If you ordered a White Christmas, its coming, a bit late but will pack a punch!

The entire HOT 96.3 Listening area is now under a Blizzard Warning, until 7pm Wednesday night. Snow will be accompanied by wind gusts of 40 mph.

UPDATE:  Indianapolis Mayor Ballard declares City offices will be closed Wednesday due to snowstorm. “Non-essential” personnel should not report to work.

A blizzard warning means severe winter weather conditions are expected or occurring. Falling and blowing snow with strong winds and poor visibilities are likely. This will lead to whiteout conditions, making travel extremely dangerous. Do not travel. If you must travel, bring a winter survival kit with you. If you get stranded, stay with your vehicle.
