Another Spring Week In Indiana

Last Wednesday turned out to be a non-event in Indiana but was quite active in the central plains. Kansas, Nebraska, Oklahoma, Texas saw a significant outbreak of tornadoes with 71 reported. The report from the Storm Prediction Center (SPC) can be found here - http://www.spc.noaa.gov/climo/reports/070328_rpts.html

Today was a windy one in the area. The afternoon clouds looked pretty ominous but that was about it.

This week will bring another chance for storms with Tuesday looking to be a very good chance for severe weather in all of Indiana. The current 3 day outlook from the SPC which is the most general of the convective outlooks gives us a 30% outlook.

It will be worth watching to see what happens and the next hint will be the what the SPC does with a more detailed 2 day outlook.

Now for the really bad news, forecasters are talking cold wintry weather at the end of the week including some snow flakes. Ugh!

Slight Risk for Severe Weather

The Storm Prediction Center of Norman, Oklahoma has put this area under a slight risk for severe weather. The current convective outlooks has it for all 3 days Thursday, Friday, & Saturday. Of course the slight risk includes damaging winds, hail, possible tornados. The slight risk is 5% of anything happening anywhere within 25 miles of any point in the slight risk area.

Welcome to spring in Indiana.
