Indianapolis On Wednesday afternoon and evening, ice accumulation is predicted to affect Indiana’s areas north and along the I-70 corridor, perhaps resulting in dangerous driving conditions.
Ice accumulations of 0.10 to 0.25 inches are anticipated from Rockville to Fishers to Winchester, continuing north and west to the Upper Wabash River, according to the National Weather Service Indianapolis. It is also predicted that Lafayette and the neighboring areas will see 1 to 3 inches of little snowfall.
Authorities caution that hazardous driving conditions and travel delays may result from icy roadways and slick weather. Untreated roads and bridges can become very dangerous, thus residents are reminded to exercise caution when using them.
The wintry mix occurs when temperatures are close to freezing, increasing the likelihood of ice development. For information on road conditions and possible closures, drivers should follow the Indiana Department of Transportation’s updates.
Authorities advise avoiding needless driving during high impact hours, packing emergency kits in cars, and providing extra time for travel in anticipation of icy conditions. By late Wednesday evening, the cold weather should be over.
