Indianapolis, IN – Snow is surging northeast and east across Indiana this afternoon, bringing light but accumulating snowfall and reduced visibility for drivers. The National Weather Service (NWS) in Indianapolis reports visibility has dropped to as low as one-quarter mile in parts of southwest Indiana as the snow band advances.

According to the NWS, radar at approximately 4:15 p.m. EST showed snow southwest of a line stretching from Terre Haute to Bloomington and moving toward Indianapolis and Muncie. While accumulations are generally light, cold air is firmly in place—making road and sidewalk treatments less effective and allowing snow to stick quickly.

Travelers should expect slick roadways, especially untreated side streets, bridges, and overpasses. The weather service warns that even a small amount of snow can create hazardous travel conditions during the evening commute.

Light flurries are expected to continue northeast through early evening before tapering off overnight. Drivers are urged to slow down, increase following distance, and use caution as conditions may vary across the region.
