Indiana – Light snow and freezing temperatures are expected across east-central Indiana Friday morning, potentially causing slick road conditions along I-70 and nearby highways. Motorists are urged to plan for reduced visibility and slippery surfaces during the morning commute.
According to the National Weather Service, snow is forecasted to begin around 4 a.m. and taper off by 2 p.m. Accumulations will average 1 inch, with isolated areas receiving up to 2 inches.
