Widely Scattered Showers, But Most Remain Dry…Most concentrated rain and heavier rainfall totals will remain confined to southern portions of the state as an area of low pressure continues to impact the region.  Here across central Indiana, look for lots of clouds, but little in the way of concentrated rain over the weekend.  A widely scattered shower is possible today and Sunday, but most will remain rain-free.   We officially call for a high around 80 today and in the lower 80s Sunday, but want to stress there will be a wide range in highs both days across central Indiana (due to cloud cover).

Early Week Cold Front…A cold front will sweep the state late Tuesday.  Ahead of this boundary, scattered showers and thunderstorms will be possible Monday afternoon.  Low pressure will form along the frontal boundary over Indiana Tuesday before moving northeast into the Great Lakes.  This may aid in better coverage of showers and thunderstorms locally on Tuesday.  Otherwise, we’ll note a wind shift and cooler, drier air pouring back into the area Tuesday evening.

Beautiful Mid/ Late Week Stretch…A beautiful stretch of weather is on deck for the middle and latter portion of next week.  Early fall-like conditions can be expected Wednesday and Thursday, before temperatures begin to moderate Friday.

Looking a bit past the 7-day forecast shows our next storm system taking aim on the region next weekend.

7-Day Precipitation Outlook:

  • 7-Day Rainfall Forecast: 0.50″-0.75″
  • 7-Day Snowfall Forecast:  0.00″
Widely scattered showers will be possible this weekend across central Indiana. More concentrated, heavier, rain is on tap across southern portions of the state.

Watching Storms To Our Northwest…Fog is locally dense in many communities across central Indiana this morning and it’ll take a couple hours to burn off.  Plan for extra drive time on your way to work and school.  Once the fog burns off we’ll look at mostly cloudy skies today along with the chance of showers this afternoon.  A complex of thunderstorms is off to our northwest this morning and the general track will take this complex of showers and storms into our general area later this afternoon in a weakened form.  Not everyone will get wet, but rain chances will be around this afternoon and evening.

Friday Battle…Forecast models continue to struggle with exact heavy rain placement Thursday night into Friday, mainly due to how they handle an area of high pressure to our north.  Thinking here continues to suggest we’re under the gun for a rather rainy Friday, but must maintain this is a lower than normal confidence forecast.  Central and southern Indiana appears most at risk for locally heavy rainfall, including some 2″ totals somewhere in the aforementioned region.  Widespread 0.75″-1.25″ amounts remain a good bet.

Increasing Sunshine This Weekend…Sunshine will be welcome after a rather gloomy work week.  We forecast high pressure to build in and supply partly cloudy and pleasant conditions this weekend before rain chances return early next week.

7-Day Precipitation Outlook:

  • 7-Day Rainfall Forecast: 2.00″
  • 7-Day Snowfall Forecast: 0.00″
We'll keep an eye on showers and thunderstorms to our northwest this morning. Forecast high resolution data points to this arriving into central Indiana in a weakened form this afternoon.
