INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — Tuesday was filled with chilly rain across much of central Indiana. Spots in the Midwest have picked up a half foot of snow in the states to our west.

Our low-pressure system on Tuesday was strong and took a track right over us. With that being said, history was made. January’s record low-pressure mark adjusted at sea level in Indianapolis is 984.4 mb set back on January 26, 1978. More notably for us in central Indiana, that date and storm is known as the Blizzard of ’78.

At 3 p.m., our sea level pressure was 981.8 mb which broke the monthly record for January.

It’s quite rare to see these types of systems. However, another strong low-pressure system will be on the way later this week.

This system may also have the chance at the sea level pressure record in Indianapolis if it tracks directly through central Indiana.
