FORT WAYNE, Ind. – Northern Indiana is holding on to summer warmth, with Fort Wayne set for highs in the upper 80s this weekend. Those planning early Halloween decorating or fall festivals can expect plenty of sunshine and dry roads through Sunday.
According to the National Weather Service in Northern Indiana, temperatures will climb into the mid to upper 80s Friday and Saturday, with calm winds and clear skies. The stretch of warm, dry days will give residents an extended window for outdoor work, football games, and seasonal activities before conditions shift early next week.
Saturday looks especially bright, with a high near 87 degrees under sunny skies. By Sunday, Fort Wayne will still hold in the mid-80s, making for another pleasant day. Drivers on I-69, U.S. 30, and other area roadways should encounter no weather-related travel issues through the weekend.
The pattern begins to change Monday afternoon, when scattered showers may push into Allen County. By Tuesday, a stronger system could bring thunderstorms and cooler air, dropping highs into the upper 70s by midweek. Residents should stay weather-aware as conditions turn more unsettled.
The window for outdoor decorating, yard cleanup, and early fall activities is best through Sunday evening. By Tuesday morning, roads could be slick with scattered rain, so commuters should allow extra time.
