Today, Indiana will enjoy a brief reprieve from active weather, with dry conditions and sunshine dominating the day. After a bitterly cold start with temperatures near zero, highs will rebound into the 20s statewide, with some spots in southern Indiana reaching the low 30s. Light winds will shift to a southerly direction, helping to moderate temperatures slightly. However, freezing fog in south-central Indiana this morning could cause slick spots on untreated roads, so caution is advised if traveling. Tomorrow, a significant winter storm will move into the state, bringing widespread snow and hazardous travel conditions. Snowfall will begin early in the morning in western Indiana and spread eastward through the day. Central Indiana is expected to receive 2-4 inches of snow, with the heaviest amounts likely in southeastern areas. Northern Indiana will see 1-3 inches, with slightly higher totals near Lake Michigan due to lake enhancement. In southern Indiana and Kentucky, where a Winter Storm Warning is in effect, snowfall totals of 3-6 inches are expected, with locally higher amounts possible in far southern areas. The snow will taper off late Friday night, but not before causing significant disruptions to the Friday afternoon and evening commutes. This storm will feature light to moderate snow, occasionally heavy at times, especially in southern Indiana where moisture from the Gulf of Mexico will enhance snowfall rates. High snow-to-liquid ratios (12:1 to 16:1) mean that the snow will be fluffy but impactful. Plan for slippery roads and reduced visibility during the storm. Temperatures will hover in the upper 20s to near freezing tomorrow, dropping into the teens overnight. The weekend will bring quieter weather, though scattered snow flurries could linger in northern Indiana early Saturday. Temperatures will remain cold, with highs in the upper 20s to low 30s. Looking ahead to next week, a powerful Arctic front will plunge temperatures even further, with highs struggling to reach the teens by midweek and sub-zero wind chills expected. Bundle up and stay safe!
