🌞 BloomingtonOnline Weather Report
High: 36°F | Low: 24°F
Oh hey there, neighbor! Looks like we've got a mix of clouds and maybe a sprinkle of snow dancing in the evening air tonight. 🌨️❄️ So, if you're planning a cozy night in or a stroll under the stars at the Morgan Observatory, you might want to bring along a scarf to keep you snug.
As we tuck in for the night, those clouds will stick around like a good friend, keeping us company with a low around 24. 🌙 And hey, who knows, maybe the moon will peek out to say hello over at Dunn Cemetery, keeping those ghost stories alive and well. 👻
Now, tomorrow morning might start off a bit shy, but no worries—those clouds will slowly part ways, letting the sun shine through like a warm smile. 🌥️ So, whether you're off to grab a pint at Upland Brewing Company or exploring the hidden gems at Rong Cheng Supermarket, it's shaping up to be a delightful day with a high near 34.
Just a gentle reminder, the wind might play a little game of tag, starting from the west and then switching things up to the north after midnight. 🌬️ So, if you're out and about, hold onto your hat like you're chasing after a runaway kite at The Quarry.
Alrighty, friends, it's always a pleasure keeping you in the loop on our Bloomington weather adventures. Stay warm, stay dry, and stay curious about what the skies have in store for us next. Take care out there! ☕🌤️
