  • Dry stretch of weather remains
  • Late week storm system offers up rain; t-storm chances
  • Much colder next weekend

Frosty Mornings To Start The Week…High pressure will dominate our weather pattern to open the new week.  As such, skies will remain mostly sunny and temperatures will be very pleasant.  Monday morning will feature the third morning in a row with sub-freezing air.  Expect another frosty start to the day, including outlying neighborhoods into the 20s yet again.

Looking ahead, our weather will remain rather uneventful until Thursday.  Dry conditions will remain, but southwest winds will become increasingly gusty by the afternoon.  This is in advance of an approaching storm system that will deliver showers, and perhaps a clap of thunder, Friday evening.  Timing will have to be fine tuned as we progress through the week.  Behind the boundary, much colder air will pour into the region on gusty northwest winds next weekend.  In fact, the air will grow cold enough to potentially lead to scattered snow showers Saturday night into Sunday in the left over “back lash” moisture.

Warmth Dominates…

  • Near record warmth
  • Windy conditions
  • Scattered showers to wrap up the weekend
  • “Ups and downs” next week

Hard To Believe This Is Late October…A strong southwest flow will help provide a windy, but incredibly warm Saturday.  Highs will approach record territory around 80.  (We’ll have to keep an eye on that 81 degree record set in 1922).  Southwest winds gusting around 30 MPH will be a good bet this afternoon, especially in the open country.

A weak disturbance will push southeast Sunday and help to increase our cloud cover, along with providing scattered showers- mainly in the afternoon and evening.  We’ll turn cooler, but still remain above normal for Halloween.  Trick-or-treat conditions look ideal, especially considering recent Halloweens have served up rain, storms, and snow across the region.

A warm front will lift north Monday night and offer up another opportunity to push for record warmth Tuesday and Wednesday before a cold front slides through Thursday with showers.  Cooler air will settle into the Ohio Valley and Mid West to wrap up the work week.

Warm Close To October And Open To November…

  • Cooler and blustery today
  • Warmer times coming to close the month and open November
  • Scattered showers return next week

Chilly Today, But Warmer Times Loom…A cold front swept through central IN earlier this morning.  Since we’re on the NW side of the front now, a cooler air mass is filtering in as we type this.  Today will be blustery and chilly with considerable cloudiness.  That said, the chilly air will only hang around for 24 hours, as we begin to moderate Friday afternoon.  SW winds will blow Friday PM and help give a chilly start to the day a rather significant boost into the upper 60s for a high.  Saturday will out-do that as we zoom into the middle 70s.

A weak front will slip through here Sunday and cool us off a few degrees.  While a light shower is possible as the front moves through, we think most stay dry.

We quickly return to the warm regime early next week.  At this time, Halloween looks mild and dry for those trick-or-treaters out there.

Looking further down the road, significant changes loom by mid and late November.  Those changes include the following words: cold and wintry…
