A few storms possible Thursday afternoon
INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — A quick hitting cold front will bring storms later Thursday. Comfortable weather settles in for the end of the week before heat builds for next week.
Thursday:
Sunny start to the day, with comfortable temperatures. Humidity will be on the rise through the morning as a cold front slides in from the northwest. Expect our highs to be hit somewhere around Noon, topping out in the lower 80s.
