Climate - 4/12/2010
In Northern Indiana the Summers can get very warm and humid, often producing thunderstorms or tornadoes. Unfortunately, the Summers seems to go by so fast, sometimes not getting really warm til late June with temps up in the 90's with high humidity. Then Fall has arrived by October, where the scenery can be very beautiful colors that come with the change of the season.

In the winter it can get as cold or colder as minus 15 below zero and has been a part of the history behind the Blizzard of 78' where we

Great Area - 6/7/2005
Having moved here from Canada, I can say this is a wonderful area. The winters are shorter than up north and not as cold - but they do get lake effect weather from Lake Michigan - lots of snow, thunderstorms and the occasional tornados. The people are friendly and all the conveniences of a large town are here and what you cannot find you can travel 2 hours to Chicago and 3 hours to Indianapolis for the large city feeling.
The one concern I do have is the medical is not up to standards. My wife is diabetic and while visiting several diabetic doctors in the area we did not get the assistance we required. We eventually started seeing a doctor in Indianapolis. Other than that the mainstream medical facilities are up to date and
