Good evening. After some early wake-up call thunderstorms moved across southern Indiana early this morning, at least we had a dry day of weather in most of the state. One tornado was confirmed in Dubois county, near the town of Duff. VERY heavy rain of 2-4" in areas caused water to flood some roads this morning. In central Indiana, it was a much lighter rain that fell last night, with only a little thunder.
Scattered storms are still possible tonight, but probably not widespread. There is a good chance of storms on Monday, as a warm front lifts north, and a cold front moves in. Much hotter and sticky weather will be around tomorrow, with highs in the upper 80s. The best chance for those storms will be tomorrow afternoon, with most of the state under a slight risk for severe storms!
The rest of the forecast is simple from Tuesday on. Sunny skies and very nice summer days! Highs Tuesday and Wednesday will be between 80-85, with very low humidity! Lows may drop into the upper 50s Wednesday morning. More sunshine for the end of next week, as the heat and humidity are back for the big 4th of July weekend. Highs will be in the upper 80s Thursday, and 90 or better Friday. There is a slight chance of storms next Saturday, with temps in the upper 80s-near 90.

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!!!!
Back to the storm threat tonight and tomorrow.. here are radars to track any storms that form tonight and tomorrow:
Indiana:

Jasper:

Evansville:

Bloomington:

Indy metro:

Regional radar:

Have a great night! I will try to update again tomorrow, so check back! You can also follow me at twitter, for the latest weather updates on the side of the blog.

Scattered storms this evening-Heat and Humidity by the weekend!
Good evening! There are scattered strong storms across southwest Indiana, and you can track those by clicking "radar" at the top of the page. Temperatures continue to stay cool, near 70 degrees.
Skies will clear tonight, and some patchy fog is possible by morning. Temps will drop in the low 60s.
Lots of sunshine is in the forecast tomorrow, with temps back in the low 80s. It will be breezy as well. There is about a 20% chance of a stray storm north of I-70 tomorrow afternoon.
A better chance of pop-up storms is expected Friday-Sunday, with heat and humidity making a big comeback! Mid 80s Friday, upper 80s Saturday, low 90s by Sunday. There will still be plenty of dry hours.
Next week will start HOT, with temps on Monday around 93, with sunshine and high humidity. Heat index will be back near 100 degrees late Monday. Scattered storms return next Tuesday and Wednesday, with low 90s next Tuesday, cooling back to about 86 by next Wednesday, in central Indiana.
Thanks for checking the blog! You can also check the blog on your phone, because I now have a mobile version of the blog.

Cooler weather to stay for a while!
Good Sunday afternoon! I hope everyone is spending their day outdoors in this great weather! Low humidity, sunshine, and temps in the low-mid 70s! After 2 weeks of 90s and humidity, this is just what we needed!
Tonight will be plain chilly for June, with lows in the low-mid 50s! Open your windows!
Tomorrow will be another beautiful one, with most of the state staying in the 70s. Skies will be partly sunny for most, with more clouds in the southwest parts of the state.
Tuesday-Thursday can expect rounds of storms and heavy rain moving from the northwest to the southeast across the state. Highs will be in the upper 70s Tuesday, then low 80s Wednesday and Thursday. I am not expecting washouts, but rain is certainly possible.
More showers and storms are possible through next weekend, with temps warming near average, in the mid 80s.
This type of pattern can put down some heavy rain. We could use the rain, as things have really dried out with all the heat and lack of rain lately. Check out the GFS rain potential Tuesday-Thursday:

Have a great evening, and enjoy this nice weather!
