NOAA's 2025-26 Winter Outlook for Indiana
The Climate Prediction Center of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) has released its 2025-26 winter outlook.
In Indiana, above-average precipitation is expected from December to February, but this does not necessarily mean above-average snow, as precipitation includes rain, snow, and mixed precipitation.
Temperatures are expected to have equal chances of being above or below average, with no strong signal either way.
NOAA's predictions have been more accurate than the Old Farmer's Almanac and Farmers' Almanac, but still only correct for 3 of the last 5 winters regarding precipitation in Indianapolis.
They are leaning above average with precipitation.
- Above-average precipitation expected
- No guarantee of above-average snow
- Equal chances of above or below average temperatures
