Category: Unseasonably Warm
A cold front will pass through central IN early this afternoon. As expected, most of the region will experience a dry frontal passage (FROPA). Latest high resolution short term model…

Highlights:
- Warm Thursday
- Cold front swings through Friday
- Great fall weekend coming
Thursday will feature another round of morning fog across central IN, but should be less widespread than the previous couple mornings. A southwest wind ahead of an approaching cold front will help boost temperatures up close to 80 this afternoon. As the front moves in Friday a broken band of showers and embedded thunder will accompany it. We’re not talking a lot of rain Friday, and the cooler air will be the bigger deal as we wrap up the work week and head into the weekend.
Another front will swing through the area Monday afternoon and evening. Ah, the “ups and downs” of fall will remain prevalent throughout the upcoming seven days…

Highlights:
- Dry, warm days continue
- Friday cold front
- Ups and downs of fall
Some mid and high level cloudiness will drift across the Mid West today and a sprinkle or two is possible, but filtered sunshine can also be expected after AM fog burns off. We’ll return to warm, sunny days and clear, cool nights tomorrow and Thursday and this will combine with the unseasonable chill of last weekend to continue putting the color change into high gear across central IN. BTW- the upcoming weekend should be fantastic for an autumn drive to take in the fall foliage.
A cold front will approach the region late Thursday and we bracket Thursday evening into Friday morning for the chance of scattered showers and thunderstorms. Cooler air will filter into the area as we head into the weekend.
The “ups and downs” of fall will continue next week as warmth arrives early in the week before cooler chances once again prevail later in the week….

October has started off on a dry, cool note. Note the 200%+ anomalies along the eastern seaboard in association with the Nor Easter. Our thoughts and prayers remain with…

Highlights:
- Windy, wet, and cold Saturday
- Much better Sunday
- Pleasant week upcoming
A widespread area of light to moderate rain encompasses central IN as we type this. It’s a chilly night across the region with temperatures around 50 and northeast winds gusting over 30 MPH. Unfortunately, we don’t have better news Saturday as winds remain strong and gusty and another push of moisture arrives from the east Saturday afternoon. Rain amounts won’t be significant, but serve as a great big nuisance when you factor in all of the elements (rain, wind, and unseasonably cool air). Jackets, coats, and sweaters will be required Saturday.
Thankfully, we’ll salvage a much better second half of the weekend as drier (and warmer) air arrives on the scene. The other bit of good news? Significantly diminished winds.
Much of the upcoming work week will provide dry and pleasant weather across the area- perfect for #Harvest15! Enjoy!

Highlights:
- Increasing clouds
- Shower chances go up tonight
- Much cooler air coming
The work week has gotten off to a pleasant and dry start with sunshine across central IN. That said, a quick look at the satellite shows clouds and moisture streaming north. Expect increasingly cloudy skies as we progress through the second half of the day with showers developing tonight. The region will be in a “squeeze play” of sorts Tuesday as a cold front from the northwest and tropical moisture from the Gulf of Mexico collide. The end result will be locally heavy rainfall downstate with numerous showers extending north into central Indiana, as well.
The cold front will sweep through the region Tuesday night and help usher in a much cooler air mass for the rest of the week, continuing into the weekend. Sweaters and jackets will be needed this weekend.

Highlights:
- Dry conditions continues
- Temperatures warm
- Weak front Saturday
It’s a very boring forecast as high pressure remains in control through the short-term. This will continue to promote dry conditions. Moderating temperatures can also be expected as our air flow backs around to the SW with time.
The only item of significance in this 7-day is a weak frontal boundary that will move through here with scattered showers Saturday. Slightly cooler air will push in behind the boundary, but it’s an overall very warm pattern.
