More Rain For Some; Watching Nate…
Highlights:
- Wet close to the work week for some
- Saturday storms
- Watching Nate
Unsettled Close To The Work Week…Thursday’s weather was just what the doctor ordered! Officially, here at IndyWx HQ, we recorded 0.73″. Many neighborhoods throughout central IN accumulated more than 1″ of much needed rainfall! Thankfully, additional rain chances are present as we wrap up the work week. Most widespread showers and embedded thunder will impact the northern half of the state Friday, especially the northern third of the state.
As we flip the page over to the weekend, mostly dry conditions can be expected, with the exception of a skinny line of thunderstorms that will blow through the state Saturday evening. These will come and go rather quickly and we’ll get into a slightly cooler and drier regime to wrap up the weekend.
Attention this weekend will be what comes of Nate. Overall, ideas haven’t changed over the past 24 hours, including an eventual late weekend landfall along the north-central Gulf Coast. That said, precise all-important details concerning overall strength are still debatable. Interests along the north-central Gulf Coast should monitor updates closely. Here on the home front, we note subtle differences between the GFS and European in regards to inland impacts. For now, we’ll go with a blend between the two, thinking most of the more significant, steady rains remain southeast of central Indiana.
Eventually a cold front will sweep through the state Tuesday night. This will result in a NW wind shift and cooler air spilling in here later next week.
Upcoming 7-Day Precipitation Forecast:
- Snowfall: 0.00″
- Rainfall: 0.25″ – 0.75″

Bonus Summertime…
Highlights:
- Scattered shower and t-storm chances return
- Warm pattern continues
- Changes loom later next week
Enjoy The Warmth While We Have It…A frontal boundary will “meander” around the Ohio Valley over the next couple of days. It’ll sink south as we close the work week before lifting back north as a warm front this weekend. At the same time, surface low pressure will track from the Plains into the Great Lakes this weekend. The end result will be more unsettled conditions returning to the region after our extended dry spell. It certainly won’t rain the entire time (in fact, most of the forecast period will be rain-free), but plan for scattered to numerous showers and thunderstorms at times beginning as early as Wednesday. Additionally, as the front sags south Friday, slightly cooler air will work into central Indiana before a warmer southerly air flow takes over once again this weekend.
As we flip the page to next week, a couple of frontal boundaries will push southeast. Additionally, the “wild card” in this forecast is what may eventually become of an area of disturbed weather in the Gulf of Mexico. While modeling differs on the evolution of things, a couple of solutions bring this into the north-central Gulf Coast this weekend before moving north and delivering widespread rain inland. It’s far too early for specifics, but we’ll keep a close eye on things.
Back to the FROPA discussion: The initial front won’t have much impact on area temperatures (still well above normal), but will be enough to include widely scattered storm chances early next week. The second frontal passage will lead to a MUCH cooler feel just beyond the current 7-day period. In fact, the air will grow chilly enough in the 8-10 day timeframe where it’ll actually feel more like November, and the first frost of the season may await for most of central Indiana…
Upcoming 7-Day Precipitation Forecast:
- Snowfall: 0.00″
- Rainfall: 0.50″ – 1.00″
