Happy Saturday, Hoosiers, and welcome to Virgo Season!
(Consider it your sign to organize your closet, get your life together, and maybe alphabetize your wine rack while you’re at it.)

No severe weather. No drama. No heat advisories.

BUT - because Mother Nature always has a but - lake effect has officially re-entered the chat.

Now before you clutch your pearls, relax. No snow (at least not yet, anyway.) Instead, it'll be lake effect RAIN giving northern Indiana a little "preview party" before winter struts in. Some of you may see it as a threatening war dance, but we're going to try to be positive and thankful for the rain and not think about snow at the moment, mkay?

Besides... Highs will only flirt with the upper 70s today before sliding down into the upper 50s tonight - picture perfect “shut the AC off and crack a window” weather. Tomorrow? Hoodie season officially dry launches, with highs struggling into the mid-to-upper 60s. Yes, you read that right. Sixties. Even better yet? Your bank account will stop trying to have you tried for war crimes because your electric bill will be waaaaay more civilized. For now.

Meanwhile, central and southern Indiana are just… Doing their thing. A few clouds here, a little less there, and highs in the 80s. It's basically a decent day to live your best life. Evansville, specifically... You’re looking suspiciously good today. We don’t trust it. What’s your angle, Evansville?

So, lean into this glorious Fall preview and enjoy this well-earned breather from brutal heat, because word on the street is summer’s grip is loosening. Will September sneak some heat back? Possibly. But right now? We’re vibing with pumpkin-scented candles, the promise of apple cider and spiced teas, and glorious hoodie snuggles.

Speaking of which… We wanna know what your weekend plans are or if you have a go-to hoodie? Or maybe you've spotted a dangerously tempting one in a store lately! Drop a pic, share with the class, and let’s make this weekend officially cozy.

Oh... And before we sign off... We're going to have a quick fourth-wall break because credit is due where credit is due. I want to take the time to send a massive thank you to Nathan Lorenzen, ISC's VP, for stepping up as our word-maven-in-residence while I took a short hiatus to grieve the loss of my best friend. Horse girls are a different breed, and this wasn't any ordinary horse... He was my touch stone and my true north for nearly 10 years. But, as Freddie Mercury once sang, the show must go on and while things could have spiraled, Nathan was quick to step in. His hard work and dedication kept this little circus running, and he deserves a standing ovation (and probably a parade with confetti cannons). So please join me in giving Nathan some much deserved love. He's more than earned it. - T

Rest in peace, Monster Magnet (aka "Vlad")

Darlings, tonight, the universe is serving dark, sexy, and mysterious in all the best ways. We’re talking one of the darkest nights of the year, just perfectly tailor-made for stargazing and pretending you’re the main character in a cosmic rom-com, and the best part? The majority of us SHOULD be cloud free, and temperatures will be hoodie and blanket ready instead of sweaty and miserable if you live in northern Indiana where overnight lows will be in the low 50s. Everywhere else will be in the still nice low 60s to semi-tropical upper 60s (Thanks, Evansville), which still won't feel too terrible.

Let's talk nerdy for a second (we know you love it)

The Moon is pulling a Houdini with a seasonal Black Moon. Why "black moon"? Simple. Its unlit side is facing us, leaving the sky darker than your ex’s soul. This rare trick only happens every 33 months, making it a very interesting and awaited night for stargazers and space lovers across the globe. Add in the last fiery stragglers of the Perseid meteor shower, and you’ve got perfectly dark skies with streaks of comet confetti blazing across the heavens at 37 miles per second. Absolutely marvelous, no?

Best views?
- Midnight to dawn with peak drama between 3–5 a.m. (your insomnia finally pays off).
- No telescope required. Just ditch city lights as best you can, let your eyes adjust, and soak up the Milky Way in all its glory.
- Bring bug spray. The Mosquito Cartel is still on the loose, and they don't take prisoners (and don't forget to spray your backside. That's a pro-tip based on hard learned lessons. CYA, babes, CYA.)

So, remember to prioritize safety and make sure someone knows where you'll be, grab a blanket, grab your bestie (or your favorite snack (wink wink)), and look up. The cosmos is putting on a show, and you do not want to ghost it.

Good morning, cornheads!

Today's weather is, you guessed it, basically the same as yesterday! It's a battle of "is it summer? Fall?" because we all feel trapped in the twilight zone of temperatures. One day it's hot, the next is cold! But there is one thing we can promise, and that is a big relief is still on track for the beginning of next week. If you cant tell, we are as excited as you are! We would like to tell you that it will last for the rest of the year, but we all know that predicting weather more than a week in advance is like walking on the side of the street when there is a sidewalk 4 feet away. Wrong. (please use the sidewalk, folks! It's much safer!)

One thing to note, though, as we approach the fall season, our second "severe weather season" is fast approaching, where the jet stream begins to do the big wave, throwing a stone in the calm waters of summertime. So keep that in mind!

Otherwise, everybody enjoy the much more seasonable weather to come!

Good Friday eve, Indiana!

Yes, the cooler air is here to stay just a little while longer, but we won't see those face melting temperatures for the foreseeable future for now. The name of the game today is "temperature tease 101" where mother nature cools it off, but the air still feels like the sauna at your local fitness center. But, we will take what we can get at this time!

There will only be a small threat of an isolated sprinkle through the morning hours, as most of the day should remain dry, with temperatures rising only slightly.

Everybody's day should be welcomed by our first little break from the heat this morning! Most of the state is currently sitting at a more comfortable 70 degrees! We should only warm up for a short while before the big advertised cool down coming sunday!

Don't forget to check out our Discord server everybody! We strive to build a strong, educated community around severe weather preparedness, including a lot of great channels for y'all to chat about some awesome weather that you have seen! Samantha Lloyd and Aaron Lyfe have put their blood, sweat and tears into creating this incredible channel, so show them some love when y'all get there!

Eventually, we would love to have some sort of online gaming events, including games like Outbrk (which we totally aren't trying to get a couple of our chase vehicles to get put in the game, but that ship hasn't quite sailed as of yet..) to help with education about severe weather, all while having a total blast chasing virtual tornadoes!

So check us out over at our Discord, tell all of your friends, so we can help as many people become weather ready, so you know what to look for when the time comes to act!

Good tuesday morning, hoosiers! Yes, it may be a bit wet when this forecast posts, but don't worry, it won't last long! Today's severe weather risk for storms is currently at a 1/5 when we were writing up this post, but if anything changes from then until now, we will keep you covered!

The general idea is a decaying complex of storms moving in from the west in the morning should decay as it enters the state, before Mr. Sun decides to broast us on 475° for 3 1/2 hours, or until golden brown after the rain lets up. After that, a few storms could let out a sonorous war cry during the mid to late afternoon hours, desperate for attention and validation along a cold front sagging in from the north west. But, things shouldn't get too bad, with only a low chance of a damaging blast of wind to cool us down for about 10 minutes, or to knock down one of those 12 foot skeletons everybody set up for halloween 2 years ago, and haven't gotten around to taking down.

So stay weather aware tomorrow, heed any warnings issued for your area,
and as always, Stay Aware. Stay Safe. And Don't Get Twisted.

Storms in Illinois continue to throw a temper tantrum, being driven by the very cold pools they produce. If they can hold together, we may still have a chance at some zappers later this evening, mainly in the northern half of the state. Visible satellite imagery shows what is known as overshooting tops poking into the lower stratosphere and spreading out to form the anvils of the thunderstorm, meaning the updrafts within the storm are very angy. Trends will be monitored, but don't expect anything too wild...
