After a wet night, a line of storms will rumble through central Indiana over the next couple hours. These will likely precede some brief clearing as we move into the late morning hours.
While the storms will remain below severe levels, non thunderstorm wind gusts very well may approach, if not exceed, severe criteria late morning through the afternoon. Gusts approaching 60 MPH are a good bet in spots through the region. Unfortunately some power outages and tree damage is expected across the area through the evening.
After a mild start to the day, temperatures will fall around lunchtime through the 40s and into the 30s by the evening rush.
Much more later today in our updated video discussion, including a look at the longer range pattern to close February and into March, along with a first idea of the summer pattern!

Our next storm system will take aim on the region tonight and Thursday. As low pressure tracks into the western Great Lakes, it’ll help pull 2 slugs of moisture north into the state.
A period of rain can be expected this evening (well after the evening rush).
Followed by another period of rain and embedded thunder Thursday morning. Heaviest rain totals (1”+ amounts) will favor western and northern Indiana with this system.
The bigger headline will actually be the strong winds Thursday morning. Sustained wind of 30 MPH with gusts to 50+ MPH will create the potential of downed trees, limbs, and increase the potential of power outages by mid and late morning.
Looking ahead to the “follower” system we’ve been discussing over the past week, modeling now has zeroed in on this being a southern and Mid Atlantic event Friday night through Super Bowl Sunday. While the ole saying goes “never trust a closed upper low,” it’s becoming increasingly likely a heavy, wet snow storm looms for the southern Appalachians and into the southern portion of the Mid Atlantic this weekend.
Meanwhile, an unseasonably mild pattern continues here next week.

While the work week will open on a quiet note, busy times await this week as we track 3 storm systems. The first of which will push light showers across the state late tonight and Tuesday morning. “Light” is the key word to focus on with this initial system.
A more robust and organized Storm will rumble out of the southern Plains and into the upper Mid West midweek. As such, a much more organized shield of heavier rain and embedded thunder will make a mess of things here Wednesday evening into Thursday morning. Widespread 1”+ can be expected area-wide with system number 2.
Finally, a 3rd piece of energy will follow on the heels of our midweek storm. While the cold air supply is marginal at best, there still looks to just be enough for more of a wintry theme with this late week system. Stay tuned. We’ll have a more detailed video discussion online this evening. Make it a great Monday!

Type: Winter Storm
What: Heavy snow and gusty winds
When: Overnight tonight through Wednesday afternoon
Temperatures: Lower 30s
Wind: E 10 to 20 MPH with gusts of 30 MPH across southeastern IN. Shifting to the north Wednesday PM.
Blowing/ Drifting: Minimal due to the wet nature of the snow
Pavement Impacts: Plowing and salting will be required throughout the region.
Summary: Central Indiana remains on deck for a heavy snow storm that will begin late tonight across southern IN, reaching the city itself, between 1a and 2a. Snow will quickly become heavy at times, including rates of over 1″ per hour. Needless to say, area roadways, including primary roads, will quickly become snow covered. Latest guidance is also suggesting embedded convective snow bands (thunder snow is not out of the question) will pivot into the city and surrounding areas, especially just west and north, mid and late morning. This “deformation band” will likely lead to jackpot totals approaching double-digits, and we’ve beefed our snowfall forecast up to account for these bands. “System” snow will end from southwest to northeast as we progress through the afternoon. We’ll then await on upper level energy to deliver additional light to moderate snow at times Thursday (additional light accumulation can be expected). Buckle up, there’s additional winter weather to follow…
Confidence: High
Next Update: 7:30a Wed.
