We open the forecast period dry and pleasant, but we turn stormy late Easter Sunday and MUCH colder air still looks to arrive as we welcome April. Details can be…

Highlights:
Showers And Embedded Thunder Today…Showers and thunderstorms will be with us for the majority of the late morning and afternoon hours before a cold front sweeps through the state tonight and sets up a dry, but much colder time of things for Good Friday. Locally heavy downpours are a good bet today, including some 1″+ totals across central parts of the state.
The first half of the Easter weekend is looking very nice. Certainly of the two days, we’d recommend getting that Easter Egg Hunt in on Saturday as clouds will increase Easter Sunday and give way to late day rain. Modeling isn’t in agreement on the timing of rain Easter, but we’re siding more with the GFS approach for now (earlier arrival when compared to the European). Stay tuned as we fine tune ;-).
Our “topsy turvy” weather pattern will continue into next week, but we still eye a significant cold front and associated MUCH colder air mass during the first (10) days of April…

Highlights:
Chilly Weekend…We’re dealing with a much colder feel this weekend (jackets and coats required as you venture out to watch the “madness” at your favorite local spot later today). That said, not all of the region will deal with precipitation. This morning into the early afternoon, showers will be most widespread from Indy and points south. Later tonight, another band of precipitation will develop in association with upper level energy, but mainly be confined to the western and southwestern parts of the state. It’s within this band, that we expect wet snow to mix in. With the exception of some early morning snow showers tomorrow, drier air should win out for the majority of the day. It’ll remain colder than normal.
We’ll open the work week on a chilly, dry note, but a warm front will lift through the state Tuesday. A quick-hitting shower is possible as the front lifts north, but the bigger deal will be a noted SW wind shift (it’ll turn gusty) and a much warmer feel by afternoon/ evening. Better chances of showers and thunderstorms will rumble into the state Thursday before we turn quickly colder by Good Friday.

Highlights:
Keep The Jackets Nearby…We’ve enjoyed April and May-like temperatures over the past couple weeks, so you knew we had to make up for the warmth sooner or later. Thankfully, the pending weekend chill isn’t anything we can’t handle. That said, it will serve as a rather rude shock to the system for those craving sustained spring.
We’ll wrap up the work week on a mostly dry note (only a spotty shower chance), but we’ll increase overall coverage of shower activity Saturday. While it’ll be far from a wash out, when you combine the areal increase of shower coverage and much colder air, it may be a day to spend indoors watching basketball (any excuse will work, right? ;-)). As colder air gets involved, it’s possible rain ends as a wet snow flake, or two.
We’ll turn briefly milder early and middle parts of next week as a warm front passes with showers Tuesday. Steadier rains arrive Wednesday before colder air returns yet again heading into the Easter weekend.
