Indianapolis, Indiana – Thickening clouds and muggy air signal a stormy stretch ahead for Indiana, as a humid thunderstorm pattern develops late Thursday night and intensifies Friday into the weekend.
According to the National Weather Service in Indianapolis, isolated showers and thunderstorms may form after midnight Thursday, expanding in coverage Friday with highs in the low 80s. Rainfall rates may intensify by Saturday, with multiple rounds of storms expected, some capable of producing heavy downpours and localized flooding—especially in low-lying or poor-drainage areas.
Cities including Bloomington, Muncie, and Terre Haute should prepare for wet commutes Friday morning and potential water accumulation on roads. Outdoor events may be disrupted, and residents are advised to monitor weather alerts and have backup plans. Light southerly winds will maintain high humidity levels, adding to discomfort and instability across the region.
Drivers should watch for slick roads and ponding water, particularly near I-70 and I-65 corridors. Charge mobile devices in advance and secure outdoor furniture, as gusty winds may accompany stronger cells.
The unsettled pattern may persist into early next week, with updated advisories possible.
