Happy Thanksgiving; Important Travel Weekend…

A nor’easter is making a mess of travel (in the air and on the road) up and down the east coast. Also note the clipper system digging through the mid…

Much Colder Than Normal; Light Snow Southwest…It’s only fitting that we’ll roll into the Thanksgiving holiday with the same overall weather theme we’ve dealt with for the month of November- MUCH colder than normal.  Dry skies can be expected today (with the exception of a few morning flurries).

Our next weather maker will scoot southeast and impact primarily the far southwestern portions of the region with light snow Wednesday (dusting to less than 1″ of accumulation).  A quick note- these type systems have been known to “overachieve” from time to time and we’ll keep a close eye on things the next 24 hours.

A few scattered snow showers/ flurries will be possible across central Indiana Wednesday into Thanksgiving Day, but shouldn’t amount to much.  Cold will be the big weather story.  Plan to have plenty of fire wood ready to keep a roaring fire going through the Thanksgiving get-togethers.

Black Friday shoppers can expect dry conditions and colder than normal weather continuing, but temperatures will begin to moderate after a cold and frosty start.

Warming Up…Our cold weather pattern will relax as we open up December and provide a taste of the November we never had (temperature-wise, at least :-)).  In fact, a 60 degree reading is possible later next week as a warmer southwesterly air flow takes control.  With the southwesterly flow in place, moisture will increase and we’ll mention the chance of light rain in our weekend forecast.

Upcoming 7-Day Precipitation Forecast:

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

Fresh Water Fury…

Low pressure is really wrapping up over the Great Lakes region this morning. Talk about fresh water fury… A byproduct of such strong low pressure is evident in the expansive…

Changeable Monday; Note On Thanksgiving; Warm Open To December…

We wanted to touch on a few items of business this evening.  There’s a lot of weather going on this week…

Monday will feature drastic changes in the weather department across central Indiana:

  • Day starts mild and with lingering showers.
  • Strong and gusty winds will reach speeds of 45-50 MPH.  Batten down the hatches!
  • Temperatures crash late morning into the afternoon.  We start in the lower 50s, but fall to the freezing mark for the drive home across western parts of the state.  Eastern Indiana will see 32 degree air by 7-8 o’clock.
  • Scattered snow showers and flurries will fly across central Indiana Monday evening.

Thanksgiving Cold And Snow:

Temperatures will be much colder than average (low to mid 30s for highs and middle 20s for lows).  We’re still tracking a weak disturbance that could distribute light snow across central Indiana Thanksgiving Day.  Accumulations, if any, would fall in the dusting to less than 1″ range.

Opening December Warm:

We’ve been talking about how this exceptionally cold and wintry early season pattern would have to “relax” at some point and that appears to be the case as we open December.  The potential is there for well above normal warmth for the first week to ten days of December before we reload the pattern and introduce colder, more wintry times for mid and late month (anyone dreaming of a White Christmas)?
