INDIANAPOLIS — Most of central Indiana is under a high wind warning or a wind advisory for Thursday from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.
A strong storm system brings rain and the potential for damaging winds to central Indiana Wednesday night into Thursday. The heaviest rain will fall from about 8 p.m. Wednesday through 8 a.m. Thursday.
Rainfall potential is near an inch.
Gusty winds will be a potentially dangerous part of this storm system. Wind will be SW 30-40 mph all day Thursday. Wind gusts are forecast to be 50-60 mph.
These strong to severe gusts will be enough to bring some tree limbs down and cause some power outages. Stay weather aware, and be prepared for a very windy Thursday.
The other interesting part of this system will be in the temperature drop. We go from near 60 degrees at 8 a.m. into the 40s by noon.
The cooler change sticks around Friday and Saturday. A few rain and snow showers are possible Friday, and highs Saturday will only be in the upper 30s.
