🌞 BloomingtonOnline Weather Report

Today’s weather in Bloomington: High of 52 degrees, low of 37 degrees. Looks like we’ve got a bit of a mixed bag coming our way today, friends! 🌦️ The day is starting off with some scattered rain showers, maybe even some snowflakes dancing around later on. So, if you’re heading out for an early morning stroll along the Clear Creek Trail or popping into Greetings on Kirkwood for a browse, you might want to grab your trusty umbrella and a cozy sweater. By midday, those clouds are going to start thickening up, giving us a reason to linger a bit longer at Malibu Grill for lunch (their seafood chowder is just the thing on a dreary day, don’t you think?). The high should reach around 52, but that pesky wind might give us a bit of a nudge, so hold onto your hats! As we ease into the evening, the chance of rain increases to about 40%, mainly huddling together between 10pm and 4am. So, if you’re planning a peaceful evening stroll through The Arboretum or a cozy night in with a good book from Wylie House Museum, you might want to have a backup plan handy. Temperatures will be taking a dip as the day goes on, with a low around 37 tonight and possibly even dropping down to 29 by late afternoon tomorrow. Brr! Looks like it’s time to dig out those extra blankets and snuggle in for a chilly night. So, my fellow Bloomington neighbors, stay cozy, stay dry, and stay warm as we navigate this weather rollercoaster together! Remember, no matter the forecast, there’s always a touch of magic in every bloom and every raindrop. Take care out there! 🌼🧣
