Highlights:
- Cold, dry midweek
- Snow changes to rain for central IN Thursday morning
- Much warmer times coming
Slushy Snow Late Tonight For Some…It’s a much colder feel out the door this morning! You’ll want the heavier coat. The good news? Dry conditions today, including lots of sunshine.
Our next fast moving storm system will spread snow into central IN during the overnight (after midnight for most) and accumulate for some (snowfall forecast below). For the city, itself, look for a slushy coating to 1″. Further north, a band of 1″-3″ is expected before the transition to rain mid to late morning. Northern IN will be the “winner” with this system, including a 3″-5″ band. All precipitation will be to our east by Thursday evening.
A dry close to the work week is expected before another fast moving storm system deliver a sprinkle Saturday, but this just doesn’t look to be a big deal at the moment. We’ll keep an eye on things.
We turn much warmer early next week, but clouds and showers may keep us from being as warm as we could’ve been otherwise. Better rain and storm chances arrive late Tuesday. A stiff southwest wind will be with us early next week.

Highlights:
- Increasing sunshine today
- Rain/ embedded thunder end as snow Tuesday
- Accumulating mid week snow
Busy Pattern This Week…After a windy and warm Sunday, a thin band of showers and embedded thunder moved through central IN last night. This was in association with a weak frontal boundary that will provide a dry start to the work week. Despite a cloudy start, sunshine should quickly develop as clouds decrease.
Quiet times won’t last long as our next storm system delivers showers and thunderstorms Tuesday. Colder air will quickly punch in here Tuesday afternoon and evening helping precipitation transition to wet snow before ending. We think the significant accumulations will remain north of central IN, but we’re keeping a close eye on things, nonetheless. Expect an evening update.
Busy times remain in the mid week period as a wave of low pressure spreads widespread snow across the area Thursday. Early indications would suggest this may be a plowable snow for some of the region.
As it stands now, moderating conditions and increasing sunshine are expected heading into next weekend. Longer term, a big ridge should develop across the area later next week. It’s a pattern supportive of anomalous warmth to the tune of 75-80 degrees….

Highlights:
- Beautiful finish to the weekend
- Mid week storm brewing with many questions
- Snow potential for some
- Colder pattern developing
Nice Finish To The Weekend; Mid Week Storm Brewing…A disturbance responsible for overnight/ early morning thunderstorms and heavy rain across southern IN is tracking east. Drier air is working in now and we’ve dialed up a beauty of a close to the weekend across central IN.
The work week will get started on a quiet note, but trouble is brewing for mid week as a big storm system lifts out of the southern Plains and into the lower Ohio Valley. We forecast a lowering and thickening cloud deck Tuesday followed by rain developing. As colder air gets pulled into the system, rain will begin to transition to a heavy, wet snow across portions of the area. Exactly who sees the transition and when remain in question and will have to be fine tuned as time goes along. That said, the potential is there for a heavy, wet snow “thump” across a portion of our area. Stay tuned.
This storm will set things into a much colder and rather active time to close the work week and head into next weekend.

Highlights:
- Strong to severe storms this evening
- Rain and snow showers Wednesday
- Dry and chilly to wrap up the work week
- Nice weekend ahead
- MUCH colder next week
Stormy Evening…Tuesday is dawning nice and quiet with dry and chilly conditions in place. A bit of fog has been reported just west and north of the city. The quiet times will give way to a bumpy ride by this evening as a warm front passes, allowing a strong SW breeze to boost temperatures close to 60 (after dark high).
Scattered showers will develop this afternoon, but it’s the evening hours that we bracket (between 4-10p west to east) for the potential of strong to severe storms. Some of these storms will be capable of damaging winds, and even a quick spin-up tornado can’t be ruled out. Have a way to get the latest weather information this evening.
We turn cooler Wednesday with lingering moisture falling in the form of mixed rain and snow showers. This won’t be a big deal.
Dry times will be with us to end the week and rumble into the Super Bowl weekend, with moderating temperatures. The moderating trend won’t last long as models continue to suggest an arctic blast looms next week. To go along with that cold, snow chances will also come.
