INDIANAPOLIS, IND. — After an active seven day stretch of showers and storms, a short but welcome dry period has presented itself across many parts of Indiana, Ohio, and Kentucky, with modeled rainfall totals through 8 p.m. Wednesday, June 24, showing most of the region staying completely dry and offering a prime window for outdoor activities, crop spraying, and yard work.
Seven Day Active Stretch Finally Gives Way to Dry Air
After relentless rounds of severe weather across the Ohio Valley and surrounding states over the past week, a short dry stretch has finally arrived. The break could not come at a better time for residents who have dealt with repeated rounds of damaging storms, heavy rain, and tornado threats across the region.
Indiana, Ohio, Kentucky Stay Dry Through Wednesday Evening
Modeled rainfall totals through 8 p.m. Wednesday show Indiana, Ohio, and Kentucky staying almost entirely dry, with the dashed dry zone encompassing Indianapolis, Cincinnati, Columbus, Louisville, Evansville, and Cleveland. Totals across this corridor are expected to remain well under a tenth of an inch through the Wednesday evening cutoff.
Heavier Rain Stays North and South of the Dry Zone
While the Ohio Valley corridor enjoys the dry stretch, heavier rainfall totals are expected to stay well north and south of the region. The Madison and Milwaukee corridor to the north is showing totals of 2 inches or more, while areas to the south and east including parts of the Appalachians and the Mid Atlantic are also seeing elevated totals outside the dry zone.
Perfect Window for Outdoor Work and Crop Spraying
Forecasters say this dry window is the perfect time for residents to cook out, get yard work done, or spray crops before the active pattern returns. With no significant rainfall expected across Indiana, Ohio, and Kentucky through Wednesday evening, outdoor plans across the region should proceed without weather related interruptions.
