Local Climate & Pet Care

Winter

18°F to 38°F

Dec – Feb

Cold and gray with moderate snowfall. The heritage trail along the river can be icy after snow. Deming Park paths are usually cleared and offer safer walking. Protect paws from salt and limit time outdoors on the coldest days.

Spring

35°F to 65°F

Mar – May

Wabash River flooding can close low-lying trails. As water recedes, the riverside walks become green and inviting. Severe thunderstorms are possible. Watch for ticks on wooded trails at Dobbs Park.

Summer

62°F to 88°F

Jun – Aug

Warm and humid with frequent thunderstorms. Morning walks along the heritage trail are the best option. Deming Park provides shade for hot afternoons. Keep water available and watch for heat stress in pets.

Fall

38°F to 68°F

Sep – Nov

Fall color along the Wabash River is beautiful. October is ideal for trail walks and park visits. Dobbs Park nature center trails offer scenic autumn hikes. Daylight shortens quickly, so bring reflective gear by November.
