It’s been exactly one week since the Indianapolis high temperature went above 70. And it’s been exactly one week since the average temperature has been above normal. High pressure starts the day drifting over Kentucky and Tennessee. That should make for a cold – but brighter weather, and that should make a lot of Lilly […]
Fall continues to fall into place. Today’s the second start in the 50s already this month in Indianapolis. Indy was only in the 50s six times in August, and not at all in July. Fall means football, and there will be a seasonably chilly breeze at Soldier Field today for the Colts/Bears game. Scattered morning […]
Nice day for a little racing. The Brick-Cast is mostly, then partly sunny. Hot but not humid. Light and variable morning wind becomes south at about 5mph by afternoon. YOUR DAY AT THE SPEEDWAY: 9a: 72 | 12p: 83 | 5p: 91 Today’s high forecast is identical to the high on “500” Race Day in […]
It’s the Weatherman Wedgie today – Indiana is sandwiched between and a stalled frontal system south of the Ohio River. Upper level low pressure should ride along that front, and into Central Indiana Friday. The chances for widespread rain seem to be improving. We’ve had trouble tapping Gulf Of Mexico moisture this summer to help […]
Are you going to see “Rock Of Ages” this weekend? Get ready for *that* song by Journey. When I was a disc jockey “Don’t Stop Believing” was one of my least favorite Journey songs to play. Who are these “streetlight people?” And look at any weather map. “South Detroit” would actually be…Canada. I would have […]
I think it was the great 70s weather philosopher Roseanne Roseannadanna who said: “it’s always something.” At the moment we’re worried about air quality and grass fires. Four years ago today Indiana was reeling from two weeks of anything but dry weather. Check out this 2008 recap: May 30, 2008: Three twisters…an EF-2 from Marion […]
Summertime sunshine for much of your time off, with at least the prospect of precipitation looming large as the weekend ends. Does it get any better than this? Humidity will start increasing a little Sunday morning, and clouds will start increasing a little Sunday afternoon. Rain chances return after midnight Sunday night. At the moment, […]
Hot, hot, hot, hot stuff! (I actually Googled Donna Summer to make sure I had the right amount of “hot.”) Highs returned to the 80s yesterday, and should stay there for the next week. Temperatures will jump this weekend, but I’ve backed off the 90 degree forecast for Sunday. There are some hints that clouds […]
The Pacers, the Racers, and Mother Nature all generate heat today. Then, storm chances and a fast break from the hot and dry weather. It’ll be back big time *next* weekend, when we could be talking triple digit heat index numbers for Race Day. Stay tuned. (For the greatest spectacle in racing.) Today’s temps will […]
Attention Sports Fans: Mister Weatherman has examined the weekend maps and charts and decided that it will officially be “Hotter than Hibbard” out there. The sun is the Center of our weekend story. Winds will begin shifting from the east to the southeast today, opening the door to the 80s again. As the winds shift […]
