Rain Gear Needed…A storm system will lift north along the Ohio River between now and Saturday night before crossing the Appalachians and “jumping” to the mid Atlantic coast Sunday into Monday. This will result in periods of rain today and Saturday. Heaviest and most concentrated rainfall will remain along and south of the I-70 corridor- especially across southwest IN. For the majority of us, this won’t be a major rain event.
Improving weather will develop for the 2nd half of the weekend as we introduce at least a little sunshine into the forecast. That sunshine will set the tone for the new work week, including a nice stretch of weather (by late-December standards) Monday through Wednesday.
A cold front will blow through the state Thursday with a shower possible, followed by colder air to close the work week.
Looking ahead towards Christmas, we still anticipate this to be around the timeframe that we’re transitioning back to colder air. It’s far too early to get specific around rain or snow, but the transitional pattern does support the idea of more active times. Stay tuned…
