🌞 BloomingtonOnline Weather Report
High: 37°F | Low: 27°F
Looks like we're in for a little dance of snow and rain today, Bloomington pals! 🌨️❄️ The weather's deciding to put on a show for us, starting with some snow popping in around 7 am. Picture those fluffy flakes creating a cozy blanket over our town.
By the time we're thinking about lunch at Assembly Hall or maybe grabbing some goodies at Apna Bazaar International Market, the snow might be waving goodbye, turning into some rain. So, grab that umbrella if you're heading out later in the day.
Temperatures are doing their own little shuffle today, starting near 37 degrees and then deciding to cool down as the day goes on. So, you might want to layer up if you're planning to stroll around the Sample Gates or maybe take a spooky adventure near Stepp Cemetery later in the day. 🚪👻🌲
Tonight, as we're cozied up inside, the rain and snow mix might make us want to reach for a warm cup of cocoa from Mother Bear's Pizza. The low will be around 27 degrees, a bit chilly but nothing a good blanket can't fix!
Remember to drive safe out there, especially with those gusty winds—up to 24 mph during the day and possibly up to 30 mph at night. So, hold onto your hats! 🌬️ And if you're a fan of a brisk evening walk, it might just feel like the perfect porch-sitting night as the temperature settles around 27 degrees.
Stay warm, stay safe, and enjoy the whims of our Bloomington weather today, friends! 🌦️☕
