Special Weather Statement issued June 9 at 2:29PM EDT by NWS Indianapolis IN

Effective: Tue June 9, 2026, 2:29 PM
Expires: Wed June 10, 2026, 4:00 AM

Early season heat is upon us, with forecasted high temperatures for Wednesday and Thursday in the upper 80s to lower 90s. Gulf moisture surging northward into the state will bring heat indices into the 95 to 104-degree temperature range during peak heating both days. Use the following safety tips for facing the heat safely: * Stay hydrated, avoiding alcohol and drinks with heavy caffeine or sugar. * Dress in loose fitting clothing, light in color. * Take advantage of shade and air conditioning when possible. * Take frequent breaks when working outdoors. * Beware that automobiles heat up very quickly, thus pets and children should not be left in parked vehicles for any length of time. * Vulnerable populations are particularly at risk: elderly, infants, and people with chronic medical conditions.

The times presented here are based upon the solunar theory, which is the idea that the movements of fish and other animals are affected by the location of the sun and moon. The major periods are believed to be the times of the greatest animal activity and occur when the moon is directly overhead or underfoot (lunar transits). The minor periods also see increased activity and occur when the moon is rising or setting. The strongest activity occurs during full or new moons, and the weakest during quarter or three quarter moons. This is indicated by the Action Rating.
