New SLight Risk For Today

Tonight looks like some potential storms could dive into the area and bring a wind and hail threat.

Slight Risk Friday

It looks like a slight risk for severe weather is currently forecast for Friday. Unidirectional winds should keep the tornado risk to a minimum but strong straight line winds and hail along with pockets of heavy rains and could to ground lightning are very possible.

Strong Weather Approaching

It looks like some strong weather will be coming into the state tonight. No watches will likely be issued but a possible isolated severe thunderstorm could pop up before this is all over.

Severe Thunderstorm Watch Issued for the Overnight

It has been an interesting few days watching the severe weather virtually split Howard County. Even today's morning storms skirted north or wait to become severe when it was just east of us in Grant County.

However this evening into the overnight has some of the best severe conditions we have seen in more than a month, maybe more. The good news is the worst should be in Illinois and may make a slide south of our area with the heaviest stuff.

We have a couple of hours before the storms begin here so take a moment check the batteries in the weather radio. You might need it before the night is over.

Thunderstorm Hits Kokomo

Slight Risk For Saturday

Saturday looks like a possible opportunity for some severe weather. Afternoon and evening storms could produce significant amounts of rain upwards of 1.5 inches. Gust winds could also be a factor. (Fair goers should be aware of conditions tomorrow.)

Non Event...

I have been pretty busy lately and have not posted detailed forecasts leading up to recent severe weather. I have not abandon watching the forecast models and have really not seen anything too impressive. Yesterday sure looked like a non event and in the end, I wa 100% on the mark.

If something does come up, I will be sure and let you know about it. :)

Thunderstorm Watch Issued Until Midnight

The NWS has issued a Thunderstorm Watch for our area. We are at the top of the watch box.

Our threat will likely be wind and hail along with rain.
