Temperatures will fall quickly, with lows dipping into the mid-40s across much of Central Indiana. Winds will shift to the north, staying around 5 to 10 mph, creating a crisp, cool night perfect for Friday evening activities.

TOMORROW

Saturday will bring a return to more seasonable weather with mostly sunny skies. Highs will remain slightly cooler than recent days, around the low 60s across the area. A light northerly breeze of 5 to 10 mph will keep things feeling cool, making it a good day to get outside and enjoy the autumn weather, albeit with a jacket.

Sunday is expected to be mostly sunny with highs again near the low 60s. Winds will be light and variable, calming further into the afternoon, making for a beautiful day to catch the Indiana Pacers’ game against the Philadelphia 76ers at Gainbridge Fieldhouse. Expect great conditions for any pre- or post-game outdoor activities.

SUNDAY NIGHT

Skies will be mostly clear as we close out the weekend, with temperatures once again falling into the upper 30s. Winds will shift slightly from the southeast at around 5 mph, and the calm night should help any outdoor plans remain uninterrupted.
