Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Northern Indiana
1126 AM EST Sat Dec 27 2025

.KEY MESSAGES...

- Unseasonably mild Sunday with highs around 60 to 65.

- SPC has a marginal risk for severe thunderstorms Sunday south
  of the toll road.

- Turning sharply colder Sunday night with a flash freeze with
  lows near 20.

- Very cold Monday through Saturday with highs mainly in the
  20s. Wind chill temperatures will frequently range from 10
  below zero to 10 above.

&&

.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 357 AM EST Sat Dec 27 2025

A very active pattern is ahead through early next week. This
pattern includes a wide variety of weather composed of a chance
for strong to possibly severe storms with isolated tornados
Sunday, a flash freeze early Monday, and very cold temperatures
accompanied by wind chills through the week to end the year
2025 and to begin 2026. Very moist air will stream northeast
into the forecast area this weekend. Precipitable water values
will approach 1.50 inches which is around a inch above normals.
High shear/low topped convection is expected Sunday. Storms will
be capable of marginally severe gusty winds to 50 mph and
locally heavy rainfall. Rainfall amounts by Monday evening
should be around an inch. Antecedently dry conditions do not
favor flooding. Grounds may still remain at least partially
frozen due to the recent anomalously cold weather the past few
weeks. Some minor ponding of water is likely where rainfall
amounts are higher.

The cold front is expected to reach the area around midnight
Sunday night and race east. Strong gusty winds will be
associated with the passage of the front and behind the front.
Flash freeze conditions are likely by early Monday as the
interval between when the rain ends and when the temperatures
fall below freezing will be small. Monday will be a very
blustery day with wind gusts approaching 50 mph and wind chills
around zero. Current thinking is that cold weather headlines
will not be needed, but the cold weather will be highlighted in
the Hazardous Weather Outlook product and social media products.
Temperatures should remain below freezing the rest of the week.
