Indy 500 Weather: Night Before Update
Good news for campers: it appears the chance for showers and storms overnight are diminishing. Biggest threat is in the southern third of the state. Now, to Race Day, and the next threat that was on the menu. An approaching frontal system. IIRC it’s been 10 years since rain shortened a “500.” Storms are expected […]

The STAR’s Curt Cavin says the kind of heat I’m forecasting for today will translate to about 140 degrees ON the track. Overheated tires may lay down excess rubber, making the track slippery and […]
