Northern Indiana – A white Thanksgiving could be on the horizon for northern Indiana as snow showers and freezing temperatures settle in this week. Travelers planning holiday trips should prepare for hazardous road conditions and plummeting temperatures.
The National Weather Service forecasts mild weather on Monday, with highs reaching 55 degrees and rain likely in the afternoon and evening. But a sharp cold front will push into the region late Monday night, dropping temperatures into the low 30s by Tuesday morning.
Tuesday marks the start of a significant cooldown, with highs hovering in the upper 30s and gusty winds making it feel even colder. By Wednesday, snow showers are expected, especially in northern counties near the Michigan border. Roads, including I-80 and I-69, could become slick as snow accumulates and temperatures drop further overnight into the 20s.
Thanksgiving Day is likely to remain cold, with highs in the mid-30s and lingering chances of snow flurries. Travelers should bundle up and plan for delays, particularly in areas where snow could reduce visibility. By Friday, even colder air arrives, with lows nearing the teens and more snow possible.
Motorists across Indiana and Michigan should remain vigilant throughout the week, especially when traveling major roadways like US-30 and I-94. Snowy and icy conditions may persist, impacting post-holiday plans as well.
