Storm chances continue-along with increasing heat!

Good Father's Day evening! Thanks for checking the blog! What a start to the day it was this morning! A squall line moved across southern Indiana, with damaging winds in excess of 60 mph and hail. Two tornados have been confirmed from this morning's storms just south of the river, in Breckinridge county, Ky.

How about those upper 80s and 90s I was predicting this weekend? Instead temperatures stayed in the 70s and 80s, thanks to clouds keeping things from heating up.

Storms stay in the forecast tonight, but not as widespread as last night. I will give about a 50% chance of storms across Indiana after midnight.

I have now added scattered storms in the forecast for tomorrow, given the humid and unstable atmosphere, with the warm front still hanging around. There will be plenty of dry time tomorrow, so don't cancel any plans. Highs will range from 85-90. Slight risk remains for severe storms!



Tuesday looks to be the hottest day of the week! We should see decent sunshine most of the day before scattered storms pop-up towards the afternoon/evening. Highs will range from 89-94, with heat indices nearing 100.

Wednesday looks like a wet and stormy day, with severe weather possible. Highs will be in the 80s.

Temps fall again towards the end of the week, with temperatures near 80 by Thursday, with scattered storms still possible. Isolated shower Friday, with highs in the upper 70s.

Next weekend looks nice for now, with really pleasant temps near 80! A frontal boundary looks to get caught somewhere in the lower Ohio Valley, so I wouldn't be so certain about dry weather next weekend, until confidence is higher. Should this front remain around Indiana? Then showers will be possible, but I will keep it dry for now. That is one active pattern!!!!
