Looks like we’re waking up to a cozy morning in our little slice of Bloomington.🌥️ Patchy fog is hanging around, giving everything a serene vibe—perfect for a slow start to the day. Maybe it’s a good time to enjoy a warm cup of coffee from Hopscotch Coffee or a stroll around the friendly streets near the McDoel Blooms mural.🏡🎨 As we peek out the window with our favorite mug in hand, we’ll notice the clouds are sticking around, keeping things cool with a high near 48. The wind seems to be taking a break today, offering us a calm and peaceful atmosphere. It’s the kind of day where you might want to grab a cozy sweater from Vintage Vogue by GW before heading out for a walk in Bryan Park or a visit to the Bloomington Farmers’ Market.👗🍂 Later in the day, after lunchtime, there’s a chance of isolated showers popping up, so you might want to tuck that umbrella in your bag just in case. But don’t let that dampen your spirits! The high will reach around 55, and the gentle south wind will start whispering through at about 5 mph.🌧️🍃 And hey, if you’re feeling adventurous, why not take a drive down to Monroe Lake to catch the big skies and stunning sunsets?
