Snow is expected to fall around Indianapolis for a couple of hours after what started as a light rain early Friday morning turned into light snow showers about 10 a.m.
Central Indianapolis can expect up to an inch of accumulation, which could make for slick roads.
Meteorologists with NWS Indianapolis expect the snow to taper off around 1 to 2 p.m., with temperatures remaining in the lower 30s and dropping into the upper 20s this evening.
The NWS Indianapolis is also warning drivers to be careful this afternoon once the snowfall begins to end.
“It could result in some slippery surfaces through the afternoon,” meteorologist Jason Puma said — especially on untreated roads.
Will it snow for tonight’s IU vs. Notre Dame game?
For anyone wondering if tonight’s Battle for Indiana will be blessed with snow?
Meteorologists believe that tonight’s game will most likely not be snowy, but there is a chance light snow showers could periodically fall over Notre Dame Stadium.
“By that time the precipitation should move out of the area, so I wouldn’t expect a lot of snow going on during the course of the game in South Bend,” Puma said.
“It certainly will be cloudy and colder. There could be some light showers and flurries in the area, but we’re not expecting a big snow.”
Either way, the College Football Playoff’s first round will be worth a watch as it will be the first time in over 30 years Indiana football and Notre Dame have faced off.

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.

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.
