Heat Breaks, Storms, and Relief Ahead | Indianapolis News

Central Indiana’s heatwave is finally breaking — after days in the 90s and a summer already ahead of schedule in scorching temps, relief is on the way. Thunderstorms Friday and Saturday will bring much-needed rain (possibly an inch in some spots), though with strong winds and heavy downpours. With only 5.5 inches of rain since June 1 — nearly two inches behind normal — this moisture is a welcome relief. But be mindful: wildfire smoke mixed with ozone has triggered an air quality alert, so limit outdoor time if you have breathing issues. Sunday looks perfect: sunshine, mid-80s temps, and low humidity — the most comfortable day of the weekend. Cooler, drier air sticks around through next week, though a brief warm-up and storms may hit Tuesday before things settle down again.
