The temperature is on the rise! The winds have shifted and a "heat wave" has approached Eau Claire. While the temperature is still fairly low, we should be rising rather quickly as the afternoon approaches. The skies are still clear for the time being as the high pressure systems moves south. The wind is now coming from the SW, but at relatively low speeds. Overall we have the makings of a very nice day compared to any from the last week.
The forecast for today has a high of 20° F and projected low of 17° F for tonight. The skies are projected to become more cloudy as well as the low pressure system moves in to our region. The chance of snow fall for tonight is around 50%. The wind map below shows the shift that the wind has taken.
My projections of the weather from yesterday seemed to be pretty spot on because of the temperature rise and cloud cover forming. The pressure systems and shifting of the winds were also good indicators of the trends that were to come. Still no snow and I hope that it stays that way!
I project that tomorrow will be overcast due to the low pressure system that is approaching Wisconsin. It's also probable that we will get more snow in the next 24 hours. The doppler radar doesn't show any activity in our area now, but I would keep a keen eye on it over the next 12 hours or so. The overcast should also keep it a little warmer tomorrow as well, so possibly temperatures in the low 20's or high teens. The Jet stream is still running high over the midwest which may mean more crazy weather over the next few days. When all is said and done it will be warmer over the next few days than it has been in a while!
