Windy with storm chances later this afternoon

Marcus’ 4 a.m. Tuesday forecast

Wind gusts could reach up to 50 mph today

Tuesday:

The wind advisory remains in effect until 6:00 PM Tuesday.

 As As a cold front moves through later this afternoon we expect a few isolated showers and thunderstorms to develop. There is enough spin in the atmosphere that there is the possibility of a quick spin-up of a tornado. The higher-end severe threat would likely be a damaging wind threat, especially in northeastern Indiana.

Meanwhile, wind gusts could reach up to 50 mph at times throughout the day.

Highs top out in the lower 60s by early afternoon but will quickly fall into the 50s after the cold front passes by later in the day.

Tuesday night:

Some areas of drizzle are possible later tonight otherwise we’ll quiet things down with lighter winds and colder temperatures. Lows dip down into the mid and upper 30s.
