Noble, Steuben counties gain yellow ratings INDIANAPOLIS â For the first time since the end of October, Noble and Steuben counties have made it back to a yellow rating for âmoderateâ spread of COVID-19, as the state continues to see weekly improvement. LaGrange and DeKalb counties also showed improvement, but not quite enough to get to a lower grade yet. Both stayed in orange but also saw some improvement in their metrics. The improvement locally matches improvement statewide as now close to a third of all 92 counties are in yellow across the state, which also hasnât happened since the end of October.
