- Storm chances return late week
Happy Mother’s Day…High pressure will provide stellar weather conditions to celebrate mom outdoors today. Look for plentiful sunshine, low humidity, and warm temperatures. Enjoy the day!
Dry weather will continue through early week, along with progressively warmer conditions. A southwesterly air flow will also develop and help pull increasingly moist air out of the Gulf of Mexico northbound. It’s safe to say that humidity levels will grow into the “uncomfortable” category by midweek.
With that increasingly moist air mass in place and an approaching frontal system to our west, we’ll begin to increase scattered shower and thunderstorm chances by Thursday, continuing (in scattered fashion) into the weekend.
Upcoming 7-Day Precipitation Forecast:
- Snowfall: 0.00″
- Rainfall: 0.50″ – 1.00″

This Is More Like It…High pressure will build into the region over the weekend. With the exception of a weak disturbance that may kick up a couple showers across northeastern portions of the state Saturday, the balance of the upcoming 7-day period will be rain-free. This extended dry spell is certainly well deserved and should continue into early next week. Get out there and make the most of it!
A southwesterly air flow will help transport a warmer and increasingly muggy air mass into the region next week. While we’ll need to keep an eye on this increasingly moist and unstable air mass for storm chances, we’re siding with a more “optimistic” approach to the forecast period and hold storm chances off until Thursday. Regardless of storm chances, next week will certainly take on a more summer-like feel…to the delight of many!
Upcoming 7-Day Precipitation Forecast:
- Snowfall: 0.00″
- Rainfall: 0.50″ – 0.75″

A cold front will settle south today and lead to quite the temperature gradient across the state. Cooler north breezes will result in slowly falling or steady temperatures across the northern half of the state (upper 50s to lower 60s), while southern portions of Indiana rise into the lower and middle 70s this afternoon.
A new batch of showers will ride east and impact areas mainly along and south of I-70 as we move into late morning and early afternoon. While some embedded thunder is possible, severe weather isn’t expected today.

Drier and cooler air wins out for all tonight and paves way for a gorgeous weekend ahead. High pressure will support plentiful sunshine and comfortable conditions. More on the weekend and next week’s weather later today in an updated 7-day!

Nice Day Before Storm Chances Ramp Up Tonight…Once we get rid of the patchy fog this morning, a good deal of sunshine can be expected today before our next chance of storms. Better rain and storm chances will arrive tonight, especially north of the city. Locally heavy rain and a strong thunderstorm, or two, can be expected.
Scattered thunderstorms will continue Thursday morning before slowly settling south as we progress into the afternoon hours. This drier trend to end Thursday will be a prelude to the weekend. High pressure will build overhead and supply plentiful sunshine over Mother’s Day weekend, along with warmer temperatures. All-in-all, a well deserved, beautiful weekend awaits.
Dry, warm conditions will continue into early next week.
Upcoming 7-Day Precipitation Forecast:
- Snowfall: 0.00″
- Rainfall: 0.50″ -1.00″ (locally heavier amounts)
