FORT WAYNE, IN – A quiet but steady snowfall is winding down this morning across northern Indiana, leaving roads slick and reflective under headlights. The temperature sits near 25°, with visibility still limited in patches of light fog and mist. Winter’s grip is tightening as the first full week of December begins.
According to the National Weather Service in Northern Indiana, a Winter Weather Advisory remains in effect until 7 a.m. EST for portions of northern Indiana and northwest Ohio, including Fort Wayne, Wabash, and Van Wert counties. Snowfall totals have reached around one inch, just enough to make untreated roads slippery and slow-going.
Drivers are urged to reduce speed and use extra caution on bridges and secondary roads where black ice is likely to form. Crews have been out salting major routes, but lingering snow and freezing moisture could cause sudden slick spots during the morning commute.
By midday, skies turn mostly cloudy with a calmer stretch through the afternoon. Another round of light snow may arrive Wednesday night, bringing minor accumulation and renewed travel concerns. Highs through midweek stay near freezing, with lows dipping into the teens by Thursday.
