Warm-up begins, tracking a strong storm chance late Tuesday
INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — Central Indiana goes right back into a warm stretch. However, there is a strong storm chance late Tuesday into Tuesday night.
TODAY: Most of us are waking up in the 20s. A stiff south wind will gust up to 25 mph at times. High temperatures climb into the upper 50s under mostly sunny skies today.
TONIGHT: Mostly clear skies remain in place. Low temperatures near 40 degrees.
TOMORROW: Sunny skies remain. Many locations in central Indiana could be challenging record highs (Indy record high of 68 degrees). High temperatures in the upper 60s.
8-DAY FORECAST: Tuesday into Tuesday night we are under a slight (2/5) risk of severe weather from the Storm Prediction Center. There is still a lot to determine with this system, but what we do know is rain and windy conditions will be likely late Tuesday into Wednesday. The question is if the severe risk will pan out.
Storms are expected to initiate in Illinois and try and transition into Indiana. Some instability and wind shear will be present. Lack of moisture may be a limiting factor. Stay with us on this forecast!
Temperatures will dive throughout Wednesday behind this strong system. On Thursday, highs will be in the low 40s before a steady temperature climb into the weekend.

New bridge over 96th Street adds to Nickel Plate Trail connections
FISHERS, Ind. (WISH) — The Nickel Plate Trail pedestrian bridge over 96th Street is officially open.
It was being touted Friday as a major milestone for central Indiana’s growing trail system. The street is the Fishers-Indianapolis border.
Leaders called the project a critical connection point for the Nickel Plate Trail. The new bridge helps move the nearly 17-mile trail closer to its goal of connecting multiple counties through one continuous path.
The bridge also came with a 1.3-mile trail extension. A $4.5 million grant from the Indiana Department of Natural Resources made the bridge possible.
Dale Brier, deputy director of Indiana Department of Natural Resources, talked about the state’s Next Level Trails grant program. “Currently, we have 89 trail projects that that were funded with that money. Fifty-nine of those are complete. We’ve got 12 under construction. As of this opening, we have 167 miles of trail that have now been opened with that grant money.”
People who frequently take the trail for their daily exercises say they’re excited the bridge is finally open.
Alan Errichiello of the Fishers Running Club said, “Extending this down south into Indianapolis is a big game changer for us. It’ll add a lot of miles that we can easily get into.”
Resident Tracy Mundell said, “Trying to get to the other side was nearly impossible, so I think most people didn’t even attempt it. It’s going to be great, we can get over to the other side, and I’m anxious to see what’s over there.”
The final portion of the project, called the Clear Path project, remains under construction.
Fishers Mayor Scott Fadness, a Republican, said, “We need to double-down on that investment, and we know time and time again here in the city of Fishers that trail systems, the ability to get up and get out and get active, is such an important part in our culture of health, that an investment like this is critical.”
Once complete, local leaders say the goal is to provide a more safe and connected routes between Noblesville, Fishers, Indianapolis and other surrounding cities.
Resident Steve Mundell said, “It’s lovely. It’ll be real convenient to get across too.”

Good and bad from Colts’ 2026 NFLPA report card grades
What grades did the Indianapolis Colts earn on the 2026 NFLPA report cards?
The NFLPA is no longer able to make their annual report cards public. However, ESPN’s Kayln Kahler was able to obtain a copy of the reports following the 2025 NFL season, and the Indianapolis Colts were again around the middle of the pack.
In these report cards, players rate numerous aspects of the organizations they play for, from ownership to the training facilities and everything in between. According to Kahler, 1,759 players contributed to these grades.
So, where did the Colts end up this year relative to the rest of the NFL this year?
Overall, the Colts ranked 17th. Below is a breakdown of each individual grade they received.
- Treatment of Families: B

Carlie Irsay Gordon, Kalen Jackson, and Casey Foyt earned an A in their first year as the primary owners.
The field at Lucas Oil Stadium received a very low mark, earning a D, while the locker room was given a C+. Those were the two lowest grades the Colts received.
