INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — New month, same active pattern still holding strong in central Indiana. We will continue to track rain and storm chances the next several days with cooler temperatures ahead.
Before going any further, April 2025 finished as the fifth wettest April of all time in Indy. It was also the first time we had 8″+ of rain in April since 2013.
Thursday night: Scattered showers and isolated storms will persist into early tonight. Coverage then turns more isolated into the overnight hours. Lows in the upper 50s with breezy winds subsiding closer to midnight.
Friday: We’re eyeing a dry start to Friday with some sunshine. Then, additional scattered showers and storms are on the table Friday afternoon and night. We can’t rule out isolated stronger storms south of Indy.
Highs will top out in the low to mid 70s.
Saturday: A cooler day is shaping up for Saturday. There will be an upper low that begins to settle in place, and another area of surface low pressure will creep in from the southwest. This will cause a continued chance for some isolated to scattered showers and highs that only make it into the low to mid 60s. For those running in the Indy Mini-Marathon Saturday morning, there is the chance for a few showers, and no lightning is expected as of now.
7-Day Forecast: The aforementioned upper low really locks in by Sunday, and there looks to be an Omega blocking pattern that fully forms by then too. This is when you have two distinct upper lows with an area of higher pressure wedged in between. Sunday keeps the theme of scattered showers and temperatures on the cooler side. We won’t really break from this pattern until next Tuesday-Wednesday.
