Out the door, it feels much colder when compared to this time yesterday.
Temperatures will continue to fall through the day today, and eventually turn cold enough for a little wet snow to mix with the leftover showers this afternoon- especially from the city and points north.
Looking ahead, after a dry Saturday, an upper level disturbance will dive southeast and lead to a mixture of rain and snow across the northern half of the state. Across northern Indiana, mostly snow is expected- where a light, slushy accumulation is possible.
Thereafter, high pressure will build in for early portions of the new week, supplying dry and chilly conditions.
It’s not until late next weekend when the next weather system of significance begins to impact the region with rain.
Overall, the upcoming (7) days will run cooler than average and drier than average for a large portion of the region from the Northern Plains into the eastern portion of the country. After the “bumpy” past few days, we’ll certainly enjoy the overall calmer period.
7-day precipitation numbers are paltry to say the least (on average only expecting around 1/10 of an inch of liquid for central Indiana). Most of what’s painted below is what is expected to fall with this Sunday’s system.

Type: Damaging Winds And Severe Potential
What: All modes of severe weather, including tornadic potential. Damaging wind gusts.
When: Damaging wind gusts develop late tonight into the predawn Thursday. Severe storms are most likely Thursday afternoon into early Thursday evening.
Wind: SW 45-55 MPH with gusts of 60 MPH+
A couple of rounds of thunderstorms will impact central Indiana during the overnight and again Thursday afternoon and evening. It’s the second round tomorrow afternoon that has us most concerned for the potential of strong to severe thunderstorms. A lot of this hinges on just how much clearing takes place from the morning round of showers and embedded thunder. Should we clear things out in significant fashion, and introduce some sunshine, the threat of severe weather tomorrow afternoon will grow significantly. Conversely, should we hold onto a mostly overcast sky, this will limit the overall severity of afternoon storms. The sun would help destabilize things in rather rapid fashion and given some of the other parameters in place, would lead to all modes of severe weather with storms that develop tomorrow afternoon- including large hail and tornadoes.
Additionally, due to the sheer strength of the storm system, damaging winds are still in play tomorrow (even outside of thunderstorms). In fact, winds will begin to gust upwards of 50 MPH+ during the overnight period tonight. If you haven’t already, please take the time now to tie down or secure loose objects to keep them from being blown about in the wind.
Conditions will begin to improve as early as tomorrow night, although we’ll turn much colder. Air will grow cold enough to promote “wrap around” moisture to fall in the form of snow by Friday afternoon.
