the northwestern Great Lakes region.  This will continue as we put a wrap on the work week.

As a result, we’ll note a much cooler regime (highs today will reach the lower to middle 60s, but highs Thursday and Friday won’t make it out of the 50s). Note today’s highs will be warmest across the east and cooler west as the overall cool air mass moves in.

While everyone won’t get wet, instability-driven showers will be most numerous during the afternoon and evening hours.  These showers will dissipate at night only to reform the following afternoon.

We’ll have a full forecast update posted tonight.  Make it a great Wednesday!
