Colder air will start to move in through the day today and will continue to be cold into next week.
There will be chances for drizzle and flurries late today into tomorrow with a few snow showers possible.
The best chances for precipitation will be across north-central Indiana. Little to no accumulation is expected.
Arctic air is likely to move into central Indiana late next week, including near Christmas. This would bring the potential for single-digit air temperatures and sub-zero wind chills.
Below-normal precipitation is favored, but some snow is possible as the coldest air moves in.
Follow future forecasts for updates on the cold potential.
