About half an inch of snow fell in the Indianapolis area Wednesday night and into Thursday morning, and more snow is expected to accumulate throughout the first half of the day, according to the National Weather Service.
Early morning measurements near the Indianapolis International Airport Thursday morning showed just under an inch of new snow on the ground, NWS meteorologist Aaron Updike said. Snow will continue to fall throughout the morning, and some places around the city could see a total of 2 inches of fresh snowfall.

The same winter storm that blew more than 8 inches of snow into Indianapolis on Monday hit Texas and hit it hard.
The southern state reached record-breaking cold temperatures and residents cranking up the heat overwhelmed power generators. Millions of households lost electricity, and many have now been without power and heat for days. Predictions on when it will be restored are uncertain.
As the chill settled in, Texans unaccustomed to cold, snow and ice scrambled to keep themselves warm. Families huddled around fireplaces, burning pieces of old fence or furniture. People waited in lines for as long as five hours for groceries. More than 30 people nationwide have died from the winter storm.
