Some fog is on the early morning menu for Thanksgiving Day 2012, but it won’t stay as long today. Winds will stir the weather pot by midday, gusting to around 20 mph by this afternoon and tonight. That removes one key fog factor.. Weather number crunchers love Thanksgiving because we have two different sets of […]
During this week of Thanksgiving I give thanks for my years of working alongside legendary television meteorologist Bob McLain. One habit of Bob’s I noticed early was that he would actually walk outside and look up and around before a broadcast. SEEMS obvious, right? It’s very easy to spend all your time staring at monitors […]
Fog is a factor again Friday morning, but the fog and low clouds shouldn’t last as long today. One reason will be an increase in wind speed by midday and afternoon. It will be a gusty weekend, with Saturday afternoon breezes to 25mph, and Sunday wind gusts up to 30mph. Expect warmer degrees in the […]
It’s Festival Of Festivals today in Indy. German, Scottish, Italian…represent! The City of Southport is also having a Fall Festival today with a classic car Show and live bluegrass. And wet grass? Rain moving east and northeast along an advancing warm front could mess with those festival this afternoon. Showers are possible from around Indy […]
One of my default running routes takes my past a golf course. That course looked busier to me Saturday than it has all summer. Can’t blame ya. Low to mid 70s, a few Mare’s Tails in the sky, and low humidity at tee time. “Mare’s Tails” is a term used to describe wispy cirrus clouds […]
Wake up! We’re taking the weather pattern off auto-pilot. (Or “Otto Pilot,” if you’re a fellow “Airplane!” fan.) You’ll see more clouds today, and a cold front waits in the weather wings, arriving late tonight. Our official rain deficit remains at a little over 3 inches for the year. Not much is expected tonight through […]
Let me be a good weather host and make you comfortable. It’s gonna be a nice day! Dew point temperatures will be closer to the upper 50s and 60 instead of the mid 60s, and that means less humidity. Hey, it would be a great day to run 13.1 miles, right? That Indianapolis dew point […]
Indianapolis has a slight risk of severe weather today, with the biggest chance coming in the afternoon. Several inches of rain and wind gusts to 70mph in the overnight and early morning hours of Friday caused Flood Warnings in west central Illinois and Eastern Iowa. At the moment severe weather doesn’t look likely this weekend, […]
Indianapolis is warming up after two days of freeze warnings and three days in a row of below normal temperatures. That’s a big deal this year, considering we’ve yet to string together more than four below-average days. What’s warming us? A huge storm is spinning up in the western Plains and it will shift our […]
Happy Easter, Poteet Peeps! Timing is everything, and the only precipitation of the weekend sneaked in while most of you were sleeping. Temps today will be just slightly cooler than yesterday. It’ll still be in the mid 60s, but it will be a bit breezier. Not enough to dislodge your bonnet, but the direction has […]
