Jan. 2 | Evening Forecast with Chief Meteorologist Ashley Brown
INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — After a dry start to Thursday with some sunshine, we’re tracking some light snow accumulation Thursday night into early Friday.
Colder air will settle in and we’ll eventually deal with a strong weather system Sunday that brings significant snowfall and ice potential.
Thursday night: There is a lot of ongoing talk with Sunday’s system, but we got to focus on what’s in front of us first. Snow with some rain mixed in on the southern end moves through our state tonight into early Friday.
Areas along and north of interstate 74 look to get up to 0.5″-1″ of snow. Locally higher amounts up to 2″ cannot be ruled out.
Lows will fall into the low to mid 20s.
Friday: Be aware for slick spots on untreated roads through your Friday morning commute. We’re in for a bitterly cold day as a breezy northwesterly wind takes shape again and causes us to barely get into the mid 20s. Matter of fact, due to breezy winds that will gust up to 20-30 MPH at times, wind chill values will range from the teens to single digits.
