A warm Saturday is on tap for central Indiana, with a slight risk of severe storms developing later in the day due to the heat and humidity. Forecasters indicate a partly cloudy day, with temperatures peaking in the low 90s. The National Weather Service has classified the risk of severe weather as a 2 out of 5, particularly affecting areas along and east of Interstate 69. Scattered showers and thunderstorms are anticipated between 2 PM and 8 PM, with damaging winds being the primary concern.
As the day transitions into night, rain is expected to dissipate, leading to partly cloudy skies and lower temperatures in the low 70s. For Sunday, a mix of sun and clouds will dominate, with isolated pop-up storms possible in the afternoon. Highs will be slightly cooler, settling in the mid-80s.
