Indianapolis, IN – Central Indiana is in for a gray and soggy Christmas Day as rain and patchy fog dominate the region. Travelers should prepare for potentially slick roads, with rainfall totals reaching 0.25 inches by this afternoon. Temperatures will stay mild, hovering in the mid-40s, far from the freezing conditions typically associated with a white Christmas.
According to the National Weather Service, today’s rain will persist into Wednesday evening, with patchy fog reducing visibility in some areas. Drivers are urged to exercise caution, especially on untreated roadways or during low-light conditions. Winds will remain light, though areas of localized flooding in low-lying spots are possible.
Looking ahead, Thursday will see mostly cloudy skies with highs near 51°F, providing brief relief from the rainfall. However, the region isn’t out of the woods yet. Showers will return Friday and persist through the weekend, with temperatures climbing into the low 60s.
For post-holiday travelers, Saturday brings the highest potential for storms, accompanied by gusty winds reaching 20 mph. Rain will taper off by Sunday, though a lingering 20% chance of showers remains in the forecast.
Residents are advised to monitor updates from local weather services and check road conditions before traveling. Those heading outdoors should pack rain gear and allow extra time for their commutes.
Stay safe, Indiana, and plan accordingly as wet weather extends into the weekend.
