Light snow moves in tonight, some slippery spots during the morning commute


FORT WAYNE, Ind. (WPTA) – While only a flurry or two is expected through about 9 pm, as we approach midnight – and likely through midmorning Friday – light snow will fall off and on across much of the area thanks to being in the direct path of an Alberta Clipper! As explained in yesterday’s forecast discussion, these systems generally don’t have a lot of moisture to work with and, as the name implies, they are pretty fast moving. As a result, accumulations will likely be limited to an inch or so for most, though closer to the Michigan line some communities could see amounts closer to 1.5″.

As for the morning drive (4-9 am) I would still plan for some slowdowns – perhaps by as much as 5 or 10 minutes. Though only half an inch or so of accumulation is expected by that point, a little can go a long way early in the cold season! Conditions should rapidly improve through the late morning and afternoon, though if you’re headed to South Bend for the game prepare for another inch or two of snow to contend with!

The weekend still looks cold with highs in the 20s and then warmer conditions (30s to low 40s) will be the dominant theme through much of next week, including Christmas Eve and Day. While some showers are possible Monday through Wednesday of next week, I do not foresee any significant travel disruptions related to wintry weather!

ALERTING YOU FIRST: The next big thing we’re tracking could arrive late next week or the final weekend of 2024 in the form of…highs back in the 50s and possibly low 60s! All indications point to a short-lived warm up (per usual this time of year!), but it will provide another opportunity to get up for some air before the next cold blast inevitably settles in 🙂
