INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — Temperatures will be much closer to average for this time of year.

This morning:

It is a much colder morning across the area as Canadian high pressure settles in across the Midwest. Temperatures are running about 5 to 10° colder than Monday morning.

Tuesday:

No major problems are expected weather-wise today with clear conditions and lighter winds. Highs will be cooler but much closer to average for this time of year, topping out into the low 50s.

Tuesday night:

A few mid- to high-level clouds will roll through later on tonight, but otherwise we are extremely quiet and chilly with temperatures falling to the mid-30s overnight.

Wednesday: 

Temperatures will warm heading into the midweek, with highs topping out near 60°. A cold front approaching the state will allow for an increase in cloud cover. Clouds will increase through the day and rain chances will return closer to dinner time.

Rain will fill in for the overnight hours. A rumble of thunder can’t be ruled out, but certainly will not be the norm.

Rainfall amounts could reach up to a half an inch around the metro area with higher amounts possible in the southern third of the State.

Thursday:

Some lingering showers across the state for the early morning hours, but much of the day should be dry with decreasing clouds. High temperatures top out into the mid-50s.

7 day forecast:

Dry weather will roll on for the end of the week and at least to start off the weekend. Will be flirting with 60°, which is running about 15 to 18° warmer than average shower and thunderstorm chances. Look to make a comeback as early as Sunday afternoon and evening and could continue for the first few days of next week.

The Indianapolis Colts suffered their third consecutive loss on Sunday, this time to the Buffalo Bills, and have dropped to 4-6 on the season.

While, once again, it certainly wasn’t the desired outcome, particularly on the offensive side of the ball where things were clunky, let’s take a look back at this Week 10 matchup with the best photos from this pivotal divisional game.

Windsor Jewelry owner Greg Bires says his upcoming 70th birthday is driving his decision to close the downtown jewelry store in January.

Bires, Windsor’s owner since 1998, and his wife, Lynn, placed going-out-of-business signs in windows at the store at 16 N. Meridian St., during the weekend.

One sign reads, “Greg and Lynn are retiring!”

“I have eight grandchildren, between Lynn and I, and they all live out of town,” said Bires, who will celebrate his 70th birthday in December. “I’m missing them growing up, which is probably the biggest reason I’m doing this. I want to be able to spend a little time with them before they’re teenagers.”

Sig Asher opened Windsor Jewelry in the bygone Lyric Theater building, 135 N. Illinois St., in 1919. Asher’s son-in-law, Herman Logan, owned the store from 1946 to 1998.

Windsor moved from Illinois Street to its 3,000-square-foot Meridian Street location just south of Monument Circle in 1970. Bires, who grew up in Gary, was hired by Logan to work in jewelry repair in 1984.

Bires eventually learned the retail side of the business and purchased Windsor when Logan retired.

Today, Bires said it would be a longshot for someone to secure funding to buy the business. Choosing a liquidation sale as his best option, Bires said he’s open to selling the “Windsor Jewelry” name to a potential buyer.

The pandemic transformed Windsor Jewelry into a destination store, Bires said. Although fewer people have worked downtown on a daily basis in recent years, Windsor persevered thanks to its history and reputation, he said.

“We’ve developed a lot of relationships over the last 100 years,” Bires said. “We have fifth-generation customers. One of the things I get the most enjoyment out of is when a guy that I sold an engagement ring 25 or 30 years ago brings his son or daughter in for me to sell them an engagement ring. I think that says we did something right.”

Windsor Jewelry is expected to close by mid-January, Bires said.
