Good Evening! Not too much has changed from Monday Mornings Weather Blog. I sound like a broken record. The 90° heat will continue for atleast another day, Thursdays rains chance still looks pretty dry, and weekend temps may cool off a little bit to the mid to upper 80s.
We hit 86° Thursday, 91° Friday 93° Saturday, 88° Sunday, 92° Monday, 93° Tuesday, and 93° Today putting the 7 day Avg High Temp at 90.8°. We haven't had a 7 day avg high temp like that since the end of August into Early September (August 29-September 4.)
Today Marks the 9th Day this year and 6th day this month with a temperature 90° or above. Today also mark the 38th days this year with a high temp 80° or above and the 14th consecutive day this month 80° or above. All before the clock had stuck the 7:09PM mark when summer officially began. Welcome Astronomical Summer!
Models have been all over the place for the weekends temps between low 80s and upper 80s. I'm gonna simply go in the middle and say mid 80s for both Saturday and Sunday. Cooler weather spills in for the beginning of the next work week with some areas in the state only recording highs in the upper 70s for Monday and Tuesday Afternoon.
Rainfall chances are still pretty bleak for the rest of the month. In fact, another Omega Blocking Pattern could be shaping up. This is where high pressure sets up in between a trough of low pressure on each side of the country preventing any rain systems to filter into the state. This means mostly sunny skies for Indiana next week. Also it will not be as warm either.
The dry spell could end tomorrow as a cold front approaches but I cannot make any guarantees. I hate to say it but the entire state is looking at less than a quarter of inch of rain with the best chance North and slim to none for Central Indiana heading South. I've take a chance for rain out my 10 day outlook for Sunday which also looks slim to none there. I'll keep you updated on this in the next few days. You can follow me on Twitter @A_JayLuck for daily weather updates (See the Right Hand Side of the Page) for quick timeline of tweets.
We are over 5" of rain below normal for the year and now nearly 3" below normal for month. I'm keeping an eye for 2 record setters. One for Driest June ever (0.36" set in 1988) and the other for Driest Month ever in Indianapolis History (0.07" set in March 1910). Indiana Record keeping began back in 1870.
