Rain chances return Tuesday afternoon
INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — Rainfall amounts should remain below 0.5″.
This morning:
Temperatures are not quite as cold this morning, thanks to a lot of cloud cover. We’re keeping an eye out on a cold front that’s progressing just to our west, providing some showers along the Mississippi River.

Tuesday:
The cold front will move through the Midwest as we progress into the afternoon hours. There’s a lot of dry air over central Indiana as of right now, so much of the morning and early afternoon should stay dry. Better forcing should force out some light to moderate showers across the area by mid-to-late afternoon. A few rumbles of thunder could be possible, but they will likely not be widespread. Total rainfall for the event should be less than 1/2 an inch across central Indiana.
