This was just a TERRIBLE Severe weather outbreak as you all can tell!! This is sad that is for sure. Please everybody do say a prayer for these people and all the animals.. We all knew after looking at the maps yesterday that there was a Good chance for a severe weather outbreak in these areas and you can see when mother nature wants to unleashes her strength we better just back up! because we are no match for what we seen above and or for what she can do!!

---------------------------------------------------

Now I don't think we will have to worry about any severe weather this weekend which is great news with the Time trials in Indy being today and Mothers Day tomorrow! Did you all do something nice for Mom?? :) Well, there is still time to think of something! While you think take a look at your weekend outlook below.....What a (Beautiful) weekend it is looking like! Partly cloudy skies and highs in the upper 60s and 70s! Now we will have to watch out for a "few" breezy winds today as we head out! Yes, you can see I'M calling for winds gusting today from 25 to 30 mph at times. Really not to bad but still breezy! And then mothers day is also looking good with much calmer winds between 10 and 15 mph and more mostly cloudy to Partly cloudy skies with highs in the middle to upper 60s. I think we will hold off our next chance for some thunderstorms until next Wednesday into Thursday. But that is still aways out so I will have more updates on that as it gets closer! You can count on that!

I wish you all a WONDERFUL weekend and a very HAPPY Mothers Day! I will be down at the "Indianapolis motor speed way" today with a few other people and I will try to bring back some pictures for you all. I will catch up with you all here on the Indiana Weather Blog again Monday! See you then!! ;) And Thank You For Reading! ;)
