One-Two Punch Of Cool Air…

Screen Shot 2015-10-12 at 7.20.09 PMHighlights:

  • Windy times
  • Cooler air arrives
  • Showers Thursday night
  • Chilly finish to the week

A cold front swept through the region Monday evening with a band of showers and embedded strong thunderstorms across the eastern portion of IN.  Rainfall amounts weren’t impressive, unfortunately.  High pressure is now building in and will result in a much cooler and continued dry time through mid week.

A secondary cold front will blow into town Thursday evening with scattered showers and MUCH cooler, breezy conditions to wrap up the work week.  A chilly weekend is in store with frost potential Sunday morning.

A Warm Wind Monday…

Screen Shot 2015-10-11 at 8.46.23 PMHighlights:

  • Windy and warm open to the work week
  • Cooler times coming
  • Stronger front to close the week
  • Weekend frost potential

We’ll welcome a new work week with blustery SW winds (gusting upwards of 30 MPH Monday afternoon) and warm conditions.  A cold front will move through central IN Monday evening and cooler air will follow.  We’ll turn much cooler for mid week, along with pleasant skies.

A secondary (stronger) front will sweep through the area Friday.  This frontal system may include a couple showers, but the strong and gusty winds and MUCH cooler air will be the bigger deal.  Dry skies, but well below normal temperatures are on tap this weekend.  Many communities will be dealing with their first frost and/ or freeze come Sunday morning.

Winds Of Change…

Screen Shot 2015-10-10 at 5.09.58 PMHighlights:

  • Mostly dry theme continues
  • Get used to the term “breezy!”
  • Much cooler air coming

We couldn’t have asked for better weather for a Saturday and, thankfully, we’ll experience a repeat tomorrow (tack on a few degrees for afternoon highs).  Breezy SW winds (gusts upwards of 30 MPH) will kick temperatures up to near 80 Monday afternoon before a cold front sweeps through the region Monday night.  While an isolated shower is possible Monday, most of central IN will remain rain-free.  Cooler air will arrive Tuesday and Wednesday.

A stronger cold front will move into the region Friday.  Like our early week front, this one, too, will be moisture-starved.  Windy conditions and MUCH cooler air will be the big deal going into next weekend.  Most communities will experience their first frost Saturday and/ or Sunday morning.

Weekly Highlights: Action Out West…

Highlights10051011There’s a whole slew of new products we’re going to start rolling out over the next several weeks, including more videos, as well. One of the new features is a nationwide weekly highlight map, helping showcase the big-ticket weather items that have our attention over the upcoming week. While we could side with going with fancy graphics, we chose to go the route of a hand drawn map for old time sakes. 🙂 This will be posted on Sunday or Monday of each week.

1.)  The upper low associated with the catastrophic flooding in SC will continue to slowly pull away from the area as we progress into Tuesday.  Our thoughts and prayers remain with the fine folks of South Carolina as recovery and clean up begins.  Hard to believe areas of SC were in a significant drought as soon as last week.  Those exact same areas have received as much as 25″-30″ of rain over the past 72 hours.  Simply amazing stuff.

2.)  A series of storm systems will clip the Pacific Northwest with heavy rain and wind as the week progresses- particularly mid week into the weekend.

3.)  A storm system and significant moisture will move through the Four Corners region and into western Texas Wednesday into the weekend.  Heavy rain and localized flooding will result.

4.)  A cold front will move through the Mid West later this week with showers and embedded thunder, along with cooler air for the weekend.

As always, you can follow us on Twitter (@indywx) or e-mail us at bill@indywx.com for more on the variety of weather consulting we provide. Have a great day and God Bless!
