More Rain And Storms Ahead…

Screen Shot 2015-07-07 at 12.49.30 PMHighlights:

  • Periods of showers and storms through mid week
  • Can’t shake weekend storm chances, but drier, and turning hot
  • Scattered storms return early next week

A frontal boundary will slip south of central IN later this evening and take most of the heavy rain and storms south tonight into a good chunk of Wednesday.  However, the boundary will return north Wednesday evening in response to an area of surface low pressure moving northeast out of the lower and middle MS River Valley.  This will return the focus of showers and heavier thunderstorms for our region Wednesday evening into the first half of Thursday.  Similar to that of today, locally heavy rainfall is a good bet at times.

The area of low pressure will track east Thursday afternoon and take most of the moisture with it.  We’ll forecast drier times to wrap up the work week along with rising temperatures.  While we can’t shake weekend storm chances, Friday through Sunday will be drier, overall, when compared to the next couple days.  With the heat and humidity around, a few strong to severe storms are possible- particularly Sunday afternoon.  We’ll keep an eye on things.

Scattered, “splash and dash,” coverage of storms returns early next week.

Beautiful Weekend Shaping Up…

Screen Shot 2015-07-03 at 7.32.25 AMHighlights:

  • Scattered showers around today
  • Awesome weekend weather on tap
  • Dry conditions continue into early next week
  • Cold front delivers unsettled weather

A disturbance is moving along a cold front that sits to our south this morning.  This will keep scattered showers around central IN through the afternoon hours.

As we move into the holiday weekend we expect the frontal system to sink further south and focus best shower and thunderstorm coverage through the TN Valley.  Dry air will move in this evening and set the stage for perfect weekend weather- look for lots of sunshine, comfortable temperatures, and a light northeast breeze Saturday.

Our next weather maker will head our direction early next week in the form of a cold front. Shower and thunderstorm coverage will be on the uptick Tuesday into the mid week period as the front stalls nearby.

Mostly Dry And Cool; Looking Nice For The 4th!

Screen Shot 2015-07-02 at 7.32.56 AMHighlights:

  • Lots of clouds, but mostly dry and cooler than normal
  • Increasing sunshine for the holiday weekend
  • Scattered storm chances increase early next week

While we have considerable cloudiness around, rain chances across central IN will remain few and far between over the next several days (great news)!  Better chances of rain and storms will remain across southwestern portions of the state.

We’ll increase our sunshine going into the holiday weekend with only an isolated thunderstorm chance.  With the increasing sunshine, temperatures will also be on the rise, but still remain a couple degrees below normal.

Better coverage of showers and thunderstorms can be expected as we roll into early next week.
