Heavy rain and storms this weekend
INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — Scattered showers and storms started the morning on Saturday with temperatures in the 60s. An area of low pressure will bring several rounds of potentially heavy rain to the area over the next 24 hours.
A Flash Flood Watch has been issued for much of central Indiana from 11 a.m. Saturday until 11 a.m. Sunday. There is a chance of a stronger storm Saturday afternoon with a slight risk in most of the viewing area.
The main threats with the storms will be damaging winds, hail, flooding and an isolated tornado. Scattered showers and storms will continue overnight with lows cooling to the upper 60s.
Father’s Day will have a soggy start with a few strong storms during the morning hours. Once we see the first batch of morning showers move out, mid to late morning should be dry with a few rays of sunshine breaking through the clouds.
There will be dry periods through the day with highs warming to the lower 80s. There could be a few scattered showers developing during the afternoon. By the end of the weekend most spots will easily pick up 2-3″ of rain.
There will be a daily chance of scattered showers and storms through much of next week with highs just a shade below the average high. Most locations will top out in the upper 70s and lower 80s.
