SUMMER HAS STARTED?

We are barely two days into the start of summer and what a cool off in central Indiana. For the second time in under a week, very mild air returns and this brand of cool is even cooler than the last!

The heat index surged to 100 Friday afternoon after most of last week remained mild but behind a few cold fronts, low temperatures fell Tuesday morning to the upper 40s in many outlying locations. Some of the coolest lows included 48 at Tipton, New Castle, Crawfordsville and Zionsville with the coolest locations 47 Marion (Grant county) and 46 in Frankfort (Clinton county).

The low of 53 in Indianapolis is the coolest this month and the normal low for September 26th. Despite the summer sunshine, Tuesdays refreshingly mild high of 71 was the coolest for this date since 1992 a very important date in June records for Indianapolis.

Twenty-nine years ago, the ALL-TIME record low for the month of June was set at 37! Frost was wide-spread that morning in outlying areas!
