The National Weather Service continues to have a Winter Weather Advisory in place for the Fishers area beginning at 1pm today through 4am Thursday.
The latest update from the forecasters indicates Fishers will be very close to the line between snow and rain in this weather system. NWS says icy conditions are more likely in the northern suburbs of Indianapolis, which obviously includes Fishers.
Because the forecast is a bit uncertain, any movement of this weather system a little north or south can change everything. Stay in touch as you plan your evening rush hour and evening activities today.
Below is the latest update from the National Weather Service, issued at 10:36am today:
...WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 4 AM EST THURSDAY... * WHAT...Mixed precipitation expected. Ice accumulations up to around a quarter of an inch. Total snow accumulations up to three inches in far North Central Indiana. * WHERE...Portions of central, east central, north central, and west central Indiana. * WHEN...Until 4 AM EST Thursday. * IMPACTS...Roads, and especially bridges and overpasses, will likely become slick and hazardous. Plan on slippery road conditions. The hazardous conditions could impact the Wednesday evening commute. * ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Greatest area of uncertainty exists along the I-70 corridor where the transition line from plain rain to freezing rain will set up. Impacts may widely vary over small south to north distances throughout the Indianapolis Metro area and along I-70. The northern Indy suburbs have a greater threat of freezing rain and icy conditions. A difference of just one degree can mean the difference between plain rain and significant ice. Stay tuned for updates as the latest winter storm evolves today. PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...
