Category: Severe Weather

While we haven’t had very many true summer-like days over the past week, today certainly will feel very “summery!”  Look for hazy sunshine, hot, and humid conditions.  The Storm Prediction Center has placed northwest Indiana under a Slight Risk of severe weather late today.  We’ll keep a close eye on area radars as we move into the nighttime hours as storms upstream will likely track southeast and arrive into central Indiana during the early morning hours Wednesday.  These will likely be in a weaker state than what our neighbors to our northwest will experience, but still a gusty storm is possible.  A second round of storms will likely fire up Wednesday afternoon, but we still think the redevelopment takes place south and east of the city Wednesday afternoon.  While a local downpour is possible Wednesday, we’re not looking at any sort of significant rains on a widespread basis, unfortunately.

A much cooler, drier air mass will build in as we put a wrap on the work week, but we’ll eye an unsettled weekend pattern, including scattered shower and thunderstorm chances Saturday and Sunday.  Another push of even cooler air will then blow into town early next week.  It’ll feel very fall-like as we close out July and open August.
