Frosty start to Sunday, with some sub-freezing morning lows. The unofficial numbers include 29 in Terre Haute, Lafayette, and Bloomington, That where the clouds from last night cleared first. Lows were 33 in Indy and 36 in Muncie. It will be brighter today than yesterday. Despite the chilly start the afternoon will be about the same temperature as Saturday. The (lighter) wind today will shift from the northeast to southeast, setting the stage for a shift toward milder weather. Highs will be about average Monday through Wednesday. A cold front arriving Wednesday means business. Another inch of rain is possible, but no severe weather is expected this time. Speaking of rain, the entire state was above average in October. The first number is the rain total in inches. The second is how far above average that is. 5.46 (+2.34) Indianapolis 4.02 (+1.13) Lafayette 3.94 (+1.02) Muncie 6.49 (+2.96) Bloomington 4.33 (+0.76) Terre Haute Final totals for Richmond are not available yet, but I would estimate between 4.50 and 5 inches fell, which again would be above average.
