Happy holidays to you and yours from all of us at DBNS! ❄️✨ Our offices will be closed from noon, Dec. 23 through Dec. 25. We'll be back Friday, Dec. 26 with normal hours.

With Weather™️ in the forecast, Department of Public Works snow crews are on rotating, 12-hour shifts. If you do happen to venture out tonight, give the plows plenty of room to properly salt & clean the roadways. Stay safe and warm, Indy! Watch out for Weather™️.

❄️EXTREME COLD ALERT❄️ Cats and dogs can get frostbite and hypothermia, too. When temps are below 20°F, owners must bring their pets inside.

YOUR FORECAST | Accumulating snow will head in our direction later tonight. We will see a messy Friday morning commute. More snow moves in on Saturday and then a bitter blast of cold air comes in for the end of the weekend.
