Warmer and wetter than normal. That’s the climate outlook through the end of this month.
The initial cool wave of September is likely over as we welcome warmer temperatures for the next several weeks.
Expect increased possibilities of above normal precipitation through the mid-September, particular in northern regions of the state
The big story this week was the much-needed rain throughout most of Indiana that fell on Monday (August 19th).
Sporadic rain events are barely bringing relief to sections of Indiana .
Even the climate models are confused by this year’s weather. When the August monthly outlook was released (July 31st; national Climate Prediction Center) it showed significant confidence that August would have below-normal temperatures and below-normal precipitation.
Another period of rain passed through the state earlier this week, providing limited rain to the northeast and southern counties.
The brief rain event earlier this week brought some precipitation to the state. However, the drier regions of the north could use more rain soon!
The brutal heat wave has passed, but there are still plenty of warm days ahead. Climate outlooks (over the next few weeks) are suggesting confidence of above-normal precipitation across Indiana.
