TODAY: We have the chance for scattered showers and storms. Officially, most of the state is under a level 1 risk for severe weather with a level 2 risk for SE Indiana. Main impacts will be damaging wind potential and a chance for minor flooding. 0.5-2″ of rain is the expectation by the end of the day Sunday, but some could push higher than that, especially in northern Indiana, prompting the flooding risk. There is a low-end risk for a quick spin-up tornado. Highs today will only manage the mid-70s, but it will feel sticky with dew points in the mid-60s.
