INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — Temperatures rise this afternoon and so does the humidity. It gets really uncomfortable tomorrow with storm chances.

TONIGHT: A few isolated showers are possible in the southwestern part of the state overnight. Otherwise it stays mild and muggy. Lows fall into the upper 60s.

THURSDAY: Humidity really ramps up for Thursday. Oppressive humidity continues throughout the day and will be one of the main ingredients for thunderstorms. A cold front moves across the state sparking off showers and storms. Some of the thunderstorms may be on the stronger side. The Storm Prediction Center has most of the state under a slight risk. This means there is some confidence storms may be on the stronger side. Highs climb into the upper 80s near 90.
