Beneficial Steady Rains Coming Overnight…
I’m just getting settled back in from Auburn, AL, but wanted to update a couple of items before a complete 7-day post in the morning.
1.) Rain is continuing to become more widespread to our southwest and will overspread southern and central Indiana during the overnight into the wee morning hours Tuesday. Most communities will accumulate 0.50″-1.00″ of needed rain, but a few locally heavier totals (closer to 2″) can be expected. The HRRR forecast rainfall totals by 11am (when most of the rain will be ending across even our eastern counties) looks solid and we agree with this for the most part. Note the heavier forecast totals across southwestern Indiana.
2.) A cold front will sweep the state Friday night into Saturday morning and result in a MUCH cooler weekend. Temperatures will fall to well below normal levels (by 5-8 degrees on average) over the weekend and result in a perfect, early fall-like, feel! Highs Saturday through Monday will likely only range in the lower to middle 70s with overnight lows in the lower 50s (a few readings into the 40s can be expected outside the city).
