Snow and bitter cold in Indiana. What to expect in the days ahead

The National Weather Service predicts a very wintry weekend ahead for central Indiana.

Indianapolis could see flurries as early as 8 p.m. on Thursday, Dec. 11, but snow likely won't start to accumulate until about 10 p.m., according to NWS meteorologist Alexander McGinnis.

"The roads could certainly be slick across the (Indianapolis) metro area by 9 p.m.," McGinnis said.
