Warmer for Friday, hot by the weekend

INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — We got to enjoy a seasonable Thursday with plenty of sunshine and light winds. Temperatures will continue to warmup as we move towards the weekend with summer heat and humidity eventually returning.

Thursday evening: The comfortable night trend is set to continue for our Thursday night under partly cloudy skies. Lows will bottom out in the low 60s.

Friday: A mix of sun and clouds will be in place throughout our Friday as a system passes to our north. There is the chance that we could work in spotty showers in the afternoon hours. Better rain chances will stay to the north.

Highs will rise into the mid 80s.

Weekend: Skies will become mostly sunny for our Saturday as we return to a hot and more muggy feel. Highs will climb into the upper 80s before we look to tap into the low 90s for Sunday. Heat index values will be in the mid to upper 90s for Sunday.

8 Day Forecast: As we get into the new workweek next week, steamy conditions are expected. Highs will hold onto the lower 90s through next Wednesday. Heat index values could approach the triple digits. With the heat and humidity in place, daily rain and storm chances are in play for much of next week.
