Warmer throughout the week as spring officially begins | March 18, 2026

INDIANAPOLIS (WISH-TV) –  Temperatures begin to warm today and into the end of the week. We are going to see some very light precipitation tomorrow morning but other than that looking for a dry pattern through the end of the weekend. Spring officially begins on Friday and we will see our temperatures more spring-like by the end of the week and into the weekend.

TODAY: A warm front lifts northward this morning and produces a few light snow showers across parts of the metro area. Not a lot of measurable precipitation expected with this system. Look for mainly cloudy conditions for the first part of the day and then some sunshine later in the afternoon. High temperatures will climb right around 47 degrees. This is still below normal but much closer to normal than what we had yesterday. Winds pick up a little bit out of the south and may gust at times to 20 miles per hour.

TONIGHT: Dry conditions if you are heading to the Pacers game this evening. Partly cloudy conditions overnight with winds dropping. Temperatures will fall into the thirties. 

TOMORROW: A weak system passes through the Great Lakes bringing us a chance for a few light rain showers. We will start the day off with some cloud cover and then sunshine for the afternoon. High temperatures climb above normal with readings close to 60.

7 DAY EXTENDED FORECAST: Even warmer temperatures as we officially begin the first day of spring on Friday. Look for highs right around 67 degrees with mainly sunny skies. 

Temperatures continue to climb and will be close to 70 on Saturday under partly cloudy skies. We can’t rule out a brief shower on Sunday. Temperature still above normal into the sixties. Heading into next week temperatures return back to normal with highs in the 50s.
