About this listen

 Good morning. Indiana. I'm Aaron Jolly. Step outside right now and you'll feel something that shouldn't exist in early March. We're sitting at 66 degrees under a gray blanket of clouds. That muggy air? It's about to get even warmer before everything flips. Indianapolis is gunning for a record today. We're forecast to hit 75 degrees — one degree above the 1909 record of 74. That's 22 degrees to 20 degrees warmer than normal for mid-March. Down in Evansville, you could touch 79 before the bottom drops out this afternoon. Up in Fort Wayne, expect 73. But here's the catch, a cold front is barreling in from the Great Lakes. And it's bringing the works. As the sun sets. Thunderstorms fire up late tonight — between 10 P.M. and 5 A.M. Statewide. Northern Indiana takes the biggest hit, with storms peaking around 2 A.M., while all severe hazards are on the table: tornadoes, large hail, damaging winds. Southern areas see a lower but still real threat, mainly after midnight. Heavy rain is a lock. Most of us pick up 1 to 22.5 inches, with locally higher amounts possible. That's on top of already saturated ground, flash flooding is possible. And ongoing river flooding south of I-70 will worsen. Wednesday morning, storms clear out. Then temperatures crash. Highs only reach the mid-60s before plunging to the low 30s by Thursday morning. That's a 40-degree temperature drop in 24 hours. The rest of the week? Thursday brings sunshine and highs near 50, friday warms back to the upper 50s. The weekend looks decent — mid-60s Saturday, low 60s Sunday — before another storm system arrives Sunday night. Rain transitions to snow late Sunday, with accumulations possible by Monday morning. As the sun sets. Charge your phones and secure anything outside before tonight. See you this afternoon.
