Mister Weatherman cannot tell a lie, but he can make things *sound* better.
It will be cooler today. Only about 90 for the high in Indy. Yesterday’s 94 stands as the highest temperature the Airport’s reported this year. In fact, it was the hottest number since August 8 of LAST summer. It was the
Bloomington and Terre Haute also made it to 94 Lafayette’s high was 92 and Muncie hit 90.
Why is it a couple degrees cooler today? Believe it or not, a cold front went through yesterday late. The winds got frisky, then changed directions. That front wasn’t much, but it should push the 90 degree down a little farther south for today. The basic storyline, however, remains the same through Sunday. Temps well above average, although no record heat is expected. (Our best shot was yesterday – Indy missed it by 2 degrees.)
A complex of storms may move into Indiana from the northwest late Friday evening. I have a chance of showers and storms still in the Saturday forecast. Saturday Night still looks dry, and then the final front (for awhile) arrives with a decent chance of storms later Sunday afternoon and Sunday night. Drier air makes its move into Indiana Labor Day.
