Are you ready for some football today?
Weโve got a GREAT Saturday of college football ahead, and the weather is looking pretty nice for many of the biggest games across the country.
Who are you watching today?
Don't get used to these cool, Fall temperatures just yet. We are expecting warmer than average temperatures to return over the next couple of weeks. The 80's are not out of the question in early October this year!
What we will be watching...
The main weather concern is today into Monday: thunderstorms and locally heavy rain as the front crosses Indiana.
And the temperature change is substantial.
Fall officially arrives this week, and the weather will cooperate!
After a stunning Labor Day, we will heat up and increase humidity levels until our next cold front moves through. Expect a hot and humid Tuesday & Wednesday.
Thunderstorms will make a return on Wednesday into Thursday as the cold front moves through our state.
A cold front moves through Indiana during the course of the day. A Heat Advisory is still in effect for central and southern Indiana with heat indexes above 100 this afternoon. Isolated showers and thunderstorms are possible throughout the day, but most people will stay dry.
Another chance for severe thunderstorms in Northeastern Indiana today. Damaging winds will be the main threat with these storms. If you're in Fort Wayne, South Bend, or anywhere Northeast, be weather aware for a few storms in the area later today.
Northern and Northeastern Indiana under a Slight Risk (2 of 5) for severe thunderstorms today. Damaging winds is the primary threat. Storms will move through this afternoon until the early evening hours.
Extreme Heat is expected again today for much of Indiana. Expect a little higher humidity as well. This heat will peak tomorrow and you'll feel true relief come Sunday when winds shift to the north/northwest behind the cold front. Hang in there!
Itโs going to be a HOT one in Bloomington Saturday!
Indiana kicks off at noon, with temps expected to climb during the game and potentially approach 90ยฐ by the final whistle.
The hottest kickoff temperature weโve been able to document at Memorial Stadium is 91ยฐ, set in 2015.
Could Friday night be one of the hottest Purdue football games ever?
Purdue kicks off at 7 PM Friday at Ross-Ade Stadium, and temperatures could still be near 90ยฐ at kickoff.
The hottest kickoff temperature weโve been able to document at Ross-Ade is 90ยฐ, set back in 2011.
Are you ready for the summertime heat & humidity to return?
You will feel it this week when you step outside. Be sure to take care of yourself if you need to be outside. Expect extreme heat conditions if you have to be outside for a prolonged period of time.
