Do you remember what happened 30 years ago today? The record for earliest snowfall at Indianapolis was set on October 18, 1989 with 0.2 inch. (The average date of the first measurable snowfall at Indianapolis is November 19). This was the first of 3 consecutive days of measurable snowfall from a potent storm system. The total for the storm at Indianapolis was 9.3 inches of heavy wet snow, with an even higher total at Kokomo with 10.5 inches from the storm. Look at those totals!
As for *this* weekend: frosty at first, but it will get warmer.
