Fort Wayne drivers and residents will notice a taste of fall arriving Friday night as cooler air settles over northern Indiana. After a stretch of late-summer warmth, temperatures are set to dip sharply, leaving evening football games and outdoor events feeling brisk.
According to the National Weather Service in Northern Indiana, Thursday will stay partly sunny with a high near 69 before clearing tonight. Friday brings mostly sunny skies and a high near 72, but winds could gust up to 20 mph, adding a chill by sunset. Lows will fall into the upper 40s, making Friday night the first real sign of fall across Allen County.
Travelers along I-69 and U.S. 30 should prepare for reduced visibility in rural spots due to patchy overnight fog. While severe weather is not expected, brisk winds and sharp nighttime temperature drops could catch late drivers off guard. Layering up for outdoor events and securing lightweight outdoor items are recommended heading into the weekend.
Saturday continues mild with a high near 68 under mostly sunny skies. Sunday warms slightly to the upper 60s before rebounding near 70 on Monday under clear skies. No hazardous weather is forecast through Tuesday, offering a stretch of calm conditions after today’s spotty thunder chances.
The cooler pattern signals fall’s arrival in Indiana, but for now, residents can expect clear skies and manageable conditions into early next week.
