A week of dry weather ends with scattered showers from a cold front slowly moving through the state today. The biggest chance of rain will come in the morning hours, although showers may continue into the afternoon and early evening from Indianapolis east and south-ward. The rain chance should be gone by afternoon in Lafayette and Kokomo, but continue in Muncie and Richmond. The system will slip away early Monday and we should end up with nice weather again until another front threatens Thursday. Scattered showers – and some thunder – will be a threat through Saturday. After dipping back to nearly normal today, the highs will return to above average for about another week. Speaking of highs, yesterday’s top temp in Indy capped a climb noteworthy for its very steady steps. The high was 79 Wednesday, 80 Thursday, 81 Friday…and 82 Saturday. Small straight!
