After a relative “lull” in the rainfall coverage and intensity overnight, rain is expanding in coverage and intensity yet again this morning. While there will be a rather sharp cut-off to the west, additional heavy rains are ahead from northwestern Indianapolis ‘burbs (including places such as Brownsburg, Whitestown, and Sheridan), Indianapolis, and points south and east.
HRRR simulated radar shows this rain shield nicely as we progress through mid and late morning.
Additional rainfall of 1″-1.5″ is likely from Indianapolis and points south and east with this band of rain before drier weather finally works in here this afternoon and evening. Otherwise, expect continued windy, cold, and raw conditions today as temperatures remain in the 40s this afternoon, including wind chills in the 30s.
Looking ahead, one last batch of rain will arrive on the scene Saturday morning.
We’ll finally get rid of the rain and introduce a drier regime Saturday afternoon into Sunday, including a sunny close to the weekend. With the drier air, overnight lows will fall to frosty levels Sunday and Monday mornings (lower to middle 30s).
More on the longer range this weekend!
