You’ll fight fog at first today in central Indiana. Blame the recent rain, light winds, and a mostly clear sky just above the fog. Fog will be followed by a much brighter day, with milder high temps.
When I say recent rain, I don’t mean a LOT of recent rain. Yesterday’s system didn’t put down much from Indy southward. Totals were higher to the north. Radar indicates up to a half inch fell around Peru.
WEDNESDAY RAIN
.19″ Muncie
.12″ Lafayette
.05″ Indianapolis
Totals should be higher from the next area of low pressure, which will bring shower and storm chances starting Friday morning around Lafayette and Friday afternoon into the rest of Central Indiana. Chances continue until Saturday evening.
