The flood watch has come to an end across the area, but well see ongoing river flood warnings for the next few days while we await the crests. This is especially true for rivers experiencing moderate to major flooding south of Interstate 70, including the Lower Wabash, the East Fork White and White Rivers.

A weak frontal boundary will move through central Indiana this afternoon. This will prompt a few more scattered rain showers and then drop temperatures into the 30s after steady temperatures in the low 40s most of the day. Any remnant moisture could mix with ice pellets or snowflakes before coming to an end around 10 p.m.
