FORT WAYNE, Ind. (WOWO) – Fort Wayne officials say they are ready for the snow expected this weekend. 

The National Weather Service has forecasted up to seven inches of snow on Saturday. A Winter Storm Warning is in effect until at least 7 p.m. on Sunday. 

Road conditions are expected to be hazardous, and following the holiday, there is expected to be a large number of people on the roads. 

The city’s tanker trucks used for leaf pickup have been converted into snowplows, making a total of 36 trucks that will be on the road over the weekend. 

Residents are asked to find off-street parking to allow snow trucks to plow as close to curbs as possible.
