INDIANAPOLIS, IN – A cool, gray morning settled over central Indiana Saturday, the kind of calm that feels like a seasonal pause before the next turn. After a cloudy start to the weekend, brighter skies are on the way — though a few early-week rain chances could quickly shift the mood as Halloween week begins.
According to the National Weather Service in Indianapolis, clouds will linger through Saturday with highs near 59°F. Winds stay light from the east, keeping the day cool but steady. Sunday brings a burst of late-fall sunshine and highs around 63°F — a perfect window for outdoor plans, leaf cleanup, or early trick-or-treat decorating before changes arrive Monday night.
By Monday afternoon, skies cloud up again as moisture builds across southern Indiana. A 30% chance of light rain begins late Monday night, increasing to around 40% Tuesday as scattered showers spread across the metro. Gusts up to 20 mph may accompany the front, making for a breezy and damp Tuesday morning commute.
Rain chances persist through Wednesday before clearing Thursday, when colder, drier air will slip in from the northwest. That cooler push could bring the first hint of frost to rural counties by midweek, signaling November’s arrival just ahead of Halloween festivities.
For now, enjoy Sunday’s sunshine — the kind that makes Indiana’s maple-lined streets glow. After all, a chilly November lies ahead, and this may be the last warm stretch before it settles in.
