Live Doppler 13 afternoon forecast Monday, April 7, 2025
Temperatures are starting off near the freezing mark this morning as areas of patchy dense fog develop. Temperatures will warm into the low to mid 50s in the early afternoon ahead of another cold front in the late afternoon. Outside of a stray mixed shower, this will be a mainly dry front, but have a bigger impact on our temperatures.
With an abnormally warm and wet start to spring, growing seasons have already begun. Due to this, a Freeze Warning will be in effect overnight into Tuesday morning as temperatures forecast to drop into the mid 20s with wind chill values as chilly as 1520. While we see a quiet, dry and sunny day, itll be unseasonably cool with highs in the mid 40s.
Were watching for a midweek weather system that will bring a rain chance Wednesday, especially in the evening into Thursday morning. Models are forecasting an additional 0.50.75 of rainfall possible through those two days.

Schitts Creek actors preview 3rd season of SyFy paranormal series SurrealEstate
In 2015, Sarah Levy and Tim Rozons Schitts Creek characters, Twyla Sands and Mutt Schitt, dated in the Canadian comedys first season.
A decade later, the actors are starring in the third season of paranormal series SurrealEstate, as two real estate agents who specialize in selling metaphysically engaged properties aka haunted houses.
I think what Season 3 has done so well is carry on Season 1 and Season 2, the excitement of both those seasons, as well as the emotional cornerstones that the first two seasons had and the care of the characters, Levy said. What I love so much about this show is that its a scifi show there are supernatural elements to it but its so characterdriven.
New episodes of SurrealEstate air Thursdays at 10 p.m. ET on SyFy and stream the next day on Peacock.

From Carmel to Broadway: Sarah Litzsinger brings Delia to life in Beetlejuice national tour
When Sarah Litzsinger takes the stage as Delia Dietz in the Broadway musical Beetlejuice this week in Indianapolis, it will be more than just another performance. It will also be a homecoming.
The actress is a Carmel native, and her return will be a fullcircle moment since first falling in love with theater at Clowes Memorial Hall as a child.
I was 6 years old when my parents took me to see Annie at Clowes Hall, and thats when I got bitten by the showbiz bug, Litzsinger said. I was mesmerized. I couldnt leave my seat during intermission. I knew I had to be up there one day.
That spark has led Litzsinger to a thriving career, and now, shes bringing her talents to Beetlejuice, where she plays the eccentric Delia.

World stock markets plunge again as Trump doubles down on tariffs
Global stock markets extended a severe plunge Monday, fueled by fears that U.S. tariffs would lead to a global economic slowdown. European and Asian shares saw dramatic losses, the leading U.S. index flirted with bear market territory in premarket trading, and oil prices sagged.
The massive selloff in riskier assets at the start of the trading week follows President Donald Trumps announcement of sharply higher U.S. import taxes and retaliation from China that saw markets fall sharply Thursday and Friday.
