The snow storm that moved through northern and central Indiana deposited half a foot, or more, of “champaign powder” for the northern Indianapolis suburbs overnight into this morning with amounts tapering dramatically further south.
Left behind will be a day that will provide “decent” conditions for digging out. We’ll introduce sunshine and temperatures will be downright “balmy” when compared to what blows into town tonight. Though well below average, today’s high in the lower 20s will feel like a heat wave when we look ahead to the upcoming couple days.
Things begin to change in a big way tonight as arctic air invades. Additionally, winds will increase and lead to all sorts of blowing and drifting concerns. This dry/ powdery snow will be blown about quite easily and lead to reduced visibilities tonight and Wednesday along with significant drifting. Some additional light snow will accompany the initial arctic push tonight.
Note the temperature crash that’s coming:
Temperatures fall into the single digits by 10pm.
Wednesday morning lows.
Modeled forecast lows Thursday morning.
Officially we forecast the following:
* Wind chill values will fall to 25 to 30 degrees below zero Wednesday into Thursday morning.

Quick couple updates this evening:
Virtually all of today’s model data has jumped on a stronger storm system for the weekend as opposed to a flatter wave. This leads to a more northwest track and would imply more “wet than white” for local precipitation types for the weekend. One important difference between this upcoming event and those of recent past is that arctic air is now on the playing field and this can create all sorts of “havoc” in mid range modeling. We’ll keep a close eye on things.
The other HUGE item of business we want to get across is the prolonged and rather impressive cold pattern. A series of arctic highs will come down the Plains and spread southeast the upcoming 7-10 days. Despite a potential brief spike in temperatures Saturday, it’s a MUCH colder than normal pattern. Eventually, we’ll have to closely monitor the potential of a couple of snow-producing clipper systems. Sometimes these can be overachievers, depending on track and intensity and one of two clippers next week may be just that…
More later! Have a great evening!
