Weekend Look; Hail Producing Showers, Storms This Afternoon!

Good morning and happy Friday, Hoosiers!  The region will remain under the influence of a swirling upper level low as we put a wrap on the work week.  This will keep chilly, unsettled weather in our forecast.  Temperatures will remain below normal through the weekend, though begin to moderate from the ridiculously chilly readings of late week.

We’re dealing with showers around the area now, but showers will intensify this afternoon and with all of the cold air aloft could easily produce small hail.  Here’s a look at forecast radar early this afternoon- 2pm.

The Storm Prediction Center (SPC) highlights the region for the possibility of small hail.

The other huge story will be the very cold temperatures tonight into Saturday.  In fact, we wouldn’t be surprised to hear reports of light frost in outlying areas Saturday morning with forecast lows in the mid 30s!  Sunshine will increase as we progress through the weekend and temperatures will respond, albeit slowly!  We’ll take what we can get!

  • Friday:  Mostly cloudy, scattered showers and thunderstorms (some stronger storms could produce small hail), 41/55
  • Saturday:  Cold start to the day!  Increasing sunshine, still a possible light shower, 35/59
  • Sunday:  Partly cloudy and nice! 38/64
