Issued at 1240 AM EDT Sun Apr 28 2024 We are beginning to see an increase in shower/storm coverage. At this time, much of the shower/storm activity is located along the US 30 corridor. Into the overnight hours, expect this activity to progress north with the help of the low level jet. Additional influx of moisture into the area with increased convergence may aid in an increase in chances of thunderstorms with some training of cells possible overnight, especially in northwest Indiana including KSBN. Once rain/storms exit (which should be before 12Z), expect VFR conditions to prevail alongside gusty winds up to 25-30 kts throughout the day Sunday. && .IWX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... IN...None.
