Custom IndyWx.com Forecast Updated 04.12.14 @ 8:16a

Warm Spring Weekend. . .After a chilly start to your Saturday, temperatures will quickly warm on a developing southerly breeze and that powerful April sunshine.  We note that moisture will begin to increase through the afternoon and evening hours and this may help trigger a widely scattered shower.  That said, the majority of neighborhoods will remain dry and rain-free today.  Enjoy what will be a beautiful spring day!

Strong southwest winds will howl Sunday, but the majority of the day will be dry and include a partly to mostly cloudy sky.  A passing shower is possible during the day, but, similar to Saturday, most will remain rain-free.  Better rain and storm chances will arrive late Sunday night into Monday.

Cold Frontal Passage. . .A cold front will move through the region Monday.  Ahead of this boundary, widespread showers and embedded thunderstorms will rumble through the area late Sunday night into Monday.  Today’s model data has trended downward on rainfall numbers and our forecast will follow suit.  We forecast anywhere from one half to three quarters of an inch of rain with this system.

Colder Air Moving In. . .A much colder air mass will pour in on a gusty northwest breeze Monday evening and Tuesday.  Temperatures will run close to 20 degrees below normal Tuesday and a hard freeze is ahead for Wednesday morning.

Moderating Back To Seasonal Levels. . .Temperatures will quickly begin to moderate by mid to late week as we get back into a milder southwesterly air flow.  We’ll introduce shower chances back into your forecast next Friday as the next weather system draws closer to our region.

Upcoming 7-Day Precipitation Forecast:

  • 7-Day Rainfall Forecast: 0.75-1″
  • 7-Day Snowfall Forecast: 0.00″

The Weekend Is Here!

After a few clouds this morning, we’re looking at increasing sunshine as we progress through the day.  Simulated satellite shows this well.

Thankfully, this is a sign of things to come and a very nice (and warm) weekend is on tap!

High pressure will build in through the day, helping skies turn increasingly sunny.  A north breeze will keep temperatures cooler today than yesterday’s official downtown high of 74.

3

Most of Saturday will be dry and feature partly cloudy skies, but clouds will develop and a widely scattered shower will be possible during the afternoon and evening as moisture begins to increase.  Most will stay dry Saturday, however.

4

Sunday will be a windy and warm day, but with partly cloudy and dry conditions for the better part of the day.  Heavier rain and strong storms will develop to our west Sunday, but it’s really not until Sunday night into Monday when our immediate region will deal with this rainy and stormy weather.

  • Friday: Increasing sunshine; 65
  • Saturday: Partly cloudy; widely scattered PM shower; 43/ 71
  • Sunday: Partly cloudy and windy; developing nighttime rain/storms; 59/ 73

Custom IndyWx.com Forecast Updated 04.09.14 @ 8:31a

Sunshine Returns; Warming Up. . .Instability-driven thundershowers developed Tuesday afternoon across central Indiana and even produced small hail in a few locations, especially east of the city.  Thankfully though the sunshine we experienced Tuesday evening is a sign of things to come for the mid week stretch.  We forecast a mostly sunny to partly cloudy sky both today and Thursday, along with moderating temperatures.

A strong southwest breeze will help usher in potentially the first 70 degree day of the year Thursday.  We also note winds may gust upwards of 30 MPH (especially in the open country) Thursday afternoon.

Late Week Front. . .A cold front will move through the region during the day Friday.  Latest model data suggests a little more moisture will be available than we thought earlier this week and as a result we’ll hit the shower and potential thundershower chance a little harder Friday.  Anywhere from 0.25-0.50 of rain will be possible with this system as it moves through the area.

Watching The Weekend. . .While Friday’s front will only make it so far south, we’re still thinking Saturday will be rain-free for the majority of central Indiana.  We’ll note the threat of a shower down state and keep a close eye on things, but for now we’ll keep Saturday’s forecast dry and warm.  Get out there and enjoy a beautiful day!

Our next storm system will take aim on the region Sunday.  As such, clouds will increase and shower and thunderstorm chances will be on the rise as we go through the day.  We do note a rather large range in model forecast temperatures Sunday between the middle 70s per the European data to the lower 60s per the GFS.  For now, we’ll split the difference and forecast upper 60s Sunday with increasing rain chances as we progress through the day.  Stay tuned.

Brief, But Potent Blast Of Winter Chill. . .Another significant rain maker will blow through the region Sunday night into Monday.  At this early stage in the game, there’s a rather high probability of moderate to heavy rainfall (greater than 1″), but the bigger story will likely be the blast of winter-like chill that will invade next Monday night into Tuesday.  In fact, there may be just enough moisture lingering to result in some light snow or flurries Tuesday as the cold air pours in.

Upcoming 7-Day Precipitation Forecast:

  • 7-Day Rainfall Forecast: 1″ – 1.5″
  • 7-Day Snowfall Forecast: 0.00″
