Today...
The storm prediction center has most of the area west of interstate 65 under a slight risk of severe storms later today into this evening. This will be something we will have to watch throughout the day. High temperatures today will top out in the low to mid seventies for most areas. Tonight low temperatures will stay in the mid fifties due to cloud cover.

Wednesday-Friday...
Things will begin to clear out on Wednesday, however, temperatures will remain quite cool with most areas staying in the upper sixties. Lows on wednesday drop back into the fourties. Thursday will bring a nice rebound in temperatures as they soar to near eighty. Lows on thursday will also stay in the mid sixties. The rain and storms return in time for Friday however as temperatures continue to remain warm.

Saturday-Monday...
The weekend should stay mostly dry with highs in the sixties and lows in the fourties. A few showers look to move through on Columbus Day. Temperatures into next week will be quite tricky. As we get closer to that time frame, we will have a better idea of what to expect, but some modeling is showing the first real potential frost/freeze situation. This will be something to watch carefully as the growing season may soon be coming to an end a little early this year.
