When will it warm up in Central Indiana? 80-degree temps are coming soon
While Memorial Day weekend traditionally signals the unofficial start of summer, early spring-like weather is clinging to Central Indiana.
Temperatures over the past several days have ranged in the upper 50s to the low 70s — not exactly ideal conditions for cannonballing into the many outdoor public pools now open across Indianapolis.
The National Weather Service predicts cool and rainy weather will persist Tuesday through Friday, which might have some Hoosiers wondering when summer will begin?
Here's what we know about when things could warm up.
As of Tuesday, meteorologists at the National Weather Service in Indianapolis predict temperatures will climb into the 80s beginning Saturday. The high is expected to reach 81 with a low of 58 on Saturday night.

When will storms arrive in Nashville? Will CMA Fest be impacted? What we know
The second day of CMA Fest started with fans taking cover from the Nashville rain. On June 6, festival organizers postponed the stage openings because of a thunderstorm. Downpours are likely to continue as all of Middle Tennessee is at low to medium (level 2 out of 5) chance of severe storms during the afternoon and evening hours. The National Weather Service is warning primarily of damaging winds, and heavy rainfall. There is a low chance for isolated large hail and a very low chance for tornadoes, added the weather service. Here's what else festival goers can expect throughout the weekend. June 6: Due to inconsistent weather models, there is uncertainty about when storms are expected to impact the Nashville area, said the weather service. The general trend, however, suggests that the main line of storms might arrive later than initially expected, possibly hitting the Nashville area around 6-7 p.m. on June 6. "Regardless, folks out and about today should stay weather-aware through the evening," said the weather service. Storms should wane by midnight, but unsettled weather continues June 7. June 7: According to the weather service, forecast models suggest a large cluster of thunderstorms — that will be active over Oklahoma — will move southeast, meaning the strongest storms could either hit southern Middle Tennessee or miss the region entirely. "It is possible that the strongest storms will affect southern Middle Tennessee and miss the Nashville Metro Area altogether," said the weather service. However, even if storms bypass Middle Tennessee, the area will still have plenty of instability and moisture, which could lead to additional thunderstorms through the afternoon and evening hours, said the weather service. A slight risk for severe storms remains in place, but confidence in severity remains low and is dependent on the exact storm path. June 8: By June 8, a weather front will move through Middle Tennessee, causing storm activity to decrease. However, there will still be some chances of rain, mostly in the southern and eastern parts of Middle Tennessee. "Depending on how quickly the front makes it through the area, Sunday has the potential to be a nicer day, especially for any outdoor events in and near the metro area," said the weather service. Friday: Showers and thunderstorms likely, mainly after 2pm. Partly sunny, with a high near 90. West wind around 5 mph. Chance of precipitation is 70%. Partly sunny, with a high near 90 and a 70% chance of showers and thunderstorms. Then mostly cloudy, with a low around 71 at night and a 60% chance of showers and thunderstorms before 4 a.m. followed by a slight chance of showers. Saturday: Mostly cloudy, with a high near 84 and a 70% chance of showers before 10 a.m. followed by showers and possibly a thunderstorm between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Showers are likely to persist past 4 p.m. Then mostly cloudy, with a low around 70 and a 70% chance of showers and thunderstorms likely before 7 p.m. followed by showers and possibly a thunderstorm between 7 p.m. and 1 a.m. Showers are likely to persist past 1 a.m. Sunday: Partly sunny, with a high near 86 and a 40% chance of showers and thunderstorms before 7 a.m. followed by a chance of showers between 7 a.m. and 10 a.m. Showers are likely to persist after 10 a.m. Then mostly clear, with a low around 67 and a 10% chance of thunderstorms before 7 p.m. Monday: Partly sunny, with a high near 85 and a 60% chance of showers and thunderstorms after 1 p.m. Then mostly cloudy, with a low around 66 at night and a 40% chance of showers and thunderstorms before 1 a.m. followed by a slight chance of showers. Tuesday: Mostly sunny, with a high near 84 and a 20% chance of showers and thunderstorms after 1 p.m. Then partly cloudy, with a low around 63 at night. Wednesday: Mostly sunny, with a high near 86 then mostly cloudy, with a low around 66 at night. Thursday: Partly sunny, with a high near 88 and a 20% chance of showers and thunderstorms.
