INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. – Drivers across central Indiana could face patchy fog this morning, especially along I-70 and I-65, before clearer skies take over. Low visibility in rural areas may cause slowdowns, making caution a must for the early commute.
According to the National Weather Service in Indianapolis, skies will turn sunny today with a high near 85 degrees. Calm winds and dry air dominate the forecast, but fog pockets will remain possible in valleys and low-lying areas through mid-morning.
Sunday will bring more sunshine with highs near 87, keeping roads dry but adding warmth for late-September. Temperatures climb slightly higher Monday, topping out near 88, before shifting cooler midweek as October begins. By Wednesday, highs will ease back into the low 80s with northeast breezes signaling a seasonal transition.
For residents planning outdoor events, conditions remain favorable through Tuesday with mostly clear skies and light winds. The main hazard remains early-day fog, which could impact school buses and morning traffic in counties surrounding Marion, Boone, and Hendricks.
Officials urge drivers to slow down, keep headlights on, and allow extra travel time when moving through fog-prone stretches. The good news: no severe weather threats are expected through the first days of October.
Expect updates from the National Weather Service if conditions shift, especially with cooler air advancing midweek.
