Fantastic Friday; Storms Return Saturday Evening…

  • Pick of the week is today
  • Evening severe potential Saturday
  • Unsettled stretch continues

Have The Sunglasses Handy Today…Today is easily the pick of the week as high pressure supplies sunshine and a cool start.  With the May sun angle in place, chilly morning lows in the lower 40s will quickly rise into the lower 70s for afternoon highs.

A cold front will approach Saturday and slice into a briefly warm and humid air mass in place across the region.  With highs approaching 80 and dew points surging into the lower 60s, don’t be surprised by strong to severe thunderstorms across central IN during the afternoon and evening hours.

The cold front will slip to our south for Sunday, but remain close enough to continue shower chances across central parts of the state.  It’ll be a much cooler day with a north wind in play.

As we move into the new work week, we’ll continue the active and unsettled theme.  While it won’t rain the entire time, expect numerous showers and embedded thunderstorms through mid week.

Beauty Of A Sunday…

Screen Shot 2016-04-24 at 11.14.16 AMHighlights:

  • Sunny close to the weekend
  • Warm and increasingly humid early week with showers
  • Widespread rain and storms Wednesday
  • Significant rain maker to open May

Good Supply Of Vitamin D…High pressure will remain in control of our weather today and supply mostly sunny skies and warm temperatures.  Get outside and enjoy!

Moisture will begin to increase as we progress through the early portions of the work week with showers and scattered thunderstorms developing Monday into Tuesday.  We’ll still enjoy lots of dry time in between the scattered showers.

More widespread showers and thunderstorms will push into the state Wednesday.  Early numbers suggest amounts of 0.75″-1″.  Lingering showers remain Thursday morning, but we should get a nice push of dry air in here Thursday afternoon into Friday.

Attention will then shift to a significant system that promises to provide heavy rain and embedded thunderstorms as early as Saturday night.  We still have time to watch this, but from this distance it appears as if this will be a “juicy” storm system.  We’re also eyeing a much cooler open to May…

Saturday Morning Rambles…

April is running nearly 6° below average and nearly spot-on where we should be from a precipitation perspective through the 15th.       As we move forward, the big story…

Sun-Filled Weekend…

Screen Shot 2016-04-15 at 7.45.25 AMHighlights:

  • Dry times continue
  • Warmer days ahead
  • Weak system arrives Tuesday

Have The Sunglasses Handy…There’s no reason to waste many pixels on this forecast as a ridge of high pressure remains in firm control of our weather, keeping us dry and mostly sunny through the weekend.  A weak swirl in the atmosphere will provide a few clouds and a spotty sprinkle across far southern IN today.  Otherwise, sunny and warm times remain through the weekend into early next week.

A weak weather maker will provide scattered showers by Tuesday, but this doesn’t look like a big deal from this distance.
