🌞 Today’s Weather

Today’s weather in Bloomington: High of 55 degrees, low of 28 degrees. Oh, good morning, neighbors! Just peeking out the window here in our cozy corner of Bloomington to give you the lowdown on today’s weather. Looks like we might have a bit of a foggy start to the dayβ€”kind of like when you’re trying to find your keys in your bag, but can’t quite see them at the bottom. 🌫️ But don’t worry, it should clear up by lunchtime, just in time for that midday stroll through Karst Farm Park or a leisurely walk around the IU Campus. πŸŒ³πŸŽ“ As we move into the afternoon, those clouds will be sneaking in like a group of friends trying to crash a picnic, but no worries, they’re just here for the party. πŸŽͺπŸŒ₯️ With a high near 55, it might be a good idea to grab a light jacket before heading out to pick up some goodies from Bloomingfoods or meet a friend for a coffee at Indiana Memorial Union. β˜•οΈπŸ›οΈ Keep an eye out for that south wind in the morningβ€”it’s going to do a little dance with the clouds and then switch to a westward waltz in the afternoon. πŸ’¨ Tonight, it’s all about cozying up as the clouds linger and the temperatures dip down to around 28. Perfect excuse for a movie night in or a quiet evening admiring the stars from Morgan Observatory. 🌌✨ And tomorrow, we’ll be treated to mostly sunny skies with a high near 41β€”sounds like a porch-sitting kind of day to me! 🌞🏑 So, grab your favorite mug of something warm and enjoy the day, Bloomington. Remember, I’ve got your back like an old friend when it comes to all things weather. Stay cozy and have a wonderful day!
