Indianapolis, IN – A rain-to-snow mix is set to affect areas north of I-70 starting tonight, according to the National Weather Service. The transition is expected around 8 p.m. between Lafayette and Muncie, with a gradual southward movement overnight.
The NWS indicates total snow accumulation will remain below an inch, but heavier snow bands could significantly reduce visibility. Snow will primarily collect on grassy or elevated surfaces, with minimal impact on major roadways. The system is forecast to end by Thursday morning.
Localized weather reports warn drivers to prepare for low visibility and slick conditions during the transition. After precipitation clears, temperatures are expected to drop, with single-digit wind chills anticipated by the weekend.
Residents in affected areas should monitor weather updates and exercise caution during evening and overnight travel. The NWS recommends allowing extra time for commutes and avoiding unnecessary travel if visibility becomes compromised.
Stay tuned for the latest weather updates as this system progresses.
