Feeling More Like Fall; Rain Builds In Tuesday…

Screen Shot 2015-10-25 at 10.29.14 AMHighlights:

  • Cooler and breezy
  • Soaking rain builds in Tuesday
  • Watching Halloween

A cold front moved through the area Saturday afternoon and evening and high pressure is now in control with dry skies, cooler temperatures, and breezy conditions.  All in all, a beautiful autumn day is on tap!  Enjoy!

Remnant moisture of Patricia will track north and team up with a cold front in the Tuesday-Wednesday time period.  Embedded thunderstorms and locally heavy rain can be expected.  This, of course, is much needed after what’s been a dry time of things the past couple months.

The cold front will sweep through the area Wednesday night and put an end to the rain.  Strong northwest winds will usher in a much cooler air mass to wrap up the work week.

We’ll continue monitoring the goings on for Halloween.  Models have varied from run to run over the past few days and timing issues will likely continue.

Upcoming 7-Day Rainfall Forecast: 1.25″ – 1.75″

Moderating Trend…

Screen Shot 2015-10-18 at 9.35.16 PMHighlights:

  • Breezy open to the work week
  • Moderating temperatures
  • Weekend rain chances

Two back-to-back freezes were felt across central IN over the weekend, including several reports of middle to upper 20s in neighborhoods away from the city.  As we open the work week, our air flow will shift to the SW and help boost temperatures with wind gusts up to 30 MPH Monday afternoon.  Dry conditions will prevail until Wednesday when an isolated shower/ sprinkle will be possible.

Better rain chances are expected this weekend as a cold front moves in.  Modeling suggests this boundary may be able to tap into just enough Gulf moisture to allow for more widespread rain coverage than what we’ve seen recently.  We’ll keep our fingers crossed.

Upcoming 7-Day Rainfall Forecast: 0.25″ – 0.50″

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.
