INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. – A stretch of cooler, drier weather is setting up across central Indiana, giving drivers and families a break from summer heat. Sunday will bring sunshine and lighter winds, with highs topping out near 77 degrees across Marion County and surrounding areas.
According to the National Weather Service in Indianapolis, skies will clear overnight Saturday into Sunday morning, setting up a calm day with light west-northwest breezes. Commuters using I-70 and I-65 should find clear travel conditions Sunday and into the early workweek. Morning lows will fall into the upper 50s Sunday, with cooler nights ahead.
The shift comes after weeks of muggy air and unsettled skies, but the weather pattern will now favor more sunshine and refreshing temperatures. Monday will stay sunny with highs in the low 70s, but overnight lows will dip further, reaching near 52. By Tuesday morning, some areas around Hendricks and Hamilton counties could wake up to readings near 50.
Officials recommend taking advantage of the dry stretch to catch up on outdoor work, but cooler evenings mean light jackets may be necessary for evening events. Residents should also monitor updated forecasts as late August weather patterns can shift quickly.
This calm spell is expected to hold through midweek before temperatures climb again late week. More updates will follow if conditions change.
