The temperature turnaround is here. I think this forecast into the first of June makes lots of sense.
Is there a window in Terre Haute for the Race? Yeah, I think the “500” and the little “500” will not be rained out, but there is at least a chance of showers and storms next weekend. The biggest chances will be in the afternoon and early evening. A more prolonged period of precipitation is possible Wednesday night and again Carb Day Friday. At the surface, high pressure dominates the eastern US Sunday morning. A moist flow will bring a typically muggy feel to the fans in the stands.
