Friday Morning Forecast Update: Indy 500

5/24/2019

Forecast is still looking very good for Carb Day as at the moment, all thunderstorm activity is staying north of the track. Latest high-resolution models keeps rain out of the area throughout the remainder of the day and through a good portion of Saturday, with storms possible during Saturday evening and through the late night hours. Today's high will top out around 86 degrees with winds out of the south to southwest at 5-10 MPH. Saturday's high will be around 87 degrees with winds out of the southwest at 8-16 MPH with gusts up to 25 MPH possible at times.

At this point, Sunday is looking a little better in the forecast department, but we'll continue to have a chance of showers and thunderstorms throughout the morning and early afternoon hours, around 30%. Those chances look to ramp up especially after 3:00 pm as a center of low pressure will be approaching from the west and moving into the western portions of Indiana. I've looked at several models and nearly all of them have Sunday morning staying relatively dry with rain moving in during the mid to late afternoon. It may be a race between the checkers and the storms, just like on last Sunday with the Fast Nine Shootout. There will be more clouds than sun and the high will be around 80 degrees. Winds will be out of the southwest at 5-10 MPH.
