Many Hoosiers picked up 1 to 4 inches across the state, especially in central and northern Indiana. We have the official snowfall reports from around the state (below).

Another few inches fell in a heavier burst of snow through the afternoon and evening. Now most of the snow is gone, but as roads stay wet, there may be slick spots on your commute throughout Friday. Indianapolis officially picked up 3.

This is the earliest 3"+ snowfall of the season since 1997. We had a couple inches in early November in 2022, but not 3". The previous record for Nov.
