WINTER STORM WARNING now in place for Porter County through 9 am tomorrow morning. An additional 2 to 8 inches of snow is expected between now and then with the highest totals closer to the LaPorte/Porter county line as well as the NE portion of Porter Co.

Enjoy the warmth today because winter makes its return tomorrow! Rain -> snow as the day goes on. Then significant LES WED night into THU evening. Current thinking on snow totals is below, that could shift slightly. @GlevaWx will have an update tomorrow with the latest thinking.

GET OUTSIDE! Northern Lights are visible IN Valpo! Best viewing will be outside of town but these were taken near the ARC on campus. Another night of these is possible tomorrow if the timing is right! Send your pics to vutvweather@valpo.edu or comment them below!

@GlevaWx has tonight wx update! Significant LES on the way for some. Bullseye looks to be between I-65 in NW IN and LaPorte county, still very uncertain about the Chicago metro's totals. A very complex forecast over the next 48 hours! Details in the video below! #INwx #ILWx

Lake-effect snow Sunday into Monday evening, @GlevaWx's Friday evening thoughts on the snow below! The bullseye is looking like LaPorte county for the first LES of the year! System snow Saturday night into Sunday doesn't look like much, maybe up to an inch. #INwx
