FORT WAYNE, Ind. (WPTA) – Our First Alert Weather Day is over as temperatures begin to climb throughout the day. By this afternoon and evening, wind chills will finally move above zero, bringing some relief from the dangerous cold we’ve experienced. Yes, it will still be cold, but we will climb back towards our average high in the mid 30s by tomorrow.
Snow showers are returning to the forecast Wednesday morning when a clipper system arrives just past midnight and sticks around until lunchtime. Around Fort Wayne, we’re expecting a half inch to an inch of snow, with areas closer to the Indiana/Michigan line potentially seeing closer to 2 inches.
Will it impact your commute? We’re keeping a close eye on road conditions throughout Wednesday morning. The timing and intensity of the snow could affect your drive to work or school, so stay with us for the latest updates.
Friday-Sunday: Another Round of Arctic Air
The bigger concern is what’s coming this weekend. Another round of arctic air is expected to move in Friday through Sunday, and we’re already watching this period as a potential string of more First Alert Weather Days. Temperatures will plummet from the 30s on Wednesday to the single digits by Friday. Wind chills will stay between -10 to -20 degrees, just like the start of this week…
