Saturday morning, April 25, 2026, brought Indianapolis a gray, soupy start, with patchy to locally dense fog, temperatures near 55°F, and visibility dropping in low-lying neighborhoods. The fog is expected to thin during the morning commute, with skies turning mostly sunny and afternoon highs climbing into the mid 70s. If you are heading out early, expect slower drive times and give yourself extra room for lane changes and sudden stops.
Foggy Morning, Sunny Afternoon
A Special Weather Statement and dense fog products are in effect for parts of central Indiana this morning, with reports of visibility down to about a quarter mile in river valleys and other low spots, so use low beams and leave extra stopping distance. The fog should lift through the morning and give way to mainly sunny conditions, with a high near 76°F this afternoon. According to the National Weather Service, the low visibility will mainly affect the early commute in some counties.
Warm Weekend And Monday Threat
Mostly sunny skies stick around into Sunday, with highs in the mid 70s and overnight lows holding in the upper 40s to low 50s. A stronger system ejecting out of the Rockies will pull a warm, moist sector north late Sunday, bringing a chance of showers and thunderstorms on Monday, April 27, 2026. Storms may fire over western Indiana by late Monday afternoon and become more widespread into the evening. According to the National Weather Service, the setup could support severe thunderstorms Monday night with damaging wind gusts and an isolated tornado threat, so keeping an eye on updated forecasts will be important.
What To Know
If you have to drive this morning, slow down, use low beams, and allow extra stopping distance, since even short trips could take longer in the thickest fog. Weekend outdoor plans look good as is, with sun and comfortable temperatures, but build a backup plan for Monday evening. If thunderstorms develop, head indoors and follow local alerts. Keep wireless alerts enabled on your phone and check in with the National Weather Service for any watches or warnings that may be issued.
