🌞 BloomingtonOnline Weather Report

Today’s weather in Bloomington: High of 19 degrees, low of 0 degrees. Looks like we’re in for a classic winter day in Bloomington, folks! 🌨️❄️ The sky is feeling generous with some snow, so if you were dreaming of a winter wonderland, today might be your day! The Uptown Cafe’s cozy vibes and Mother Bear’s hearty pizza are calling our names for sure. 🍳🍕 Now, the morning might start off a tad chilly, with snow likely painting a serene scene before 7 pm. By late afternoon, we might see a peek of the sun trying to join the party, gradually turning those clouds into partly cloudy skies. With a daytime accumulation of 2 to 4 inches, it’s the perfect excuse to grab your favorite hot drink and watch the snowflakes dance outside. ☕❄️ As we head into the evening, make sure to bundle up if you’re planning a stroll by the Jordan River or tackling the Ballantine Hall Stairs. The temperature might dip down to around 0, with wind chills making it feel as cold as -12. Brr! 🧗💧 But hey, tomorrow’s looking like a sunny day despite the cold! A high near 11 might not sound too warm, but after a snowy day like today, that sunshine will be a sight for sore eyes. Maybe it’s a good day to catch a performance at the Buskirk-Chumley Theater and enjoy the arts in town. 🎭🌞 So, grab those mittens, hats, and scarves, Bloomington! Stay warm, stay safe, and embrace the winter magic around us. And remember, a cup of hot cocoa can make even the chilliest day feel like a cozy hug. Here’s to a beautiful day in our lovely Bloomington! 🌦️☕
