Expect rain chances to continue through at least late tonight and gradually wind down, moving to the south and east of Central Indiana overnight.

Rainfall amounts should be around half an inch in many locations across central Indiana.

Meanwhile, overnight low temperatures will slip into the mid-50s.

Thursday looks equally as nice with sunny skies and high into the low to mid-60s.

Temperatures hold steady as we gear up for the weekend. A couple of disturbances moving in for both Saturday and Sunday could bring a chance of showers and thunderstorms on both days with highs into the mid-60s. We also have some rain chances continuing for Veterans Day next Monday, but temperatures look to remain well above average for this time of year.
