Tuesday began with Flash Flood Warnings south of Indy, including parts of Clay, Greene, Monroe, Owen, and Sullivan counties. Over three inches of rain was reported. Exactly one inch fell in Indy.
But it won’t last. The upper trough and cold front bringing the rain pain will move east and south (respectively) of central Indiana by afternoon. The steady rain should end by 9 or 10 am around the Indy metro, and by noon to the east and south of Indy.
TUESDAY MORNING TOTALS 3.65" Sullivan (Sullivan County) 3.55" Spencer (Owen County) 2.69" Jasonville (Clay County) 2.20" Elletsville (Monroe County) 2.12" Bloomington 1.80" Franklin 1.41" Greenwood 0.38" Muncie 0.23" Lafayette
High pressure makes a cameo appearance tonight and tomorrow, with some nice weather and lower humidity. Cut your grass tomorrow, because a warm front will bring back the heat and humidity early Thursday, along with the chance of a pop-up storm.
Good chances of storms will return Friday into Saturday morning. A cold front wipes the heats and humidity off the board for at least a few days after that.
