Warmer Weather Prevails In State By United Press International Temperatures were due to drift upward perhaps as high as the 60s in southern parts of Indiana today in the warmest weather in nearly a month. Forecasts called for highs ranging from 52 to 62 in the southern third of the state this Afternoon, the low 50s in the central third and the 40s in the north. No such readings have been made in Hoosierland since the first week in December, just before a historic cold wave gave the state its coldest December ever and a stretch of nine consecutive below-zero days. Moderate temperatures featured Thursday’s weather with Evansville recording 56, Indianapolis 45, South Bend and Lafayette 42 and Fort Wayne 41. Overnight lows this morning were the warmest since November, including 44 at .Evansville, 42 at Indianapolis, 41 at Lafayette, 39 at South Bend and 36 at Fort Wayne. Lows tonight will’ range from' 22 to 32 as a little cooler weather develops, and highs Saturday will range from the upper 30s to the low 40s. Little change was expected Sunday. — The five-day outlook called for near normal temperatures through-next Wednesday in the north, averages 2 to 4 degrees above normal in the central and south portions! That would mean highs averaging from 28 to 47 and lows from 12 to 31. Thursday’s warming trend hastened the melting process for a blanket of old snow left over from December and a new fall of up to eight inches which came New Year’s Day over the south central portion of the state. Little or no precipitation was indicated for the next five days. If any comes, it probably will be a little rain or snow about Tuesday or Wednesday. .. ,**i_ * If you have something to sell oi trade — use the Democrat Want ads — they get BIG results
