INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — Cloudy and cool today but sunny skies and warmer temperatures return for the weekend. A few areas of spotty showers today especially early in the morning. Clouds stick around for much of the day. A few spotty sprinkles are possible today.

TODAY: Lots of clouds through the day. It’s going to be a bit breezy with winds out of the north and northwest at 10-15 miles per hour. Gusts may reach 20 miles per hour. We’ll see a few early morning showers. The steady and organized rain quickly moves off to the east by midday. Clouds hang around and we may even see a few spotty light sprinkles but the measurable rain comes to an end. The latest drought monitor does have a few areas seeing improvements.

Eventually the cloudy and cool weather slowly exits the state. We may squeak out a little sunshine before it sets today. Highs will be on the cooler side. Readings will only climb into the upper 50s later today.

TONIGHT: It looks dry for The Zone football games! Definitely going to feel like football weather with temperatures in the middle 50s at kickoff. Skies clear overnight and lows fall into the 40s.
