Indianapolis, Indiana – Rain-soaked afternoons are expected across Indiana through Sunday as storms bring the risk of isolated flooding and damaging winds, particularly during peak heating hours.
According to the National Weather Service in Indianapolis, scattered storms will develop daily through July 27, with the highest probability between noon and 6 p.m. Rain chances hover between 45% and 65% in cities like Lafayette, Kokomo, and Terre Haute. Indianapolis itself will see a 60% chance of precipitation Saturday afternoon, tapering slightly to 45% by Sunday.
Brief but intense downpours could overwhelm drains and low-lying roads, particularly in urban areas, increasing the potential for localized flooding. Stronger storm cells may also produce gusty winds, especially in southern regions like Seymour and Vincennes.
Drivers are urged to avoid water-covered roads and monitor changing conditions. Outdoor plans should include shelter options, especially during peak storm times. While no widespread severe weather is expected, the isolated nature of strong storms makes vigilance essential.
Rain chances gradually decrease Sunday evening, but additional advisories remain possible depending on storm development.
