Indiana’s Weather For Wednesday

I guess after the Summer of ’12 we’re all cool with it being a little cool? Widespread 30s were reported this morning, as advertised.

Here are some unofficial lows so far:

42 Indianapolis
39 Fishers
Mt. Comfort
Seymour
Peru
Columbus
Bloomington
Muncie
38 Terre Haute
37 Marion
Kokomo
Lafayette
Ft. Wayne
36 Zionsville

After the morning chill-a nicer day, with the wind not as strong, and the sun lasting all day long. A wave is waving hello on the satellite shot making a morning move out of Minnesota into Iowa and Wisconsin.

That cold front will provide some clouds after midnight tonight into the first part of Thursday morning. I am forecasting rain chances from around Marion northward Thursday morning.

A second, stronger front flies in later Friday. (This will be the third consecutive Friday with fronts.) It brings a good chance of showers and storms, concentrated mainly in the afternoon and evening. At the moment, no severe weather is expected. Behind the front: dry and chilly this weekend.

How…chilly…is it? Today’s the sixth consecutive day of below average temps in Indianapolis. My forecast is at least another seven. The 8-14 Day Forecast trend through October 2 continues to run a little below average. We cool?
