Forecast Updated 03.06.14 @ 7:45a
Moving In The Right Direction…We set the stage today with a storm that, thankfully, won’t impact our region- a big Gulf of Mexico low pressure system will blow ashore this evening and result in heavy rain and thunderstorms for the southeast. Meanwhile, as the low lifts northeast, a big snow and ice event will occur across the western portions of North Carolina tonight.
Back here on the home front, we’ll enjoy increasing sunshine today after some morning cloudiness. Though temperatures will remain below seasonal averages, we’re moving in the right direction, as highs should hit the 40 degree mark for many- a vast improvement from earlier this week. This will then lead to a beautiful close to the work week- lots of sunshine and mild temperatures.
Brief Weekend Set Back…A cold front will drop south through the region Saturday morning and this will be accompanied by a light band of rain, eventually mixing with snow before ending. This won’t be a big rain or snow maker by any stretch of the imagination as moisture will be limited. Temperatures will slide backwards through the day and this will set the stage for a dry, though chilly Sunday. We’ll note an increasing westerly breeze (a sign of warmer times ahead) Sunday afternoon and gusts could approach 30 MPH.
Spring Tease…The weekend will be bookended by spring-like weather and Monday will actually “out do” Friday as highs zoom close to the 60 degree mark with sunshine and gusty southwest winds. Looking down the road, you better be sure to enjoy Monday!
Eyeing Mid Next Week…We have far more questions than answers right now concerning the potential storm by the middle of next week. (You can read more here). For now we’ll simply go with late day rain Tuesday transitioning to light snow Wednesday in a much colder air mass. Stay tuned.

Forecast Updated 02.19.14 @ 7:58a
Severe Weather And Flooding Potential…Today we’re focused on two rounds of thunderstorms and heavy rain. The first wave of rain and thunder will “rumble” through the region Thursday morning. We don’t anticipate severe weather with this initial wave, but thunderstorms will be capable of producing heavy downpours in spots as the warm front lifts north through the area. After a chilly start, temperatures will suddenly zoom to close to 60 by the afternoon.
Our attention will then turn west as we watch a line of thunderstorms organize this afternoon. Within this line of storms damaging straight line winds will be a possibility (in excess of 60 MPH) as it crosses the state. We bracket 5PM to 9PM for the most likely period for severe weather here in central Indiana. We think the greatest severe threat will lie within the squall line, itself, but we’ll keep a close eye on things as some data today tries to develop a couple of stronger individual cells in advance of the squall line. It’ll be important to stay tuned to local radars and your favorite media outlet.
Heavy rain and flooding will be the other concern, especially when combined with a presently frozen ground and hefty snow pack. If you live in, or around, a flood prone area please monitor water levels tomorrow and prepare to move to higher ground.
Finally, strong and gusty northwest winds will blow tonight and may reach speeds close to 50 MPH as low pressure deepens heading north into the Great Lakes. “Bombogenesis” and “fresh water fury” will be accurate terms to describe this low as it rapidly strengthens heading northeast into the Lakes region. With a wet ground, additional wind damage is possible even behind the cold front with winds gusting in the 50 MPH range.
Drier, Chilly Close To The Week…The above mentioned gusty northwest winds will allow a cooler air mass to blow in to wrap up the work week. We think dry skies return Friday and continue into Saturday.
Watching Fast Moving Disturbances; Bitter Cold Returns…We’ll continue to keep a close eye on disturbances moving east over the weekend. Disagreement amongst forecast models continues Sunday and we’ll “split the difference” and forecast light snow potential Sunday for now. Another disturbance may deliver light snow late Monday into Tuesday.
By the middle of next week, the arctic express will return and deliver a bitter feel to our air mass. Looking longer term, there continue to be indications that we have to deal with a bitterly cold close to February and open to March. In fact, latest data carries this cold and wintry regime well into March…
