  • HEAT & HUMIDITY CONTINUE
  • DAILY AFTERNOON DOWNPOURS
  • COOLER & LESS HUMID NEXT WEEK

Thursday was the sixth day in a row of 90°F temperatures in Indianapolis. When we reach 90°F on Friday, it will only be the fourth time in nine years that the city has experienced consecutive 90°F days. The point is that while we encounter this heat almost every summer, this has been a prolonged period that we aren't used to seeing all that often.

Heat index values will once again be right around 100° for most with some areas a little higher than that.

The Heat Advisory will remain in effect through Friday at 8 PM. After that, the weather service will decide whether to extend it or not.

Temperatures will stay around 90°F over the weekend, but the humidity will be slightly lower, so we might not meet the criteria. Either way, it will still be hot this weekend, but relief comes next week. As you can see in the 7-Day Planning Forecast below, next week will be more seasonal, with temperatures in the mid-80s and lower humidity.
