Humidity Increases; Late Week Storms Then Cooler…

Highlights:

  • Sunshine and warmth continues
  • Increasingly muggy feel develops
  • Storm chances return
  • Much cooler next week

Very Warm And Increasingly Humid…High pressure will supply continued dry conditions, along with unseasonably warm temperatures through midweek.  A southwesterly air flow will help push an increasingly muggy feel into the region by Wednesday.  “Air you can wear” will be an appropriate way to sum things up!  🙂

That increasing moisture will eventually yield better coverage of showers and thunderstorms as we move through late week into the weekend.  It certainly won’t rain the entire time, but periods of scattered thunderstorms will be with us Thursday through Monday morning.  With high moisture content, locally heavy rains will be possible.

A cold front will move through the state Sunday night and Monday and result in a significantly cooler trend next week.

Upcoming 7-Day Precipitation Forecast:

  • Snowfall: 0.00″
  • Rainfall:  1.50″ – 2.00″

Pleasant Weekend; Summer-like Feel Next Week…

Highlights:

  • Drier trend develops
  • Warming up
  • Summer-like feel next week

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!

Front Settles South…

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!

Rain And Storm Chances Return…

Highlights:

  • Frosty start
  • Rain chances return
  • Dry and pleasant close to the week

Wet Weather Returns…Bright and sunny conditions are in place as we open up a new work week, and many are awaking to frost out the door this morning, as well.  Light winds, dry air, and clear skies allowed temperatures to plummet into the lower and middle 30s for many central and northeast IN neighborhoods overnight.

Clouds will increase later today and showers will arrive tonight.  We’ll introduce thunderstorms into the mix Tuesday as a frontal boundary begins to settle south.  That frontal boundary will begin to stall near the region midweek and additional waves of showers and thunderstorms will impact the region (especially the southern half of the state) through Thursday.

Drier weather will return to close the week and we expect a very pleasant start to the weekend.

A new weather maker will deliver a shower chance Sunday.

Frosty Mornings; Heavy Rain Returns Next Week…

Highlights:

  • Needed dry time
  • Frosty mornings
  • Heavy rain and storms return

Drier, But Unseasonably Cool…Much-needed dry time has arrived.  High pressure will dominate our weather pattern this afternoon through Monday, supplying dry skies.  Despite the return of the sunshine, temperatures will continue to run much cooler than average.  In fact, with drier conditions in place, overnight lows will tumble into the frosty range Sunday and Monday mornings. Cover up that tender vegetation.

Our next weather maker will arrive on the scene by the middle of next week as a frontal boundary stalls out over the region.  Unfortunately, this is a rather ominous signal for heavy rains to return.  We forecast periods of showers and thunderstorms Tuesday through Thursday before wrapping up the work week with scattered showers.  We’ll keep a close eye on the data over the next few days as additional heavy rains are the last thing we need.
