SEVERE STORMS POSSIBLE THIS AFTERNOON

Good morning! The heat out there is out of control already, and the humidity is downright oppressive. The heat index is ALREADY 106 at 11 this morning! This is very dangerous, as heat illnesses can certainly happen very quickly when you add humidity to the already scorching temperatures. Highs today will once again top the century mark, with 102 expected in Indianapolis, which will once again break a record!


JUST IN- as of this blog update, a severe thunderstorm watch has been issued for most areas north of I-70. It appears a thunderstorm complex may move across northern Indiana this afternoon. This could mean damaging winds, and heavy rain in these areas, which will be a big relief from the heat and drought. Unfortunately, this complex may not reach portions of central and southern Indiana, but I will be watching the radar closely this afternoon! 


You can track the storms as they develop by clicking the "radars" tab at the top, also, you can keep an eye on the weather across all parts of Indiana by clicking the "Indiana weather cams" tab at the top of the page!


While we don't want severe storms, let's hope for some drenching rain later today! I will update my facebook weather page as needed. Have a great afternoon-stay cool!
