INDIANAPOLIS -- We could break a record in Indianapolis Tuesday. The high for today is 79, but we could hit 80 very easily.

Indianapolis has only seen one 80-degree day in November in its history: Nov. 1, 1950. 

What else was going on when Indy saw its last 80-degree day?

  • Harry S. Truman was in the middle of his second term as president of the United States.
  • Minimum wage was only $0.75.
  • Gas cost just $0.22 per gallon.
  • The hit song at the time? Nat King Cole's "Mona Lisa."
