Indiana – Headlights glow through patchy fog this morning as light snow taps windshields and pavement feels slick under tires. Winter conditions are actively unfolding across northeast Indiana, and travel demands extra attention early.
According to the National Weather Service in Northern Indiana, temperatures sit near 12 degrees in Fort Wayne, with wind chills around minus 7. Snow and a wintry mix continue through the morning hours, gradually tapering later today. Total snow accumulation remains under one inch, but icy spots are possible.
Roads along I-69, US-30, and surface streets may turn slick at times, especially during heavier snow bursts. Fog between mid-morning and early afternoon could briefly reduce visibility, complicating the commute. Crews continue treating roads, but refreezing remains a concern due to persistent cold.
By this afternoon, precipitation eases and clouds linger. Highs reach the upper 20s, offering limited melting. Tonight stays cold, with lows near 17. Any moisture left on roads or sidewalks may refreeze quickly after sunset.
Tuesday brings another weak chance for snow, mainly before midday. Accumulation remains light, but even brief snow showers could create slick travel again. Temperatures stay near freezing during the day, then fall sharply Tuesday night, with lows near 5.
Midweek offers a short calm stretch. Wednesday turns mostly sunny, yet highs only reach the lower 20s. Cold air remains firmly in place, keeping pavement cold and untreated surfaces icy. Thursday stays dry but chilly, with highs near 25.
Snow chances return late Thursday night into Friday, with another round of light snow possible. As February continues, repeated light events combined with cold ground increase the risk of flash freezing during evening hours.
Slow down on slick roads, allow extra braking distance, and watch for foggy stretches. What are road conditions like in your neighborhood this morning?
