Little or no snow accumulation is expected. Skies will clear later this morning and allow temperatures to climb above freezing once again. This will allow for the continued melting of the extensive snowpack. <\/p>\n<p>The release of much, if not potentially all of the 1.5 to 4 inches of water trapped in the snow, will begin to set the stage for a increasing flooding risk as rain arrives along a warm front Thursday morning. 0.75 to 1&#8243; of rain is forecasted to fall, with temperatures then climbing into the upper 40s to middle 50s by late afternoon. <\/p>\n<p>These elements will cause a rapid increase in standing water across the area and response to area rivers, streams and creeks. If you live near areas prone to flooding, watch closely for rising water and be prepared to take action before it&#8217;s too late. Many cities and counties are providing sandbag materials to assist homeowners. Contact your local officials for additional details. <\/p>\n<p>In addition to the flooding threat, gusty winds are expected along and behind the front. Some of these winds could be the result of a narrow line of thunderstorms immediately along the front. Behind the front, colder weather will return.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h3>Related Images:<\/h3><div class=\"ngg-related-gallery\">\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/gallery\/isp\/t20251111-ISP.jpg\"\n\t\t\ttitle=\"From left to right: Troopers Chase Pfefferkorn, Eric Mitchel, Bryce Kukelhan, and Caleb Wooldridge.
