Don’t worry — it doesn’t sound like we’re in for the polar temperatures you’d find up north in Canada or around Minnesota’s Twin Cities, but we may not get the mild winter season we enjoyed in last year.
It’s predicted that Indy will see average snowfall.

You never know what our snow situation is going to be year-to-year, but it sounds like we’re not in for anything unusual when it comes to snowfall this winter. Hopefully, that means we’ll have a white Christmas, but a dry January so we can get to work and make back all that money we spent during the holidays.
The coldest periods will likely occur during early-to-mid December, early January, and mid-February.

These coldest periods will coincide with the snowiest periods of the winter season, meaning that you should be prepared to get out the snow shovels, boots, and puffy coats for a few weeks.
The holiday season is nearly upon us, which means winter is nearly upon us. Make sure you get those coats, hats, and boots ready to go.

Here’s hoping we see some nice snowfall, but only during times that our commutes aren’t affected.

It’s going to be colder than last year, but it shouldn’t be anything us Indianapolis residents haven’t seen before!
