STATEWIDE–Most places in Indiana will get high temperatures in the 80s, a slight increase in humidity, with a chance for rain during the Labor Day weekend.

“We’re going to have highs in the middle to upper 80s all weekend,” said Chad Swain, meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Indianapolis.

Swain says most places have between a 20 and 40% chance for rain this weekend.

“The system that’s bringing the rain doesn’t look to be very strong. It doesn’t look like anything more than scattered showers or thunderstorms at this point,” said Swain.

He thinks the warmest day of the week could be Saturday.

“On that day, it could be near 90. It might be slightly warmer Sunday, but still pretty warm, though,” said Swain.

There will also be a slight increase in humidity during the weekend, but Swain says it will be nothing like the heat and humidity that impacted Indiana during June and July.
