FORT WAYNE, Indiana – The crisp calm of late October will hold across northeast Indiana for another day or two before clouds and scattered showers creep back toward the end of the week. For now, it’s a gentle stretch—bright mornings, mild afternoons, and breezes strong enough to send fallen leaves tumbling down rural roads.
According to the National Weather Service in Northern Indiana, Tuesday will be sunny and comfortable, with highs near 60 degrees and light east winds that may gust up to 25 mph. Wednesday continues the pleasant trend, reaching the upper 50s under mostly sunny skies, though clouds will increase by evening as a weak cold front approaches from the west.
Showers are expected to develop late Wednesday night into Thursday, bringing light rainfall mainly along and south of the U.S. 30 corridor. Totals should stay below a quarter inch, but wet pavement may slow early commuters Thursday morning. By Thursday afternoon, the system slides east, leaving partly cloudy skies and cooler air behind.
Friday looks largely dry, ideal for Halloween celebrations across Allen, DeKalb, and Adams counties. Trick-or-treaters can expect highs around 54 degrees with calm winds and temperatures dipping into the upper 40s by dusk—a mild, comfortable evening for costumes and outdoor events.
The weekend outlook trends cooler and unsettled again, with a few scattered showers possible both Saturday and Sunday. To be fair, the early November chill waiting behind these passing systems is typical for Indiana this time of year—after all, November seldom arrives without its first real bite of winter air.
