Indianapolis, Indiana – Smoky skies will linger across Indiana through Tuesday as wildfire smoke continues to drift over the region, contributing to hazy conditions and reduced air clarity.
According to the National Weather Service in Indianapolis, air quality may be impacted, although no formal advisories have been issued. Temperatures will rise steadily, with Monday’s high reaching around 81°F and Tuesday peaking near 88°F. Overnight lows will remain mild, in the 50s and 60s.
Cities like Bloomington, Lafayette, and Muncie can expect similar conditions, with mostly clear skies and warm afternoons. While no storms or rain are in the forecast, visibility could be reduced at times, especially during sunrise and sunset. Sensitive groups should monitor local air quality levels and limit prolonged outdoor activity if needed.
Drivers are urged to use low beams in hazy conditions and remain alert for decreased visibility on highways such as I-65 and I-70. Residents may also want to keep windows closed to limit indoor smoke infiltration.
The warming trend continues through midweek, with another update expected Tuesday morning if smoke levels worsen.
