Good evening, The latest on the forecast overnight and for the race tomorrow is in. Right now I anticipate us to stay dry until ~5/6am Saturday morning. Some encouraging trends in the afternoon data is trying to keep the bulk of the rain just west of the city as seen in the forecast model loop below from 6am-12pm. While it looks like heavy rain its really not as the latest trends keep the heaviest rain literally just west of Indy. With that being said we still anticipate scattered showers to impact us early morning.
Total rainfall can be seen below. Up to 0.30″ water in the heaviest bands a few counties west of Indy. Lets hope this trend continues in the morning. Ill update again later tonight with something brief. I will say a few other models coming in this afternoon also suggest “heaviest rain” is west of Indy.
Here is the latest hour by hour forecast from 5pm today to 4pm tomorrow.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Respectfully,
Michael Clark
