Pleasant Stretch Continues For Now…

Screen Shot 2015-10-05 at 10.10.52 PMHighlights:

  • 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….

Monday Weather Notebook…

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…

Cold, Raw Saturday; Sunday Rebound…

Screen Shot 2015-10-02 at 10.24.21 PMHighlights:

  • 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!

Warm Start To The Week, But Cool Changes Coming…

Screen Shot 2015-09-28 at 8.52.01 AMHighlights:

  • 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.
