As we alluded to in the post earlier this morning, the weather pattern is beginning to get more active. As “seasoned” Hoosiers know, this is only the beginning of a rather “vamped up” weather period through the next 7-8 months around these parts. Yes, the lazy, hazy days of summer in the weather office are over. Speaking of the weather office, I’m continuing to get settled into the new “home base” office. As I get settled, more and more products will begin to hit the site to help keep central Indiana Hoosiers abreast of what lies ahead in the weather department.
As we look at the upcoming week, we’ll note the trough and dominant northwesterly flow of the weekend begins to “relax” by mid week and weak ridging takes it’s place. This will lead to a warmer and more muggy (though nothing close to as oppressive as last week) feel to the air by mid week. We also note another dip in the jet by next weekend. While details still have to be ironed out, there’s a good shot of rain due in here by week’s end along with another cool down by next weekend. I also want to point out the re-curving typhoon out in the western Pacific. This is in association with upper level ridge placement in the Pacific Ocean and we can actually use this tool to help us forecast weather here on the “home front” in the 6-10 day period. That would bring us roughly to 09.25.13 (give or take a couple of days) and would line up nicely with the cool end of the month we’ve been talking about for some time. Recall that we’ve said we anticipate a warmer than normal month to continue (in the overall pattern sense) up until the last 5-7 days of the month. Does this help set the stage for a colder than average October ahead? Stay tuned…
Here’s a look at our precipitation outlook, compiled this afternoon using a variety of short and mid range forecast models.
Watch how the troughs (cooler air) and ridging (warmer air) correlate with the temperature pattern in our official forecast (posted earlier this morning).
