🌞 BloomingtonOnline Weather Report

Today’s weather in Bloomington: High of 65 degrees, low of 64 degrees. Looks like Mother Nature is starting our day with a gentle shower dance before we’re even up and about. 🌧️ But fear not, my Bloomington buddies, those raindrops will be taking a bow and heading out by mid-morning. So, whether you’re grabbing a latte from Hopscotch Coffee or taking a stroll along Clear Creek Trail, you won’t need to dodge raindrops for long. Temps are holding steady around 64 degrees today, keeping things cozy like a favorite sweater. But hold onto your hats, quite literally, because a brisk breeze will be joining the party, making sure McDoel Blooms mural and Mathers Museum flags are fluttering proudly in the wind. 🌬️ As we head into the afternoon, the clouds will be playing a game of peek-a-boo with the sun, keeping things cool and comfy. By the time evening rolls around, it’ll feel like the perfect porch-sitting weather, with temps dipping down to around 48 degrees. So, maybe grab a light jacket if you’re headed out to dinner at The Owlery Restaurant to enjoy some vegan goodness under the night sky. 🍽️ Tonight, as the moon rises over our lovely town, the winds will calm down, giving us a peaceful night with a low around 41 degrees. It’ll be the kind of night where you can snuggle up with a good book or catch up on your favorite podcast under a cozy blanket. 📚✨ So, my Bloomington buddies, whether you’re out and about or taking it easy at home, enjoy the day and all the little moments it brings.
