After an early morning downpour across portions of Elkhart County, the weather was noticeably calmer Wednesday evening.
However, the quiet conditions might not remain in place much longer, as another round of active weather is possible next week.
It's already been a very active year for severe weather, with almost 50 combined tornado and severe thunderstorm warnings issued for Michiana as of July 24. There have been four confirmed tornadoes (two in southwest Michigan, two in northern Indiana) in the same timeframe.
A weather pattern conducive to severe weather could set up once again across the Upper Midwest starting on Sunday. As another heat down settles into the southwest United States, storm clusters could form in "northwest flow" and might impact Michiana early next week.
While it's still too early to pin down specifics, we will likely see humidity surge and rain chances increase to end July.
