Unseasonably Warm Open To November…

Screen Shot 2015-10-31 at 8.56.22 AMHighlights:

  • Windy and showery Halloween
  • Dry time returns with warmth
  • Watching a more substantial storm at the end of the week

Good morning and happy Halloween, friends!  We’re off to a cold and blustery start.  Temperatures in the 40s, along with a stiff east breeze is presenting a chill in the air!  A rather gloomy day is on deck with “showery” conditions at times, but there will be more dry time than not.

The second half of the weekend will turn brighter and very pleasant, and this will really set the tone for what will be a very tranquil first few days of November (where is time going)?!  Unseasonably warm conditions will be with us for the balance of the upcoming work week and provide a great opportunity to get those yard chores taken care of or Christmas lights put up.

A more substantial storm system will arrive late week with showers and thunderstorms followed by colder air next weekend…

One-Two Punch Of Cool Air…

Screen Shot 2015-10-12 at 7.20.09 PMHighlights:

  • Windy times
  • Cooler air arrives
  • Showers Thursday night
  • Chilly finish to the week

A cold front swept through the region Monday evening with a band of showers and embedded strong thunderstorms across the eastern portion of IN.  Rainfall amounts weren’t impressive, unfortunately.  High pressure is now building in and will result in a much cooler and continued dry time through mid week.

A secondary cold front will blow into town Thursday evening with scattered showers and MUCH cooler, breezy conditions to wrap up the work week.  A chilly weekend is in store with frost potential Sunday morning.

Pleasant Stretch Continues For Now…

Screen Shot 2015-10-05 at 10.10.52 PMHighlights:

  • Dry, warm days continue
  • Friday cold front
  • Ups and downs of fall

Some mid and high level cloudiness will drift across the Mid West today and a sprinkle or two is possible, but filtered sunshine can also be expected after AM fog burns off.  We’ll return to warm, sunny days and clear, cool nights tomorrow and Thursday and this will combine with the unseasonable chill of last weekend to continue putting the color change into high gear across central IN.  BTW- the upcoming weekend should be fantastic for an autumn drive to take in the fall foliage.

A cold front will approach the region late Thursday and we bracket Thursday evening into Friday morning for the chance of scattered showers and thunderstorms.  Cooler air will filter into the area as we head into the weekend.

The “ups and downs” of fall will continue next week as warmth arrives early in the week before cooler chances once again prevail later in the week….

Upcoming 7-Day Rainfall Forecast: 0.10″ – 0.25″

Weekly Highlights: Action Out West…

Highlights10051011There’s a whole slew of new products we’re going to start rolling out over the next several weeks, including more videos, as well. One of the new features is a nationwide weekly highlight map, helping showcase the big-ticket weather items that have our attention over the upcoming week. While we could side with going with fancy graphics, we chose to go the route of a hand drawn map for old time sakes. 🙂 This will be posted on Sunday or Monday of each week.

1.)  The upper low associated with the catastrophic flooding in SC will continue to slowly pull away from the area as we progress into Tuesday.  Our thoughts and prayers remain with the fine folks of South Carolina as recovery and clean up begins.  Hard to believe areas of SC were in a significant drought as soon as last week.  Those exact same areas have received as much as 25″-30″ of rain over the past 72 hours.  Simply amazing stuff.

2.)  A series of storm systems will clip the Pacific Northwest with heavy rain and wind as the week progresses- particularly mid week into the weekend.

3.)  A storm system and significant moisture will move through the Four Corners region and into western Texas Wednesday into the weekend.  Heavy rain and localized flooding will result.

4.)  A cold front will move through the Mid West later this week with showers and embedded thunder, along with cooler air for the weekend.

As always, you can follow us on Twitter (@indywx) or e-mail us at bill@indywx.com for more on the variety of weather consulting we provide. Have a great day and God Bless!

Cool, Crisp Start; Dry Weather Continues…

Screen Shot 2015-09-13 at 8.34.01 AMHighlights:

  • Chilly start
  • Sunshine galore
  • Moderating temperatures

October-like weather will remain in place today, complete with wall-to-wall sunshine.  We suggest finding a way to get outside to watch the Colts kick off the season!  Dry conditions will remain with us for the balance of the work week before we introduce shower and thunderstorm chances into the forecast heading into next weekend.  Timing differences are there in regards to the arrival of our next cold front, but for now we’ll mention scattered showers and thunderstorms Friday and Saturday.

Summer Like Now, But Fall Weather Is Coming…

Screen Shot 2015-09-07 at 9.57.37 PMHighlights:

  • Shower and storm chances
  • One-two punch of cooler air
  • Very fall-like weekend

A cold front is draped across the Plains this evening helping to ignite thunderstorms.  This front will slowly continue to push east and be responsible for increased chances of showers and thunderstorms across our neck of the woods late Tuesday into Wednesday.  We think a rather large area of showers and thunderstorms will diminish in intensity and coverage as it pushes across the state Tuesday night.  For an area that’s grown dry as of late, that’s not the news we want to hear.  There will be another opportunity for showers and thunderstorms to develop ahead of the frontal boundary that passes late Wednesday.

Drier and cooler weather will build in to close the work week, but a secondary push of cool, autumn-like air will arrive in time for the weekend.  Add in some upper level energy and we’ll need to mention a passing shower Saturday and Sunday.  It’ll feel drastically different this weekend that what we experienced last weekend.  Pumpkin spice latte, anyone? 🙂
