Scattered light rain showers are still in the area, even a few snowflakes mixing in. Most of the showers should wrap up by later this evening. We're in for a cold night as temperatures fall to the lower 30s. FREEZE WARNING tonight from 12AM-8AM EDT

A fantastic day in store today with plenty of sunshine and temperatures rising to the mid 70s - note that it will be cooler near the lakeshore, not making it out of the 60s. Make sure you grab the sunglasses and maybe a light jacket first thing.

It's going to be a fantastic day here in Michiana with mostly sunny skies as temperatures rise to the lower 80s! It will be comfortable and pleasant, but Friday and Saturday will be more on the humid side. #weather #forecast #firstalert

Isolated showers possible through the first half of the day before scattered showers and a few t-storms roll-in during the afternoon and into the evening. Brief heavy rain is possible and remember - if thunder roars, head indoors! #weather

A low pressure system to our south will skim by, bringing a slight chance of light showers to our southern counties today. The rest of us will just pick up more cloud coverage through the first half of the day, then becoming partly cloudy by this evening.

Lots of sunshine today with cooler temperatures in the mid to upper 60s (cooler near the lake in the upper 50s to low 60s). Thanks to Canadian wild fires, we'll have a hazy sky today and tomorrow. #weather #forecast #firstalert

A cool day today with temperatures only rising to the mid to upper 60s. Although we have clear skies, there is a haziness to the atmosphere and that is thanks to Canadian wild fires and the smoke plume moving into Michiana. #weather #wildfire

Hazy sunshine once again today as smoke from Canadian wild fires continues to move through. That gave us another beautiful sunrise and expect a colorful sunset tonight as well. Temperatures rise to the lower 70s today after a chilly start this morning.

A very warm and sunny day today with highs in the lower 80s! Tomorrow, a cold front moves through bringing a few added clouds. It will also knock our temperatures down a bit, especially into Thursday with highs only in the upper 60s. #weather #forecast

A nice day today with temperatures rising to the upper 70s before a cold front will move from the north to the south through Michiana. Depending on the exact timing, will result in our high going up or down a few degrees potentially. #weather

Another cool night ahead for Michiana as temperatures fall to the low to mid 40s overnight under clear skies. We'll warm up to normal temps in the low to mid 70s on Friday with plenty of sunshine again. We'll be into the 80s for the holiday weekend!

Sunny skies continue this evening, leaving us with clear skies overnight as temperatures fall to the upper 40s. Tomorrow, we're in the upper 70s with sunny skies. By Memorial Day, we hit the mid 80s! #weather #forecast #sunny #heat

Temps continue to rise on Saturday, getting us into the upper 70s. However, areas along the shoreline will be about ten degrees cooler. If you're heading to the beach tomorrow, be aware of not only those cooler temps but also the cold lake water!

An Air Quality Action Day is in place through Saturday evening. All across Michiana, we have a 20-30% chance of pop up showers and a few rumbles of thunder possible Saturday late afternoon into the evening.

A second osprey chick has now hatched! Taking a look at your weather forecast, today will be hot but not as hot as we have been. We'll reach into the mid 80s today but we'll also have a bit of a breeze with wind gusts up to 20 mph at times.
