INDIANAPOLIS — A line of strong to severe storms is moving across Central Indiana this afternoon into this evening. A Severe T'storm WATCH has been issued for northern locations until 9pm. This includes Monticello, Logansport, Peru, Marion, IN and Hartford City.

The primary threat from storms will be wind gusts between 40 and 70 mph. There is a Marginal Risk of severe weather (Level 1 of 5) covering much of Central Indiana through this evening. Storms could also produce heavy rainfall with localized flooding.

Our heat wave continues into this evening. With the humidity, it will feel like 100° at times. If you are heading out to the Marion County Fair, here is what to expect.

The weekend will be a bit more manageable as far as heat. Afternoon thermometers will hit the mid 80s, which is closer to average for this time of the year. Both days will feature a storm and shower chance with Saturday's greater potential south of the metro and Sunday's chance lining up in the evening.

Next week looks much better temperature wise. There will be some showers to dodge Monday, but highs falling into the mid 80s will be much better!
