Zionsville, IN After a weekend featuring plentiful rain and embedded thunderstorms, it was nice to see the return of the sunshine to kick off the new work week. For those craving a more fall-like feel to the air, well you have your wish with low humidity, warm days, and cool nights in store this week.
Tuesday through Friday: Mostly sunny; Lows in the lower 40s early in the period, rising to the upper 40s by Friday morning. Highs in the upper 60s Tuesday and lower to middle 70s Wednesday through Friday.
High pressure will remain in firm control of our weather as we progress through the rest of the work week. After a cool start to the period (some outlying areas will dip into the 30s tonight), temperatures will moderate through the remainder of the week, getting back above normal by mid week. Mostly sunny skies will prevail this week, giving us a much needed chance to dry out after the heavy weekend rainfall.
Saturday: Partly cloudy; 52/ 76
Our next storm system will begin to approach the region for the second half of the weekend. The way we see things now is that we should get a dry first half of the weekend in with just some increasing cloudiness during the afternoon. It’ll be a nice Saturday with above normal temperatures and dry conditions.
Sunday: Showers; 0.25; 59/ 70
A cold front will pass through the state Sunday and feature scattered to numerous showers as it crosses the region. We’re not looking at any sort of heavy rain or severe weather with this frontal passage.
Monday: Partly cloudy; 56/ 69
Similar to that of today, we should see the sunshine return to kick off the new work week, after a gloomy end to the weekend. Temperatures don’t appear to be particularly cool behind Sunday’s frontal passage, but we’ll shave a couple of degrees off the thermometer next Monday.
