Stormy days ahead as 2 weather systems 'park' above Indianapolis: the latest forecast
Thunderstorms will roll through Indianapolis beginning in the evening of June 4, the National Weather Service predicts. Stormy weather is expected to stick around until at least the morning of June 7, when the sun will return for a calmer weekend. The dreary days ahead are thanks to the collision of two weather systems over the Midwest. A northern cold front will meet a southern warm front, fizzling out with a prolonged series of storms. "The front is going to just sit over our area for a few days, which is why we've got multiple days of rain and thunderstorms," NWS meteorologist Kacie Fuson said. While a few isolated storms might cause dangerous high winds through the end of this week, flooding from excessive rainfall is the primary concern, according to the NWS. There's a marginal possibility that the thunderstorms will be severe. The stormy days will follow a cluster of hot, sunny days made hazy by wildfire smoke drifting over from Canada. The sun is expected to return this weekend once the colliding fronts move out of the area. But don't break out your lawn chairs just yet: a separate weather system will bring another round of storms next week, Fuson said. 🌥️/ ⛈️ Wednesday: Warm and hazy during the day, with temperatures as high as 87 degrees. Winds between about 10 and 15 mph and gusts as high as 28 mph. Scattered storms will develop and then become widespread overnight. ⛈️ Wednesday night: Thunderstorms and showers likely before 2 a.m., with another possible thunderstorm after 4 a.m. The chance of precipitation is 60%. 🌧️/⛈️Thursday: Showers with a high of 79 degrees.

National Weather Service predicts strong storms, days of rain ahead of mild race weekend
Strong thunderstorms are expected to hit Indianapolis during the afternoon and evening of May 20. The possibility of a tornado "cannot be ruled out," according to the National Weather Service. Rain showers will be constant through the afternoon. Isolated storms are possible before then, but forecasters don't expect widespread storms until about 4 p.m. High winds are the most pressing threat. Winds within storms could reach up to 50 mph, and gusts throughout the day will be more moderate, about 20 to 25 mph. Flooding and hail are also possible. Storms will end around 2 a.m. on May 21. Rain will continue to fall all day May 21 and May 22, but storms aren't predicted. Forecasters are keeping an especially close eye on the flooding risk because of the steady rain, according to NWS meteorologist Earl Breon. Drivers should be mindful of flooding risk along their commutes. "It's not uncommon for one place to get lighter amounts of precipitation and a place next door to experience flash flooding in a situation like this," Breon said. The sun will come back out on May 23. Race weekend so far looks calm and temperate, with only a 30% chance of rain on May 25. 🚨 Indiana Weather Alerts: Warnings, Watches and Advisories. ⚡ Indiana power outage map: How to check your status. 💻 Internet outages: How to track them.
