Wed Nov 20 11:30:00 UTC 2024: ## Fort Wayne Facing Rain, Wind, and Potential Snow This Week
**FORT WAYNE, IN** – Fort Wayne residents should prepare for a week of fluctuating weather, according to WPTA First Alert Weather. Light rain showers are expected Monday evening into Tuesday morning, with possible partly sunny breaks in the afternoon. However, breezy conditions with wind gusts up to 25 mph are anticipated.
A more significant weather system is forecast to hit the Great Lakes region mid-week, bringing rain on Wednesday, transitioning to wet snow by Thursday. This prompted WPTA to issue a First Alert Weather Day for Thursday. While exact timing remains uncertain, significant impacts from the cold air and snow are expected.
The system will clear by late Thursday, leaving behind partly cloudy skies with a chance of light rain showers and highs in the 40s on Friday. Those attending Christmas on Broadway festivities at Broadway Plaza on Thursday evening are urged to dress warmly, as windy conditions will make temperatures feel much colder than the actual readings. WPTA reporters will be broadcasting live from the event starting at 5 pm.
