INDIANAPOLIS — Dry weather persists in central Indiana, leading to burn bans across multiple counties. Burn bans are in effect in Jasper, Richland, and Crawford counties in Illinois. Clay and Vigo counties are also under a burn ban in Indiana. Sullivan County implemented a burn ban last night.

 

Residents of these areas are strongly advised to avoid outdoor burning activities, including burning trash, leaves, or other materials. The dry conditions increase the risk of field and wildfires that can spread rapidly.

 

Here is the weather forecast for the region:

 

Today, it will be sunny, with highs around 60 degrees. Expect west winds at 10 to 15 mph. Tonight, it will be clear, with lows around 30 degrees Fahrenheit.

 

Tomorrow, it will be sunny with highs in the upper 50s. Tomorrow night will be mostly clear, with lows in the lower 30s.

 

It will be mostly sunny on Wednesday, with highs around 60 degrees. Wednesday night will also be mostly clear, with lows in the upper 30s.
