April 15th, 2009 at 4:36 am by Ken Brewer under Weather

TODAY: The upper-level low pressure system will stay close enough to impact our weather for one more day.  Mainly cloudy skies will linger and highs will only hit the low to mid 50’s.

Rain continues to spin around an upper-level low pressure system.  No severe weather is expected, but we could see some moderate rain from time to time this morning.  Activity should become more spotty after the upper-low passes.

Late Morning Weather Update

April 13th, 2009 at 11:39 am by Ken Brewer under Weather

Rain is becoming spotty in areas south of I-70 and the steady rain is moving away.  This will allow for some sunshine to pop-out and warmer temperatures to return.  This will add some instability and slowly increase the severe weather threat from I-70 south.

I think the higher chances of severe weather will occur around Bloomington, Columbus, Seymour, and areas to the south, but we will have to monitor the situation carefully this afternoon.

9:00am Weather Update

April 13th, 2009 at 9:04 am by Ken Brewer under Weather

Rain still covers most of the viewing area, though it is breaking up south of Bloomington and Columbus.  There may even be a slight wintry mix north of Muncie,  but it should stay liquid on the warmer surfaces.  We will monitor the breaks in the rain to see if they may fuel stronger storms this afternoon.

Rainfall has spread across the viewing area, with some pockets of heavier rain forming around Kokomo, Muncie.  Still, the highest rainfall totals are west of Indianapolis.  Still watch for the possibility of strong storms later today.
