Tuesday: Have the rain gear on hand as the morning commute will be a soggy one with areas of dense fog. We look to get a lull in activity by the early afternoon hours. By the late afternoon hours, re-development looks to take place. Isolated thunderstorms will be possible once again with this round of activity. Severe weather is not anticipated for now, but this could change.

Not only are we anticipating a wet Tuesday, but we will be on record high temperature watch. Indy’s record high for Jan. 3 is 65, and numbers will be right on the doorstep of that record. Winds are also going to be breezy with gusts up to 30 MPH.
