Fall Back
Posted ByI am ready to “fall back!” An extra hour of sleep? Bring it on!
Before you turn in this evening, remember to turn back your clock one hour!
Are you going to sleep an extra hour? Stay at a Halloween party a little longer? One thing you should plan to do, change all the batteries in your smoke detectors!
Happy Halloween!
Posted ByIsolated morning sprinkles are possible across Central Indiana this morning, but most spots look to stay dry. A perfect forecast for Halloween! A mix of sun and clouds is expected by this afternoon with highs only reaching about 50 degrees. It’s going to be breezy, with wind gusts up to 25mph, so bundle up if you’re visiting the pumpkin patch today.
By tonight, the winds should relax, and between 6pm and 8pm temperatures will fall to the mid to upper 40s. Trick or treating times will be dry, but a sweatshirt might be needed under costumes. Don’t forget to “fall back” one hour when you hit the sack tonight. Daylight Saving Time comes to an end early Sunday morning.
Sunday, more sunshine is on tap, and highs will reach the mid 50s. If you’re tailgating before the Colts game, you’ll be facing a cold start in the 30!
Radar Glowing Green
Posted ByI wish this was a Halloween trick, but unfortunately, the rest of our Friday afternoon looks rather soggy. Rain showers have moved in and are here to stay past midnight. For the most part rain will be light, but a few more moderate showers are possible. Winds will stay pretty stiff out there, gusting up to 35mph. So, if you’re heading out to any Operation Football games, prepare the rain gear and bundle up!
You can keep up to date on the rain by using our interactive radar to zoom into your neighborhood.
By late Halloween morning the rain should mostly be gone. We may have a few stray sprinkles that stick with us for the day, but most spots will remain mainly dry. Highs Saturday will only reach the mid 50s. For trick or treat-ing temps will be around 50 degrees with mainly dry conditions.
Sunday, we’ll see more sunshine as high reach the mid 50s. Tailgating for the Colts game should be fine! (A little chilly, but at least we’re not talking snow!)
Trick or Treat Forecast
Posted ByThe rain looks to clear out Saturday morning, giving us a breezy day with highs only in the mid 50s. There’s a 20% chance for isolated sprinkles.
Trick or treaters should have cool, but mainly dry weather as they head into neighborhoods. Temperatures Saturday evening for candy galore will be between 48 and 52 degrees.
