A Severe Thunderstorm Watch has been issued for all of central Indiana until 10:00 PM EDT tonight. The ample heat and humidity combined with favorable upper air conditions and a nearby warm front will provide the fuel for numerous popup thunderstorms. These thunderstorms could be strong to severe. The main threats are damaging winds and large hail. There is still a possibility for a brief tornado or two.

The Storm Prediction Center has issued a Moderate Risk for Severe Storms for the south western portion of Indiana. An Enhanced Risk spans the entire western half of the state and a Slight Risk covers the eastern portion of the viewing area. The primary threat is damaging wind in excess of 70 mph. The environment is primed for isolated tornadoes as well. Hail isn't as much of a threat.

The most severe storms will enter the state by 6 or 7PM and will be exiting the state by around 3AM.

The highest threat for tornadoes is in the yellow hatched area in the fourth map. This area has an elevated chance of seeing EF2+ tornadoes.

WeatherNow Indiana will be following the storms as they enter the area, so stay tuned and stay weather aware tomorrow!

Snowfall analysis time!

The first image is my final call forecast, while the second image is actual reported snowfall (the color palettes between the two are different and the amount incriminates are different, but please bear with me).

The 12”-18” band was limited to north western Indiana due to the second wave shifting south and being less intense to the north than expected. Areas like Huntington and Muncie receiving between 8”-11” as opposed to the 12”-18” that was expected.

My final forecast wasn’t as detailed at the official report, but it’s important to compare forecasted totals to official totals to learn from them for forecasting future events!

The line you see drawn on the map is the line that separates pure snow from mixed snow and rain. If you live around that line or north of it, you are likely already seeing snowfall. Areas on or just south of that line are already seeing some mixed precipitation.

Citizen reports from towns as far south as Fishers and Westfield are reporting mixed precip there. One in northern Indianapolis is reporting rain.

Stunning timelapse taken by Grace Whitaker at Purdue University! The timelapse takes place between 7 and 11 am, and you can see just how fast the snow came down once the full transition from rain happened!

If you all have pictures and videos of the snow, feel free to message them to the page or leave them in the comments and let me know the area you took them in and the time, and I’ll repost some of them and credit you!

Video was taken by me on Purdue’s campus in West Lafayette around 10:30 AM

02/02/2022

Snow is falling in the entire north western part of the state. The cold front has just passed the Crawfordsville and Kokomo area. The system is moving to the north east while the cold front pushes south east, so the transition over to snow will be snow. I expect the first flakes to fall in Indianapolis around 3 PM or 4 PM.

The snow will be heavy right away, so expect visibility to be lowered on your drive home from work.

A winter storm warning continues for the majority of the viewing area, with an ice storm warning just south of our viewing area. Some counties to the south in our viewing area such as Lawrence, Jackson, Jennings, and Ripley counties could see a burst of freezing rain Thursday afternoon, but a trend of cooling aloft is indicating that precipitation on Thursday will likely start as sleet and transition over to snow, so ice isn't as large of a concern is it is for the southern part of the state.

The NWS has issued a winter storm warning for counties to the north of our viewing area.

We are expecting a large band of 12"-18" from just north of Indianapolis to the northern extremes of the state. The heaviest snowfall will take place during the day on Thursday, complicating morning and afternoon commutes.

This will be a very heavy and wet snowfall, meaning that it will come down in large clumps. Because we are expecting a brief lull in snow Wednesday night, this will give time for the snow to compact some, meaning overall less accumulation.

Wind gusts will be high at times, especially during the day on Thursday meaning reduced visibility and locally higher snowfall totals due to drifts.

The ice threat has greatly diminished for southern Indiana, but a glazing in excess of 2 tenths of an inch can't be ruled out, causing for some slick roadways.

There is still variability in this forecast, but I will be covering the updates as new data is released.

Overall, stay weather aware!

A Winter Storm Watch has been issued for much of central Indiana. A weather system is expected to bring a lot of snow and some ice to the state prompting this watch.

There is still some uncertainty surrounding snow and ice totals, but the general consensus right now is increasing snow totals as you move north and west, and increasing ice totals as you move south and east.

The storm is expected to begin tomorrow afternoon as mostly rain, but will transition over to snow throughout the morning and day on Wednesday. We're expecting brief lull in the rain and snow Wednesday night, before a resurgence of heavier precipitation across the state early Thursday morning. This is when the increased threat for heavy snow and ice potential is at its highest, making for a difficult commute Thursday morning state wide. Snow is expected to continue throughout the day on Thursday, before ending and moving out of the state early Friday morning.

A snow and ice total map will be released later today as data is constantly being updated. Stay safe and weather aware this week!

Central Indiana is in the path of a system bringing a considerable amount of snow between Tuesday and Thursday. I’ll have my first snowfall forecast uploaded tonight!

There's a severe thunderstorm warned storm with some embedded rotation heading across the Illinois/Indiana border in the next few minutes. The rotation is broad, so there isn't the threat of a tornado in it at this moment. The main threat from this is 60mph winds.

This severe thunderstorm warning is for Fountain, Warren, and Vermillion Counties until midnight tonight.

Many of our southern and western counties are under a tornado watch until 3AM tonight.

A tornado watch means conditions are favorable for tornado development.

We'll be up until the threat is over covering these storms, keep your phones turned on and your ringers on to make sure you get emergency updates when warnings are issued.

10/12/2021

Tonight is going to be a pretty stormy one. The atmosphere is primed for severe weather across the whole viewing area, with the primary impact being damaging winds, secondly tornadoes, and then a very low chance for large hail.

The timing is between 8PM and 9AM, the first round which will be the most severe should end around 2 or 3AM, with the second round coming in around 5 or 6AM.

Tornadoes that form in the hatched region over south western Indiana have an increased chance of being significant (EF2+), but the overall chance of tornadoes is about 10% within 25 miles of any given point in that hatched region.

I'll be up all night covering this severe weather, so if you're hearing thunder, tune in!

Temperatures right now across the viewing area are frigid, in the upper 20s and lower 30s. This pattern is going to change tomorrow though with much warmer temps, even getting into the 60s by Friday. With this pattern change also comes a risk of severe storms for Friday night. As more data is made available, I'll be giving a more detailed forecast for Friday night.

08/12/2021

There's some snowfall off to the south tonight that is going to leave a little accumulation on the ground. Totals will be less than an inch overall by tomorrow morning.

The snow off to the north is barely making it to the ground due to how dry the atmosphere is right now, so no accumulations north of the Richmond to Terre Haute line are expected at this time
