Long Range Outlook for the week of May 26
A stalled frontal boundary to the
south of Indiana will continue today to bring showers and possibly a few
thunderstorms to southern Indiana. This boundary will slowly lift northward
through midweek bringing chances for showers and thunderstorms to central
Indiana as well by midweek. By early Thursday a dry backdoor cold front will
move over the state and push the frontal boundary well south of the state. High
pressure will build in for the rest of the work week. Highs will be in the
upper 70s to around 80 for the work week.
There’s "Unhealthy for Sensitive Groups" (USG) concerns for the
northwest portion of the state for tomorrow. The smoke models show no
impact from wildfire smoke over the next couple of days, consistent with recent
conditions. A significant source of wildfire smoke right now, as indicated by
the models, is in the southern and far northern United States, but neither
model shows an impact from these plumes reaching Indiana.
