Highlights:
- Very nice close to the week
- Sunday storm potential
- Another blast of fall-like air to open the week
High pressure will remain in control of our weather to wrap up the week. As a result look for lots of sunshine and dry air to continue. The next couple mornings will get off to an unseasonably cool start, but the late August sun will help us warm quickly to around 80 today and Saturday. Enough southwesterly flow will be in place Sunday to bump temperatures and moisture levels a “touch.” As a cold front slides into the area we’ll add scattered to numerous thunderstorms into the picture Sunday afternoon and evening. Forecast models vary considerably on rainfall totals, including not much more than one tenth of an inch from the GFS to around an inch with the European. The 12z Canadian is very aggressive suggesting a swath of 2″ through central IN. We’ll discard that solution for now and side with a blend between the GFS and European.
The big story next week is another push of well below normal, unseasonably cool, air! If you aren’t craving fall now then you’re certain to by early next week! (Ah, we’re so close to football season I can hardly stand it).
Upcoming 7-Day Rainfall Forecast: 0.50″ – 1″
