Last month, rain drenched central Indiana with higher-than-average rainfall amounts, putting June 2021 onto the list of Indianapolis’ wettest recorded months since 1871.
Normal rainfall totals for central Indiana in June range between four and a half and six inches. However, some parts of Marion County observed six to nine inches, Monroe County over ten inches, and southeastern Owen County, with the greatest one-day total in the station’s 76-year record, of nearly 13 inches.
Scattered showers and possible thunderstorms are likely for the rest of this week and into next week. Showers are expected to retreat briefly early Friday morning and into the afternoon, but will roll in again Friday evening. Less than an inch is predicted through Friday night, although amounts could be higher in isolated thunderstorms.
Temperatures remain stable with highs in the mid 80s and lows in the 60s through Sunday.
