Northern Indiana – Northern Indiana remains under cold weather conditions as light snow showers are expected to persist into Thursday. Residents should plan for freezing temperatures and potentially hazardous travel conditions during their commutes.

According to the National Weather Service, temperatures will drop to 10-15 degrees above zero Tuesday night. Wind chill values are expected to make conditions feel even colder, with some areas dipping below zero. Snow showers will diminish in intensity Tuesday evening, but the bitter cold will linger.

Wednesday brings slight relief with daytime highs in the upper teens to around 20 degrees. Skies will begin to clear, but light snow remains a possibility later in the evening. These conditions may make roadways slick, especially on untreated surfaces.

Travel disruptions, particularly during the morning commute, are possible. High temperatures will reach the low 30s, providing brief respite from the arctic chill.
