Wintry weather returns, slick start to Friday

Winter weather comes roaring back to Michiana. Temperatures will drop sharply tonight as rain changes to sleet and snow. Slick roads are the top concern, overall snow accumulation may be at a minimum but don’t let your guard down as ice is the main concern, after previous salt treatments are washed away.

Snow showers come to an end by midday Friday but temperatures won’t get any warmer. Temperatures drop into the teens with light lake effect snow showers near the lake Friday night into Saturday. The cold last through the weekend with another round of snow Monday.

Tonight: Rain changing to wintry mix and snow, low of 26.
